Today we had to put a our 4.5 yr old bulldog, Molly, to sleep. Over the last year and a half she had become more and more aggressive before finally biting our 7-yr old son unprovoked.
My wife did a great job getting professional opinions to understand if there was a way to get her out of her funk. Last week she met with a specialist for bulldogs and we were told we absolutely must per her to sleep. She said it was if she attacks but a matter of time before she does. With 4 kids in the house we had no real other options. We tried for months to find another home but nobody wanted to deal with the aggression issues.
It was definitely harder than I thought today. More sympathy from feeling bad for her than anything else. Our 5-yr old is a little bummed because they have been together since he was 1.
