Puppy Attacked By Off Leash Dalmation

Jesus poor Brodie poor you.

Did you report the attack? Did the dog that attacked Brodie offer to pay vet fees?

I am not an expert but I would say that the best thing to do is get her back socalising as soon as possible. And it seems you have already done that.

I think that people who do not socalise their dogs that have been attacked, soon after the incidence has occured, end up with the dogs that are scared of everything for the rest of their lives.

People who have had their dogs attacked have every right to feel scared shitless that their dog is going to be attacked again if they take it back out socalizing but dogs can sense how and owner feels and begin they can develop anxiety from sensing the owners anxiety. So when you do go out socalising, as hard as it may be, try not to act any differently then you did before their attack happend.

Poor little Brodie- she is cutie.

Even though you say she is still sociable now, straight after the attack, dont let your concerns drop. It can take a dog a long time to realise what has ahppened and for them to start showing signs of either fear aggression or being very timid around dogs...make sure you put as much into re-socialising her as possible, and make sure you find some big dogs for her to make friends with and encourage her to do so in a controlled environment..

My brothers GSD was attacked by a staffy when he was 4 months, he weas fine with other dogs straight after and was fine with a staffy down at obedience, but it wasnt until a couple months later that he became a little fear aggressive and timid......

I am so sorry to hear that this happened to your dog, its a horrible thing to happen....

The owner of the other dog must feel terrible, and good on you for not condeming her, her dog may have been fine in off leash areas previously and one day just changed its tune without warrant....

Hope your little baby recovers quickly and gets back to her quirky self! She is certainly a cutie and taking the bucket wearing in her stride!
