Vet thinks puppy should be put down!! Help!!!

[winda88]

Please correct me if I'm wrong......These are the things I was told...
1. True aggression and dominance issues rarely materialize until a pup is around say 6 months old (before that and you MOST LIKELY have typical but sometimes stubborn normal puppy behavior)
2. Even true aggression is something that can USUALLY be managed through proper training (trained professional with experience handling aggressive dogs)
3. No matter how well your dog is trained by a "professional trainer", unless you are able (time and technique) to follow through with that training consistently you are wasting your energy.

Sounds to me like these vets are either nuts and should turn in their licenses or there is sooooo much more to the story .

In "people" medicine there is a saying (I'm paraphrasing) "Uncommon manifestations of common problems are more likely than common manifestations of uncommon problems." Applied to this situation: You most likely have a more difficult NORMAL puppy rather than a typical aggressive/dominant, needs-to-be-put-down puppy. Does that make sense?
