Question

I have a 2 y/o spayed 135 lb Rottweiler who recently killed a 10 week old yorkie. she is food aggressive and is jealous if someone is playing with me. My vet recommended I put her down believing her jealousy issue will worsen leading to future injuries. One on one she is a people person very loving.

Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! If you want to keep Izzy then you need to invest in a Veterinary Behaviorist or pay for intense training for you and the dog. You have many years together and she is way too big to be this aggressive. Killing dogs is a lead in to biting children and people. If you do not take the reigns and try to control her then I agree with your Vet. You can't live your life isolated due to your dogs aggressive behavior. I wish you the best!
