Story
We rescued Peanut almost 8 years ago when he was around 2 or 3. For years he was a cuddly, quirky dog. Over the past few years, he has become increasingly adverse to leaving his pen and going outside. As a result, he began using the bathroom in the house. Also when our pet sitter tried to get him out of the closet to go outside, he hit her. He also bit me when I tried to clip his nails. And most recently tried to bite my son when my husband put Peanut on our sons lap. He bit my husband instead. Currently, Peanut stays in his pen and goes outside to potty and then wants to quickly return to his pen. The vet informed us that Peanut's aggression is most likely a result of pain or sickness. I gave him gabapentin, but it doesn't seem to do much for him. I feel that he couldn't possibly be happy living in a pen. We are strongly considering euthanasia, but wanted to give him one more chance.
