Note the color and body type. Not a field bred dog.
Now the number 3 biter.
If you want a golden, you’ll have to hunt very hard to find a good one. And be willing to wait.
I guarantee you that this dog’s owner got him because the dog was light-colored and “calm.” Breeding for calmness, as we have seen, messes with the brain chemistry of what are generally good tempered and biddable dogs. Goldens are low fear and low aggression, but adding low activity leads to higher chances for aggression and seizures.
This is why you cannot adjust a working breed’s temperament to fit the needs of modern society. You are going to push the biology of the animal too far.
This is pretty serious food aggression. I’ve seen and handled mild cases that were easily overcome, but this case looks serious. Perhaps the reason why the dog is fed in the cage????
He’s fed in the crate because he’s food aggressive.
Wow, that’s scary to watch. Is that similar to the dysfunction some dogs have, where they will attack their own front feet because they’re close to the food bowl?
It may be similar; however, this can (in theory) be modified through training. The dog that attacked its own legs had a severe neurological condition, related to seizures. So these two problems may be related.
