We adopted Gypsy (female) about 1 year ago from a humane society. She was about 6 months old and had been a stray all her life. I also noticed scars from old bites and some newer scabs actually just healing over so it is obvious the kind of life she had. At the time, we had one other rescue (male.) We have since adopted a 3rd rescue (male.) They all LOVE each other....!!! Gypsy LOVES EVERYONE and everything...animal, man, cat you name it....but unless any passing stranger allows us to sit with them and their dog for 10 minutes at least, their is just a 'freakout session' by Gypsy. 9 out of 10 people DO NOT want to be anywhere near her when she is freaking out so I can't get them to stop for even 10 minutes! We have tried just about everything to help with Gypsy's fear aggression towards any other animals.... If she can be near them for even 10 minutes, she is happy as all get out. But seperate her from the strange dog/animal again and she goes right back to her horrible fear aggression as though she never even saw the animal before....till another 10 minutes of meeting the very same animal -close up and 'calming down' happensagain. Walks are impossible...and I mean it. She is a complete freak even if she smells another dog with 1/2 mile!! She has the most piercing scream you go deaf completely-- and her barking is horrible- people think WE are doing soemthing to her and they look at us in amazment like, "WHAT are you doing to that DOG!!?" Even though they are looking at the same thing we are right there...which is Gypsy, freaking out while our other 2 dogs are trying to enjoy the walk--- ahe even has them doing it now --somewhat. Any suggestions?
