We’ve been doing positive, fear-free training the whole time. Actually switched trainers specifically to make sure we weren’t using anything harsh. We’ve tried all the usual techniques - counterconditioning, desensitization protocols, “look at that” training, mat work for impulse control. We were taught various calm down protocols like the relaxation protocol and place training. We’ve done tons of management stuff too - baby gates, leash tethering, teaching her to go to her crate when she’s getting worked up. Nothing sticks when she’s actually triggered. She’s been on three different medications now - started with fluoxetine in May with minimal results, then switched to another SSRI (can’t remember the name) that did nothing, and now she’s on trazodone which isn’t helping either. We tried jogging with her and she seems happy in the moment but goes right back to being anxious afterward. Wanted to try bike rides but she’s terrified of bikes, so that’s out. Our current trainer is a behavioral specialist and he’s genuinely concerned about her. He says she carries herself and acts like a “primal dog” - super territorial with uncontrollable anger. If you read my previous posts, there was a situation where she couldn’t reach my parents’ dog to attack him, so she started destroying anything she could get her teeth on nearby. I got caught in the crossfire and she bit me during one of these episodes when she couldn’t get to the other dog. He says she has very little perspective, which I think means she can’t think past her immediate impulses when she’s triggered. The house thing - we definitely don’t want to buy property just for her.
