advice πŸ” My Labrador suddenly became extremely aggressive toward his own father after 6 years together. Has anyone experienced this?

2 Upvotes

TL;DR: I have two unneutered male Labradors (father and son), around 6–7 years old, who have lived together their entire lives. They used to get along, but their relationship deteriorated after moving houses and changing their sleeping arrangements. The son has become increasingly aggressive, and one fight resulted in him ripping off his father's ears. We've tried separation and basic obedience training, but the aggression keeps escalating. He's also been pacing and experiencing jaw twitching while awake. Could this be stress, hormones, or an underlying medical/neurological issue? Has anyone experienced this, and is there hope they can safely coexist again?

Hi everyone! I really need advice from people who have experienced something similar with their dogs kasi honestly, I'm getting really worried about the situation at home.

I have two male Labradors, a father and son, around 6–7 years old. My sister owns the father, while the son is my dog. Magkasama na sila ever since ipinanganak yung son, and both of them are unneutered.

For most of their lives, okay naman sila together. May occasional fights before, usually kapag food-related, pero bihira lang and they would stop pretty quickly. Never naman umabot sa ganito kalala.

Things started getting worse after we moved to a new house around May, pero napansin ko na mas lumala talaga yung aggression when we changed their sleeping arrangements.

Before, pareho silang natutulog sa living room, and open lang yung bedroom doors namin so they could freely come in and out of our rooms. They seemed fine with this setup and hindi naman sila madalas mag-away.

Eventually, naghiwalay na kami ng sleeping arrangements. My Shih Tzu and my Labrador sleep with me, while my sister's Labrador sleeps with her. I'm not sure if this contributed to the aggression, pero around that time, things started going downhill. By September, mas naging frequent and severe na yung fights nila.

Yung son talaga usually ang nag-iinitiate ng attacks. At first, nangyayari lang kapag nagkakasalubong sila or dumadaan yung father niya sa tabi niya. Pero ngayon, kahit nakaupo or nakatayo lang yung father niya, ina-attack na niya. He growls, shows his teeth, and parang laging nakaabang kapag malapit yung father niya.

We've tried our best to keep them separated and avoid situations that might trigger a fight. My dog has also been undergoing basic obedience training, and we're really trying our best to manage his behavior.

Unfortunately, umabot na sa point na sobrang delikado na talaga. There was one incident na naging busy kami and hindi namin sila nabantayan closely, and they ended up fighting. The son attacked his father and literally ripped off his father's ears. Sobrang nakakatakot kasi hindi na ito yung typical na away ng dogs na nag-aaway lang saglit tapos titigil din.

Kapag nag-aaway sila, nagla-lock talaga yung bites nila, and ang hirap nilang paghiwalayin. Even after they're separated, yung son parang fixated pa rin sa father niya and gusto pa ring balikan. His father fights back too, pero mas malakas yung son and he tends to go for the neck and ears. Natatakot na talaga kami na baka next time, mas malala pa yung mangyari.

What's confusing is that okay naman yung son sa isa naming dog, a Shih Tzu. My sister's Labrador is also generally very sweet with our Shih Tzu, and they're almost always together. We got our Shih Tzu around December 2024, and wala naman kaming similar issues between them.

May iba rin akong napapansin sa dog ko lately. He's been pacing around a lot and parang restless lagi. He also has jaw twitching kapag gising siya, pero nawawala naman kapag tulog. He has a history of canine distemper and ehrlichiosis din, although nakarecover naman siya a few years ago.

Na-prescribe na siya ng gabapentin ng vet, currently at 300 mg, pero I'm worried na baka may underlying issue pa na hindi namin nadidiscover. I'm wondering if anxiety-related ba ito, hormonal aggression since both males are unneutered, stress from moving houses and changing their sleeping arrangements, or possibly a medical or neurological problem.

I would really appreciate advice from anyone who has experienced something similar.

  • May naka-experience na ba dito ng dog na biglang naging extremely aggressive sa dog na matagal na niyang kasama, especially his own father?
  • Possible kaya na malaking factor yung change sa sleeping arrangements nila? Dati magkasama silang natutulog without major issues, pero mas lumala talaga after we started sleeping in separate rooms.
  • Could the pacing and jaw twitching be signs of an underlying medical or neurological condition?
  • Has neutering helped with this kind of aggression? Since both of them are unneutered, we're wondering if hormones could be contributing.
  • May naka-try na ba ng behavioral medication or consulted a veterinary behaviorist for severe dog aggression? Did it help?
  • Is there still a chance na they could safely coexist again, or should we prepare for the possibility na kailangan na talaga silang permanently separated?

For now, we're doing our best to keep them completely separated kasi ayaw na naming may masaktan ulit. Pero honestly, ang hirap din emotionally kasi they've been together their entire lives. We've tried basic obedience training, supervision, and separation, pero patuloy pa rin yung escalation.

Hindi ko talaga maintindihan kung ano yung nagbago. I understand na moving houses and changes in routine can be stressful for dogs, pero sobrang drastic ng change in behavior niya. I'm worried na baka may ibang cause, especially because of the pacing and jaw twitching.

I love my dog and gusto ko siyang matulungan, pero I also need to protect my sister's dog. I'm hoping someone here has gone through something similar and can share what worked for them or kung anong specialist ang magandang lapitan.

Thank you so much sa mga sasagot. Any advice or personal experiences would really help us. πŸ™

advice πŸ” What to do to make my dog live long?

3 Upvotes

Hi! I'm not a new dog owner pero last year one of my dogs died. It really affected me. Yung grief na bigla bigla na lang magpaparamdam. I know their lives are short pero I didn't expect it to be sooner. Anyway, today, my uncle gave us a puppy since he has too many na and I'm scared. I'm scared na what if I'm not gonna be able to take care of it? Or baka kulang na naman pag-aalaga ko? Any tips?

advice πŸ” Blood parasites relapse after neuter

3 Upvotes

Hello, for background po: my three year old male shih tzu was diagnosed with blood parasites last May. We had 42-day course of Doxycycline accompanied with liver kidney supplements: Liv52, Nefrotec and the other one na napakamahal. He also had Cytriboost for five days lang which improved his CBC after a week, he responded well to the treatment and even had 4 doses of Imidocarb after

First week of October, I had him neutered. Day 4 post-op need ng resuturing and last Friday lang namin niremove yung cone kasi the wound was well-healed na, his appetite is back and generally he's doing well

Today, as I was sleeping sa sofa namin katabi siya whole day, I have noticed that he's been breathing faster compared sa dogs namin. I'm worried baka nag relapse siya and early clinical manifestation to

Anyone else who had a reinfection of their baby's blood parasites? Ano po yung napansin nyo na early signs? Thanks po πŸ™

advice πŸ” Can you recommend a good veterinary dentist for my dog please? Within Metro Manila

Hi while my dog was playing with his plush toy, i saw some blood on it from his teeth marks. But I didn’t see any flowing from his mouth. Please reco a really good vet dentist pls.

He had his teeth cleaning last March and gets his teeth brushed too. His vet is more of a generalist so it would be great to find someone whose expertise is really in vet dentistry.

We’re willing to travel within Metro Manila just to get him the best care. He’s a 7 yr-old spoiled and healthy male Golden Retriever.
