I just rescued another dog a few days ago, she is an aussie mix, 2 years old.

Her previous owner couldn't keep her where she lived and had to give her up, and couldn't find a home for her, and didn't want to take her to the pound, so I took her in, I had them meet me at my boyfriend's house since it was a closer drive for the people to bring her.

And I like this dog a lot, I've only had her for 4 days now, but the only thing is she is extremely aggressive towards other animals.

I was told she was good with other non-aggressive dogs, and was total sweetheart.

Well first day we got her she attacked my boyfriend's dog, I know I wasn't to supposed to jump in but I did, Sadie kept chasing Charlie around the house, at first it seemed like they were just playing around, and things seemed fine until Sadie jumped on Charlie and started attacking him, they were both fighting pretty bad, I immediately grabbed Sadie's collar and pulled her off, but then my boyfriends dog didn't have a collar on so no one could grab him and he came back around and jumped back at her causing her collar to leave my hands, then she went after him again and was on top of him, my boyfriend's mom was screaming "Stop it!" and that's when I jumped in and I wrestled her off of him, but then Charlie came back around again and jumped at her, and she leaped up and jumped back at him and accidentally bit and punctured my right arm about 8 times, I got up and grabbed her trying to pull her off because she was just going at him, and there were no objects that we could distract them with, this happened in my boyfriend's house, in his small living room, Sadie had a strong grip on Charlie's neck, finally I managed to get her off of him, and I flew back with her into the fireplace, I broke her fall but hurt my back and leg, then Finally my boyfriend's mom grabbed her dog and took him in the room, and I had to drag Sadie outside, my arm was bleeding and swelling, but I had to take Sadie away from the house, I walked bare footed to a nearby park with her and sat with her until everything calmed down, Charlie ended up being okay, there was no blood, just a lot of slobber, I was scared that he was badly hurt, I had no idea she was going to act like that, my arm was hurting pretty bad, it went numb for awhile and kept swelling until my boyfriend brought me some ice, and then it started going down.

It was a huge commotion that night, and I don't ever want that to happen again, but unfortunately it almost did, I had spent the night at my boyfriend's house with Sadie in the room with me and away from the other animals.

My boyfriend's mother drove me home in the morning, and at first sight when Sadie saw my husky Shaddie, she wanted to attack her, luckily I had Sadie on a leash this time, I had to yell for my dad to grab my husky and take her in the back, because my husky was curious and wanted to meet Sadie, she kept coming foward and closer to her, I kept saying "Get back!" and she kept coming, while Sadie was going crazy on the leash trying to go after her, I immediately took Sadie into the house, and now have to keep her confined to my room all day because she absolutley cannot be around my other pets, she has tried attacking my husky and my rescued chihuahua, and my cat.

The person said she was good with cats, my dogs are non-aggressive, and that's what she said Sadie got along with.

I don't want to return her, as even though she is this way I really like her as she is good with people, she loves everyone she meets, but its just other animals that she has a huge problem with. None of my other dogs are this way.

I'm wondering if behavioral training would help her at all?
I want to be able to let her run around our yard, and get along with my other dogs, when I told the person that Sadie would have a playmate she said "Oh Sadie will love it, she needs a good playing buddy"
but obviously not Sadie can't stand other dogs.

What can I do to help this dog? I don't want to give her up already I want to try and make it work.

And watching the dog whisperer doesn't help, I learn a lot but what he does doesn't seem to work for me, I probably actually NEED him there to help out with her, other than that.. even though I have his books... it doesn't help me.
Oh and Sadie is up to date on all of her shots and is spayed/fixed.

I love dogs-always have..was raised with them, etc. Anyways last year my husband said I could recuse a dog- I saved a Jack Russel from being euthanized. 9 months later he ran away and we never found him. So I rescued a chihuahua mix a few months later. He was the perfect dog! Until he bit one my neighbor's children. It broke my heart but I had to release him to Animal control. Why am I having bad luck with dogs? I just want to provide a loving home for a pooch and I would spoil it rotten. Am I rescuing the wrong breeds? Thanks.
I will add that I have children and the jack russel jumped our fence which is why he took off.
I had no choice but to release him to animal control..he broke the skin and the parents were involved. It broke my heart and he never did that before.
The entire family was in the backyard with the Pip when he jumped and we chased him for blocks. The chi (Rusty) was in the house with me and my daughter brought in her friend and he just went after her (I had him for 6 months and he never did that and in fact I had him professionally trained 1 on 1).
I never left my dogs unsupervised..ask my neighbors they were like my children. They even went on car rides with me. Pip had never tried to jump the fence before..he just happened to do that one time and that was it..he was gone even though we were all outside. Rusty was more of a terrier/chihuahua so he was never snippy before. I don't feel irresponsible towards the care of these animals.

I am looking for a chihuahua puppy for sale?

Female preferred, but male is great too.

Thanks a ton!
Thanks :]

I have looked at many Shelter Sites and Rescue ones, too. I look almost everyday, Yet have not been able to find a young one that is good with other animals, See, I have a cat, too.

I did have a dog, who recently got killed by three pit-bulls while out in our yard.

I know about the puppy mills and such, I have several dog/chihuahua books, but thank you

i've been looking for a pit bull for some time and i found a staffy mix at a local rescue that needs a home. he's 1 1/2 old bridle and white (which i'm partial to) but i want to make sure i could provide a good home for him. he's been temperment tested with kids (i dont have any), animals (gets along great with all animals), and people. he would be the only dog and would be inside and outside with supervision. i have a 6 foot fenced yard and he would never be let off leash outside the fence. i've been pre-approved to get the dog if i want him. i really like him but want to make sure i can give him the best home! i've had other dogs in the past (chihuahuas, doxies, coc*** spaniels, bassett hounds, beagles, mutts) so this wouldnt be my first dog, but it would be my first bully breed

I have this two year old chihuahua that is scared of toys... I bought a loofa dog (those long creepy dogs with a huge smile) and he freaks out and runs away. I know why he is afraid - my sister was playing with him one day and made the toy (it was a stuffed dog with bulging eyes) attack him. She made growling noises and made it chase after him. Now I can't get him to play with anything and it breaks my heart since he used to adore them. Now the only toys I have had with him are stuffed animals (mostly stuffed dogs) and haven't tried any other toy because they are all ugly. haha Like he cares. But anyway, was wondering if someone had some sort of technique that works.
