Try calling the dog whisperer...or every time he does something you don't approve of roll a piece of newspaper and spank him on the butt or the nose and tell him not to do it and tell him what he done wrong. That way it wouldn't hurt you to do it and it wouldn't cause him any pain, he would just be ashamed and will learn not to do it. So you would be able to keep the dog and care for your child the same time. But i understand that you had to let him go to better his life and yours and it was worth doing....So good luck maybe you can get a next dog who is less aggressive.

Thanks... sadly we are not going to get another dog until we are done having kids and they are older. I'm so sad.

NOOOOOO!!!! This is horrible advice...the dog doesnt learn to be ashamed, he learns to be fearful!
