I saw this post this morning on my local Craigslist:

(I put some paragraphs in to make it easier to read)

Hi my fellow craigslisters. i am back and the problem has gotten worst. I came to you last with my problems about my pomeranian/chihuahua. Well now i have to get rid of him he tried to..well he did bite my son the other day. We tried everything your guy suggested .

We can not take him to groomer because he will bite. Two of my neighborhood Vets will not see him any more with out a muzzle. HE is not a dumb dog he starts to growl and snarl when he sees us coming with the muzzle. So now he can not go to the vet or the groomer. I have spend over 250 in trying to get him trained. Myself my wife and my kids walk him with our other dog twice a days.

He pees on everything. We can not try to get fixed because we can not get him to the Vet ie the muzzle thing.He hate anyone who does not live in my house. Other family members have came over hunderds of times and he always tries to bite them.

So now we have to keep him locked in his kennel 80% of the day. I do not think it is fair to my other dog. so we keep her tied in the garage as well . and believe me she hates it. Both have been raised in the house since they were puppies.

But to make a long story short we love him. It is impossible for me to take him to the pound he is like one of the family. I fear if i take him to a PAWS type organization the will kill him if he bites them. Which he probably will.

Can any one help me out. Does any have a small dog who needs a play mate. And maybe can do a better job than i can. If not by friday he will have to leave my house.( my wife has ordered it if though she says she cant do it because she thinks she will cry.) i will post pictures tommorrow. Even though i have spent a lot of money trying to fix this problem. i do not want a dime back. i feel that the money time and effort was worth every penny. i just want the best for my dog a good place to live and enjoy life

Unbelievable! This dog has a bite history. It has bitten their son. It has bitten their groomer. It has bitten their Vet. It has bitten other family members that come over. It is crated the majority of the day. The other dog is kept in the garage as well to "be fair." It is not allowed at the Vet without a muzzle, but the owners won't put a muzzle on it because the dog growls at them when it sees the muzzle.

BUT.....it's a small dog so maybe someone's dog "needs a playmate?" What the heck? I am sure you can imagine what would happen and the responses this person would get if "Pomeranian/Chihuahua" was changed to "pit bull."
