    I totally agree with this and was wondering about it. It is instinct and they are going to go after the rabbits if they run.

    It took me two weeks just to be able to touch her face, her ears, check her eyes, and always had her mouthing. I have permanent scars on my hands.

    Something was not right with her. And she's not a fit for any family. Just think if she went home to a house full of kids?

    Ok....100% honesty here-NO JUDGEMENT.

    What you have just described above is typical zoomie lab behavior. Honestly. I'm not being b*tchy here or judgemental in the least.
    What you have just described is The Zoomies.
    My girls are 4 & 5 and they still do this all the time. When they zoom, sometimes they zoom right at me and I have been knocked over in the past. They get a crazed look in their eyes, they are insane right at that moment. Sometimes in their zooms they will jump at me-I put a firm, hard knee into their chest and knock their ass to the ground. But they still zoom. It's not aggression-it's the way labs express PURE JOY. Just this past weekend my son was wrestling with Moka....she is the gentlest creature on Earth-she does not have a mean bone in her body. But they were playing, he got her going really good-she was play biting with him and got him in the nose...he ended up with a bloody nose (My son is 20 years old). It was not aggressive, he knows and I know.....it was rough play.

    If you really consider that to be aggression, then I ask you not to get a lab puppy even from a breeder, otherwise, we'll see you back here with the same issue right around when that pup hits 7-8 months.

    Yeah, good luck with curbing the natural prey instincts in your dog. You really think if your rabbits are out and your dog wants to eat one that you'll be able to stop it?
    Give it a shot-I can almost guarantee that would get you a bite or two.

    I have a feeling your dog is going to be raw fed by HIS choice.

    Sorry, not PETA...just a animal loving person who volunteers in rescue and animal welfare. Good luck trying to keep your rabbits safe from a prey driven hunting dog.

    What?

    Your posts are staring to make less and less sense.

    "Hmmm, just like you are?"
    I don't know what you are trying to say here.

    It's not a PETA mentality. I firmly believe that there are dogs out there that are not right and deserve to be put down. If my girls ever bit someone (other than a stragner breaking into my home or threatening me) I would shoot them in the head myself. If you could look back and see, you would see that I am one of the least tolerant people when it comes to aggressive dogs.
    It has nothing to do with PETA and I do not believe that every dog deserves a chance or deserves to be alive. But I do think that Lilly's behavior was misinterpreted by an admittedly first time lab owner.
