[QUOTE="SuZir, post: 577048, member: 14557"] Oh, so sad. I'm sorry you had to say goodbye to third four-legged friend in so short time. Betsy's aggression does sound typical for pain induced aggression. Ear infection could cause that but some dogs I have heard of who had that type of aggression were in fact having spondylosis. It's in fact quite common, there are breeds in which more than half of the dogs develop it (boxer being worst I think.) For some it isn't causing so much pain, for some it does. For many it causes pain only now and then. Dog with it doesn't really limp or show other obvious signs of discomfort and because it can cause high, sudden pain, it may more easier to cause aggressive behaviour because dog doesn't really know what causes the pain and may think it is the thing closest to it and attack.
