Hi there - i am looking for a little bit of advice regarding our 8 month old male rex, Smokey.
We have had Smokey since he was a couple of months old and since day one has has not liked being handled and has been quite aggressive, grunting,
biting and kicking out - as such picking him up is quite an ordeal.
We thought his temperment would improved once neutered but if anything he is worse, he will attack and nip/bite when you put you hands in to feed or change his litter tray and picking him up or getting him into his pet carrier for trips to the vet or the boarding hotel is near on impossible.
We hoped to get him a friend once he was neutered as we feel he may well be lonely but to be honest i am afraid to do so...... does anyone have any thoughts/advice?
Thanks in advance
