		These same dogs however, may often also feed on refuse and garbage and this is significant in regards to dog transmitted disease. The surplus offspring of this population segment will generally end up entering either the neighborhood/community dog population or that of the feral dog.

	Dogs - Suggestions on removing feral dog
		You are completely on the right track in thinking that this dog should be put down...if it is biting all in the household and just being aggressive with no apparent provocation then there is something neurological going on there.
		By Feral I mean it attacks without reason, isn’t at all social (except to my mother whom it surprisingly hasn’t bitten once), and the such.
		Once a dog tastes blood often they will not cease...Ive dealt with cases like yours where the dog was immediately put to sleep.In such cases as yours the dog was taken from the home after an owner complained.
