I have a 3 year old Doberman. He has always been the sweetest, most loving dog. He has never bitten anyone.
Last night he was lying next to me on the bed, I reached over and put my arm around him and gave him a hug like I often do. He started a low growl. I thought at first that maybe he had heard a noise outside. Then I realized something was wrong and started to move, but then he leaped on me and bit my ear, he damn near tore off my lower earlobe. I rolled off the bed and he jumped off the bed and started growling and snapping at me. I was literally cowering in the corner, I mean this is a 90lb dog. Then he just stopped. ****in blood was everywhere. I ordered him into his crate and he went right in.
Today he is acting normal, licking on me and begging for attention and being sweet like always.
I really feel hurt that he would do something like this to hurt me. I just don't understand it.
