He is a menace.

I don't know how to deal with him anymore. My dog who I've had for 6 years. He is a mixed Maltese breed and he keeps randomly attacking me. I'm tired of his bs he started acting like this to me ever since I had to cut his hair last time. Ever since then he hates me.

Okay, I had a Maltese, also, and he developed the same aggressive habits. They do NOT like to be the only dog, and they HATE to be alone.

The only thing that will cure him is another dog.

@4meAndyou I've thought about getting another little dog before. Maybe he'll have someone to play with rather than being alone whenever I'm not home.

@disturbedchicken It's a peculiarity of the breed. They become aggressive and want to be the top dog, even over their human. If they have another dog with them, for some reason they calm down.
