she had puppy's and then we got her fixed, we were told to let a dog have a lot of puppy's then get them fixed and this will calm them down , well we done this and now she is worse, she hates some people, and is no longer friendly like she useto be, she will go the good people but lick the bad ones, is it possible that by getting her fixed like i have, was a bad thing to do, as she useto b so kind and loveing

It was not a vet that told me this to everyone who thinks that, its just what i was told, and this happened a few years ago, and she has gotten worse,

I have NO CLUE who told you that, because it is NOT true and a totally dumb idea. Vets do not tell people that.
Now, get the dog some training...like obedience class.

First off, I won't chide you for letting her have puppies before she got fixed because everyone else has.
She is probably just moody having no estrogen anymore. She should adjust in the next month or two. If she doesn't I would contact the vet as your dog may be depressed and need anti-depressants to feel better.

I can't imagine what kind of vet would tell you to make your dog have lots of puppies, it just doesn't make sense. She's probably angry about having her puppies taken away from her. You should give her 4-6 weeks to allow the hormones out of her body before worrying, though.

my dog went thru a month being moody after she was fixed , it was her 1st litter to , if she gets worse or you think she needs a med to keep her calm then you definitely should talk to your vet about it
