I have three dogs (a chihuahua, a doberman, and a dalmation) and everytime they see another dog, they go up to it and attack it. They have been doing this for the past week, and have badly injured 14 dogs, and killed at least three dogs. Even if I keep them secured inside or outside, the three of them always get out and gang up on other dogs.

How do I get my dogs to stop this?

Sadly, you cannot change what you have allowed to happen. It is you not those dogs who is solely responsible for the horrible deaths and injuries that have been inflicted on those poor animals.
You have broken the law in many ways. You have allowed your dogs to run loose. You have not contained them nor made any proactive decisions in order to prevent this. I don't know how you have been securing your dogs but clearly is not working. You have broken many hearts over your recklessness. I hope you can live with that. I do hope that you have done everything in your power to pay the vet expenses and make apologies to the families of these dogs.
I do think one of several things will happen. All 3 of your dogs will be put down. You will go to jail for allowing it to happen multiple times. An adult or child will be severely
injured trying to save their dog from these attacks. You will be to blame and no one else.
How can you live with yourself knowing that you are putting peoples lives in jeopardy with these 3 loose cannons. They are no less dangerous than a loaded gun and you are not discriminate in where you point it.
I honestly do not think that any amount of training will help your dogs now. If you attempt to train and fix the problem and If your training fails how can you honestly explain your intentions. Do you value the lives of people less than your dogs? It seems like you do not value either reading your question.
I wouldn't wait on putting these dogs down either. Chances are you will go to jail. There is whats called a "One Bite Rule" your dogs had their day. You better get an attorney and figure out how you can reduce an imminent sentence and stiff fines. This also does not rule out personal lawsuit cases.
This all could have been prevented. There is not much you can do once you have let this go on and on.

Do the dogs get along with each other? Is this new behavior? I find it hard to believe they were fine until a week ago & then went on a rampage. Something must have changed in their routine.
If they are violent by themselves,& as uncontrollable as you have made them out to be, then they may need to be put down. If they are okay when they are not around eachother, then find then new homes where they won't be together. You could try going to a dog trainer with them, but I'm not sure what good that will do at this point.
And be prepared for lawsuits if these dogs really have hurt & killed other dogs.

The fact that the owners of these three dogs killed by your dogs haven't taken your irresponsible butt to court by now is pure luck on your part. If I was an owner of one of those dogs you would be paying through the nose to make sure I was taken care of financially, emotionally and whatever else.
You have alot of nerve keeping dogs like that. you KNOW they are a menace, why the hell do you keep dogs like that around? How do you look at yourself in the mirror everyday knowing that your dogs caused headache and heartache for a family and children who probably had a pet that they love dearly. That is dispicable!
Put those dogs down or keep just one. Obviously when your dogs get together they are like bullies on a playground. BEFORE SOMEONE REALLY DOES TAKE YOU TO COURT!

Troll...another example of her goofy questions.
My dog poops to newt! WHY???
Every time I say "NEWT" in a really squeaky voice, my Chihuahua goes diarrhea and my Dalmation runs away! I don't understand why! Does anyone know what I can do to help???
My chihuahua has pooped all over the back porch now. HUH?
How often does anyone yell NEWT in a high pitched squeaky voice and find their dog losing its' bowels? Funny stuff though. You have a good imagination.
If this B.S actually happened, you wouldn't have time to post here. The owners would have you in jail or 6 feet below with the other dogs you allege to be responsible for killing. The laughter is killing me!!!

this may sound bad but you have to put them to sleep...or else you will be banned from keeping dogs!!!!!!!

I have 3 dogs myself and one of them is aggressive towards other , but when we have company i put him away and i don't put him in situations where he could get hurt or hurt some one else. I love my dogs very much but i also know how they all act around others so i take precautions ...... You should consider the same .....before you have a lawsuit

On the off chance that you're not a troll and making this up (with your other questions, I'm not 100% sure), you need to consider putting these dogs down before the police come knocking at your door.

Sounds like you are a bad pack leader. Better get some leadership skills and fast because you're likely to be sued very soon. Try some of cesar milan's people education for dogs tapes here http://www.dogpsychologycenter.com/

Sounds like they have gotten into a pack mode. Before they turn on you, or attack a human, you'd better get rid of them.

So what is your question? If this is true, prepare to lose those dogs. You are legally responsible for them. Better call an attorney.
