Jabber, there is NO need to put an aggressive dog down unless she becomes aggressive with poeople, and even you and your family, then the prospects of harm are too dangerous. Simply curtailing her interaction with other dogs and wearing a muzzle when she may be near then should be sufficient. She could also change back to her old sweet self as quickly as she turned aggressive. I've seen that happen more than once.
