once a dog reaches such a submissive state it can rarely go into aggressive mode .....so the person abusing it can continue doing so without fear of retaliation.....usually by then the dog will pee or crap in fear.
ohhhh ...sad to hear that. As I mentioned to RT this William was a real nice guy with a cheerful disposition. I guess Sunny was too from the looks of things.
Its a downer for me this piece of news....poor guy looks like the dice were loaded against him from the start with this kind of family...
