i want my boyfriend to get rid of his dog
The constant cleaning continues but thats all we can do. He can sleep through her barks on the weekend while I cant, (light sleeper) he doesnt clean up after her, when she bit my daughters hand because she once again got excited (my boyfriend lets Mulan bite on his hand ever since she was a baby baby) he doesnt take her out in the morning before he goes to work so I end up being woken up by Mulans high pitched bark/screams. He said he would be sitting in his recliner and the dog was on the couch. I am a dog lover too, but Ive never treated my dog like a human nor did my dog take presidency over any human. The problem is he got a hunter way and I KNOW its not the dog but I look at the dog and I cant get past the colouring, its too similar! My husband says that hitting our Pitt/American bull dog puppy is okay because he is driving him crazy especially when my husband is trying to work. I tell my mother to stay married to this man means I will never have another pet, which I greatly dislike that thought, but I know my spouse will turn it into a human rather than respecting the species for what God has created. Its been a month since Ive written and my girl friend and I broke up. Its to the point I have to watch him with everything he does. My leather sofa was covered with a twin comforter. I just feel gross All the time. Life is hard enough without adding anything else to the equation. He compliments the dog and acts like its his actual girlfriend. It would be one thing if he would actually take of it instead of just thinking it is a novelty and play toy. The problem is that my boyfriend for the most part responds with yelling horribly at him.

Before when we werent living together, my partner would allow him on his bed, cuddle with him, he peed twice on the bed, and has a foot fungal smell to him (some bacteria in his skin he is taking antibiotics for) that made it smell of feet and death; this is all I had to endure prior to moving in together. He said he couldnt give up the dogs. Thats what Im saying. As it is, he would come if I said I really wanted some company, but would make it abundantly clear that he doesnt like the dog and would take no pleasure in the experience making me feel miserable. If he took the time to seek a trainer, and learn how to maintain a dog, i would support him. I have been seeing a man for almost 3 years now. Is asking him to find him the dog a new home too much? The dogs get along great together too. Easy for me really. Choosing any dog over your spouse/ love makes you a crazy and horrible person.

The worst part is that Ive really held back on my feelings to him and when I do start to express my frustration, he can become quite angry and the dog is immediately placed on the highest pedestal.

Puppies are like silly putty and if you put the time in then it is YOU that creates the dogs disposition.

He is resentful towards me since I have tried to work with him on discipline. He says I should be happy with the one dog I have now, and where i appreciate him allowing the dog to live with us, I cannot shake the feeling of being incomplete.

He said that was just the nature of the breed and we couldnt do anything about it even though I absolutely HATE a wild dog jumping all over me when I first come home :-( The truth is, he just couldnt stand to see/hear his dog whining during the training (like keeping him on a leash when people came over until he calmed down), and would give in, and when I tried to keep it up, would get mad at ME.
