My husband purchased a dog within a week of us getting married. I understand having pets as I grew up with a dog. He works and drives about 80 hrs a week and has been working like crazy since he got the dog over a year ago so I took care of a puppy who ate everything in my house and crapped everywhere. It barks all day in the yard and never listens to me. I walked it every day and spent my weekends going to useless dog training classes as she only listens to my husband. The dog very cute too and this is not the dogs fault. I know he's a dog lover but he never has energy for me but can take the dog everywhere, kiss the dog before me and play with her when he comes home from work and kiss her in the morning before he gives me a kiss. He rolls around on the ground with it all the time, likes it laying on his bare chest, always has it sitting on his lap and cuddling it and kissing it. He pits it against me. I want time with him without the dog and he calls me jealous. I take care of a dog that I don't even want. He doesn't treat it like a pet but rather a girlfriend. It's gross and I think it's dirty when it's all over him. I resent it so much. He always wants quality time with his dog but never me. The truth is that within a year he has maybe walked the dog 3 times and that's only because I asked him to go for a walk with me then he wants to bring the dog then I say forget it as I want some of his time without the dog, then he ends up leaving me behind and takes the dog for a walk and I'm on my own again. He has cleaned up the dog poo in the yard maybe twice since the dog came. If I saw any of this before I married him I would not want to be with him at all. I feel tricked and I am really resentful. I don't know if I can handle 12 more years till it dies. Am I crazy?
7 Important Dog Training Tips For You
Recommended Answer:nope, your husband has issues and no offense, but the dog doesn't respect you bc you don't respect the dog. You better treat that dog like a dog and correct it when it gets out of hand.
From Simple Dogs to Guard Dogs - How Guard Dog Training is Done?
- no this is what you need to do right now he has a dog and you are taking care of it so he doesn't have any responsibility with it at all from here on out give him all the responsibility with it until he starts doing it
- People who don't take care of pets always love them to death.
- That's bad. Maybe you should be a furry and see how he reacts. At least, that might get the message across.
- No,your not crazy.
- What kind of dog?
- A dog should not be bought if it cannot be raised properly - its your husbands dog, he should look after it! As the years go on, your dog is going to end up more and more unmanageable. Tell him to get his act together and teach the dog properly, or else hes going to have to find it a new home.
You're the one who has to deal with it barking and not listening to you.
And the reason your relationship with the dog is not good (apart from the fact you have to fight for affection) is because the dog obviously doesnt see you as an alpha.
Apart from the dog issue, is your relationship okay?
If the man is not prepared to listen to you about the puppy, then perhaps there are deeper issues.. I couldnt spend my life with a man that doesnt take me seriously.
Good luck x
