Comment on Meet my new puppy: Ass!
MossyFeathers@pawb.social 3 months agoI know you’re not the owner and so it isn’t your job to house-train the dog, but personally I would have asked if it was okay if I trained it for them. I like dogs and working with animals, so personally I’d be more than happy to do it for free so long as they A) aren’t demanding I teach the dog tricks (only basic house-training), and B) they follow any instructions I give them.

Oh I tried, but he undermined everything I worked on. I went home to work every weekend so she’d pee on the carpet and he’d just leave it until I got back, so the idea that peeing in the apartment was bad never really stuck. He let her chew a red marker all over the floor, too, and when I walked in to see her doing it and him in the couch ignoring her, he sat up and was like, “oh, uh, bad dog!” It was impossible.
