    [QUOTE]My dog lost half her tail when she got hit by a car.  It was really a really painful thing for her to go through, but it was needed since it was severely broken. I could never imagine docking her tail because it annoyed me.  And I have a pit.  Those suckers have tails like baseball bats.

    It wasn't bothering <strong>me</strong>. Are you not seeing it? She was in <em>pain</em>. A lot of it. She didn't take well to other treatments (wrapping it, E collar). It was our last option. So fcking sorry.
  • It just floors me that you try ONE training class (I mean one set of classes, not just going to one session), you try ONE crate, you try ONE way of walking (nightly) and when those things don't work you blame the dog and give up.

    Dude, dogs are sort of like people.  Exercising at night doesn't work for me, I need mine in the morning.  If one particular college professor and I didn't mesh, I didn't swear off the whole subject.  If something isn't working, TRY SOMETHING ELSE.

    It's not rocket science.

    [QUOTE]In Response to Re: :( : <strong>Yes, but you also need one of those feather fishing pole toys.</strong> But if he eats it, then you have to kick him out. LTZ, that makes sense if the dog was injuring herself, and I agree I'd do the same. I'd just never heard of that. And given the current situation, I also wonder if that's what really happened.

    [QUOTE]AND ALSO?  If nightly walks aren't working (clearly they're not), maybe you should try walking in the morning too.  If they dog was a little more sleepy during the day, she wouldn't be as inclined to eat her way out of her crate.

    <div>so true.  I have a husky/golden mix.  He's about as high-energy as they come, to be honest.  He goes to the dog park almost daily (we live in an apartment, so he doesn't have a yard.  But he can run and run and run at the dog park, and he can interact with other dogs.)  He also gets a quick walk in the morning. </div><div>
    </div><div>There were a few days we didn't do this, and he was so much more destructive during the day.  He's BORED.  Give him some stimulation already.  You can buy smart toys online; puzzle kind of things that help them stay mentally interested.</div>

    [QUOTE]In Response to Re: :( : Your trainer is an idiot.   This is not how you correct poor or inappropriate behavior in a dog.  Dog training 101.  And taking  care of your dog's tail does NOT make you a "great owner".  It makes you a normal owner.  It's your responsibility to care for her... Also, if money is SO tight, why are you buying $100 shoes and spending all this time on the knot when you could get a 2nd job or find a way to increase your cash flow? I am with everyone else, take the pup to a no-kill shelter so it can have a wonderful owner who will actually treat it with respect and love. Your dog deserves better than what you can give.

    Not $100 shoes, worth of shoes. Difference. She ate 6 pairs total. Read. Its NOT that hard
  • Ditto Shaydenise, how is making her an outside dog now a better solution when you said awhile back that putting dogs in the hot Texas sun is cruel? Oh right, it's all FI's decision again. Of course.

    I find it ridiculous that you are placing the onus on us to ask you all the little details about this before forming opinions, when all you said was "my dog chewed my shoes, we're giving her away." Next time give all the information first, and if you don't then you shouldn't complain about the reception you've gotten here.

    [QUOTE]Shes got well over 50 toys in the house, scattered (chews, treat balls, ropes, you name it..all of them are chewed on). and the door was closed today so she broke into the bedroom and our closed closet. Sorry. We've tried training her. She ate her crate and its cruel to leave a dog outside in the Texas heat. And yes, we're taking her to a no kill shelter. She doesn't respond well to training (but she won't pee in the house). She doesnt like crates (See the note about her chewing on her crate). Call me a horrible pet owner. I don't  fcking care right now. Its just that nothing works and my FI is making us get rid of her. I would love to keep her and train her more and more but it isn't working.   <strong>Sorry, I dont feel like having to shell out another hundred bucks to replace things I need because our dog chewed on it.</strong>  Call me what you want.

    Having that mindset is totally fine.  Lots of people have that mindset.  SO THEY DON'T GO OUT AND GET A MOTHERF*CKING DOG, YOU MORON.

    Noodle's dog ate one of his diamond freaking studs a few years ago, and it NEVER occurred to him to get rid of it.  And I can assure you that diamonds trump shoes.

    Neither is being a responsible pet owner. 

    And?  (I just can't stop)  If I knew my dog liked to eat shoes, I'd store the shoes on a shelf.  Even with closed doors. 

    Think.  Problem solve.  It's NOT that hard.

  • OP, your trainer sucks. You can't reason with a dog by showing them what they did wrong and popping them on the nose. They don't remember doing it and all they are getting is that you hit them.

    It sounds like you're really frustrated and that's certainly not helping when your dog is picking up on your attitude and demeanor. At least try to find a no kill shelter or rescue group, because this dog does not deserve to die just because you don't have the time/patience/energy/money to spend making him a good pet.

  • We keep our shoes in the garage, on the wall.  It works out really well.  Our dogs don't chew on anything besides shoes, either, so it was a simple solution. If they do chew on them, it's our fault for leaving them out.   What kind of dog is it?  I agree with PP that maybe it's better if it finds a home with an owner that's willing to train & take care of it, but the problem of eating shoes is a really actually a minor one.  The recommendations of exercise (we walk/run our dogs 2 times daily, almost every day) and taking them to a good doggie day care could really, really help, but again these things take time, money and patience.

    I think you're the one who can't read. J&K clearly said that she meant one set/type of classes, because different types of training work for different dogs. And we've already established that your trainer is a moron because he's telling you to hit your dog, so maybe J&K had a point there?

    I love that you assume other knotties are dumb, when you're clearly the outsider on this topic.

    $100 shoes or $100 worth of shoes... regardless.  You're trying to deflect the blame here but you can't.

    To boot, don't accuse anyone of being dumb when you misspell/mistype in your own posts.
