Goddamn lowdown dirty stupid piece of shit fucking ass LIARS

duuuude, learn to train your pet, i'm sure there are courses and stuf.. it ain't complicated (in fact it's fun) :mickey:

i was accused of lying for almost the whole of the last year.... it was all inconsequential, but it reminded me why it's often better not to shout from rooftops

 

Believe me, the dog is as unhappy as you are. I hope you'll consider bringing in a local trainer to work with you, your partner, and your dog. Ask a vet (or two) for recommendations. It might cost you a hundred bucks for a session or two but that's a small price to pay for peace of mind and years of enjoyment with each other's company, instead of stress and anger.

The three of you can work this out and become a happy, well-functioning pack.

 

sounds like you are just angry. none of this thread makes sense. learn to take care of your dog. quit whining.

 

Some dogs are just not trainable...
We have a 5 year old newfoundland who was properly trained to not piss/shit in the house, not chew shit up, not eat off the counters/tables..
And yet each month we go through a lot of food of him eating it, just last week he pissed on my backpack (including a half semesters worth of notes, worksheets and my french book) and gets on the couch and claws on everything...
and first he seemed to take well to training and for a while didn't pull that shit, but even though positive reinforcement of good behavior he still does it.
I'm all in favor for putting the dog in the pound, but for some reason my parents like it...

 

she was trained for a while. she can sit, stay, is housebroken, and does the main stuff, responds to many verbal commands, like "get down", "no", "good girl", "bad dog", "go potty". But we have never been able to walk away from food, keep her out of the curtains. (we've been through tens of curtain rods) She won't stay out of the trash, either. That one's really hard to train for, cuz you never catch her actually getting into the trash, she waits til you're not around. She does the same with the food thing. So she KNOWS that she's being a bad dog, but she doesn't care.

 

Those kinds of expenses should be planned for by the owner before they even get a dog.

Training a dog requires extreme dedication and an overwhelming amount of free time. Not just anybody is cut out to have a pet. Real training requires keeping the dog within eyesight to correct every mistake for weeks until they are COMPLETELY trained - they're simple animals that cannot learn from having their noses rubbed into mistakes as an afterthought. With the exception of serious mental or physical disabilities, there is no such thing as an untrainable dog - only incompetent owners. This is coming from a person who has ruined the lives of many dogs before finally figuring out that it was me, not them.

It always baffles me how easy people think it's going to be to raise a puppy. They're animals - they cannot be programmed like a VCR. I would laugh at every owner that has let their dogs training and manners go down the drain, but it's too sad of a situation for the pet for me to find any humor in it. Regardless, owners of badly behaved pets almost always created their own monster and deserve every pile of poo or torn up loafer they find. ;P

 

I think everyone lies at some stage in the life. little white lies and what not

but theres a diffrence between telling a white lie like you tell ur children theres a santa, or a tooth fairy. then some fricking woopin big ass lies, that i cant stand

 

to the directorial pejorative,,

 

so what is it that you think I may have embellished...because I thought the dick length thread was supposed to be a joke...my penis is not 6 inches around......i rounded up

 

Lying is a special little hobby of mine, either way i love people, i try to keep the hating to a minimum, after all we are just humans.

 

Death what about confining the dog when you can not be home to minimize the damage?

Dogs are like kids, you think you have them trained and they just need to act up once in a while.

Train the dog a little more.

Hopefully the dog stop lying soon though otherwise I am going to think the dog was not the issue.

 

Stuff em

 

yeah they should, just like a wedding........

 

Although I am sure you would find that spending more time working on it would change it from being an untrainable dog into a great companion, in the meantime, solve some of the problems on your end.

If you know the dog gets into the garbage, start putting the garbage in a closet that has a door that actually latches, if not all the time, at least when you aren't going to be there.

If she eats food when you leave it out... stop leaving it out.

You know she does these things, so if you don't change your habits, why would she?

One of the dogs I rescued years ago, I gave to someone I had thought was a buddy who loved animals. I stopped into his house one day and the dog was limping, so I asked him why.

He said that she grabbed a bone out of the garbage so he threw her into the can to teach her a lesson...

The can, was a little bathroom style garbage can, open mouthed, no lid, sitting on the floor beside the stove. The dog was a medium sized dog, the size that would consider something like that the right size for a food dish...

I walked over, picked up the leash and put it on her. He asked what I was doing, and I told him I was taking the dog back and if he even opened his mouth about it, I would throw him into the garbage can to teach him a lesson.

You know the problems you have, fix the situation so you minimize them, and then spend more time training the dog.

Or get rid of it to someone who will.

 

after 2 years you think the owners would have trained it

 

ive lied way too much over the years. i hate it. i am currently actively changing myself and not lying to people. its hard when you want to keep certain habits from people, but sometimes honestly really is the best policy. this doesnt always hold true but a lot of the time it does.

fuck lying and liars.

 

Oh man, some people tell the most bogus bullshit obvious lies and expect you're stupid enough to believe them. This one guy tells all these stories about being in the military, which everyone knows he never was. I remember one time he told me and my boyfriend that he swam 10 miles in freezing cold water and got picked up by the navy seals and they said he was a navy seal too now. Or that he once was shot 83 times in his bullet proof vest. "My name's in the credits of black hawk down" Or that people call him 'Kid' cause he supposedly looks like kid rock. No, you look like a greasy fucking homebum. If you're wondering why we listened to all this garbage without bitching him out... comic relief. Simple as that. It was fuckin FUNNY! Or people who lie about the size of their penis... that's funny too.

 

Do you lead that guy on? Maybe he really is a real live forrest gump.

 

I honestly don't know. We'd exchange sideways glances and laugh... If someone's trying to tell a serious story and the listeners start laughing hysterically, you'd think that would discourage them from telling more. Nope.

 

humans are liars by nature. cant do much about it.
