I did a terrible thing to my puppy today, and I want to confess it I have to confess this, I am ashamed of it but at the time was so angry I just did it. I hit my puppy Bijou, then shook him and shouted at him NO NO NO NO, he had pooped huge one hour earlier outside, so he earned freedom to run and play with Bandit right in front me in the bedroom where the PC is. It was not more than 60 minutes after the huge poop outside he proceeded to POOP a huge lump and it happened so quickly that I had no time to stop him, it just fell out his bottom in a split of a second and I was shocked and angry, I grabbed him and slapped his bottom and then shook him and was very angry with him, then showed him it and then forced him in his crate.
Now I know I will get murdered for this, but for this not to happen again, I am confessing it so I can get help as to how to deal with this kind of anger when he does this again. Just when I think he is understanding he is not. he is 6 months old today, and I feel he should know better than to crap in my bedroom which he seemd to love doing. he has access to doggie toilet and paper in the wash room, why must be come in here and do it and so fast?
I feel badly for hitting him and I know you are not to hit a dog, but I just lost my temper with him because he had done it so soon before and so much of it I never would expect him to do this again so quickly. He earns freedom when he is a good boy, but if he will continue to do this then I have to crate him for longer, I honeslty feel the crating is not really teaching him that it is not allowed in the house, but only to hold.
So let me hear the condemnation because I know I will be killed for this, but I just totally lost my temper with him.
