This is my opinion. I was making light of the situation but seriously my comment did have one tiny thread of truth in it. Anyone who hits a puppy would not be a fiance I would have. (Me, my values.) I do have some questions for you.
Does he like dogs? Did he want the puppy? Does he have a temper? Will he listen to you and take your feelings about the matter seriously? Honestly this is a reality check for you and your life as it may be in the future. You are asking for advice from strangers. I am willing to give it to you straight. I came from a horrible abusive back ground and think there are warning signs women choose to ignore. I am not jumping to say he is an abuser. I am saying if he does not take your feelings and welfare for the dog seriously. . . why the hell not. And are you willing to live with that?
Anyone knows you do not strike a puppy, that is not how they learn. They do not have full control of their bowels yet. They are learning. If you want a dog to regress, get fearful and run from you. Hit it.
A yorkie is a toy breed that is fragile and can be easily hurt. Was his act out of anger?
I in no way want to attack your fiance. I would appeal to him and seriously ask him not to hit the dog again. Then decide what you want to do about it.
It is not funny to tell you to break up with him. I am asking you to consider your own situation. Just giving you my perspective, take it or leave it. |
