not to mention if someone posted on a baby site about how upset they were and frustrated i'm pretty sure no one would post back with:
for your child's sake i hope you figure this out!!! (which is basically what you have said to me)
i'm a good person and take great care of my dog, GOD FORBID i get a little overwhelmed and frustrated at this new experience and GOD FORBID i might be tired or sick from the cold and rain or sleep deprived and feeling ill, and GOD FORBID i actually seek encouragement and sympathy from people who have been there before me and have advice for how they got through it...
have you forgotten what it feels like to be a new puppy owner? or have you only forgotten your manners? |
I haven't forgotten a thing. I'm alot older than you and I did get up
with a puppy night after night but never came on YT to whine about it.
That's life. Puppies chew on finger's they are not evil their puppies.
I'm not being rude at all only honest. Did you actually think your puppy
would sleep threw the night and not pee or poop in the house? Would not
chew on your finger's daily and whine to be with you at all times?
I'm only responding to those things. I said I would no longer respond
to your threads but this took the cake and here I am.
I apoligize if I came off rude I was only being honest and everyday there
is another post about what seems to be your unhappiness in your new
puppy. It would be nice to see positive posting and your pleasure in
your new puppy. That's my opinion and I'm intitled to it.
Good luck,
