I'm sorry your mom is treating him this way! How sad! Keep in mind that he is not having accidents because he wants to be difficult or he isn't smart enough. He just doesn't understand. It's not his fault but the fault of the humans in charge when he has an accident. It must be so frustrating for you and it certainly is frustrating for me as your mom is not here to yell at. You are only 15 but you know that it is not the correct way to handle things. Are you taking him out plenty of times to go potty? I know when you are 15, there are lots of other distractions but I would make it a priority to get him house broken.
There is a book out there called how to housebreak a dog in 7 days. Maybe you could try some of those techniques? I'm sure your mom is probably just frustrated but maybe you could explain to her that her reactions are only going to make things worse. He does not understand and you need to find a better way of communicating with him.... |
