This poor little dog should be rehomed and given a chance at a real life with love and joy throughout the day. No dog should live like this. I could not read this thread until now and am sorry that I did but OP was brave to post it. Now be brave and convince your mom she and the dog will be way better off in separate homes. You are this dog's last chance at a real life.
