Hi Im new here my fiance has a yorkie, I say hers because I honestly dont see why she wants to keep it around lol.

Here is a little history on the dog, it used to bark, at everything, chase people down the street, run off after cats people cars leaves the wind, everythng. Urinate on everything it wasnt even really house trained its 3 it was pad trained.

Its gotten a little better, used to like me though, now it hates me. urinates and cowers when I get home, urinates and runs in circles when its excited that my fiance is home, If I pick it up to take it outside it urinates on and runs all over the house and somehow continues to do so while I hold it to take it outside, if I bring it inside it will likely soon urinate on me or the floor again very soon.

Punishments I have given the dog for the barking and peeing in the house: loud firm "no" "Bad" pick it up, put it in the cage, or outside. Barking outside I take the dog in say no and put it in the cage. Running after someone down the street, well I have no choice on this one I run after the little thing and grab it by whatever limb comes first so it dosnt try to bite or scare some children. say no and put it in the cage. Ive gone as far before to give the dog a bath when it pees when being scared or excited to teach it things it dosnt like happen when it does things i dont like

Its made huge improvements in barking, mostly because if I say no its scared and stops everything! it no longer defecates in the house however, it does still seem to enjoy peeing on me or the floor or my fiance or her kid or the most enraging, the bed! If I come home and see that the bedroom door is left open and I want to go in there I have to sneak up on the dog quietly run in, grab it and run outside with it. If I dont it WILL every time pee on my bed, then I get upset then it pees more, then it walks slowly out the door while peeing on itself and the floor and what a mess!

Aside from giving it away what can I do, I would LOVE to just get another dog, I LOVE dogs. but this one is just about to push me over the edge and go nuts lol
I must stress, I don't beat the dog so the fear it has must come from its foolish brain. But I am a very tall large man and have a deep voice that probably instills fear in the little thing.
