I can understand getting a nanny cam, but I'd be afraid by waiting and watching, if he is hurting her, it could result in a permanent or fatal injury. I'd feel really awful if something happened to my pup and I even had one inkling that someone was hurting him. Personally I'd take her to the vets. An exam may just indicate physical abuse. The blood shot eyes are a symptom of a blow or kick to the head.
Btw, my husband yells sternly (and spanked once) when Trace attempts to go in the street. Trace listens to him, but has never ever cowered from him. He runs back all wiggley happy. There's a reason she acts the way she does around your boyfriend and she's telling you loud and clear. I'd say her actions are telling you, he abuses her, and it's REPEATEDLY.
