Definitely train the pup, not for your BF but for you and your baby. All dogs need to be trained where to pee and poop. Start now, potty training is a MUST DO with or without a BF. Even tho it's your fault for your babies bad behavior, I would DUMP THE BF before I got rid of my baby. How much could he care / love you when he tells you to get rid of the dog he knows you love, if you had an unruly child would he tell you the kid needs to go? If he truly cared / loved you he would suggest you both start with a potty training program. As for chewing things up, when you get a puppy to have to puppy proof your home, just as you would have to baby proof if you had a toddler in the home. Puppies are notorious for stealing thing and chewing them or hiding them. If you don't want to lose it, put it where the puppy can't get it. IMO he is out of line to tell you to choose "him or the dog" I would be handing him his tooth brush and showing him to the door . But, PLEASE, do it for your self and this precious baby and do train her, also as Doodlebug stated what will happen to the dog, where will she end up, will she be beaten, starved, abused, not given proper vet care. You took her to care for and to love her, PLEASE do not get rid of your baby like she is a worn out shoe to be tossed away, this is a life we are talking about. Get rid of the BF keep the baby, there are plenty of men that would be more then willing to work with you on training a dog, knowing how much you love this little furbutt. Start now training her. Good luck, I pray you make the right choice.
