Re: Sara's parents, a dog who goes back to their abuser is shut down in learned helplessness. They offer appeasement, a way of saying "Please don't hurt me" which is why they appear to be responsive or obedient to an abuser. Adopted Frenchies cost a basic adoption fee; a $2-5k dog is from either a shady backyard breeder or a well-respected responsible one. Finally, PETA are the LAST people you should quote, Tiff; they kill >95% of adoptable pets they take in. They're 100% against pet ownership.
You were told that this asshat kicked your dog by Karen, and yet you STILL never did anything or reported him?! Aggression begets aggression. "Asserting dominance" is a fallacy. Dogs don't need a "boss" or "alpha", and breeds are NOT "dominant" - dominance is fluid and dynamic, and changes depending upon which dogs are in a group (not a pack; dogs are NOT pack animals). Karen should've called him out IMMEDIATELY when she witnessed the kick. Aggression is common in dogs in pain, as are torn ACLs.
How do you watch someone kick a dog & stay silent? Not a fan of the roommate who watched it happen and said nothing. Also, "Dominance" is NOT a trait of a dog. It's high time people stopped listening to uneducated, uncertified "trainers" like C. Millan, seeing "dominance" as a trait. Dominance theory was debunked by Dr. David Mech, the originator of the "alpha/dominance" theory; the fallacy of the dominant dog needs to be long removed from our rhetoric. Asserting dominance over a dog is cruelty.
it's going to be hard to continue. how the fuck can you give up your dog especially after hearing that he kicked it. I have zero respect or empathy for this woman now
I did not realize that I would have any reason to dislike or distrust the sister Emily. But she is a jerk who actively disliked a dog, and was vocal about it. I had thought she was a very wise person who had the gift of insight, but she is just a judgemental jerk who happened to be right for once, in her assessment of what turns out to be a truly horrible person. what I thought was remarkable insight is turning out to be the mark of what is far more common: a person who judges and categorizes and criticizes and complains about everyone and everything she comes across.
Nope. That was really hard to listen to. We have a rescue frenchie who would habe been put down if my son hadn't formed an almost instant bond with him. He was helping a trainer who a french bulldog rescue organisation had turned to as a last resort and for unknown reasons Iggy (formerly known as Piggy) let my son pick him up and just be with him when no one else could. He had so many triggers, you couldn't walk close by him without him attacking your feet which hurts my heart so much because he came from a d.v home where the arsehole would kick him out of nowhere, so hard he would fly through the air and his owner, who was lovely, would let him get away with everything because she felt so much guilt. My son is still the only one who he'll let pick him up because the arsehole would pick him up and throw him against walls. Theres so much more but I'll leave it at that, I will say that everyone was extremely surprised that iggy connected so strongly with a male but he chose right, he wil
