What in the world are the dynamics at your home? Does your grandfather live there? Is he supposed to be the responsible adult when your mom's not home?

If you are a kid and he's the one in charge I don't know what to tell you, but if he lives there and when your mom gets home, she allows this to continue, then for the dogs well being, it needs to be rehomed. (how old are you?)

i am pretty sure the original poster is a little on the "special" side.
Her granddad is probably in charge when mom is not there.

Sorry jp, I had forgotten you aren't a kid, but it sure sounds like your grandfather is one...

I will show them to my mom when she gets home and say your stupid father wouldn't listen to me that is why i look this way. He tells me not to play with bruno at all and he said i deserve to be bitten when I sure as heck don't deserve anything.

Hope she beats you like you should be beating the dog. Maybe they should buy a shock collar and put it on you so every time you do something stupid they can shock the hell out of you.

You're an idiot, and talking about your grandfather like that is disrepectful, and you should be punished, hope your mom has the sense to.

Oh look, it's Miss Congeniality.

Actually, that's being nice.

You're an idiot,

Do you always treat "special" people with so much compassion?

This is not the time, nor the place to be making jabs at the poster. We are talking about a caring women of adult age who lives in her parents home. Her grandparents are visiting for a few weeks and her parents are on a short vacation.

Regardless, the grandfather obviously mishandled the puppy (that does not belong to him) and could have caused serious fear issues as the puppy is now in one of her fear stages.

JP is correct in saying that the puppy does not understand being thrown down and told to stay. She is a very smart pup and knows the command "down". However, like any other puppy, we can not expect her to hold it for a long period of time. Up until now, all of her training has been positive reinforcement with corrections for biting.

Hang in there JP. If you need anything, give me a call.

I am 31 and hes here to take me back and forth to the store that my stepdad owns. He lives in florida and just comes here to visit thankgod. My mom and stepdad come back next tuesday night late so they will see how bad he treats bruno on wednesday when they see us in the am. I will also let her know after they leave what he did to her the whole trip they were gone and say next time find someone else to come here because I don't want them here.

JP is there anyone that can keep this poor puppy until your parents get home? Can you and Bruno lock yourselfs in your bedroom?

Much as you might not want to be away from Bruno, it sounds like this man could cause this poor pup to go backwards in training (if he hasn't already).

This just blows my mind how "family" can treat another family member the way he is treating you, and totally display such disrespect for the homes established rules

Well I think we are back to stage one with training the dog. She was doing good til they came and they started using the total wrong commands. My grandfather yells at the dog constantly. if she walks over and lays her head in his lap he tells her to get lost . I am going to make my mom aware of all of this when she gets back after they go to my uncles house because I will never want them to come back when they go away again and my stepdad needs me to run the store. I would rather pay someone in stepdads family to run me back and forth than have my grandparents come back as I see they really hate the dog and my mom said grandpa loves dogs well that is a total lie. I have been trying my hardest to keep bruno away from grandpa and guess what she cowers when he comes near her now due to what he did to her yesterday. Today I was vaccumming and get thsi he tried to get her to go to him and she wouldn't go so he got her by the collar and dragged her into the dining room and told her to sit and not move but guess she tried to run from him and she did instead she chased me while i vaccummed as she realy doesn't care for the vaccumm that much and barks at it constantly til its turned off.

He also told me to not give her any attention too..Well I talked to the trainer about this and she told me to totally do the opposite of what he says because she will think I am not part of her pack anymore if I pay 0 mind to her. I spent a lot of time with her lastnight I kept the country store open til 830 and we were there about 3pm so she got 5hrs and 30min worth of attention by others and me. Today she and I will go about 230pm again and be there at 3 til 545ish then we will come home and she will get to meet my brother for the first time an he and i will play with her and give her plenty of attention.

As you all can tell I am stressed out. I have 0 control over this situation but I am going to make it known I don't want them to come back again to take care of bruno I would rather board her somewhere if they are coming than her be here at the house even though she supposed to go to the country store as much as possible as shes the stores mascot. I don't want her to be afraid of me since my grandpa is making her afraid of everything he possibly can at this point in time.

remeber you are only getting her half of the story. it sounds a little overblown to me......

Oh, Im sorry, I guess we should coddle them and tell them how BRILLIANT they are, while they disrespect their family in a public forum.

He travels all the way up her from Florida to HELP out her and the family, and all she can do is insult him.

And the motards (mo tarded than most) come out of the woodwork to support her through these stressful trying times.

 

[krazd_kat]

I don't agree with the disrespect she has stated on here - but I also cannot fathom the disrespect he is showing to her home, her and the dog. We all blow things out of proportion but even thinking only 1/2 of what she is repeating is that bad, that's too much for a puppy's developing time.

It sounds like a family thing, that will have to get straight when her parents return, but no one should treat a puppy the way he has, even if he's only done 1/2 of what she says.
