[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My husband is very mean to our puppy.  Honestly, I HATE it.  I like him less now.  He'll say things like, "Nobody likes you" and "get away from me, stupid" or call him a "piece of sh*t."

It's like...having a non-human for him to be nasty to in the house has opened the floodgates on this gushing river of nastiness inside him.

FWIW, he takes pretty good care of the dog and for the most part - other than the verbal abuse - he shows love for the dog.  Gives him treats and scratches.  It's just...when he's in a bad mood, he just treats the dog like sh*t.  Not because the dog pooped in the house or was being annoying...just as a way to vent.

He thinks I'm nuts to be bothered by this since the dog doesn't understand.  Bottom line for me, though, is I don't want to live around a person who talks like this all the time.  I don't want to hear it.  I don't want to hear it directed at someone I love, either.  And even if he can't understand it all, he does understand tone.  And it's *mean*.  Like, you could stay "c'mere, you fluffy little sh*thead" in a cute and officiate way and the dog would think he's getting crowned.  But this is a nasty tone.  [/quote]

Reported???  The thread is about people saying "mean" things to their dog.  My DH thinks they're "mean" and I think they're mean.  It's on topic.[/quote]
