[quote=Anonymous]OP, I imagine I am someone you would complain about. My kid BEGGED for a dog for ten years, absolutely begged. She is a great kid, adores animals, and during COVID we transitioned to remote jobs and finally felt like we had the time and energy to get her one. We did hours of training and walking and even spent thousands on a training course through the first year - really gave it everything we could.

My kid is over the moon and loves that dog to death, she is so happy. It is just as much work as I thought it would be and honestly for me personally, more work than it’s worth. I really and truly do my best but my dog is very vocal and active. She jumps when people come in the house, she barks when she plays in the yard, she pees in people’s yards (honestly not sure how to stop that!). I don’t let her off leash, I don’t let her lunge at people or hang out the window. I bring her inside when she barks. I swear I am trying my absolute best. But she’s still pretty annoying to non dog people, I imagine.

I’m really sorry about it, truly, but training her is the hardest thing I have ever done and she’s still not where she needs to be three years in. Sometimes it’s not laziness or not caring - maybe I shouldn’t have gotten a dog, absolutely. But I did, my kid loves her, and here I am doing my best. [/quote]
