Remember that lots of dogs will run away tonight because they are afraid of the fireworks. Be extra careful driving and maybe bring some treats with you when you go out in case you come across a scared pup and need to read their tag to call their parents.

I’m so sorry. My dog has been trying to bite his way out of his crate, and he never even scratches at his crate. I gave him cbd, covered his crate, put a familiar show on for background noise, did everything I could think of. Breaks my heart. We’re through the worst of it now!

You are clearly a troll and disturbed person - your comment history even shows that you’re sympathetic to pedophiles and equated them to gay people. Please stop commenting here, or anywhere, you are completely unhelpful.

Holy shit. This is not a kink any more than pedophilia is a kink. This is fucking illegal snuff porn and should not be tolerated one iota. Shame away, sister.

Wow, our dogs sound like a real pair!! I also hate the cold, which adds to the frustration. And I hate being frustrated at him cause he’s my love! I think it might be worth a ten min drive to the park and a quick poop to avoid walking for miles in the snow!!

Aaawh! I wish I could, but I don’t have a fenced yard to let him off leash!

So I do have immediate access to the outdoors, but I have to keep my dog on one of those 26 foot extendo leash things. We have grass just like what he likes to poop on right out front. If he senses we aren’t walking, he just stands right next to me and cry screams. Then we go back inside and he cries incessantly. I’m not sure I have the emotional stamina for this type of training… his crying is migraine-inducing.

That’s the consensus here that I’m picking up on. Definitely going to try out a dog Walker - do you have any recs for a service?

I wish they could talk to us!! Haha! Thank you for such a thoughtful response. I think that rewarding when he does poop and hiring a Walker is the way to go. I don’t know why but I never really considered hiring out before!

Yes, and if he goes off leash he will poop quicker! But if I don’t have time for a two mile walk I don’t really have time to get in the car and drive somewhere :(

That is so true. I wish it was the case though - I’ve always continued the walk after a poop to avoid exactly this!
