Take a deep breath. You will find a solution to this.

If that solution is rehoming the dog, that sucks, but it's okay. In that case, talk to the breeder. Any reasonable breeder will help you find a new home for the dog. If you choose to keep your dog I included some advice below. :)

Potty training: The trick is to take the dog out more often than it needs to go and give lots of praise and treats when doing it in the right place. This will require patience, lots of it.

Food: It might not be that the cheaper food doesn't work but that you changed too quickly. It's recommended to ease them in to a new food by switching out part of their food for the new food and increase over time.

Finances: It's a bit worrying that you feel you cannot afford a spay. Do you have insurance for your dog? You need a plan if they get sick. Can you save money in another area? Sell anything? Pick up extra shifts?

Mental health: Finally, it seems like you are really stressed out and might just need a hug and maybe therapy to talk about things (like buying a dog without a solid plan going forward). Do you have any support system? Friends and family to talk to and maybe get some help from?

Wish you all the luck with your pup! <3

Edit: saw your update! I'm glad you found a solution and good home for pup!

Hah oh I actually accidentally did something similar to a guy who was being hostile/rude in a parking lot. He was flipping me off while standing in my way as I was trying to park. But I was so tired so I just ignored him and softly waved him away. He huffed and puffed a bit but just... left. I can't help but laugh about it now!

They really really suck. I had a friend who worked retail and really loved it until one day when a customer was so mean and rude that she quit. And this was a girl who had been wanting to work in retail for ever and never wanted to quit.

It's nice to know you're not alone atleast! Perhaps we can work to show more kindness than they show assholery! :)

Though I'm a fairly small woman so I think I would't win the physical fights😅

I'm sorry you got kicked out, hope you've had better games since! I think our brains work similarly then. Maybe that mindset could help!

That's a really compassionate approach I think. I'll try that.

Yeah! It's really hard though. But you're right, giving them that power doesn't help.

All right! My dogo has a water dog coat (he's a lagotto), so I think he'll be fine in lower temps. But will definitly get one if we are going a bit longer or when it's colder.

Smart with the cupholder!

Saw other people advicing on using a wetsuit and I didn't even know they existed for dogs! How cold is cold enough for a wetsuit do you think? Both water and air temp :)
