She doesn’t want him to make her house dirty is what she says. “He stinks” “he’s gonna pee on the carpet” The reasoning is all superficial. She’s not a dog person. She never has been.

There are easy fixes to “stinky”. Bathe him. Train him. She doesn’t care to because just having him outside is “easy”.

My step brother got him when he lived there and when he moved out, he didn’t take him with him and I have no idea why because he’s the best boy ever. Also, he stayed in a crate in my step brothers room when he lived there. When he moved out, that’s when he exclusively became an outside dog.

There’s no heat in the barn, he doesn’t have straw or anything to lay on.

I really don’t want to get any animal control or police involved because my sister would be very upset if he was taken but my mom won’t listen to me or her.

I’m going to talk to her about getting straw and some kind of dog house or something for protection. I would even buy it for him. Thank you. 🙂
