Got A New Dog
9 years ago
So yeah, I got another dog, he is a Boston Terrier, and possibly a small amount of chihuahua, since his head isnt like normal Boston Terriers, I've been trying ti get a dog from the Oregon Humane Society, but that has proved impossible. So I found a lady on facebook and she was getting rid of her dogs, I'm guessing because she couldn't take care of them, well I must say, I do love the guy, but the lady lied to me, and so I am having to pay for every shot and stuff, because she never got him his shots, neutered, reworked, etc... he is a sweet guy, just has been neglected and mistreated his whole life, someone said he is basically a puppy mill dog, he's a year old, and is great with people, animals, kids, etc... the only issue, is he is ok with sleeping in his own excrement, which 99% of dogs hate to do, so that problem is making it difficult to house break him, but I digress, I just need to say, be careful when replying to classifieds and ads, they may not be what u expect, and they may be lying to your face the whole time, now for everyone who will say, just take him back, imagine you as a child being beaten, abused, starved, and neglected by yur parents, then someone adopts you and they take care of you and show u love, then they decide to take you back just because u keep making messes, how would you feel? I'd never take him back, so I'm sorry I'm not active here, my time is focused on him, my job, and family. Btw his name is Seamus, I changed his name to that

Sleeping in his own probably wasn't a choice for him judging by your description of his life so far. He just needs to be shown what's expected of him. A little patience and lots of love; he'll be fine. Be firm (not angry) when he's wrong, praise him when he's right.

OP
That's what I'm doing, its the trouble of him getting it in his mind that when you go outside, that's when and where you potty, so since he is used to sleeping in his own filth, I'm sure he just thinks I'm taking him outside just because
