take her to a school

Call the Dog Whisperer! Although it does sound hopeless. But maybe you could get on his show and make lots of money. http://www.cesarmillaninc.com/ But seriously, he may be able to help you. For starters, why do you EVER let her in the house?!!!

I think just give the dog to a shelter, don’t let pee and excremant dominate your destiny.

You mean pass her on to someone else? Poor dog. She needs to be trained and psychoanalyzed.

exactly. just because people messed her up doesnt mean she should be abandoned at a shelter and most likely put down.thats the stupidest thing ive ever heard picklechip.
all this dog needs is kind but firm retraining from someone who understands dog behaviour.
dogs are pack animals. they look for a leader, and if there isnt one, they will be it, even if they dont want to, which your dog obviously doesnt as it is scared.
you husband may not have a dominant personality, but he NEEDS to be firm with the dog. its not being cruel or changing his personality. but if he isnt commited, then nothing will change and its not going to work.
is she speyed? Often speying a dog can decrease its urge to be dominant and territorial.
and if she isnt speyed, then it is POSSIBLE that having a litter will calm her down somewhat, but it could also make her worse, its hard to know.
Bark Busters can be useful for some dogs and dominant barking behaviour, but theyre frankly pretty useless when it comes to serious issues like this pup has.
sure try that caesar millan but dont count on it, i would start googling dog experts in your area, and find an animal behaviourest who can help. But remember, all they can give you is the tools to help her, the actual putting that into practise and changing her behaviour with those tools will be up to you and your husband.
if EVERY avenue is eventually exhausted and nothing changes…then rather than giving the dog to a shelter who will put it down because its not re-homeable, i would suggest having the dog put down yourself.
also report the breeder to the National Kennel association in your country and the SPCA, and they can look further into your suspicions.

i dont mean to generalise, but tbh thats a fairly typical thing i see with men and dogs. if i were you i would bring up the subject again. say if nothing changes, shes going to have to be given away. and when he gets upset, ask why then, if it is so upsetting, will you not put in any effort to change her behaviour?
sounds to me like hes just being lazy, call him out on it.
ive seen a LOT of messed up dogs (im at vet school and were attached to an SPCA) and seen dogs with some really serious issues become great companions, given time and someone with the right knowledge to help them.
i know a woman who rescued a whole bunch of Malamutes from a puppy mill- the dogs were just kept in this massive enclosure and thrown food and just allowed to breed whenever, they were completely feral and aggressive, when the guy wanted to get puppies out hed just dart the dog, go in and take her babies, and that was it.
she took on 4 dogs who had never been touched by people, and were so aggresive she had to keep them in cages for weeks.
but slowly but surely, they learned to trust her, and she rehomed 3 of them and kept one herself.
so it can be done!

True, Courtybubble. And they are so worthy of kindness and so much happier when they’re trained.
