Just venting :/

Idk what to do I'm going crazy !!! I swear I never yell so loud or get so mad until it comes to my bf dog I get very angry my stomach gets hard and I get a headache first of all I'm not a animal kind of person so I've never had any when I met my bf he had his dog already but they lived at his moms house so for 3 years of our relationship I was never around the dog since he use to stay in the backyard but for the last year me my bf and the dog been living together and my bf made him an inside dog and veryyy spoil rotten and I hate how he has made his dog such a baby the dog doesn't even act like a dog anymore -_- and when it rains his Dog goes crazyyyyy !!!!!! If he's home alone he will destroy it !! And we can't lock him up nowhere bc he will get a heart attack and he escapes if we put him outside he has to be on our feet or alllll up on us while it's raining and he breaths and shakes so bad and throws saliva everywhere and he just looses his mind and and its soooo annoying it didn't get to me until I got pregnant my whole pregnancy i haven't been able to stand it when he does that and when I'm home alone with him I have to deal with it !!! I can't cook or clean bc he's bothering me I try to ignore him but it's reallyyy hard to and last time we took him with us and left him in the car while we ate and he busted the window with his head and was running away until my mom saw him and got him and if we leave him home he destroys and chews on our doors and like I said we can't lock him up In a room garage or nothing bc he gets a panic attack idk what to do anymore it's reallyyyyyy stressing me out !! We can't even go out when it rains of him :(( idk what Ima do when my baby gets here I can't deal with that bs !!!

Hi
I am vet tech and it sounds like separation anxiety and a fear of thunderstorms. The thunder shirt does work very well for some animals so I would try it. You can also crate him but do it when u r home and just for 5 minutes at a time then let him out and praise and gradually increase the time but this is something u do daily and can take a long time.  If he was an outdoor dog- truly then he is probably wanting to be with you guys now and is afraid when u leave that it is like being outside alone so this can also take time. Try not to get mad but reward any good behaviour. So if he sits quiet for 5 mins that is abnormal for him, praise and or reward. Don't always dicipline. If these thing don't work u can try a behaviorist and then medication to take the edge off can be very safe. He doesn't want to be like this either and just needs resetting.
When it comes to your baby he will still stress when it rains which will likely wake your baby when u don't want. But he will likely take to the child and be protective and be watching all the time. I would bet that they become best buds and it will also help to tame your dog.
Try it try not to yell and try to stay calm. Your bf needs to do this as well not just u.
Take care

Oh god my boyfriends dog irritates me. It has this funky dog and cheese dorito fusion smell, has no respect for anyone, itches to get attention (to the point it bleeds everywhere) and full on growls at me. I absolutely hate it, but it only irritated me once I hit the second trimester and it'd jump on my belly a lot .-. But bc we live with his mum we can't get rid of it bc family dog.

My boyfriends dog also gets very uoset when it rains and especially when it thunders or lightnings. She is a large dog too and will pant and run around the house whining. There is a jacket called the thunder jacket or thunder coat that yoy can get for dogs... It is supposed to wrap around them tightly so they feel secure and arent so scared. Maybe something to research online?

And ever since I'm pregnant he just stinks to me he doesn't smell bad but just the smell of dog like idk how to explain it makes me want to throw up and he's very jealous of my bf idk how he's gonna act when my daughter is here ans trust me we have had a million talks that dog is not going anywhere but to heaven until he dies I'm not hoping he dies but I just can't wait to not have no more dogs and be crapped in one of the rooms wall ughhhhh

You should reallly have a long and serious talk with your boyfriend about that DA*N dog. I would not be able to handle it. What sounds best is for y'all to get rid of it.
