I thought for sure getting Angel would be a great thing.
Okay so she is five months old and we all know puppies have weak bladders. DH gets overly angry when she piddles on the floor or poopies on the rugs. We take her out... she'll do her business out there.... then fifteen minutes later she is in the house and she piddles on the floor!! DH hollars.... spanks her (yeah I know, rotten... I hate it too but he doesn't listen)... and this morning her threw something in her direction when she piddled. Boy that got me out of bed quickly.
I know we have made a mistake letting her run free in the house and I've tried telling DH that even though she whines she needs to be in her playpen unless we can keep an eye on her AT ALL TIMES.
Anyway, DH and I got into a row this morning about puppy. I don't like how he gets overly angry with her... it makes me think that we did the wrong thing. I don't like listening to her whine in her play pen... and I really don't like DH hollaring at her to be quiet all the time. He keeps saying that he is fine, that I'm the one that will have to deal with her for a year while he is gone but then he adds "and I better not come home to a stained rug"........
HONESTLY!!!
Am I over reacting to his over reacting??
Does anyone have more advice that I could use (on both deal with puppy and DH.
) Thanks for listening.
