‘You are the problem‘: Irresponsible dog owner adopts a new puppy into his untrained dog household and fears consequences, online canine community comes to his rescue

We're going to say this once, and very loudly for all the people who especially need to hear this: there are no bad dogs, only bad owners. Dogs, at the heart of their canine core, are good and seek out pleasure from people and their environments. Training your dogs is not only crucial to your quality of life, but also your dog's. They need you to help them understand the hooman world you've brought them into. Sit, shake, and come are not good enough - you have to teach them how to interact with their environment and deal with stressful situations.

So, when dog pawrents don't train their dogs, and then complain about how they act, all we can do is shake our heads and sigh. It's just not fair for the poor pupper. In the story below, you'll encounter an irresponsible dog owner who adopted a new puppy despite having an untrained older dog. Naturally, they needed help, and thankfully, the internet came to their aid, but not before roasting them first. Scroll down to read the whole thing below!

We can sympathize with this dog pawrent, but in the end, only they can solve their own problems. It's hard to own a dog. Each one comes with their own unique set of problems, and though there may be many YouTube videos on how to train your dog, there is no “one size fits all” manual.

This is true, you are literally their whole world. You are their parents, their teacher, their friend, and their family. You are the only one who communicates with them daily. It's a lot of responsibility, but it's so worth it if you do it right.
