3 AnswersFashion & Accessories1 decade agoHelp Please I don't know what else to do!?
I have a two year old Cocker Spaniel I rescued from a negative abusive home. He had no training there he was kept in a small room with 3 Other dogs seance he was about 6 months old after he had chew through the crate he was kept in sense he was 8 weeks old. Th dogs all ate slept and went to the bathroom in the room. They were only let out once a day to go out in the yard for a couple minutes while there food bowls were filled and the feces was cleaned out of the room.
When I got my dog about 4 months ago I thought he was a very lovable dog and felt bad for him and wanted him to have a better life. At first there were just little problems. He pooped and peed in the house occasionally but new to go out side and us ally would go to the door when he needed out. Then he started marking in the house all over the place so I got him fixed. He still marked on all my rugs and on my bed. I keep him in a crate when Im not home or he behaved badly but it is making no difference. I decided to get a belly band to prevent the marking in the house and its working.
He seems to be regressing though. he is now starting to go to the bathroom on my porch not the yard! I punish him each time he does this but he wont stop. He never did this before why did he start? I don't have the time to walk him in the morning and I aways just let him out he did his business and came back in.
Also whenever he does something bad he hides in his crate he knows that is where I put him when he is bad. It is also where I feed him and he stays when Im gone. He has never marked or gone potty in there.
My boyfriend wants to get rid of the crate. He says he shouldn't think its alright to pee in our home and not his.
I don't know what to do Im considering finding him another home but Im scared someone else will think they can fix him and when they cant he'll nd up in a shelter.

2 AnswersHomework Help1 decade agoHow to stop my male dog from marking in the house!?
So my two year old cocker spaniel is marking his territory allot lately. At first i thought it was only b/c we were staying with a friend who had a male cat b/c he never did it in doors before. Then I moved into my own apartment at first it completely stoped. Then one night he marked on MY BED and he did it again the other night!(both times he did it while I was in the shower)
I tried fencing him out of the room (no door) but he climbs it. I want to fix him asap but I don't hav the money yet as soon as I do he WILL BE NEUTERED!
I need a quick fix to prevent this marking.
8 AnswersDogs1 decade agoI don't know what to do with my dog?
My mom recently moved to out of PA to Texas. I lived with her and when she moved in with a family friend. When she left she was going to give out family pet a 2 year old cocker spaniel away to her friend that I know abuses animals. So when she asked me if I wanted him of course I said yes.
He is only partially trained because my mother kept him in a closed in porch ALL day. Hes very friendly and knows basic commands, but is always peeing and sometimes pooping in the house.He also has trouble controlling his badder when you yell at him, I think this is from my step-dad hitting him when he was little.
Ive had him at my friends for about two weeks now. We have tried training him to go outside but its not working. We take him out every hour and he STILL goes in the house. I know that he is use to this because my mom never let him out before but I don't know what to do.
I will be moving into my own apartment in a month and I will be VERY VERY busy. I'm in school all day and then will be going to work. I really don't have time to take the bast care of a dog. It's very hard for me because he is a sweet dog and I love him, but I think that finding him new owners may be better for him.
What should I do I'm so torn on rather I should try or find him a new home.

2 AnswersMakeup1 decade agoStep-dads threatens me to get his way. How to get him to stop?
I just made a post about my step dad but this would make it way to long to add. But please read this too http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;%E2%80%A6
When I was fifteen I started dating a guy five Years older then me. Blah blah blah I know what does a 20 year old want with a15 I know ive heard it all don't criticize me. We are very much in love and have been together almost 2 years. He makes me happy like nobody else and I know he's who im meant to be with.
I decide to keep it from my step-dad and my because my step-dad is very mean and controlling. Considering he doesn't let me have friends I doubted he would let me date no matter the guys age.
After sneaking around for a year and a half we got caught somebody ratted us out. So very much to our surprise they didn't immediately call the police but they said they wanted to meet him and possible give us a chance. I think they expected him to be horrible but he is far from that. Even there friends liked him. So for the past 3 months they've been allowing us to be together.
My mom really likes him she says the age difference isn't ideal but he really cares for me and she can see that. He tells her he wants me to go to collage and is very supportive of me staying out of trouble which she likes.
My step dad and him seem to get along sometimes. He gives my bf advice on his business he just started and stuff. But behind his back talks so much **** calls him a redneck and says he's controlling over me or that im obsessed with him. Which is complete (as my bf likes to say) horse ****! Sometimes I actually feel like he's jealous that I wanna spend time with my and not him. He's even accused my mom of flirting with my bf.
When me and my step-dad fight he threatens to call the cops on him. I don't know what to do! What if he calls the cops they have allowed us to be together and my mom said she wouldn't allow him to do that. I told my bf once in front of my step dad what he threatened to do and my step dad told my bf as long as I behave he wont.We plan on moving into together after Im done with high school. My mom likes the idea sense I still will be going to collage. My step-dad tho says im moving with them to go to school in Texas and I wont learn anything in Pennsylvania. That's why Im asking about him pressing charges after Im 18. No matter what am I moving with them tho I cant live with my step dad any longer then I have to.
What can I do to stop him from making this threat? I'll be 18 in 5 months but my step-dad said he can still press charges for another 5 years. Is this true?
My step-dad means pressing charges for the past when I was underage and me and my bf were dateing. I know they can do this for sexuale abuse cases there a five year window for charges to be pressed. But can they still do that I am compleatly against ever no matter what testafiying againt my boyfriend.

1 AnswerFamily1 decade agoArrogant, blackmailing, controlling step-dad and naive, dependent mom?
MY dad died 2 years ago when I was fifteen very unexpected. Right after my dads parents helped my mom move her me and my 2 siblings up to live closer to them. About 2 months later my moms boyfriend moved in with us, 3 months after that they got married. Ive know this man practically my whole life cuz he was my dads best friend.Its been hard on me my brother and sister ever sense. My mom knew we didn't want them to get married but I think she did it for the money. And he isn't a citizen only a resident. He's only 31 and this is his 3rd marriage which makes me think is he getting married to stay in America?
He's extremely controlling. He wont allow my mom discipline her own children or have any say in what he does. He has a very short temper and brakes things such as my bedroom door or my things he did not purchase and refuses to replace them.He can be quite mean and disrespectful to my mom and she never tells him to stop. Which especially bothers me that he's only 31 five years younger then her. He and I constantly fight no matter how hard I try not to I always seem to piss him off. He gets upset that i don't call him dad. Even tho he moved away from his own 3 kids from texas to P.A to be with my mom. Even tho he was my dads friend he talks badly about him saying he's a better father to us then he ever was. This is very hard for me to hear I was very close with my father and it makes me angry when he says that. Causing me to fight with him and I get punished.
Ive told my mom how I feel and she doesn't seem to care I remained her constantly and it dose nothing. I think she married him so soon to deal with the lose of my dad. She gets upset with us when we mention our dad and we know its cuz it makes her sad. She's very very dependent she's always lived off a man, didn't finish school, and hasn't had a job very long. So it would be very hard for her to raise 3 kids on her own. I love her but she is very dumb at times. My step dad buys her designer things my dad could never afford and at times I think she would chose her new lifestyle over her kids. She thinks he's a wonderful step dad because he has money. Even tho me my brother and sister get death benefits from our father which we never see it goes right into their joint bank account. Our house and bills are always paid and he'll buy ridiculous things like a new flat screen or a $300 purse but when I ask for money for clothes or shampoo etc. he says no. And when I ask about my benefits he says that only pays for rent and our food which means they owe me nothing.
Im 17 in 5 months 18 and he never let me get my permit or let my mom take me. He wont let me get a job either sence he or my mom would have to take me. I cant be emancipated without there permission and a job ive checked into it. Sometimes he even threatens to take me to court to prove me incapable to live on my own so i would have to live with them.
My grandparents are so helpful they give me money for things and take care of my brother and sister all the time. I cant live with my grand parents tho. We've both asked him and he said no and if they tried he would move my younger sibs to Texas and they would never see them again. There my dads parents nad both their children died so us kids are all they have left.
I need to know what to do I cant stand it at home everyday is turning into hell. I know alot kids have it worse but I cant stand this I feel so trapped like therse nothing I can do. Does anyone at least have tips to get along with him? Should I call him dad just to make peace? It hurts me so bad to do that to my dad but I just want to make this stop. How can I talk to my mom and make her understand? Ive tried to sososo hard but she just walks away. How can I make her understand he's gunna make her loose me?

Ive know this man practically my whole life cuz he was my dads best friend.Its been hard on me my brother and sister ever sense.
He's not a horrible man but he can be really hard 2 get along with at times. He gets very angry easily and always always has 2 be right. He disciplines the kids and my mom has no say what he says always go's. He can be quite mean and disrespectful to my mom and she never tells him to stop. Which especially bothers me that he's only 31 5 years younger then her.
He and I constantly fight no matter how hard I try I always seem to piss him off. He gets upset that i don't call him dad. Even tho he moved away from his own 3 kids from texas to P.A to be with my mom. he tells me what collage im going to but then tells me I cant go to be a teacher but I should be a doctor when I cant even go into a hospital.
well the list goes on and on with things he does. Like today I just got home from Gettysburg with my grandparents and I saw something my boyfriend would really like so I got it.However I didn't get him and my mom something even tho I didn't see anything they would like. Lately he's been getting really mad saying I care more about my bf then my family. Which is untrue and I spend everyday with them and help out as much as I can.
What should I do So he's not always so angry? Without bowing down to him. Ive tried reasoning and talking to him but it doesn't work
30 minutes ago - 4 days left to answer.
Additional Details
Ive told my mom and she gets mad and tells me I dont have a problem when he's buying me things. I do tho when he breaks my door down then refuses to buy me a new one. I love my mom but shea dumb. Shes very dependent on men and would always chose him over me.
15 minutes ago
Ive also tried to stand up to him. He called the cops on me. then took my bedroom door away and pretty much put me on house arrest even tho I already pretty much am. When he's mad he also will refuse to buy me things food when were out, shampoo, school clothes etc. even tho I get death benfits from my father and I never see any of it. It goes straight into his and my moms joint bank account.
He wont letme or let my mom take me to get my permit Im 17 or get a job. I had one but sence hes not my dad according to me he doesnt have to drive me then. And I have no other way there cuz my mom wont drive and im not allowed in the car with anyone else.
