Re: tw: animal abuse

[(Anonymous)]

Thank you.

I know I can't control my mother's actions. It took me a long time to realize this.

But when I say "we" mistreated the dog, I'm referring to some of the things we were supposed to practice in training... things that involved choke collars. It went fine during training, but I could never quite get it right at home. After a couple of times trying to train the dog with a choke collar at home, I just gave up. The poor little thing kept shrieking every time I used it and I just couldn't do it anymore. It wasn't intentional, but I still had a hand in the mistreatment. I know I can't change the past, though.

Choke collars can actually be a good training tool, especially if you are dealing with an excitable or aggressive animal that would wind up injuring itself or others. In general, the idea is to train the animal just long enough to not need the choke collar anymore. So attempting to use that collar doesn't make you a bad person.

And even in this case, I'd still put the blame on your mother, who obviously had little to no interest in helping you care for this animal. This is why good parents understand that when they get a pet for their child, THEY are also getting a pet. Children aren't generally able to train and care for a dog all by themselves.

This really, really wasn't your fault.
