This sweet baby spent his first 3 years on a chain. I spent >$1k to be able to walk him bc he's 85 lbs of pure nervous. He can't get close enough to us (needy) but is scared of everything.

This is what happens when you chain a dog. Please stop...

I'm so glad he has you now! This just makes me so sad. Don't have a dog if you can't or don't want to take care of them properly. Seems so simple and obvious, yet there are still people who do things like chain their dog 🤦‍♀️.

You are interpreting this incorrectly.

I’m just saying that more dogs will get euthanized if number of adoptions go down even more.

I obviously don’t want dogs to have bad owners and live miserable lives.

But no one can stop bad owners from adopting the dogs. There is simply no way to prevent this.

Poor baby 😭 I'm a sucker for adopting dogs with sad tales. My first pup was thrown out of the back of a truck on an expressway with his sister, only he made it. My current dog was left out chained up while his owners fled a hurricane situation. There had to have been more going on in his life because he is afraid of everyone. It took him quite a while and a lot of work/paitence to open up to me but he's now a Velcro dog who loves to snuggle. 💜 Thank you for being a steady and loving person for this pup!

Just keep loving him and showing him trust, treats and walks and play if he will play find his drive, dogs have a lot of energy and releasing it calms them down. Just the same as when you are stressed and upset.

What a sweet looking boy, thank you for your dedication!

It’s heartbreaking to hear stories of dog abuse. These are social creatures, with a need to belong and to bond. Thank goodness for people like you that provide a ray of hope.

Give him time - he will start to trust you.

Such a handsome boy! Love his ears ❤️. What’s his name? Looking forward to following his journey in his new home #offthechain 🥰

But is this a good idea or too risky?

A long post: seeking some perspective. My husband of 2 years that I’ve been in a relationship with for more than 8 years just woke up one day and told me that he’s unhappy in our relationship. I’m devastated because he’s never expressed anything like this in the 8 years. He’s been super supportive and loving, even when we were in a long distance relationship. He supported my career and dreams and this just doesn’t make sense. We have gotten a counselor but things aren’t getting better. Comment>
