Dad Leaves Dog In Cold Snow

[Deleted member 38644]

Im going through so much in life. Dealing with betrayal from my parents make it worse. My dad thinks money can buy me. He's spending so much money trying to hurt me behind my back. everyday he looks at me with an expression and speak as if he own me. He flash his checks in my face and tell me he can buy whatever he want. I get a second chance in life. He has no conscious and don't care about anything. He purchased a dog for 200 dollars and refuse to bring him in the house and it's freezing cold outside. it even snowed outside. he buys the dog food and because it's his money the dog life don't matter. I am like the dog mom. I love dogs and I'm a complete animal lover. he tells me the dog can be a snow dog. My dad always feel he can damage your life and use his money to bail you out. Im not a payoff. It's wrong how he does people. I don't even trust him and never did. All cares about is his money. He do very slick things behind your back and look in your face with no conscious. all my life he tried to own me with money. This is too much greed. He even calls me stupid. My family is extremely toxic and triggering. They don't know I have PTSD. I try to hold it together by sitting in this room by myself. I try to tell him not to do bad things he refuse to listen and tell me he got money for a lawyer. I asked him to stop by the store and gets some food because his greed is getting bad. He tells me "Is it money"? " I am out chasing money.

Is there any sort of shelter you can put the dog or create for him at all? Anything with a roof and a side or 2? If you have hay, that creates warmth. We used it in Kansas when I was voluntering a rescue.

I'm sorry. That sounds horrible! :hug:

Financial control is a common abuse tactic to keep you tied to them and so they have something to hang over your head latter on. I wouldn't be surprised if that was your dads motivation. Him in a possible future "I paid for this and not only am I not going to let you forget it I am going to hold it over your head so that you will do what I want."

When I was growing up, it was perfectly acceptable for dogs to spend most of their time outdoors as long as they had adequate shelter from the elements. I am not sure when that changed. It really comes down to the breed whether or not being out in the snow was a problem, but they need love too.

He has a big house thingy but there are holes inside it that allows the air to come into it. His water even freezes in there. He's a pitbull but he loves the cold but not this kind of cold. I even go out in the snow and feed him. My dad is only destroying his self. I don't want to be bought.

My dad is hateful and him and the dog don't get along because he keeps meddling him. My dog sniffs the food my dad gives him and sometimes never eat it. My dad buys the dog dogfood and still complains about the price. He will say I'm feeding him too fast or "the bag of dog food gone already"? it's all about control. A dog eats everyday that seems to bother him. He always talk about he spent over a thousand dollars in food for him.

Blankets at least? Even one to go over the house to keep the air from flowing.

I own a pitbull that is my service dog in training. They are such amazing dogs! It's sad but I have seen it all in the rescues I've volunteered with.

A pitbull is very different than say a malamute or a saint barnard.So yes, I would be concerned about him being out in the cold.

I would love to put cover over it but he told me no.

I normally would advise making an anonymous call to animal control, but pitbulls don't fair well from those calls due to the stigma of the breed.

but he told me no.

I'd go sneak one out there tonight but that's just me.

I had to do very bad things to animals in my past so i understand the feeling.

Chopper doesn't have a coat as we are in Florida and it rarely if ever gets cold enough for one but if i lived up north id have one for him and some booties.
