Should I Be Worried About My Dad Abusing His Girlfriends Dog?

[Cindy1302]

My dad owns a house in Arizona, and he owns one here in Oregon. He's in Arizona more though. He recently got a new girlfriend, and I think she said she has a dog. Well, my dad believes in physical discipline, but he doesn't own a dog, thank god. I had a dog who passed away 3 years ago. She was not very well behaved. I just didn't do my best at training her if im being completely honest. One time we were on my dad's deck, and my dog was very excited, and she wouldn't calm down. My dad grabbed her neck, and squeezed or something, and she yelped. My brother was there too, and we were like what the heck, and called him out on it. Another time I was at my dads house and I had my dog tied up while we were working outside, and my dog kept whining. My dad was like "boy, if that was my dog, I'd kick her so hard in the chest she couldn't breath". I brought that up to him recently, and he denied saying it. Should I be worried?

There is never any point of worrying about anything until it actually happens.

Just be the best person that YOU can be.

No. You only think the girlfriend has a dog, you don't know that she has. You don't know how your dad would treat any animal, judging him on something he said years ago. There is no point in looking for problems, manufacturing issues - that serves no purpose.

Your family from what you claim all abuse animals.
Are you sure you are safe perhaps you should talk to a teacher
