Re: What do you do when you have a partner who doesn't liste
well i lost my american bully to a car...
our road was busy ( washington street in easton sully) and he NEVER left the yard..lived there 5 yrs...he knew ...BUT that ONE time that another dog was loose and running down the road he saw it through the window...my son opened the door to grab something off the porch and the dog went flying by him ( the dog NEVER did this )
cars go fast on that road...he was hit by a car going about 40...he flew through the air and hit a tree...sorry for the graphics...it was weeks ..of pain meds, surgeries, money..and in the end he still died ..the injuries were too much..
cant ever count on what the dog wont do...he was super trained, behaved like a prince..it just struck him wrong that day and there he went
maybe you could write it all down to hubby? i know saying ti hasnt worked...but maybe write it all in a letter or email where he can sit and read it without feeling the need to argue...be nice and explain every point and say that you are just afraid and could he please try to understand
youd be surprised what that can do..a letter or email takes the defensiveness, arguing and snappyness out of it totally...maybe email him while at work? or write the letter and when hes doing something quiet and in a good mood nicely say could you please read this? and walk away ...dont be anywhere around him so that he cant say anything he just has to read
it works !
