Apartment dogs

I’m mostly frustrated with the girl with the German shepherd because she doesn’t do ANYTHING. She doesn’t say no, she doesn’t try to redirect him, she just stands there and lets him go crazy while I’m desperately trying to get my puppy to look at me, stay with me, and he’s shaking and so stressed he won’t take a treat.

He has peed in the house more than once because if I open the door and they are out there, I just turn back around and try to wait a few minutes. But yes we are leaving. There are also many houses that are cheaper to rent than this apartment complex with the fancy pool/clubhouse/gym things. I will be saving money to move out of the apartment complex and into a house.

But I agree I’m not really being fair. I just am frustrated and wish people would train their dogs and that my puppy wasn’t so scared of everything. We have made a lot of progress though and I hope he will do even better when we don’t live here anymore.
