Alright guys, here's the deal. My roommate is a piece of shit. He's extremely lazy and one of the most disgusting human beings on this planet. He goes to college and works full time, and for some reason, he thought it would be a good idea to get a puppy. He leaves the puppy alone for hours, and in return the puppy often cries and howls when she is alone. He tries to justify leaving the puppy alone by leaving the puppy out of it's cage and roaming in the apartment, where it destroys the place and makes a huge mess. The dog is not fully potty trained, and he's completely given up on that, and lets the dog shit upstairs and doesn't clean it up. He is a terrible pet owner, and the dog would be better off at the pound than it would be living with him.

I want to make this dog the biggest possible problem for him. I want this dog to not listen to a word he says (already kind of that way). I want this dog to make huge messes whenever he leaves it.

My fellow animal lovers of JSP, how can I do this?

You are not an animal lover if you want to make the dog into a problem.

He is your room mate so you can help out, If you are an animal lover you would.

Walk / train the dog.

If I make the dog a problem, there is a chance he will give up and give it away, which would be better for the dog.

I am an animal lover, but I am not a pet owner, and I don't want to be. For the amount of time he is away, I spend more time with his dog. He decided to get a dog without even consulting me, and since he is away all the time it makes it my responsibility to take care of it?

If it were every once in a while I would have no problem with helping out with the dog, but it is every single day.

Maybe it would be best for all involved if the dog should happen to "run away to a better home".

I agree, this dog does need a better home. Unfortunately we live in an apartment, so I can't just say it escaped from the back yard or something.

Do things you're not supposed to do like give him lots of dog treats for nothing. Applaud him when he uses the bathroom inside like hive him treats after his shit

Turning a dog Alpha is a bad move, It will not only be your room mate that suffers you will to.

Bites / pee's where he wants ( including you to say your his byatch :p ) will not end well and if the dog bites a stranger it runs the risk of being put down, If that happens long story short you killed it.

Talk to your room mate about rehoming the dogh or puttinhg more effort in, If nothin is done well i would do as the rest said and steal and rehome it yoursel
