SO I recently got an 8 week old german shepherd puppy, he does normal puppy things like peeing where he isn't suppose to because he isn't trained yet and trying to chew on everything because he's teething and still has his baby teeth. of course my mum overreacts, panics that he's completely out of control and somehow thinks one morning the puppy was trying to savagely maul her to death (more like playful nipping) and contacts our dog trainer to come the next day instead of next week.

so he comes to our house the next day, meets the puppy and assess his temperament, he literally finds nothing wrong and tells us the puppy has a calm personality and is well behaved. he gave me some training tips and what to teach him, and also kindly let me borrow his crate to start crate training the puppy. at first my mum was all for this, however when it came to crating him tonight and putting him to sleep in it she again overreacts due to him obviously whining due to not being used to being in a crate, saying how cruel it is and that i'm torturing him and it's "animal abuse." after reading one or two articles online about it. of course i'm beyond annoyed at my mums bullshit and rip into her, at this point she's even denying the dog trainer ever said that i should be crate training him and putting him in there at night and that "i'm lying." yet the dog trainer explicitly said he left the crate for me to put him in there only at night.

what the fuck is wrong with her? just so you know i've had two dogs in the past and they grew to complete fucked up dangerous out of control dogs because i listened to my mum and followed her advice on how to train them. this time i am not listening to what she is trying to tell me to do and how to train him. i don't give a shit if she thinks putting him in a cozy large crate with all his toys and a soft blanket to sleep on is cruel to her, i'm following the professional dog trainers advice and not my mums because she is not a professional dog trainer and doesn't know shit. it's like she WANTS to mess up all my dogs on purpose?

    Your mom is probably just a Borderline or Narcissist dumbass.

    The way your mum is not listening to reason, ect reminds me of how my dad would act. She sounds narcissistic, but I'd say it's normal for a parent.

    I'd say you should just continue to train the dog properly, and avoid engaging with her too much about it.

    Your mum is wrong, for sure. But there's not much you can do about it because it's her house. When you get your own place you can train your dogs well, and then when she sees how well trained they are she will realise and change her attitude.

      according to her she's never wrong though. whenever she tries telling false information I try to educate and correct her, to her that's me talking back to her and arguing with her because I "hate her" apparently. she's literally told me I should just shut my mouth and agree with everything she says and she told me she doesn't care if she's wrong or not.

        Ugh. That's annoying. Sorry that this is how it is for you. I don't know your situation, but could it be that as you've grown up and become smarter and more knowledgable, she's become a bit threatened by you because you call her out on stuff?

        How old are you, is it realistic that you could move out soon? And would it be soon enough that your dog will still take to some new training?

        I would be tempted to take her advice to the letter and just shut up and nod along with her. Everytime she pushes your buttons just nod and smile, and imagine your wonderful future in your own house with your huge pack of well trained dogs that will do your bidding.
