My husband choked my dog, and head butted her along with hitting her several times. he thought she had peed on the bed, floor, and sofa when in reality it was him that was peeing everywhere (he was under the influence of prescription drugs and weed). i tried protecting her, but was unable too she tried nipping him but she was so helpless. thank God she doesn’t have any injuries but i just want to make sure she is ok mentally. i feel so horrible that this happend to her, i wish he would have done those things to me or an object in the room!
Is my dog going to be ok?

Getting The Best Dog Bed
If you own a dog, especially an older one, getting a good dog bed is a really great gift to give your beloved pet. The need a good place to rest and sleep just like us. After all, you wouldn't want to bed down in an uncomfortable mattress or sleep on a hard surface all night.
Sleeping on the floor or even on a bad or uneven bed isn't the best thing for a dog to do. As they get older it becomes even more important that they have a really good dog bed to sleep in.
The other reason to get a dog bed is, of course, to keep them off of yours or off of the best couch in the house. If you don't want them all over your furniture, get them a comfortable bed of their own that they will love and use for a long time.
From the simplest dog beds to the more elaborate types, there are many to choose from. Some are more or less like large bean bags, some are donuts or round pet beds. There are also bolster dog beds, which have sort of a pillow going all around the outer edge of the bed. Dogs like to use this as a pillow for their head while they sleep. Then there is the orthopedic dog bed and memory foam beds, which are among the best you can get.
There are also outdoor dog beds which are made for outdoor areas like the back porch and there are also heated dog beds. These are great for dogs, especially during the cold winter months. Even when you have the heat in the house cranked up, the floor can sometimes stay cold and it's not good for your dogs bones and joints. A heated dog bed will keep your canine pal comfy and warm the whole time like a warm blanket.
Another option you may want to look into is getting a waterproof dog bed. We have all taken our dog out for a walk when it is raining and wet outside. Whether we want to or not, we have to go out on those miserable days when the rain is pouring and we both get soaked. After a good towel dry, dogs still have some moisture left on their coat and skin. The nice part about a waterproof dog bed is that your dog can lay on this type of pet bed without getting it soaked on the inside where the water stays put. These beds are made for this so they do not get ruined every time your water soaked pooch rests on them. For those dogs that prefer to stay out on the porch or outside near their kennel or dog house, they are much happier on a waterproof bed than a conventional one that soaks up the water. It's not only a comfortable resting spot for sleeping and lying down, but it will last longer too.
Not all dog beds are the same just as not all dogs age the same. When your dog gets older, he or she will most likely develop the same types of aches and pains due to joint problems that humans do. When your dog starts to slow down due to joint pain, inflammation and arthritis, the best thing you can do is to look into getting them a memory foam dog bed.
As soon as your are aware that you dog is suffering from orthopedic issues, the floor is simply not a good place for them to sleep. Even a conventional dog bed just will not do. The even balance of a dog's weight is more important at this stage of their life than at any time before. A bumpy or uneven bed is not good for the existing joint pain and can actually worsen the dog's problems over time.

you need to find that dog a new home. he will hurt the dog again and after he kills it. he ll start hurting you. my friend had a husband who did the same and used drugs as an excuse,killed the dog and then went after her, luckily he died of a drug overdose.

you need to divorce this man and marry someone who isnt an idiot.
May 20th, 2010 - 4:36 am
yes your dog will be fine, my dog is just a puppy and my father and brother do the same to my poor dog thinking they are only "playing" around, my puppy is only a little shituzu
May 20th, 2010 - 4:36 am
OK WOW umm if the dog dosent show any problems today or tomarrow then it sould be fine its unlikely any mentel problems but im no vet ;~D

You need to call the authorities on that man. He’ll soon be hurting you or outright killing your dog.
Your puppy will be SCARRED by this incident and the sooner you get that guy out of your life, the better it will be for you and your pup.

Personally I would get away from him if I were you, it’s been well documented that animal abusers are human abusers.
Sounds like the dog is alright, might want to take her to a vet to make sure.

You need to not have a human being or pet around this man, and if you can not help defend this poor dog than you should no longer be around this pet either. give the pet to a home that would love and treasure it. and if it happens again i suggest calling animal control on your husband instead of someone calling them on you and having both of you go to jail. this truly disturbs and upsets me deeply.
for the dog, yes this can cause mental issues, trust with males, becoming aggressive, so on and so forth!

Your husband sounds like a douche bag! Sorry if thts too blunt but you need to rehome your dog that’s abuse yous should also re home yourself and call the cops on that jerk.

I am PRAYING that this isn’t a real-life situation
what you have described is ABUSE..
you should call the police & file a report against your husband
if for no other reason than to have it on file in case he does this same crap to you
NO, please do not wish he did them to you…
and Object sure, wish it upon an object, but not on any living thing
FILE REPORT WITH POLICE
if this is real then you and the dog (plus any kids) need to leave this man!!
If is capable & willing to do this to the dog, then who is next?… You, the kids, the dog again?
There is no way to make sure she is okay mentally….
only time will tell.. some dogs do not recover very well from something like this
hopefully she is a very forgiving dog with no previous incidences of abuse
and, hopefully she will emotionally & mentally recover from this incident
If she spends time hiding from your husband.. let her… she needs to work thru this
If she growls or bares her teeth at him… he deserves it & she is only warning him
It might be best to not force any contact between him & her until enough time has passed that she is trying to extend trust to him again
If you are unwilling to leave him, then please do the dog a favor and love this dog enough… to find it a completely loving home where it can feel safe 100% of the time and not be at risk that he might have another "episode"

divorce … if he did this in front of you who knows what he is going behind your back … people who injure animals have a psychological issue that you can not help by being the punching bag to protect your pet … your husband is not going to get better with your soft attitude and will progress to worse acts of violence if you let him … take a look at this video of a boyfriend walking his girlfriend’s dog … just think, this could be your husband when you are not looking … don’t watch if you are truly sickened by animal abuse …

I must say that your question is rather disturbing! Your husband clearly abused an animal over use of drugs and meds is not an excuse. If your dog is acting fine and no injuries that you can see, then physically he will be ok. But mentally your dog will not. He will begin to fear your husband most likely develop some bad behaviors due to being abused.
You were also abused in this situation by having to experience an innocent animal being hurt by someone you trusted enough to marry. You really need to leave that relationship and find safety for you and your dog. Home is supposed to be a safe zone and it sounds as though yours is not.
LEAVE your husband!

No way to tell. She may have internal injuries. Take the dog to the vet and murder your freaking husband. Not necessarily in that order
