"I love the dog and I truly feel she will tone down as she ages"

You've probably heard your dog whine at least once if you own one or have ever had one. Dogs also employ whining as a form of communication, but since energy and body language are a dog's major means of expression, the development of whining denotes a greater degree of excitement and need on the part of the dog.

Dogs whine to express their emotional, psychological, or physical states, and not all whines are the same. Whining is not a dog's preferred form of speech, but because humans talk constantly, it is possible for a dog to catch up on this and begin vocalizing itself.

When a dog whines a lot and we don't handle it properly, it could develop into an undesirable behavior. Redditor u/Dangerous-Revenue130 and the wife grew up with dogs their entire lives and got a breed they were used to and familiar with.

But then, the dog wasn't what they had expected, as it was extremely energetic, incredibly anxious, and whines nonstop. Also, the dog won't leave anyone alone under any circumstances.

The OP got attached to her immediately, but his wife has understandably had a very hard time opening up to her as there have been countless occurrences of the dog tripping the OP's wife up. Of course, the wife wanted the dog rehomed, but the OP wasn't in support of that idea. 

The Story's Title

The dog is constantly under foot whining and wanting to be held

The OP's not sure why but he has a hard time staying awake and it's been this way for a few weeks

As usual, the comments rolled in and here are some of the top ones

Get yourself to a doctor first

You want your wife to he responsible for a dog and three kids

She's probably tired as well but there she goes

She doesn't need to worry about the dog too

This Redditor doubts the dog is good on leash

Upholding your side of the deal

She wants nothing to do with the dog

Do you think she's sleeping well with everything going on?

The dog isn't what either of you hoped for

Your wife has clearly stated where she stands on this

You need to see a doctor

Your wife is indicating that she's nearing the rope end

This redditor wants the OP to read his own post

You admit she already doesn't want the dog

You did not follow her decision

This is why you need to pick a dog based on personality

You want to keep the dog without addressing her issues

You should learn to pull your weight

Communication is the issue here

It's simple to find a dog's whining attractive, but if we ignore the causes and instead offer a whining dog our instant attention and affection, we will just train our dogs to whine constantly, which can result in other undesirable behaviors like persistent barking. As you can already tell, the OP got the AH verdict, and you can drop your own verdict in the comments section below.
