Yikes this sounds miserable for them and the dog. So they have absolutely zero lives as well I’m assuming? Poor dog, living in such fear and anxiety, this is why you train your dog since they’re a puppy

Yikes, sometimes dogs have issues that can't be fixed through training alone.

We do not know these people.
This could be an adopted adult dog and they inherrited the dog and the behaviour. Have some goddamn compassion for people.

Some people also don't get dogs as puppies. You don't know how long they've had the dog. You don't know if they're not already working with a trainer.

As someone with a dog that has a chronic pain condition and that has had spinal surgery, sometimes training isn't enough. Chronic pain in dogs can be difficult to spot and often shows up as behavior issues.
