Ok Bailey is doing good on many fronts and in many respects is a well rounded young dog. the things he is doing are causing alot of conflict and trouble.
<span style='font-size: 14pt'>Pee-</span> Bailey gets walked all the time but will pee on the floors when no one is around. Sometimes he shows no signs of needing to go out. No sniffing the floor, walking in cirlces or sitting or sniffing by the front door but still he pee's on the floor.
<span style='font-size: 14pt'>Poop-</span> Bailey has been giving some trouble with pooping on the kitchen floor or anywhere around the house. He has no problem showing the signs of needing to go out to pee or poop and more then half the time he does display the signs and goes outside. The past week or so my wife has been taking him out as usual but he won't do anything, then comes in the house and will do his business on the floor
<span style='font-size: 14pt'>Blood-</span> Bailey has been jumping up on my wife and sons alot. He scratches them and nips at them and draws blood. I know his nails need to be kept short and they are but he is also nipping at the kids on their faces and puncturing skin. My son has a puncture on his face and this is a concern for me.
I talked to the kids about how Bailey is pretty much just a kid like they are and means no harm. He see's the kids playing or wrestling and comes over to jon in and tries to jump in the fun but his sharp teeth and claws are getting in the way. I told them that he just wants to play along with them and would never hurt them intentionally.
<span style='font-size: 14pt'>Tears-</span>This morning and many other mornings its the same thing. I work at night and sleep in the day and when the rest of the family is getting up I am going to lay dow to sleep. Usually all I hear is Bailey, NO Bailey, sit Bailey, Down. Stop biting me. Owe he scratched me. blah blah blah. Then I hear i'm gonna kill this freaking down if he bites me again. I"m gonna kick this dog. I"m gonna do this. I'm gonna do that and its frustrating.
This morning my wife was not in a great mood as all of us have had before but today was tough. Bailey was nipping at everyone, tipped over a full bowl of food and when my wife walked away to help with the kids and then I hear her gagging and almost puking because of the loads of crap all over the floor and the hwole bowl of dry dog food scattered all over the floor. She's in tears and i'm not happy that this stuff is going on but I understand completely and don't want my family that upset, but I want them to learn how to live with Bailey and have Bailey do the right thing.
Bailey does none of these things to me and i've told everyone what they need to do and they have seen what works and doesn't work but no one seems to do the same things I do. I know not everyone can do things the same way I do but I wish that I could get everyone on the same page.
Any advice? <span style="color: #FF0000"><span style='font-size: 17pt'>PLEASE?!?!</span></span>
