OP agreed to look after their friend’s unneutered dog, Monster, for five weeks while their friend was away. They quickly realized that Monster lacked discipline and structure, with no routine, poor behavior on walks, and no manners at home. After a week of chaos, OP implemented a strict routine and training regimen for Monster, which resulted in significant improvements in his behavior and demeanor by the end of the five weeks. However, when the friend returned, they were upset, accusing OP of “breaking his spirit” and “changing his personality,” despite the positive changes in Monster’s behavior.
1. OP asks whether he’s an A-hole for teaching a friend’s dog some manners, let’s see what users have to say.

2. OP’s friend had a work project in Australia for 3 weeks so she asked OP to look after her dog. OP says the dog was a complete trouble.
3. OP mentioned the dog as a monster and the dog had no routine and was quite untrained. Monster used to pee every 2 meters and wanted to play all the time.
4. Moreover, Monster didn’t have a bed he used to sleep wherever he wanted to and he didn’t even have a toilet command. OP was fed up due to his behavior so OP decided to teach this mischievous dog a lesson.

5. Monster somehow got a clue what was going on and as time passed Monster was pleasant to be with OP you would be surprised to know that he was walking on the heel and was listening to commands such as sleeping in a crate and only playing when given the release command.
6. OP got him involved in the same routine as his dog and the results were astonishing.
7. Now OP’s friend is upset because she thinks OP has broken his spirit and changed his personality. OP wants to know whether he’s an A-hole for teaching the dog some manners.
8. On point and I agree with this user and by the way OP is by no doubt NTA.

9. Exactly, she was the one who asked OP to dogsit and if the dog was not trained according to OP then it wasn’t his headache to deal with he had to make him behave according to him.
10. Hehe OP is like a free dogsitter as well as an awesome dog trainer.
11. Remember “You can’t reason with idiocy”.
12. She needs to realize this I would say this would be the best advice for OP’s friend.

13. I think the same what about you ladies and gentlemen?
14. Not even a single person said OP is the A-hole and we know why.
15. This is hilarious but yeah a lot of users asked OP if they can give their dogs to OP for some time to get them trained.

16. Some logical explanation for the situation.
17. Well, now she won’t have anyone to look after Monster next time she’s going anywhere.
18. How many more explanations and validations are needed? None I would say.
19. The friend needs to grow up and realize now the dog’s spirit is fixed.
20. The dog is at zero fault here but the owner is
