"He is in my opinion to big for the house, and doesn't hold it in. one of the last days in the house was while i was moving in. he was laying down, stood up peed in his bed, walked around the room peeing in a big L. He never barkes, just goes when he wants, I couldn't take it after that! Not to mention that he broke his kennel the first day. Hes a big strong Dog and needs to be outdoors."
AND YOU ONLY TRIED HIM IN THE HOUSE FOR A WEEK??? I do not think you are being fair to the dog here. YOU NEED MORE THAN A WEEK TO GET A DOG TRAINED. A dog needs constant training, reenforcement of good behaviors, which is hard to accomplish when both you and your DH work all day. Don't blame FIDO here.
Pitts, Rottweilers, Shepards, all have bad raps for being mean dogs, ask your mail carrier which dog was listed as the top biter... the black lab took that honor.
I think you are being very selfish with chaining the dog outside, after only giving him a 1/2 assed chance for a week being in the house, an option is to build him an enclosure or get the invisible fence. I can fully appreciate feeling like the dog is a large piece of furry furniture with feet around the house, but if he was a house pet before you came, and now you banish him to the outside, YES YOU ARE BEING CRUEL.
In some states like GA, you cannot chain a Pit either full or Mix. You may want to be honest with your vet with pics about the living conditions of your pet, I feel your neighbor has a legitimate gripe if he is a barker, there are ways to deal with this, GET A DOG TRAINER for not only your sanity but this way before you do decide to "give him away" you will know that you have tried everything, Pets are NOT disposable.
