My husband and I have a dog named Sugar.
She is Spitz-mix.
We adopted her from a shelter like 4 months or so ago.
The shelter they picked her up as a stray.
And now... we are contemplating taking her back.

This dog is terrified of the leash.
We put the leash on her, and start walking, she PLANTS her paws in the ground and will not move,
and if we try to tug on it (just gentlely...just not hard enough to hurt her) she will pull back against
us and yelp bloody murder like we are choking her to death... I ain't never heard a dog yelp like her before!!!!!!
She actually makes me want to cry when she does it.

We have tried using a harass instead, she acts the same way.
And because she acts this way, we can't take her anywhere, and we are pretty active people.
Out and about a lot. A dog needs to be able to travel with us.
And Sugar simply can't without being on a leash. (Isn't it illegal for dogs to be unleashed in public?)

Last night, my husband, came up with a compromise "if she does good off the leash this next two days, we can keep her."
because she does fine when we take her "outside potty" without a leash, but I don't know about being actually out in public.
Is that a good compromise or no? Should we still get rid of her?

I can't deal with this.... we started talking about our opinions yesterday morning, and I cried all day yesterday,
and I have cried off and on today.
