I'll be blunt-- I feel sorry for any animal in your dysfunctional household. Sounds as if it's way past time for some family counseling. Seriously.

Poor dog.

Be kind. Don't take your anger out on the dog -- it's not his fault. Pups can be taxing and exhausting even if you love them to death.

Find out why your daughter is so irresponsible and your wife hasn't taken your feelings into consideration. Seems as if there's a lot of stress and you're feeling frustrated and powerless.

Sending my best wishes and condolences.
