How can I teach my dog to be less submissive?
He never has his tail up except when I walk him, in the house it's always cradling his rear (though not fully withdrawn, thank god). He'll lick me incessantly when I'm on the computer, from my thighs to the bottom of my shoes. He's a generally very timid little guy and I want a dog I can box with and play around with like my Rottweilers back home, but as soon as I start giving him any force he goes belly-up
He grew up in my grandma's house where her style of raising him was the tried-and-true "scream shrilly and smack the shit out of him whenever he pooped-peed in the house"

Oh, and he'll just stand there, against my leg. Making sure there's contact. He just stands there! Truly pitiable
H's a red-nosed pitt, seven months old at this point
Look up confidence building training on YouTube, and you're just over all going to have to work extra hard on socializing him due to the abuse. Good luck anon
the weak should fear the strong
Get a stuffed animal
