That's cold. Even leaving the dog in a cage while you're out is better than dumping it completely.

replace the carpet with hardwood laminate, get the dog back, and this time don't be a bitch :^)

Bumber op. My dog did exactly this for a couple years and now he is the best dog i will ever have. Some dogs get upset when mom and dad leave. They do grow out of it.

Maybe try finding a little older dog or get a little lap dog or a cat next time?

Some dogs dont mind being crated when they are used to it. My mom and stepdad got a doberman and a great dane in big crates they tied together. They spend half the day in it with the door open...

dogs really aren't very bright, say, like a cat or a pig. A woman on youtube had her dogs trained so that one would open the gate to the small pen, the other would go inside, then the outside dog would lock it. They could take turns being jailer and prisoner.

You need carpet seem tape a seem iron seem cutter and a seem tracker to do a proper job. Good luck patching in a huge square though if posable cut it so you are doing a section of the room not just the damaged square even some professionals would have trouble making a big square seemed in look good.

Your post says the exact opposite.

So you're going to try and replace an 8x7 section of carpet? You'll have to rent a knee kicker from the home improvement store, and possibly a seamer; buy seaming tape and install to the existing tack strips.

Protip: Carpet comes on 12 foot wide rolls and unless its a remnant (already cut up) you're gonna buy a 12 foot wide section by however long you need. Add 3 inches to whatever length you're buying to ensure you have enough to seam, and tack stretch.

Carpet is cheaper than you think, its about $3.00 a square foot and if you replace the entire room, you may not need any seaming tape, but you'll still need to get a kicker or power stretcher to get it installed.

Similarly, come clean with your landlord and see if he'll be fine with you installing laminate at $2-3 a sq foot.

If the landlord buy into the laminate idea, check out lumber liquidators and you can find some laminate for $0.30-$0.60/square. You'll end up pulling the base boards (may require paint) and need some foam padding at 10-20 cents per square, but you and the wife can install it in a weekend.

This. Though harbor freight has all the tools you need for under 150. Just carpeted my house and they we're good enough. Likely the carpet seam will look like ass with different dye lots right on the middle of the room, might be worth to just redo the whole room. Would likely be under 600$ plus you'd have the tools for the future.

Also, get rid of your dog. Dogs are stupid fucking animals that do nothing to improve your life and you're retarded if you think otherwise. It doesn't care about you and can't conceptualize about the past or the future, ie it doesn't want you, doesn't love you, and won't remember you if you leave it. Or keep it if you like paying out the ass stupid shit like this on the regular.
