A close friend of the family has a mixed dog that does what she pleases. The dog barks in a ferocious manner when people leave, in a territorial sense. When people have food she's all up in their face and if you even turn for a slight second, she'll nab your food and she is still not disciplined. The dog also has a nasty nasty habit of peeing/pooping in every single room the dog has access too, eating the cat's feces from the litter box - anything she wants, she gets to do. Her owners yell at her when she lays waste inside, or eats cat feces, but not in a manner to have an effect. They let the dog out about every 2 hours for a good 20 minutes. She's always rewarded with treats. There's times that she will come right back in, and go pee/poo somewhere they're not looking. Their house is starting to smell so bad that people just don't want to go over there due to the overwhelming odor. What steps need to be taken to get this dog in order, and to relay the information in a friendly manner?
