I want to get rid of my dog

Owning a dog is my biggest regret in life. My dog is 6.5 years old. I adopted him from streets when he was a pup. I made a huge blunder at that time by being playful with him. Walking him outside is the biggest nightmare for me. Letting him defecate is the most difficult thing. He doesn't defecates at home. He poops and urinates only outside. I get abused by people for letting him defecate. My dog is afraid of vehicles, so I take him in areas where there are less vehicles. There are all houses around. That means I will always get abused by people if they find me walking my dog around their home. They tell me don't take your dog for defecation here. I don't know where should I walk him. His usual place for defecation has been infested with tall grass, snakes and bushes since monsoon began. If my dog could defecate at home, I wouldn't have to listen to abuses from others. I wish I never had him. I don't know how do I make him poop at home. I have to rise at early morning just because of dog and that is not good for my sleep. I don't know where do I hand over my dog. Nobody would accept my dog. If I hand over my dog to shelter homes, he will be hungry and can die. I am too faint hearted to take out his life.

That poor baby, why can't you get a dog trainer for someone to show you how to care for your fur baby? Or a dog walker to take some stress from you. I absolutely love dogs and find this difficult to read as your fur baby can sense everything you're feeling, the poor pup looks at you as it's Mom. Reach out ask for help. I'm sure you'll feel much better if you do. I wish you and your fur baby the best.🐶☘️

I don't know what country you're in, JETAE, but - all I typed to get these was "dog training forums" : https://www.petforums.co.uk/forums/dog-training-and-behaviour.11/ https://dogforum.co.uk/forums/dogbehaviourandtraining/ You also need to buy those poop-collecting bags that you wear like a glove so you can't make hand-contact. Pet shops sell them - or online, like Amazon. Hope that helps!

@curlylocks I don't have enough money to afford a dog trainer or dog walker. I regret my decision of keeping a street dog as a pet. I cannot go back in time and undo my mistake. My dog wants to roam outside 2-3 times a day while other pets are content with 1 walk a day which lasts 20 minutes. Look, I am not a free person. My parents are aged people who cannot even walk my dog frequently. I don't have wife and kids. My main problem is his defecation habits. He often prefers to poop near someone's home and due to him I get abused. It often happens that whenever I take him to am empty area with tall grass and bushes, he refuses to defecate there. I just want to make him poop at home otherwise life will be very difficult for me. More and more people are building their homes in our area that means I will lose the empty areas where I am comfortable to take my dog.
