By training your dog, you set a few boundaries for it to operate within. Training in no way limits your dog from enjoying life at its full potential. It is a way of being obedient. Yes, dogs are very sociable and they love to play, you do not want them to compromise on any of that but in overall terms, training your dog to be slightly responsible with the way it conducts its actions. Now that sounds like a solution every dog owner wants to achieve it makes like easy. Just because your dog is having the zoomies, you don’t want it to take a dump on the floor in excitement, you still want it to inform you. I know, a weird example but it gets the point across.
Training a dog is a proper challenge because you have to apply different strategies according to the dog breed, and there are over 300 recognized dog breeds in the world. And it also is a very costly process to get your dog trained by a trainer, costly in terms of man hours, money, and your own effort to make sure the dog doesn’t slip after being trained. Once your dog is trained, you want anyone who is at your house to follow certain procedures and guidelines while interacting with the dog because they tend to forget quickly and it is important to keep the training fresh in their minds.

I think the point to take from this text is the thing OP said about not saying a command more than once.

Two untrained dogs mean the parents were never into dog training.

I would say OP is the AH in this case. I mean, first of all, the fact that she broke up with her boyfriend to get a dog, I still can’t get over it. What sort of a requirement is that and how on Earth did it get fulfilled?
Second of all, the sidenote was really helpful in deciding that OP was the AH. OP shared that her parent has 2 dogs at the house who are not trained at all. That means her parents were never into the complexities of training a dog and the whole training environment would make them uncomfortable. OP should’ve known about this and shouldn’t have overreacted at her parents not complying with the procedures and guidelines to keep the dog trained.

“This is the same dog. My friend adopted her after she just showed up on her porch. She had to have all her teeth removed, she had a giant sore on her leg and under her tail, and she was a giant matted mess. I groomed her and made her brand-new babe, feeling so fresh and clean.”
