What do i do about her...?

i have a dog i love very much but my mom is very abusive. and she hits him for no reason and screams at him and chokes him with his leash. my mom is very bitchy and hard headed so please do not suggest talking to her about it. i have already tried and it does not work at all. and please do not say re-home him or any of that nonsense. just because my stupid mom does not like him doesn't mean i want to give him away. thanks. i appreciate your help.
Answers:
In situations like these, you need to put your feelings aside and think about the dog's well-being. You say that you don't want to hear us tell you to "re-home him or any of that none sence," but you need to realize that it is the dog's best interest that matters in this situation, and not yours. If you truly cared about the dog, you would not let it continue to suffer your mother's abuse. I tell you this because even if you do not want to voluntarily give up your dog, they will take it away from you if the authorities were to find out about this abuse, and it would be alot worse for you, and your mother. If you really don't want to lose your dog, let her know what can happen if she continues with her nasty behavior (*hint-hint*). That should hopefully persuade her to treat the dog a bit more appropriately.
tell ur mom to **** off and say wat if that was u
Just bcoz ur mom does that doesn't mean u have 2 give him away jjust try and keep ur dog away from her and if its really possible lock it in your room when u go out or take it with u so she can't do anything to it!
This is not what you want to hear, but if what you say is true and there's no hope of change...placing him in a new home is the kindest thing to do. Do you think a friend or family member would take him, so you could visit him? Other than that, find out what is making your mom so upset. Explain to her that teaching is key...the dog doesn't learn anything at all from being mistreated. Can you take him to obedience classes?

ETA: Is this the little Chihuahua or Chihuahua mix you posted about a day ago? If so, is he neutered? If not, can you find a free to low cost program in your area and have it done? That will reduce or eliminate his desire to mark. You could also try crate training...he may protest at first, but I've never known of a dog who didn't adjust and eventually come to love having their own 'den'. Another thought, if she's mistreating him and he's submissive urinating...she's making it way worse. He could even have a medical explanation, a urinary tract infection or something else going on. Would she take him to a vet?
If your Mom is abusing your animal and won't stop you have 2 choices as I see it , well maybe 3. One is report her to the police and have her charged with animal cruelty. Two is re-home your animal because you need to do what is best for the DOG not what is best for you and three is make sure that you or someone else always has control of the dog to insure that Mom never gets her mean,bitchy,animal abusing hands on him . Your Mom should be strung by her toenails for doing that to a poor defenseless animal and I don't know how old you are but you are that dog's only defender and if you can't protect it because your a child, the dog has to be taken out of the situation. It is not fair to the dog to have to live like that. An animal does not understand that kind of behavior. Thanks
I'm sorry, to hear that, i hope ur dog okay. Try, to get him away from her. But, why does she do that?
stop thinking about yourself and think about the dog. He shouldn't have to live like that and the most loving thing you could do for him would be to find him a new home where people won't be choking him and hitting him. Wait until you're old enough to get your own place and then get yourself a dog. If you love your dog like you say you do, then do the right thing and find him a loving home.
