This environment is not good for that Dog, get her a nice cage away from public view where she wont have contact with people and only free her at night.

the dog was obviously not socialized, and I can tell she stays on that chain for too long

Dear OP,

Dogs are pack animals. They move around in packs and they usually develop bad habits and tempermental issues when they are isolated and lonely. Dog Socialization is all you need.
Start by taking your dog on short walks around your neighbourhood, then gradually allow your dog to meet other dogs. (Ask the other dogs owners first). This will help your dog to adapt and differentiate the different activities in your neighbourhoo, like motorcycle and car sounds and horns, joggers and kids running around and other dogs.

My dogs were creating a lot of ruckus and destroying my things until I joined a dogs connect group and started socializing them.
You can thank me later.

I concur with this. Majority of dog owners in Nigeria don't know the importance of socialization. It should be one of the first things you do when you get a pup. Socializing your dog doesn'tean it won't do what it's suppose to do when the need arises (if you've got the correct breed with working characteristics)

I also suspect that you dog has not been trained. Does it obey basic obedience commands? I would recommend you watch Victoria Stillwel's videos on YouTube. Would be a nice guide for you.

Wish you good luck with your dog
