Just truly a piece of shit. The most powerful man in the world can't even bother to get a fucking dog trainer and a dog walker so his large dangerous dog isn't a menace to everyone around it.
Like, there's a lot of important and systemic reasons to hate biden, or to have no respect for biden, but this is an intensely personal distaste of mine. Fucking pathetic.
Also, if this is just Fox making shit up don't tell me because I am savoring this.
Every dog I've ever met has smelled terrible. Even if they're not drooly they're always a little slimy and damp and bad at personal space, whether that's jumping or sticking their noses in my crotch. They're also prone to sudden bursts of ear splitting noises in addition to the horrible smells. Dog people don't usually notice how bad they and their home and their belongings smell because they're used to the dog smell, but let me assure you that I can tell if a dog lives inside a house the second someone opens the door.
I'm sure dogs pick favorites based on quality time like that but they will still like you even if you neglect them, as evidenced by all the dogs kept in outdoor cages in my neighborhood not maiming their owners when they're finally released from dog jail, so it's really not an endorsement of character to have a dog like you. I really don't care for dogs and I've met so many that love me almost instantly anyway.
a dog not attacking someone and a dog liking them are different things altogether
You speak of them as if they’re some alien breed. I hear cats fighting in the streets all the time at night. I don’t mind it. Animals just being animals. Dogs barking is their way of communicating and they have just as much of a right to do so as us, even if sometimes theirs seems a bit aimless. Yeah, shush your dog if it’s barking incessantly, but we make way more noise than them on the daily with our cars, loud music, or even just shouting ‘DINNER!!!!’ to the household. They’re bad at personal space if someone doesn’t train them to respect it. They’re fast learners. The ones that do jump keep jumping in peoples laps because it’s usually met with people fawning over them. It’s the same as a naughty child who has parents who don’t discipline them. Pretty simple classical conditioning can alter a dogs behaviour most of the time unless said behaviour has been learnt through trauma.
When it comes to abuse - many people put up with and love their abusers. How could you expect a dog to know of independence from its owner when it’s never experienced or even seen the possibilities of what goes on between dogs and their owners in other homes. I wouldn’t rag on an abused person for not stabbing their abuser, and I wouldn’t rag on a dog for not biting theirs. Cycles of abuse are incredibly complex.
Yeah I get why they bark and why they behave the way that they do, but those behaviors are super annoying and dog people always act like you're a monster for not loving those loud, smelly, personal space invaders. Rather than trying to understand that sudden barking and horrible smells are not for everyone they just make excuses about it, often while implying that it's the fault of the person who feels that way for having problems with those behaviors.
I have less than zero interest in having kids in part for the same reasons — they're loud, smelly balls of sensory overload that don't understand boundaries, and I'm too autistic to deal with that.
They knew you had a good heart :Care-Comrade:
I love cats but feel the same way about the smell as you do with dogs. As soon as I walk into a house with cats, it's like a sensory bomb of piss and dander. Like I said above, very few people who have dogs, like maybe 5%, should even be allowed to have them. I'd prefer similar strict requirements for all pets including cats. Also, outdoor cats, 100% banned lol. Hoarding pets is more common than a lot of people realize and always results in neglect and abuse.
Yeah those are all problems except the smell I don't get where you're coming from - cats are self cleaning (don't need to be washed regularly like dogs) and unless they're non-neutered male cats they don't piss outside their box. If you have a normal number of cats there really isn't a smell
