Girl I worked with had a big dog, it weighed maybe 70lbs. I forget the breed. Several years ago she had him neutered. She always said she felt terrible that his nuts were taken off. So she brought him to a vet and had artificial nuts surgically attached to him. She said her dog was much happier now with his fake nuts.

Another coworker had some lap/toy dog. Said her dog refused to drink any water unless it was cold. Either cold bottle water or ice water. Dog always refused to drink room temperature water.

Bring them on airplanes, in restaurants, grocery stores and every other place dogs don't belong. And I don't mean service dogs, I mean "emotional support dogs."

My sister in law bought my dog little puppy socks for Christmas for her paws. She knew the animal would hate them, but thought it was funny, so now, whenever my dog is being really bad, instead of just swatting her, I put her in her "punishment socks" and she hates life until she can either get them off or I take them off of her.

I mean, I'm not going to lie. There are times I'm like, "oh yea, you're a dog"

my dog is like my child/buddy, but I don't take him everywhere with me

Neuticles - google them


I hear so much weird stuff all the time I really have to think hard about individual examples as most of it doesn't even phase me anymore. Most examples have to do with people humanizing their pets.

I'll never understand the people that put clothes on a dog... adopt a kid or something, you freak.

My boxer refuses to drink out of his bowl also. Probably because he drools so much. He walks to the bathroom and wants fresh water from the tub faucet. I don't blame him though.

The other day I was stopped behind this woman with her little dog hanging out the driver's side window. She was having trouble holding it. So I started calling the dog. It almost made it out the car. She had it by the back legs hanging on the side of the car.


I know it was a TDM, but don't hang your damn dog out the driver's side window

Yes, people do weird stuff with their pets. Sometimes it's ignorant, but your opinion holds no water if you're ignorant enough to think dogs have no human-like qualities. And the thought that we humans aren't animals and our emotions are purely human experiences is a primal dark ages way of thinking.

Some dogs are stupid, just like people, but some are amazing and have the depth of thought and emotion that human children have. Every time someone says "it's just a dog," then I know not to attempt any conversation with that person that will require any thought beyond small talk.

My dog lives like a dog and doesn't get any special treatment from me.

ETA: lives outside during the day
Eats pro-plan
Gets a bath maybe 1 time a month
Isn't allowed on furniture

He's happy as frick

Spend more money on anything for the dog than it costs to replace the dog; this is something I've never really quite understood. I certainly don't begrudge people their pleasure in pet ownership and doing such things, I've just never really understood it.
