Why not spend the 4th shutting the hell up

If a person has something they love and they never open their mouth once to ask people to try not to hurt or scare the thing they love, then what kind of person are they? Should they just bend over and take it up the arse because of the "majority"? frick off.

I've seen studies on this arguing both sides.

These sound totally legit.

I believe animals have souls and souls can be connected.

Sounds like you have a special one of kind relationship with your dog.

I can take it on the actual holiday.

I get annoyed when people shoot off fireworks three days early.

Instead of buying fireworks this year and celebrating with your family and making family memories, why not buy a bag of dog food instead and donate it to the animal shelter.

Get out of here with this BS.

Worked in a vet diagnostics lab many many moons ago and a lady berated me for calling her a "pet owner" when dammit she's a "proud pet parent of a fur child". frickin loon.

I always enjoy the day after posts from people who know their dog is bad with fireworks, yet still manage to suck at life and leave a door open and their dog runs away.

[quote]Me anytime I hear that phrase.[/quote


Count me in that group. It's a fricking pet, be it a dog, cat or any other fur bearing animal------nothing more.

People have lost their damn minds with this "fur baby" mentality.

And all these people with "Emotional Support" animals are bewildering to me. If you are that emotionally fragile, stay the frick home so your feelings won't get hurt or have panic attacks in public.

Please keep our fur babies in mind this Fourth of July. Instead of buying fireworks this year and celebrating with your family and making family memories, why not buy a bag of dog food instead and donate it to the animal shelter. My Princess doesn't love fireworks. Every fourth of July I have to wrap Princess in a blanket and stroke her brow and rub cool water on her legs and tell her positive affirmations. The next morning Princess is wagging her tail and playing and acting like nothing ever happened, but in the momemt my heart breaks for Princess. I am dreading it already. Me and Princess might both shite ourselves on the fourth of July.

If a person shits themselves over fireworks it is probably some bad BBQ that's really to blame. The dog is understandable but the person shitting themselves is disgusting.

frick a dog. I will say it. Its a dog, I love dogs, I ain't going to ask folks to forego a tradition like fireworks cause it scares dogs. That is some old bull shite. We have a little rat dog who is terrified of fireworks and weather. 2 hour after the last boom she is fine.

My old flatulent and wise cracking lab ain't scared of nothing but missing a meal. On the morning our house was being torn asunder by Hurrican Helene I walked out on the back porch to watch the weather for a minute 'cause I ain't right in the head and my lab followed me out the door. 100 MPH wind and raining as it will do when there's weather afoot. Damned dog goes to her spot in the yard and takes a wicked shite. Wasn't at all concerned about the weather. Dam near got blown over a couple of times....never hesitated. Now thats a damn dog. She'd be put out no end if there weren't fireworks and BBQ on the fourth...mainly the BBQ though....
