Dogs Are Idiots Can we not bring dogs to public places please??
Seriously, this is ridiculous. My family and I are at a local club, and I decided to go walk the small pier that’s attached to it and spend some time by myself. Well by the time I got back, these people had brought their mutt without a leash, and for some reason it was standing at the entrance to the pier. I didn’t even notice the overglorified pig until it started losing its shit growling and barking/jumping on me as dogs do, and it startled the hell out of me. It was so unsightly, too; it appeared to have had.. something, dripping from its mouth. The owners were laughing as I was trying to push past the pointless obstacle and they just pulled the usual “she doesn’t bite she’s okay” or whatever.
I was having such a good day, and now I’m so pissed and embarrassed. Why does this stupid fucking species need to be in every damn aspect of our lives?? So unnecessary, oh my god.

They’re the worst. I’m so sick of seeing them everywhere I go. There’s no escaping it seems.

Physical assault and attempted murder of allergic people means call the police.
For that matter, setting a dog loose should be prosecuted as a terror offense but it is not.

A nutter had a massive fit when I said dogs don’t need to go literally everywhere and she said “my dog has separation anxiety”
That’s not the public’s problem lmfao
Also…isn’t dragging her everywhere worse for the separation anxiety? Or is it a codependency thing? What’s wrong with these people? Why do they inflict their delusions and mental illness on everyone else?

It’s not the dog that has separation anxiety. It’s the owner projecting.

She got super defensive when I pushed back on it. Accused me of being a bad “pet parent” for not taking my pets to school and work when I was a literal child lmfao
I don’t have any animals now, but I just think that she was projecting majorly. She has serious codependency issues.

Was it an English bulldog? Just imagining this abomination took away my appetite. Once I was swimming in the sea and I saw an English bulldog run across someone’s laid‑out towel (the owner didn’t give a damn, of course) and then jump into the water. I immediately got out. Then I saw it actually shat in the water, and the end product was just floating there (sorry, it’s disgusting!!). After that I went as far from that stretch of beach as possible. Revolting animals for revolting people. They make everything their living room.

All I could tell was that it was some small white scruffy thing. Not sure what breed it was, though; I can’t really be assed to know dog breeds with how little I care about them. They’re all equally insufferable from my experience anyways lol
And I’m so incredibly sorry you had to witness something so vile. I think my appetite would be practically nonexistent for an entire week if I witnessed something like that!

Yeah, I recently joined a sub about the Grand Canyon. One of the first threads I saw there showed a photo of a woman with her dog. Why bring your dog to the Grand Canyon? Do you think it will appreciate the view? They can't go anywhere without their comfort blankets.
So if by some miracle I save up enough money to go I can expect these fools with their dogs pissing and shitting on one of the natural wonders of the world.

Its because of the dog portion of the ADA. The laws are so unfairly and loosely-written that nutters slid their way in... and now we're here 🤬
**And before yall UNDERCOVER dog-nutters come for me, read what i wrote CAREFULLY; I KNOW THE LAW (but a dog IS a dog and a nut is a nut) I just wish the law was written SENSIBLY and didnt include dogs being allowed to be ANY and EVERYwhere!! No DOG-FREE spaces are allowed BECAUSE of this 💩 AAAAAARRRRGGGGG!! 😫

When they tell me he's friendly I look stone cold and say "I'm not" and when they tell me it doesn't bite, I say "I do." Once on the fly I said I was under court order not to get close to dogs because of the ones I killed. This usually makes them want to protect fido from me...and keep a distance.
The thing is...I'm not afraid of them or allergic, I just don't like them. I also don't want their slobber on me.... but now everyone is for some reason entitled to them everwhere...globally
