Guard dogs & fighting dogs that tear small dogs and babies to pieces instantly given the chance are not "good boys". They're bred and trained to be assholes, and are assholes. Only assholes think vicious dogs are good boys.

Dogs do not have their own cellular services which is a freedom that us humans enjoy

If dogs had their own cell phones and service then they wouldn't need to just yell at one another all the time to communicate I feel???

A dog was working as a sales associate at a foot locker I went to and while I'm sure he was a good boy, his service was just OK, like when it came to figuring out anything with numbers he really panicked

I'm 100% convinced the dog genome will collapse soon, and they'll legitimately go extinct within the lifetime of your average poster's theoretical children.

Gonna expand this to all dog breeds that have trouble breathing/walking/breeding because of terrible genetics. Just stop making more puppies of those breeds and let the old dogs live out their days in not too much pain and discomfort.

From my understanding the main problem is when you mix these two together. Guard dog breeds are bred to attack intruders, but not maul things to death, especially small nonthreatening things like small children, and fighting dog breeds are bred to maul other dogs to death, but not attack humans. But when you mix these two you wind up with a toddler-murdering machine.

Also this. It's animal cruelty to breed a dog that can't breathe properly and should be seen as such.

Keep your dog on a leash when you're out and about.

Your mutt being "excitable" isn't cute, nor an excuse for it's bad behavior.

Got a light, handsome?

Buying a pure breed dog without good cause should be grounds for you not being allowed to own a dog.

gently caress you if you spend 1500 bucks on a dog from a breeder when there are hundreds of dogs in shelters that need a home.

Exceptions to this are if you need a specific breed for a specific purpose (I'm thinking like seeing eye dogs, sheep dogs, bomb defusal dogs, that sort of thing)

Any time someone tries to justify pitbulls as "it's the owner not the breed" let's consider a few factors:

- cattle dogs / collies / shepherds inherently have the urge to round up things / herd / nip at ankles, so is it really hard to imagine this logic applying to:
- terriers, which were bred for one purpose: to pick up small animals and lock down and shake until they're dead, being inherently huge risks due to their innate, lizard brain prey drive
- there is no barrier to entry for having a dog, you can literally just go and get one, which means that:
- most dog owners are actually pretty terrible, as are most dogs either because of their owners or because they're just lovely dogs or oftentimes both

French bulldogs cost ~7k in vet bills in the first three years of their life, on average, told to me by a veterinarian. Pugs and boston terriers are just as bad
