get yourself a good lab or even a chihuahua, something solid that won't get blinded by an annoyed housecat

Chihuahuas are cursed yappy hellbeasts and also, aren't they as inbred and prone to failure as those others?

Source: room renter has a stupid chihuahua that has needed 7k spinal surgery and at least 5k in some sort of blood replacement therapy in the past year. She's got it on Chinese herbs now so hopefully it'll shuffle off this mortal coil soon.

Dachshunds: thoughts?

(If you actually manage their diet they don't get hosed up backs/joints)

poodles are smart as gently caress fwiw

but i mostly think ppl should stay away from “breeds” though except working breeds and those breeds that are basically “generic dingo style dog but not feral”

i won't argue that cause you're right, but as long as shelters and rescues have poodlish dogs in them ill give them a place to live 🤷‍♀️

Do what thou must do.
Yeah aren't poodles considered the smartest? At least by that one list done by some British guy in the early 1900s or w/e

Conversely, dachshunds are on the same list, but rather at the very bottom. Can confirm, I had a dachshund for a few years and he was so dumb, he didn't even know how to play fetch. But he made up for it by being an incredibly cuddly boy, and helped me through some pretty lovely times.

Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

nah they're usually #2 after border collies. but very smart dogs for sure. unlike retrievers and stuff they don't care as much about having your approval though which can be a bit of challenge. they still want to please mostly, but they don't live for human approval like goldens do or live to do the job oh god please give me a job like border collies do

I heard that ranking was done with a weight on command responsiveness which dachshunds are terrible at since they can be quite stubborn, so not good for certain working rolls but it gives them strong personality in my experience

theyre like little dog noodles and I light up when I see one

maybe theyd be more cyberpunk as runners since theyre small and fast and can weasel through things

Oh dang, it's pretty sweet! I've got some prescription lens inserts on the way and will soon be building a new machine to drive it at more than the half-resolution I have been so far; it's still impressive as hell so I can't imagine what it'll look like eventually. Plus I think I've finally figured out how best to use the knuckle controllers, which work great but aren't as 100% 'just strap it on and it works' as I'd thought at first (mostly you need to be moving your fingers regularly to let things recalibrate, paying attention to haptic feedback to let you know when you've hit the edge of some envelope).

Arizona Sunshine kicks rear end and I love making friends play with it while I offer pointers, thanks again for that :cool:

Maybe they just assume that type of thing will be common this time of year and it's a coincidence?
