Our (large) dipshit dog will bark his head off at the front door opening even if he's watching me do it.

On the other hand he is so sweet and protective of smaller animals; he absolutely adores the rats and plays with them through cage bars and snuggles the cats and wrestles the kitten. He also will seek out anybody thats been crying and initiate extreme cuddles. You can even tell him to drop a piece of steak and he wont pick it back up until told to. He's a fantastic dog.

Meanwhile my grandmother's small dogs are loving demons and can go directly to hell. They piss and poo poo everywhere, shreik-bark nonstop, will attack any animal large or small they come across. Oh and they know theyre not supposed to piss/poo poo indoors because they wont do it if they think theyre being watched. One even bit our big boy on the throat and he didnt fight back, we had to pull the little fucker off him.

My entire life experience with dogs has always been big=good, small=bad. The only time I've been attacked by a dog was some little white gently caress that was wandering around off leash and decided to taste my leg.

Their ears break all the time and they get aural hematomas that sometimes need surgery to fix. The tail breaks, too, splashing blood far and wide.

Weird that this is never a problem in countries where docking and cropping is banned. The real reason for tail docking is because Romans thought it prevented rabies, and ear cropping is for aesthetics; they want their Dobermann to look badass. Anything else is just a rationalization for traditional barbarism, make no mistake.

I’m sure I’m not the first person to suggest that maybe your granny could have trained her dogs to not do those things. Or is this a ‘she gets a pass for this because she’s achieved a certain age’ thing?

Oh no, she should have, but the damage is done now and the dogs are insufferable to be around

I always thought the ear clipping thing was so their ears wouldn’t get torn off when fighting other dogs. Any time I’d see like a pit with no ears I assumed the owner is a scumbag dog fighter.

Is ear clipping really that common? I’ve really only seen it a few times IRL where I was aware of it. The worst one was when I used to live near this guy who got two pit bull puppies and the next time I saw them their ears were freshly bloodied stumps. It looked awful and I overheard him explaining to a concerned old lady “well you see, they don’t actually feel it, it’s good for them! It’s tradition!” Or some bullshit. I guess I assumed he was planning on making them fight.

The phrase “It’s tradition” and any bad activity that it defends needs to be shot into the sun

One of my old roommates got an Australian Shepherd from a breeder. She was the cutest dog, but they cropped her tail :( Ostensibly, it's so it won't get caught in things or damaged when they're out herding sheep or whatever, but the vast majority of these dogs are going to be full-time housepets. The American Kennel Club is a force for evil though and perpetuates a lot of these bullshit aesthetics. They usually just end up making the dog uglier too.

There seem to be a lot of people around me that just casually breed their dogs. They're not actual breeders, they just do it for fun I guess. I had a coworker who kept trying to pimp out her dog, it was kind of weird. This is out in the country though, so maybe it's normal to them. But I can't think of any possible reason why I would want a dog that hasn't been spayed or neutered living in my house.

Oh yeah absolutely gently caress the AKC. They could fix the pug/bulldog issue if they wanted, but they'd rather keep handing out awards for inbred monstrosities and have been steadily loving up more and more breeds, like for example making German Shepherds that can't stand properly.
