Dogs

All about dogs - dog breeds, dog training and behavior, news affecting dog owners or handlers, puppy pics, etc.

Rules (Will be refined later on).

  1. Don't be a dick. This should cover most things, just keep in mind that everyone started somewhere and try to be helpful rather than rude or judgmental.

  2. No personal attacks based on training style or tools.
    Discussion of balanced training including proper use of aversives is allowed here.

  3. All breeds and mixes are welcome. You can criticize backyard breeding practices but don't pile on people because they own a specific breed or prefer purebreds or mixed breeds.

  4. Do not support backyard breeders or puppy mills. Please do not link to or suggest buying from high volume breeders or those with an obvious lack of standards and testing.

  5. Do not help or support fake service animals. Please do not encourage people to buy fake service dog vest or ESA letters to get around rental or other restrictions & do not give advice on how to misrepresent a dog as a service or support animal.

Elementary school students when they learn the teachers don't live at the school

My mother worked in the school system. We had gone to teachers houses. And yet, my brain still thought the teachers in the mobile outdoor buildings lived in them lmfao

Makes sense since usually we don't think of those as part of a school, moreso for housing.

When you're at the grocery store with your parents and see your teacher outside of school. Same energy lol.

“Oh god my torturer has found me! RUN!”

(I mean this in the sense that the dog would consider the horrors of a bath and haircut a torturous experience, not that I think people getting their dogs groomed are cruel or anything weird like that.)

This little weirdo absolutely LOVES it when the groomer comes by, though 😁

It's the treats. 100% the treats.

10% the pets, affection, and praise for being the goodest boy, 90% the treats 😄

"They found me -- I don't know how, but they found me!"
