I haaaaaaate it when people do this. I tried to drag one onto the grass, and my damn dog wiggled out of her harness. She had no clue what I was doing and still thinks these things are stiff dogs. 🤬 She tries to fight every last one of them in the middle of the sidewalk. 🥊

Dog leads police officer to his leash during rescue from house fire

Folks, I do not know how many different ways you need to learn this lesson. You can't have dogs in hot cars w/the windows rolled up. I saw three dogs barking like crazy in one SUV. Car was not running. Windows rolled up. I took another lap around the block. Somebody put a fourth dog in the same SUV.

Solid read. However, I trained my dog to sit by the open door when the mail carrier comes and I get the mail in the lobby. Problem is I ran out of that particular treat, and my dog looked at me like I failed at life for having mail ... and no treats. She sits like a statue, judging me. 😂 🐶 🍖

Whenever I see documentaries like this on fast fashion, I always wonder why people don't think of dog shelters and new dog owners more.

This was news to me. My dog loves Bumblebee tuna but was sick immediately from other types of tuna. Turns out I had no business giving her tuna at all. Many dog foods contain fish b/c they’re high in protein and omega-3 fatty acids. But can dogs eat tuna? No! www.akc.org/expert-advic... #dogsky

Fairly certain this affects dog food too whether it is prepared or homemade.

Private equity firms and megacorporations control 50% of all veterinary clinics, up from 10% a decade ago. Vet care costs now double the rate of inflation. Vets told us about short staffing, long hours and constant pressure to boost profits. youtube.com/watch?v=Po6m... #dogsky #dogowner

I am genuinely impressed at Scott Evans having three 🐶 🐶 🐶 and his yard looking like that. We had one dog at a time and the yard was in shambles trying to CONSTANTLY keep it clean. #dogsky #tayediggs youtube.com/watch?v=TrAz...

I just cursed this idiot out whose dog was not listening to him and kept coming around my dog. I don't know if your leashless dog has the Bordatella vaccine, whether YOU can control your dog or why your fucking wrists are so dainty. But if your dog goes nuts, I'm going absolutely NUTS on the owner.

And I love dogs too much to blame them for being off the leash. It's their goofy ass owners' fault. And it's even worse to do it at night when you can barely even see the dog until it is up close. I hope all that screaming and cursing I just did makes his dumbass utilize a leash.

I don't know who needs to read this but for every DUMB ASS who walks your dog with no leash, DO NOT just let your dog walk up on other dogs. You have no idea whether those dogs are aggressive or scared of other dogs. If you're too cool to buy a leash, don't get a dog. Buy a stuffed one.
