I had a bad stomach ache and then I pooed. Now I feel better. I hope you can find similar relief soon.

I have an image stuck in my head of you standing at your window, seething about those neighbors down the street who’re always parking in front of the house, or the people next door who have a lot of friends coming and going and so surely must be drug dealers. How even do you function?

So your belief is that people shouldn’t be allowed to own pets, unless you lead some sort of feral society-free life. Cool, very reasonable. Are you against the domestication of all animals, or just ones you don’t eat?

When people say, “My dog doesn’t like to be touched” it doesn’t always mean aggression. Sometimes it makes the dog frightened, and no responsible pet owner should force their dog to be touched for no reason by someone that scares them. My dog is incredibly gentle and friendly, usually loves meeting new people, but…

No where is anyone suggesting that you can’t touch or interact with dogs ever, we’re saying you should ask first. Owners might be all for you petting the dog, but they might want him to sit first because they’re trying to train him to be polite. Or they might say it’s fine, but he doesn’t like having his ears touched.…

I agree 100%. Also, I wish parents would teach their small children not to run towards strange dogs! My dog is very timid and not aggressive at all, but someone running towards to her really scares her. Kids do it all the time when I walk her. If she was aggressive, that would result in injuries to the child.

I used to work at a pet store. We had a frequent customer, Jean, who rehabed abused dogs. She’d bring some in occasionally, it was a small store and she knew we were always good with her animals. Jean brings in this giant German Shepherd. It’s wary but I sit down (I’m about the size of an adult black bear so I try to…

My bulldog is generally really friendly but has a major problem with small children. Our neighbors kid whacked her in the face pretty good when she was a puppy and she hasn’t gotten over it. It’s an issue cause we’ll be out on a walk and she’s cute as shit so kids try and approach her and I have to be very stern then…

I was attacked by a cat when I was 7 or 8 (neighbors cat, can’t remember exactly what I was doing, but I’m sure I was being an annoying little kid) and people laugh when I tell them that, but it was a legit attack. That sucker really, really hurt me. Cats can be vicious.

Hey, I’m not even a dog person and I agree that your pooch has the right to walkies. You’ve always come across as a cool person here, so I’m sure your dog is safe and under control.

100%. Also, don’t assume that because you think your dog is friendly everyone is okay with being in his/her space. My dog is a friendly introvert and 80% of the time he just wants to be left alone. But because he’s smaller and looks friendly, everyone assumes they can allow their dog to run up to us on a retractible…

Oh ok internet stranger.

I wish more parents would teach their kids this. I spend 1/4 of my time when I’m out with my dog educating kids on the correct way to approach and pet a dog while their clueless parents just stand by unconcerned.

Had to come up with a solution for a previous foster dog of mine. Don’t fucking touch someone’s dog unless you ask.

My Chiflado does not like strangers he doesn’t approach touching him. I have to walk him at times with little to no people around. He befriended a couple of neighbors but for the most part ducks from head pats.

Didn’t bother to watch the video, but yeah, don’t touch other people’s dogs unless they tell you it’s ok. Really, seriously don’t. You’re putting yourself and the dog at undue risk.

You are in no position to tell a POC what is and isn’t racist.

r u donald trump?

Leslie Jones seems like a high profile black woman who calls out the racist shit that happens all the damn time in this country.

Why do you keep making excuses for strangers if this person is your friend?
