After so many “gaffes,” I think we need to stop calling these remarks unintentional and start calling them very intentional. You're right to hesitate calling this remark about smart white kids a gaffe.

No, not judgey-it is on the human to control the animal; that’s the rules. And also common sense and knowing what your doggo can handle. Like our neighbor kids want to play with our very sweet 82-lb greyhound, but the hound’s favorite game is called You Run and I Chase and Tackle You, Then You Get Tons of Kisses.…
I go to the dog park a couple times a week and we have sheltered a half dozen puppies. Each dog has its own personality, issues, etc. - many of these do correspond with the breed (or most predominant trait in a mixed breed) and sometimes no. It would be wonderful to have a dog that is perfect to take into every…
Exactly! It’s really important to know your dog’s limitations—and understand that they don’t necessarily make you a bad owner just because they exist. It’s our responsibility to be mindful of what our dogs are and are not capable of and avoid situations that could put them (or in some cases other animals/people) in…
During my time teaching pre-school, there was a family with 3 children and an extremely lovable rottie appropriately called Beefy.
I know that Luna is a city dweller, but not every situation is going to be okay for her, and at 90 lbs, she might not be able to be corrected. Sounds like going to a bar wasn’t a great idea. Together our dogs weigh 140 lbs+, so I do take precautions when I walk them by myself, since if they both pull for something, I…
And some people will be like - oh my dog can - to which I say, it’s not worth finding out. I have two large dogs that eat a lot of junk, but those bone shards are no joke. If they eat one, no biggie D, just watch them, but certainly don’t let it happen often, and so they should consider not walking Luna near the…
I save politeness who deserve it. This is just your chickens coming home to roost, fuckwit.
Years (20) ago, the hubs I were standing in the family room, just chatting, and 5 minutes later found ourselves out on the patio with absolutely no clue how we got there (all doors were open because it was a SoCal summer). Who should be sitting in the patio door, smiling at us, but The Rottweiler, who had silently,…
Yeah, we desperately want a herding dog but we won’t get one (or two!) til we move to a more rural area. I’m sure a good dog trainer could handle the situation, but we’re realistic about what the dog needs and how we can meet those needs in an urban space.
Mostly Luna is just a herding dog living in Brooklyn. Have you guys tried front clipping harnesses? Or one of those dual leads that connects to a harness and their snout? Don’t get me wrong, I love the tone of the blog and Luna is adorable, but three incidents of physical altercations with this dog is not funny.
“Luna is resting near the couch, stirring occasionally only to lick the floor.”
Omigosh — don’t let the dog eat chicken bones! They splinter easily and the sharp pieces can perforate the digestive tract. Big Beef Bones Only!
So tl;dr - Luna is a poorly-trained dog.
“White supremacy isn’t an issue in this country. But you know what is a major problem? All the black and brown people.”
Carlson and the other right wing propagandists will be the death of us all. I doubt it will happen, he is too much of a chickenshit, but I look forward to telling Fucker what I think about him on the streets of New York. I encourage my fellow New Yorkers to do the same.
Does he think you need a membership card and a subscription to Whites’R’Us magazine to qualify as a white supremacist? The fuck?
WHITE SUPREMACIST INSISTS WHITE SUPREMACY NOT AN ISSUE
Legit question for all Americans: How do I hold the 30-50 feral donors accountable when they that run into my yard within 3-5 mins where the concerned journalists play?
