Why Dogs Rule

Martijn: thanks

Until you kick 'em.

What do you think a "PUNT!" emoticon might be!?

Yes

Seriously though, i have nothing against dogs, for God's sake, i LOVE animals. I just prefer cats 'cause the fact that most Dogs will foolishly sit and take abuse from an asshole of an owner (i've seen it many times) just because their goofy nature can't understand that THEIR VERY OWN owner can be an asshole too, is a little annoying to me. Cats will purrrrrrrr and love you ONLY as long as you feed and love them too, they won't hesitate to show their evil sneaky side otherwise and i just love that; i like that they are clever and selfish to a point, and they need their space, they won't bug you ALL the time nor will they try to.....*cough* fudge you....literally, if you have a cute butt and you're bent over! I love people who set their limits and space as well, i don't like dumb hoomans either.

Another self-explanatory factor that has kept me away from owning a dog, ever, is the subject of cleanness and general hygiene.

But still, i can understand why certain people show more affection towards Dogs, due to the 100% (and most of the times even more) wholehearted return of your very own feelings from a Dog that would do anything for you.

But it's not quite as black and white or clear cut as that, D. All sorts of dogs have all sorts of attitudes. Mine is a particularly laid-back, timid dog but would never put up with any abuse. Though it's not something he has to deal with of course, he's a very pampered pooch due to my Mum!

And I HATE little rat dogs. I think it's disgusting the way they've been bred purely as a fashion accessory. I only really like big, huggable, friendly dogs.

I do now!

A dog bit me years ago. I had a paper round and it was early in the morning, 5.30 or something. I was on my bike and the owner was outside with the dog in the street but unleashed. I just cycled by very quietly as if nothing happened. I was a bit nervous but the owner was there, so I was sure nothing would happen. As I slowly cycled away I could hear the dogs paws on the street and his panting behind me! The owner was calling the dog so I kept moving in the same direction, very calmly, because I thought the dog would go back. I heard the owner call again but the dog kept chasing me and then he bit in my leg.

I got really angry at the owner, said he should keep his dog with him, he kept apologizing and said he didn't understand why the dog just did that. He thought the dog probably wanted to play... He asked if I was alright. My leg hurt a bit but nothing to see so I continued my paperround. Now the weird thing was I was wearing stretch jeans. So when I got back home and took of my trousers I saw I had three bite wounds in my leg. But my pants were completely fine!

So, I had to go to the docter, get tetanus vaccin and everything.
People said I had to report the police so I called and told the whole story and answered all kinds of questions and then they made an appointment. When I was there and told the whole story again, they said if it wasn't on purpose they couldn't do anything. The police said I could call the owner and ask for money for my clothes. I said my clothes are fine, my leg is not! It is illegal here to have your dog unleashed (except for special dog parks), but if the police isn't there to see it, they can't do anything of course.

Now, I didn't tell you that I already hated that dog. It was the kind of watch dog who had an outside resident as big as the whole garden. Each week when I passed that garden he was standing there behind the iron bars looking at me very aggressively and barking and I looked back very aggressively and sticked out my tongue or middle finger. Just because. So I'm sure he remembered that.


He also had a bone in the garden as big as a human thigh bone. He bit me in my thigh as well, I thought that was kind of funny, hahaha.

Anyway, the result is I don't trust the owners anymore. I always thought I was safe if the owner was around. So now each time a dog runs to me and the owner is shouting at the dog to come back, I'm not so sure anymore that is going to happen.

Lesson learned: don't at dogs.

Answer: Get a BIGGER do yourself!

I used to get nervous around dogs. If they ever start following me now I just keep an eye out that they're not going to do something stupid.

Ever seen a BEAR get maced!???

LOL! I love it when he starts throwing around that giant teddy now and then. Totally absurd, if you think about it.

Crazy dogs.

I approve of this site! ^^
