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.

So am I for just having read/looked at the meme.

It's interesting how something so simple can cause so much joy. I love it!

I wish that was all it took 😞

Sometimes it's the little things that get you.

When things seem really bad I like to try and focus on any good stuff to help get me out of the funk. Even if it's just a simple post online, it helps to enjoy anything rather than stew in misery. Just my take.

Thank you for your kind message, stranger. I'm hoping the passage of time will make it easier for me to let myself think happy thoughts again.
