I find dogs annoying

If you have never had a dog in your life, it is hard to understand the bond between dog and dog-owner. They are our children.

My pet peeve is pet fish. I don’t like them at all.

I also get annoyed by how many dog owners ignore leash laws and you have this massive 70 lb dog that you don’t know approach you (or worse, young kids) randomly at the park. I don’t want to be that person and constantly call the police on them, but modern dog culture is becoming more and more of a nuisance.

The wonderful things about dogs is that they give everyone a chance to be nice. Even you.

Agree. How can a fish be a pet?

I can’t stand dogs they’re gross and smell and no….they’re not cute. I also can’t stand owners who love their dogs and their days revolve around their dogs.

What irks me the most is letting them off leash everywhere. Aren't they afraid their dog is going to get hit by a car? I don't let my pup off leash anywhere that isn't completely enclosed. Not even so much because it's the law, but because I love her and don't want anything to do happen to her. It also bothers me that people bring their dogs to the grocery store. I like to take my dog out with me, but I don't take her anywhere she isn't allowed, and if I'm not sure, I don't. These are probably the same people who litter and do other anti-social, entitled things.

All that said, yes, dogs are extremely annoying. Mine is always following me around the house, and if she's sitting still, she's staring at me. If they were human beings, they'd be the neediest, most clingy people ever! But they're cute and they love us, so I just smile to myself when my dog is staring adoringly at me like a weirdo.

Ugh... this.

People have no idea the regulations that rule farmers. They are required to not harvest any crop where animal feces has been spotted in the field. But I was at Whole Foods the other day and two people were pushing their "baby" around in the main part of the cart, where the next people need to put their food. So E. coli from deer or rabbits cause the food to be thrown away, but I can put my produce down where your dog's butt was and there is no problem. In this case, I was a "Karen," despite knowing that it was futile, and reminded them that this was against health codes. But I have no illusion that they will stop.

Is this the P St WF? Yuck!

What total bollocks the assertion that farmers cannot harvest food crops from fields where animals have defecated. For Pete’s sake, animal dung is used to fertilize many human food crops in America!

You know bollocks about farming. Utter shite.

Check food safety regulations implemented under Obama...

Right people get it straight bad manure that from carnivores and omnivores. Good manure they from herbivores like cows. Not all shit is good shit. This is why eating lettuce grown in fields where the workers poop in the fields or don’t wash their hands after defecating leads to ecoli and other deadly nasties.

It’s also why you shouldn’t eat raw salads, vegetables or things you can’t peel in poor countries, yes with huge billion+ human populations have lots of human poop and use it to fertilize crops. 💩

I find attention-seeking, dog-hating whiners boring.

We all have problems.

I’m not a dog fan and I realize it’s probably because I didn’t grow up with them and basically don’t know anything about them. But I walk around my neighborhood every day and always run across owners with dogs off leash and they really scare me. One huge dog ran out of its backyard gate just as I was walking by and started barking and growling and jumping at me. And my neighbors small dog escapes their backyard every few days and runs up to me and barks. My neighborhood list serve complains about outdoor cats and how detrimental to the environment they are, but I’ve seen several off leash dogs go charging into the woods after squirrels.

I was just in Italy, at a Michelin starred restaurant, and while I was sitting there, I saw not one, but TWO, dogs enter the restaurant to accompany their owners for dinner. Love it.

Wow I’m not the only one! We had a dog growing up and it was fun at times but more trouble than it was worth. Now I’m a grown up I just don’t understand how everyone can stand having dogs in their homes. They smell, they slobber, they fart, they don’t clean themselves so well. I don’t like visiting friends with dogs. And don’t get me started on dog friendly hotels etc. I can smell that there has been a dog there before us.

That said I love the idea of having a dog in wide open spaces. That relationship especially kids growing up with a companion in countryside etc makes sense to me.

I dislike that dog owners think you’re a terrible person if you admit that you don’t like dogs.

The problems you cite are owner problems. Not dog problems.

Many if not most dogs eat subpar food in farm country because those corn fed and full of additive/chemicals that are not compatible with an organic crop. So yes, cow poop:yes. Random dogs that eats crap food? Not so much.

But you sound like you probably compost your own faeces, so.

We lived in Brussels and frequently ate at the restaurant. In the Bois. One day a dog walked over to my table and grabbed my steak. His owner rushed over, apologized, and ordered me another dinner and picked up the tab. In Germany, people bought train tickets so their dogs could sit in train seat.
