People were so much more respectful with their dogs, back in the day.
Now they bring them EVERYWHERE. Don't restrain them, don't leash them, don't train them, call them "service dogs" when they're not, but use their dog like a child and their security blanket or stuffed animal.
It's ridiculous. I don't know how "cat people" got such a bad rep (fyi I don't own any pets, but dog owners are far, far, FAR more awful)

Easy: if my dog bothers you, stop coming over.
Next?
You really think it's cool and nice for your 80 lb. dog to body slam people?

Bringing your dog into any restaurant is gross and tacky, and I'll assume you at some point in your life lived in a trailer. Service dogs an exception of course.
Saw a couple pushing their dog around in a carriage in Target the other. I was embarrassed for them.

Dog owners=Dogs
What an elegant way to put it! This should end this discussion

Yet mention that you like dogs but don't ever want to own one, and you're crucified by the dog lovers. Very peculiar.

It just seems that it's more "fashionable" to be a dog person now a days. Everyone is conditioned to think that it's wrong to pass judgement on people who don't like kids, but heaven help someone who "admits" to not caring for dogs.

I agree. It was shocking for me to read that too!
Now, with this my assumption on the intelligence of an average DCUM poster has come crashing down! Sad.

I am a dog person. I also like cats (but am allergic to them). Why do I like my dog?
Well when I get home, she is always happy to see me. She hears the car (and can tell the difference between my car and other cars), and gets excited. She is waiting at the door, and she greets me.
My Wife, nah. My kid, nah.
My dog keeps my yard free of squirrels. She warns me when the Pizza delivery person is here, or the mail is close by. She is almost always happy. She is patient.
Oh, and any food on the floor? she cleans up. Natures vacuum cleaner.
She alerted me when someone was breaking into my car at 2 AM; the police caught the Mother F***r.
Mostly she is content just to be with us - her family.
I know dogs have emotions. I know they are pretty smart.
Now, she does make mistakes. For example, she hears Guac as Walk, and gets all excited.

But, I don't do that. If I'm out, going to the vet and then some errands literally around the corner, I take her with me. She has gone to the post office, bakery, liquor store. When I set my first foot in the door, with her in my hand, I ask "Is it okay to bring her in?" and they say yes, so I do. If that's a problem for you, you should probably leave.

Dogs besides service dogs don't belong in a lot of places.
Not all dog owners do this.
No, not all dog owners do this. Some dog owners are responsible and considerate people, and they keep their dogs in appropriate places. I wish them and their dogs the very best. These responsible dog owners and their pets are NOT being targeted or attacked on this thread.

How dumbass of a dcum poster like you to think they are better than dogs. Excluding pitbulls who were bred by white europeans to kill bulls if needed and bred for bloodsport, other breeds of dogs can be very much if not smarter and more clever than most humans. My dog would look both ways before we crossed the street (almost never see any human in DC do this), knew everyone by their name, understood 2 languages and always knew what we were saying, apologized when he did something wrong in his own way by folding ears back without me scolding him, had excellent memory.
This sums up it all. When a dog owner think like this, it's hard for anyone to convince him or her that a dog is just an animal.
As someone put it so correctly, we would be forced to believe
Dog owners=Dogs in every aspect including intelligence.
Yep; you can't fix stupid. What kills me is that the people who think their dogs should be able to be anywhere a human is and that we should all be honored to be in their dogs' company are often the same group bitching about kids. What they fail to realize is that they're just like the inconsiderate parents who think everyone's interested in dealing with their special snowflakes. I'm a parent, but don't want to deal with anyone who thinks that their kid or their pet is better than or more entitled than the rest of the world.

Isn't it so sad that dog lovers are trying to argue that dogs are as intelligent as humans? WTF is this? Stone Age?
And that the actual argument posed by the people who don't think dogs belong in certain places has nothing to do with dogs' intelligence, or whether or not dogs possess any specific quality or trait, and attempts to argue that dogs possess specific qualities of any kind does not change or address the crux of the argument in the least.
