To think it should be mandatory that dogs wear shorts to cover their genitals in public?

I love dogs. There's a dalmatian near me that brings me true joy during the school run 🥰

But now that I've admired your dog from my car, got my dopamine hit, I am now faced with the task of avoiding glancing at its testicles and therefore being mildly grossed out during the rest of my journey.

In 2025, I shouldn't be forced to see a dogs genitals!

Time to introduce 'dog boxer shorts' so I can go about my day in peace! Someone needs to get onto Kier Starmer, honestly.

Just reading the title of the post on my inbox made me laugh.

If you don't want to see the dogs genitals.... Don't look in that direction lol

Put your analyst on danger money baby, now.

Haaaa…..yes ! One of the reasons l don’t ever want a dog is that l don’t want genitals on my sofa x

Same here @WiddlinDiddlin , long woolly coats and fluffy tails, so everything is nicely discreet and no clothing required.
Droopy nipples is another thing that slightly puts me off short coated dogs.

I hope this thread doesn't cause friction between dog owners...coat length discrimination could be a new thing. Mind you, I do get a lot of people comment that they couldn't cope with the moulting (or grooming) of my breed, so I guess discrimination goes both ways.

WiddlinDiddlin · 24/11/2025 05:34

I have often thought this when seeing breeds with short coats and tails that are carried high... and it's not just the boys.

Some breeds, once they are mature, the lady parts are very 'out there' and saggy.

I love dogs, dogs are literally my life... but if I never see a doggy scrotum or vulva, bouncing away in front of me, I'd die happy. (My dogs have scruffy hair or tails held down - we rarely see a vulva or a butthole here!)

I can’t do a link or a pic, but just google hercule van wolfwinkle. He draws terrible pics of dogs and cats which sometimes include them wearing yellow yfronts! There is a Facebook page as well.

I love his page. His drawings always make me smile.

The possibilities are endless, female dogs could be forced to wear some sort of bra/bikini top to cover their 8 (or is it 10?) nipples too. A one piece option too. The boys could maybe let their nipples roam free, not sure.

MajesticWhine · 23/11/2025 22:31

My dog has not got his bollocks. And he might struggle to pull his pants up after having a wee, so it’s a no from him. Nice idea though.

FrangipaniBlue · 23/11/2025 21:57

I know someone IRL who genuinely thinks this…. that all male dogs should be castrated at birth or made to cover up

What about squirrels?! 🐿️

lolly427 · 23/11/2025 19:48

Oh gawd you're not wrong OP, when that gross pink bit starts sticking out - urggh male dogs are gross. No one should have to see that. I would only ever have female dogs

TroysMammy · 23/11/2025 19:34

My sister had a white cat and our Mother frequently mentioned he needed pants because of his pink, winking bumhole. I actually found a white cat shaped tea towel holder which had one of those pink rubber contraptions where it's arse was. My brother in law nearly wet himself laughing when I pointed a finger and made a shlurping sound to demonstate.

RubySquid · 23/11/2025 19:34

I think you need help

sgtmajormum · 23/11/2025 19:32

Why stop at dogs?
How about squirrels being made to wear boxing gloves when outside their drays so the can't dig up my lawn and plant their acorn stash on my property!

I saw a dog wearing a nappy on a bus once. I’d much rather see that than dog wee!

PP is right about cows. Tits out all over the place. This isn’t Magaluf. Cover them up!
