To dare to think that the Cult of Dog has gone too far?

[MariLlwyd]

There is now not a single public space in my home town that is dog-free - and that includes cafes, restaurants and even the library. Local beaches, once a quiet escape, have turned into asylums for the fur baby/pupper brigade to inflict their poorly trained animals on others with children getting chased, people jumped on and tripped over and all to the sound of hysterical barking and frequent dog fights.
80 year old woman knocked over by uncontrollable dog? 'You got in his way'.
Ask politely that you take your dog away from our lunch table? 'Go fuck yourself'.
Sit on the most remote bench you can find? Peri-menopausal wild eyed harridan lets loose 3 dogs from her 4x4 to jump all over you and laughs that it's 'their spot' and turns unhinged when you push them away.
Yes, this is a rant and yes I hate most dog owners.
This weird cult that values darling dogs over human beings is actually pretty worrying.
I shall await the inevitable and hilarious 'incoming' from the emotionally stunted Doggo Nutters.

You can't simultaneously have a problem with people who don't pick up shit and people who do pick up shit.

They don’t though. They are different people and it is perfectly possible for the poster to have an issue with both groups.

There should be a charge for disposal - costed into a mandatory dog licence, which is self-funding -ie all the admin and enforcement comes out of hypothecated funding from the licence.
Dog breeders should be only allowed to hand the dog over with proof of the licence and insurance.
Any unlicensed dogs to be destroyed and the owners incur a large fine

People mixed up considering their dogs as part of their family with thinking the rest of the world should treat their families dog the same as a human member of any family.

Generally because dogs behave much better than children. Personally I think the cult of motherhood b has gone much further and way too far in the wrong direction.

I agree but can you imagine it . . . the idiots on Facebook 'they're killing our fur babies'
(I jest, actually it would be 'their killing are fur babies')

You presumably do not approve of your own birth then, ergo you would not exist if you had your own way, no more humans, just dogs.
Then again since it was humans that created dogs there would be no dogs either🤷🏻‍♀️

Drama queen much.

The two do not follow, I said the cult of motherhood I.e I’m such a saint and work ever so hard and my feelings, thoughts and opinions should be considered above all others because I snagged someone and birthed a child.

Many people are allergic to dogs.

So your attributing lack of intelligence to dog ownership?

I'd say lack of intellect correlates loosely with dog ownership and reasonably strongly with Facebook use.

Yeah but at least parents produce something useful in the form of future taxpayers who will fund your pension, staff your hospital, police your neighbourhood and wipe your bottom in your care home.

Can’t say the same about a dog.

Given the amount of useless snowflakes we have to employ, that is those that manage to get a job I doubt it

quite a lot of people are allergic to your offspring too

Anyone who writes off an entire generation is “useless snowflakes” tells you as much as you need to know about them.

Anyone who starts a rant about the cult of dogs on an online forum is a cretin, and anyone who cant take criticism about their darling issue should join them in the cretin corner..

@peeweemermaid thats just not true is it and such a ridiculous and basic non argument that dog people often trot out “oh but I’m allergic to children lol”. No one is allergic to a child - you might not like them but they don’t make you feel unwell as dogs and other animal often do for some people, myself included.

Someone is in the windup mood today 😆

Oh I can assure you some children have made me fell unwell, with their high pitched squealing, snot covered faces, manners of a pig in a sty, and generally repulsive antics.

😂 you are funny, must of us don't swing the poop bags about. And as for people who hang poop bags on trees are the lowest of the low.

Scented nap sacks solves that problem.

If someone finds seeing a stranger, minding their own business, holding a collected poo in a tied plastic bag 'stomach churning' frankly I'm surprised they're able to leave the house without smelling salts.

@peeweemermaid but it’s not an allergy is it and it’s ridiculous to suggest that it is.

AS ridiculous presumably as suggesting that all dog owners are intellectually sub normal, or all dog owners allow their dogs to jump all over and are continually shitting on the road on front of you.
