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

[mumofoneAloneandwell]

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.

😄😄😭

Yeah, to be fair, he could carry it off. I don't think Piglit or Eeyore were likely to be distressed.

Exactly.

If this Government had any backbone they would have addresssed this as Number One priority instead of monkeying around with the Budget and cancelled the Winter Heating Allowance for the old folk.

I would add to the suggestion that cats should wear nappies, that this should be extended to include dogs as they seem more than happy to 'go' in plain site while glacing about, without a care in the world, quite probably, inwardly, rather pleased with themselves.

It is all very winnie the pooh 😄

@mumofoneAloneandwell I’ve just realised that you are in a car.
Have you tried to look at the road ahead to avoid distraction?
Or if you are not driving are you coming deliberately to look at … ahem, the dog?

I’ve heard some batshit ideas in my time but that wins hands down 😂.

i'm in london so two things are guaranteed 😭😭

Traffic and naked dogs everywhere

😂

I saw a woman in TKMaxx yesterday, she had a dog in a pram. It was all dressed up in what looked like baby clothes. I gave her a wide berth.

Is there a correlation?

I can guess you don’t describe something really impressive as “the dog’s bollocks”, then?

I have always had long coated dog breeds- thankfully that much fur hides any naughty bits!

😄😄😄 well now you mention it....

No I don’t. That’s old fashioned now. The phrase has evolved in the last few years to become “the bollocks”. Earth wind and fire really are the bollocks.

But it’s in any case a redundant point. Every time someone says ‘bloody hell’ it’s not mandatory to picture the gates of hell with fire and blood seeping out.

What if the dog born male identifies as female?

I just knew someone would have the word cockerpoo in a reply 🤣🤣🤣

I’m sure I heard about a study which showed men and women pictures of different dogs and the men were very drawn to looking at their genitals but the women weren’t. I can’t find it now so I may have dreamt it, but I’m sure I heard it on the QI podcast 🤔

While looking for it I found out that someone won an Ig Nobel Prize in 2005 for inventing Neuticles* *- silicone testicle replacements for neutered dogs whose owners want them to appear more “virile”. Is there a chance that the Dalmatian might be sporting a pair of XL Neuticles at his owner’s request??

It’s the dog’s bollox!

I’d like to see the cows (in the field opposite) in nappies. It’s gross seeing them leak poo everywhere. 😁

Take my money! I have a long haired breed, who unfortunately has alopecia. She wears a fleece jumper to keep her warm but it doesn’t cover her bum. She gets proper spooked on a breezy day by a cold gust on her bare buttocks. I think she’d really appreciate a pair of long johns. No doubt the neighbours already assume I’m bonkers so…

Have you ever seen Pet portraits by Hercule? He makes sure to draw all animals none x rated by adding yellow y fronts. https://herculevanwolfwinkle.co.uk/page

Interesting. The dog needs to be supported in wearing whatever clothing and accessories he/she/they feel comfortable with.
I would look up support groups in your neighbourhood.

Seriously agree. I don’t let anyone in my house who isn’t wearing knickers

I think I can beat that.

I had a crocodile urinate on me.

That wouldn't be my worst fear if in close proximity to a crocodile.
