With big dogs they consequences of not training them are too severe for people to completely ignore it, but with small dogs they just sort of end up as neurotic wrecks and people seem to think that's.. cute??

no, train your fucking dogs, it's not normal for small dogs to be nervous and aggressive, you're fucking abusing your family members.

This is what small dogs should be like: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3cn0KzdIc40

I love minion.

Love me some Minion but to be fair Nate trains the fuck out of his animals. An owner wouldn't have to go through as much effort as he does for a polite housepet

eh, if you take on the responsibility of owning a dog training them well is really a big part of that responsibility, if you want a dog that needs minimal training just get a golden retriever.

Horrible trigger discipline.

They're small dogs, it's already a miracle that they can hold weapons.

Not having opposable thumbs is ruff.

People who would point guns at BLM protesters aren't that bright. At least the pistol didn't work because it wasn't assembled correctly.

I forgot about those two lovely people and their beautiful Kodak moment.

Had a coworker complain that the price she paid for her chihuahuas boots was more expensive than any pair she owns.

I will never knock an owner for getting foot coverings for their dogs, especially in the south on concrete.

However, spending more for them then your own shoes....

[-] TotallynotJessica@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago

It just seems like a pain to train dogs to wear them. Besides, our dogs usually don't want to go anywhere when it's that hot.

My mini goldendoodle is a medium sized dog, but she uses her big girl voice when people are nearby. She's not even aggressive or trying to be threatening, she just barks like she's twice the size she is. She picked up the behavior from my parents' anxious great shepherd. I'm trying to get her to stop, but it's been hard.
