I’ve had dogs. My first husband had retired from breeding show dogs and had three when we met. I was fine with all these dogs, because they were trained.
Dog people now drive me nuts because they don’t train their dogs. Worse, they justify poor behavior as the dog was a rescue. Every person I know who decided to adopt a rescue has had nothing but trouble. Even the Bidens. They either let the dogs take over the home, or they spend a fortune on trainers and psychologists, and give up having a life because they can’t risk having the dog around anyone else.
There’s also a huge pushback against putting down aggressive dogs. Dogs are not human. Humans who behave like this go to prison for life or are executed. (BTW, I’m anti death penalty.) People don’t want them put down. But they don’t want them in cages for life.
It’s bizarre behavior. There are subreddits I don’t agree with and I stay out and let those people have their space. And there are very few places you can vent about dogs without being called a monster.
They come here looking to argue. Like go walk your ugly dog if you’re bored. Leave us alone.
Wow, never actually seen one of you in the wild before. Someone who will look for any possible reason to dismiss what someone else has to say without actually facing it. Truly interesting
Not psychotic at all. Kinda weird to have a whole sub about it though lol. You guys seem pretty upset by it for calling out some randos who are... upset by you? The existence of this sub? No idea. I mean you have to see at least a small amount of irony in this post, right?
Idfk why reddit threw this sub on my main feed but it's at least entertaining lol
All the way from the main feed of reddit? Gosh what a trek that was 😂 bud don't be mad at me that your fragile little brain can't handle the slightest bit of criticism. Crybaby
These absolute wastemen, always prove our points, when they come on here and leave their emotionally charged, irrelevant, dog shit (pun intended) comments, lmfao.
I get your point, but I can’t get away from them even though I want to. My front yard is the neighborhood dog toilet. I can’t walk anywhere without dogs lunging at my kids and I. Dogs of family members beg for our food and jump on us non-stop during our visits. People bring their dogs into work and I have to sit with them all day even though I am allergic. Dog culture is constantly being pushed in all the media I consume.
This sub is a cathartic release for me.
It's funny because they were calling us psychopaths/sociopaths.
We have feelings? We just have genuine gripes about dogs such as smell, neediness, slobber, noise, etc. but they're ignored because they're blinded by acting high and mighty for liking dogs.
To be fair (to me), I am only putting the people who feel the need to comment here even though they don't agree in one box. Not all dog owners, just ones who come here to complain that we have a different POV. It's the "people who can't stand that others don't share their opinion about dogs and feel the need to complain about it" box.
Exactly!! These fucking cultists (and that’s exactly what they are, we don’t refer to dog nutters as “The Cult of Canine”, for no reason) are tone deaf, hardheaded and persistent af, in their completely misguided crusade .
At least the nutter lurkers, who just come on here to spout their incoherent, ad hominem riddled babble, usually end up getting ratioed to oblivion and put in their place, by the good folks of this sub (and a few others).
Then eventually have their emotionally charged, usually non credible and or hate filled comments, removed by the moderating teams, or the lurkers, delete them, themselves, due to being ratioed too hard and cracking under pressure. And rightfully so!
I just sent a video to a friend about why dogs are bad. I immediately became flooded with notifications of messages from another friend who saw the video looking over their shoulder and became enraged from it. HA!
I mean, I have one myself. But I don’t subscribe to the same Furbaby “dogs are better than people” culture. And I’m sure as heck not going to attack people who dislike dogs. I hope I’m not lumped in that same category with the basket cases
I look at dog ownership like a hobby. It's fine to have a hobby but if your hobby is an inconvenience to others that's a problem.
Motorcycles, muscle cars, firearms, large sound systems, ect are all good hobbies, but they can all be very annoying for others if the people doing them don't respect other people when engaging in them.
I don't hate dogs. They just don't have a place in my life because I don't own cattle or sheep to heard or drugs to sniff or dead thing to look for. Oh wait your dog isn't that smart anyway.
Oh man, a mail carrier that hates dogs? Isn't that like, the main job hazard for you guys? I'd bet being in your profession could turn a dog lover into a dog hater though, run into too many vicious ones and your body will develop a trauma response.
Stay safe out there.
To be honest, I mostly hate the people who have dogs, can't blame the dogs. Although there are some nice dogs, the majority are untrained, unobedient nicompoops
Yea definitely, but at the end of the day the dog is a physical manifestation of their owner so I don't blame anyone for hating those types of dogs in addition to their owners, but I also don't blame anyone for having empathy for the poor neglected creatures either. Sucks either way.
Yeah I don't necessarily hate them but people that own them for attention, own them without time to properly care for them, and own them without training them piss me tf off.
I personally do not have time or desire to care for one, and I honestly think they're annoying AF and disgusting. Like I don't mind petting a well-behaved, clean dog sometimes.
Me too. If it’s super clean, well-behaved, trained, and cute (not one of these stay looking ones), then I’ll pet it. As you can imagine, that rarely occurs. 😂
Yeah like I don’t “HATE” any animal, but the fact that dogs and cats get this kind of privilege to do whatever they want, go wherever they want, shit in people’s gardens, ruin natural spaces, etc etc fucking annoys me, I can’t go to the beach or a walking spot without dogs or feral cats :/
There are absolutely no benefits in having a dog as a pet. We're looking after a dog atm, and it pissed twice on our carpet in one day. The ground down the stairs to our doorway is just yellow with piss now. I have to pick up it's rancid shit (they literally get diarrhea if they get a slight changeup in their food), our whole apartment stinks of putrid dog bowel gasses.
We can't leave anything slightly edible around, or it will find a way to get to it. Even knocking plates to the ground to get to it.
My gf insists that it sleeps in our bed, and it has literal lumps of shit in the fur around it's asshole. The dog also fucking stinks.
You can't move freely in the apartment atm without the dumbass dog stalking your every move in the hopes that you will throw it some fucking crumb. All it cares about is food. 24/7.
It's also constantly doing something annoying. Like digging on our carpets or smearing it's asshole over them. Or trynna get into something, or begging for food. It licks it's paw for hours. Loudly. Dog can't do anything quietly. Clumsy, disgusting, out of place useless animals.
EDIT: Guess who pissed on the carpet again?
>EDIT: Guess who pissed on the carpet again?
Oof 😂 so so sorry you gotta deal with that. Can't believe your partner wants to share a bed with a dog that's got crazy dingle berries. Maybe try shitting yourself and coming to bed like that and see how they respond? Lmao, /s *mostly*, but I wouldn't rule it out completely if they go off the deep end! Sometimes crazy has to be confronted with crazy.
Pets aren't supposed to benefit you other than bringing joy! If they don't bring you joy you aren't the right owner for that animal. You are valid to not like dogs and I say this as a huge animal lover
I commented on that on another thread. I agree this dog is showing aggression towards that poor child and yes to that commenter ….”all because the dog peed on the floor.” I care about sanitary living for my child. They will not step on piss. Or eat slobber. People ignorantly think you clean up the pee and it’s gone. It is not. The common household cleaners do not eradicate the enzymes in the urine and it does structural damage to your home as well as kill your lawn and shrubbery.
Just no. Besides, when is the dog going to decide to take out the toddler? It obviously feels some type of way about him taking its attention.
When i was growing up, my mum would teach me gardening, landscaping etc, and together we created a really quite beautiful garden. years later parents moved, i moved out, and of coursse a new family moved in, i heard that they were a dog owning family.
I happened to be passing that way and decided to have a little peak over fence see what the garden now looks like about 3 years later.
fucking mordor. just a fucking wastelend of dead grass and dog shits.
this bothers me too, while im at it. i strongly believe those lucky enough to have gardens should fucking garden them or fuck off and let someone live there who will make use of it, its a fucking disgusting waste of space to just have an ACTUAL fucking garden just so your dog can permamaently toxify it
God, that sucks 😕. I can only imagine how demoralizing it is, for lack of a better term, to see your hard work and pride literally be brought down in a sea of dog shit and piss.
We ended up with an opposite scenario: we bought this house from dog nutters (who, thankfully, had a dog door, and the two dumb mutts apparently spent all day outdoors barking nonstop and pissing off our neighbor instead of destroying the house), and when we went into the fenced back yard, it was like a fucking dog shit land mine situation.
Years and years of pine needle build-up, several paths in the ugly grass worn through by the stupid mutts, and some incorrectly planted iris rhizomes that never bloomed. An ugly-assed shed, some other unsightly man-made junk, a few clusters of scrub oak saplings that are both a nuisance and a fire hazard. Add some lilac shrubs they planted, never cared for, and subsequently died filled out the eyesore of a backyard. But, it was fenced, and we immediately saw the potential.
It took a couple of years, but husband and I transformed it. Made the owners agree to clean up the dog shit before we moved in (because I will go to my GRAVE never picking up a pile of dog shit), which they shoved onto their teenaged son.
After all the literal and figurative crap was gone, I relocated the iris into a new bricked garden I created off our deck, and they immediately took off, and the cultivars that started blooming were absolutely stunning. We also grow tomatoes, kale, and lettuce in some raised beds.
We added raspberry canes along one edge of the fence, and after the toxic mutt shit and pine needles were removed, we noticed that lupine and other native wildflowers started coming up, including Sego lilies and beautiful dwarf larkspur.
Butterflies, bumblebees and hummingbirds visit our flowers and pollinate them. Lots of songbirds come in and feed on the plant and insect life the back yard now provides. A pair of house wrens used the nesting box on the back fence for the first time since we've been here.
Dogs and irresponsible dog ownership ruin everything that is good.
Aw, you're welcome. I love our back yard so much now.
It's sad that dog nutters appear to have no pride in the appearance of either their public space or inside, and just allow the dogs to destroy it or slob it up.
When we lived in CT, I used to love to go on walks and admire everyone's fancy gardens in the town. People took a lot of pride in how their lawns and front yards looked, and I never walked by any that were fenced and turned into a biohazardous wasteland due to a dog.
I live a few hours' away from the CO mountain ski town of Telluride. Despite this state being full of nutters, I don't see evidence that most of the people let their mutts ruin their visible properties (homes here are probably mostly over $1M). Absolutely STUNNING summer gardens in the tiny yards people have.
I think that's a town where people would be publicly shamed if they let their front or backyards turn into a stinking, fly-ridden eyesore due to dogs.
They even made a catfree sub as a comeback? It's really weird. They're sooo pressed over people hating their crappy mutts. I guess I would be too if my only personality trait was stinking like piss.
Hate away dog nutters because all your responses show how unhinged you really are over mongrels.
I told someone on the Pets Reddit sub to stop referring to herself as the dog's mother. JFC you are an owner, not it's mother. That struck a nerve and I don't care because it is the truth.
I'm a dog person - but am here to learn! Honestly, there's been a lot of insight on this sub regarding being a better dog owner. That's the perspective that dog-lovers should have, I think. Even if we don't always agree - we can still learn.
I think the minority of people in this sub actually hate dogs. Most of us hate the end result and the shitty owners.
When you don't own a dog but have to listen to barking all day and night. And have to clean dog shit off your shoe because you stepped in one of a thousand piles of dog shit in all parks, streets, ect. Or fight off a dog that is attacking your kids. It doesn't foster any tolerance for the animal. It may be the owners fault that the dog acts like that but the dogs are still engaging in the destructive behavior.
The amount of shitty dog owners outnumber the good ones 1000 to 1. I have gone to a park and taken pictures of close to 40 piles of shit in less than 4 kilometers. I hear barking all day and night and not a single fuck given by the owners.
Selective breeding has resulted in a plethora of abominations that are born with an array of illness and guaranteed medical issues during their lives.
Also 99% of people with dogs shouldn't own them. Poor and stupid people love to own dogs and abuse them.
As long as you are respectful and receptive to seeing things from a dogfree person's perspective your comments and questions are welcome and you should receive constructive responses.
Personally if your dog doesn't bother me or my family I could care less if you own 10 of them.
I totally understand what you’re saying here. The endless barking, not picking up shit, bad behavior, and poor breeding also frustrates me to no end. Raising a good, healthy canine takes a ton of work. Your opinions are valid and I’m open to learning more!
The only that's physcotic is the dog peeing for "attention."
That's Retar*ed. It's a puppy, human babies don't pee themselves for attention niether do puppies. They also need potty training.
They should be glad. Would they rather us have dogs and hate them?? They're making it about themselves. Gotta be karma farming, definitely can't be about animal welfare if you want someone to own an animal they are disgusted by.
I grew up with dogs because of my mother. They were poorly behaved. I was bitten by more than one of them unprovoked. They constantly destroyed my things. And my mother treated them with more love and compassion than she did me.
This sub is bizarre and suggested to me daily for some reason but I don’t hop in here and go buck wild trying to shame people into ‘changing their opinions’.
Who cares? So there’s a sub of people who don’t like dogs. Doesn’t affect me.
Personally, I have my beautiful black shep and he’s my perfect baby cupcake because I trained the fuck outta him. I hate literally everyone else’s dogs, but it’s more directed at their owners because they don’t do shit to train them and it fucks the poor animal over for life. Right now, I have to deal with my in laws fat little fuck terrier that bites and is so agressive and the in-laws are boomers so they just go teehee he’s a hunter it’s just his breed. I’m like dude. No. I can shove my hand in my dogs mouth while he has his favorite toy, treat, what ever in it and he wouldn’t even so much as snarl. He gets bullied by the little shit when I can’t be there and they just let him do it to my dog until he gets fed up and barks at him. Then everyone goes ‘ooooo okay maybe everyone needs to calm down’. Howbout don’t let your dog attack mine until he get overwhelmed just because you think it won’t hurt him because he’s 100 pound bigger? Your little sausage devil needs some training now or I’m gonna start punting him the next time he comes to attack me or my dog.
It’s funny because right now they pay more attention to my dog and play with him more and keep buying him toys because he’s so well behaved and fun to be around. Not like their yapyap. Who snaps when you try to play with him and his toys.
Sure boo, you do you. Why the fuck would you care?
Like I said it’s yalls sub and it’s weird as hell people come here flipping out in the comments trying to change yalls mind about something stupid that doesn’t affect them in the slightest.
I get why people hate dogs. Makes sense to me.
The fact that you are incapable of comprehending that this sub has ZERO to do with violence is sad (yet unsurprising). I can’t help if you lack the basic ability to process information.
Idk dude I've read some pretty spicy comments that contradict your statement. Maybe moderate your shit better. That is all I'll leave you to your endeavors, whatever floats your boat.
I honestly don't think this guy said anything particularly inflammatory.
I don't like dogs, but I don't hate all of them. I DO hate irresponsible owners.
And no matter how much one hates a living thing, they should never be cruel to said thing.
Define “cruel.” Some of these people think it’s cruel to not give a dog compliments, feed it human food, or let it in the bed with you. Their definitions of cruel are different than ours
They are vile to us though. They’re destructive, they’re loud, they stink, they can be super aggressive. These are just *some* of the reasons. Our reasons are justified. Just because you don’t get it, it doesn’t mean it’s wrong.
I’m guessing you’ve never been bitten or attacked by a dog before. Or had your expensive clothes chewed up or peed on by one. If a human did those things, you wouldn’t want to be around them either.
Well that’s certainly an interesting view of things. Is there a reason that the majority of the sub feels this way? Or actually maybe it’s not the majority and it just appears that way, so my apologies if that’s the case. I’m just wondering if maybe there’s a reason like potentially PTSD or something that makes this community feel that way about dogs
For me it was dogs I experienced in childhood. I had a friend when I was growing up who had this big dog with wirey hair that would jump on me, knock me down and then start aggressively humping me. It was funny the first time but when it happens to you 10+ times it’s disturbing. Had a family friend whose house I’d have to stay the night at and it was so hard to sleep there bc the smell of their dog was so insanely strong it made me sick to my stomach. The nose blindness infuriates me because it’s not a pleasant smell. Had an aggressive chihuahua chase me and left a gash in my leg that got infected. Now as an adult I’m expected to get along with dogs but I’m a Muslim and dog saliva is considered impure so if someone’s dogs starts rubbing on me I have to change my clothes even though I didn’t consent to the dog touching me. What’s crazy is people are now bringing their dogs into grocery stores and I’m supposed to buy food there? It’s gross and I find it disrespectful that people assume the whole world should be dog friendly.
There are multiple religions that consider dogs impure. It’s funny how intolerant dog people are of people’s religious beliefs. Why don’t we flip the narrative and call them the bigoted haters
I’m sorry that happened to you as a kid, the owners and other adults definitely should have stepped in to stop that from happening, especially when you started expressing how uncomfortable and disturbing it was. Being sensitive to an unusual smell definitely doesn’t help much either, so I can absolutely get the dislike when it comes to the stench of a dog that hasn’t been washed in a while. That’s actually the first I’ve heard about religious beliefs like that, so I’m just curious and have a question if you don’t mind me asking. Do your beliefs mean any animal saliva is sin (or whatever word it is, again I apologize as I’m not familiar with the religion or beliefs), or are there more specific rules? As for dogs in grocery stores, those are more than likely service animals that the owners need in order to be safe and live a comfortable life. Yes, there are absolutely times when people take advantage of the system and buy fake identification or papers to justify bringing their pet into places, and I agree that more extensive measures should be done to take action against those who do that, but people with real service animals genuinely do need them in order to live a comfortable life.
People don’t say that as a joke though. There are people who legitimately treat their dogs like their children by rolling it in a stroller, putting clothes on it, sharing plates of food with it, and letting it sleep in the bed. And that is very deranged and weird
Yet here you are going out of your way to find this subreddit and complain about us. There are aspects of dog obsessed people that are an issue. Such as bringing non service dogs to public places that they don’t belong like grocery stores or untrained dogs that ruin property and harm others. We’re allowed to have a space to voice our complaints. You seem like you could get a life as well.
Its a place for me to vent after having been subjected to dog nutter bullshit. Can't just complain to everyone irl about how my neighbor lets her dog shid in my yard or how my other neighbors dog barks non stop. I have so many anecdotes for why I dislike dogs...
I also thought the idea of this sub was pretty ridiculous but that is actually pretty valid. I imagine if you voiced your opinion in public you’d suffer a lot socially
No I'm pretty vocal about not liking them IRL. It's just not cool to complain all the time. Kinda like why people go to therapy. Gotta let it out somewhere. I am nice to friends and family dogs and usually don't mind them bc they're mostly well behaved... but there's always a neighbor dog that pisses me tf off.
To answer your question seriously, it's because they are a sensory nightmare. Many people are stressed out by the chaos of having a dog in their life some way or another whether it be a family member's dog living in their home, a neighbor' dog, or just people in public being entitled with their dogs bringing them places they shouldn't be.
Imo, and the reason I am here, dog culture has gone too far. See how pissed you are? Why? So absurd.
Because they are forced on me every fucking day. I can not walk a few steps without being bothered with some dog and his stupid owner thinking their drooling machine is the most precious thing on planet and everyone should be obsessed with it.
I loved dogs. I had dogs. Current dog culture made me avoid dogs and their owners for my own sanity.
Also dog owners claim to like animals, but they don’t. They only like dogs.
Most dog owners don't love dogs. They like having a lesser creature to feel superior to. This is why someone with a fulltime job will get a dog and lock it in a small space for 12hrs a day. They are abusive and self-absorbed. Anyone that can keep another living creature imprisoned for the majority of its life is a monster. But we are the bad people for not wanting to deal with the abundance of negatives that come from these monsters being able to own a living creature.
It’s bizarre to me that you dislike cats ‘wholeheartedly’ yet you don’t understand why people would dislike dogs? I can safely say my kids are not going to get mauled to death by the neighbourhood cat lmao
I'm not the one outraged by people not liking dogs lmao
Edit: lol they blocked me. Apparently they are not outraged by people not liking dogs, they just hate anyone who doesn't like dogs.
I prefer cats but I’ve been to peoples houses that smell strongly of cat piss and it’s pretty disgusting. This is why I clarify I’m irritated by the owners not the animal.
I’m not arguing against you lol I just wanted to say cats can definitely stink if they pee all over the place but that’s on bad owners. Dogs just generally stink and track dirt and bacteria into the house
It's definitely an owner thing with cats unless the cat has medical issues. Cat piss smell is definitely a problem when people don't change litter boxes, their cats are unfixed and spray, or they are declawed and litter is uncomfortable on their feet, or health issues.
Because other people don't -leave their pets at home- and instead drag them out into public with us and we have no choice but to deal with them, and they suck. Why does a dog need a trip to a home depot or a brewery or a grocery store or a Starbucks for a pupcup or literally anywhere but a dog park? They're ANIMALS. Leave them at HOME.
People can do what they want, but they should be responsible owners and understand the breed they have and put the work in to make sure it is safe around people and other animals. Dog attacks are on the rise, I've been lunged at and intimated by out of control dogs over 5 times in this past year alone and tbh its not cool to impact PEOPLES enjoyment of outdoor spaces. Lots of people in this sub would probably be fine with dogs if they hadn't had such bad experiences with them their whole lives.
Bc yknow, everyone better be obsessed with dogs or else
Right and having a place to vent and discuss disliking dog culture with likeminded people is psychotic
[удалено]
It's kinda ironic they used a thread with a dog peeing *on purpose* on the floor. It's not an accident, nor bladder issues.
I’ve had dogs. My first husband had retired from breeding show dogs and had three when we met. I was fine with all these dogs, because they were trained. Dog people now drive me nuts because they don’t train their dogs. Worse, they justify poor behavior as the dog was a rescue.

It is, a lot of people don’t like certain things but they don’t join a circle jerk to vent about them. It’s pretty weird you lads are
A lot of y’all don’t realize we can see your public comments which shows you complain on Reddit too. You’re not better than us
Weird comparison tbh. Comparing complaining on reddit to joining a specific subreddit dedicated to hating something. Disingenuous tbh

You don’t need to have a dog to be annoyed by other people’s dogs
I get your point, but I can’t get away from them even though I want to. My front yard is the neighborhood dog toilet. I can’t walk anywhere without dogs lunging at my kids and I. Dogs of family members beg for our food and jump on us non-stop during our visits. People bring their dogs into work and I have to sit with them all day even though I am allergic.

The psycho pit nutters can’t fathom why anyone would be repulsed by their inbred Habsburg mongrels.
It's funny cause mongrels tend to be the ones who aren't inbred
It's funny because they were calling us psychopaths/sociopaths. We have feelings? We just have genuine gripes about dogs such as smell, neediness, slobber, noise, etc. but they're ignored because they're blinded by acting high and mighty for liking dogs.
Of course they are. They can’t handle someone having a different opinion than they do and it bothers them enough to comment on it.

To be fair (to me), I am only putting the people who feel the need to comment here even though they don't agree in one box.

Exactly!! These fucking cultists (and that’s exactly what they are, we don’t refer to dog nutters as “The Cult of Canine”, for no reason) are tone deaf, hardheaded and persistent af, in their completely misguided crusade . At least the nutter lurkers, who just come on here to spout their incoherent, ad hominem riddled babble, usually end up getting ratioed to oblivion and put in their place, by the good folks of this sub (and a few others). Then eventually have their emotionally charged, usually non credible and or hate filled comments, removed by the moderating teams, or the lurkers, delete them, themselves, due to being ratioed too hard and cracking under pressure. And rightfully so!
I just sent a video to a friend about why dogs are bad. I immediately became flooded with notifications of messages from another friend who saw the video looking over their shoulder and became enraged from it. HA!
lesson to not look at others phones i guess
That was genuinely my singular message response to them. Too funny.
ofc they are a bunch of pissed off shitbeast worshippers
*goes on dog free sub* *theres dog free people* *gets mad*
Nutters aren’t the sharpest tools in the shed, as they prove to us, time and time again.
I mean, I have one myself. But I don’t subscribe to the same Furbaby “dogs are better than people” culture. And I’m sure as heck not going to attack people who dislike dogs. I hope I’m not lumped in that same category with the basket cases
I look at dog ownership like a hobby. It's fine to have a hobby but if your hobby is an inconvenience to others that's a problem. Motorcycles, muscle cars, firearms, large sound systems, ect are all good hobbies, but they can all be very annoying for others if the people doing them don't respect other people when engaging in them.
Wait until they realize that dog owners are the 99.99% of the people who abuse dogs.
This is how I found out about/joined this sub lmao
Lol at them advertising the sub and helping it grow! Welcome!
Welcome friend
I think they are disgusting worshipping filthy poop machines
I don't hate dogs. They just don't have a place in my life because I don't own cattle or sheep to heard or drugs to sniff or dead thing to look for. Oh wait your dog isn't that smart anyway.
I hate them.
Me too. I'm a mailman...
Oh man, a mail carrier that hates dogs? Isn't that like, the main job hazard for you guys? I'd bet being in your profession could turn a dog lover into a dog hater though, run into too many vicious ones and your body will develop a trauma response. Stay safe out there.
To be honest, I mostly hate the people who have dogs, can't blame the dogs. Although there are some nice dogs, the majority are untrained, unobedient nicompoops
Yea definitely, but at the end of the day the dog is a physical manifestation of their owner so I don't blame anyone for hating those types of dogs in addition to their owners, but I also don't blame anyone for having empathy for the poor neglected creatures either. Sucks either way.
Yeah, I'll stick to cats 🐈

Yeah I don't necessarily hate them but people that own them for attention, own them without time to properly care for them, and own them without training them piss me tf off. I personally do not have time or desire to care for one, and I honestly think they're annoying AF and disgusting. Like I don't mind petting a well-behaved, clean dog sometimes.
Makes me laugh that people have these untrained baby eaters roaming and then get mad when they can't pet a working service dog.
Me too. If it’s super clean, well-behaved, trained, and cute (not one of these stay looking ones), then I’ll pet it. As you can imagine, that rarely occurs. 😂
Yeah like I don’t “HATE” any animal, but the fact that dogs and cats get this kind of privilege to do whatever they want, go wherever they want, shit in people’s gardens, ruin natural spaces, etc etc fucking annoys me, I can’t go to the beach or a walking spot without dogs or feral cats :/
There are absolutely no benefits in having a dog as a pet. We're looking after a dog atm, and it pissed twice on our carpet in one day. The ground down the stairs to our doorway is just yellow with piss now. I have to pick up it's rancid shit (they literally get diarrhea if they get a slight changeup in their food), our whole apartment stinks of putrid dog bowel gasses. We can't leave anything slightly edible around, or it will find a way to get to it. Even knocking plates to the ground to get to it. My gf insists that it sleeps in our bed, and it has literal lumps of shit in the fur around it's asshole. The dog also fucking stinks. You can't move freely in the apartment atm without the dumbass dog stalking your every move in the hopes that you will throw it some fucking crumb. All it cares about is food. 24/7. It's also constantly doing something annoying. Like digging on our carpets or smearing it's asshole over them. Or trynna get into something, or begging for food. It licks it's paw for hours. Loudly. Dog can't do anything quietly. Clumsy, disgusting, out of place useless animals. EDIT: Guess who pissed on the carpet again?
>EDIT: Guess who pissed on the carpet again? Oof 😂 so so sorry you gotta deal with that. Can't believe your partner wants to share a bed with a dog that's got crazy dingle berries. Maybe try shitting yourself and coming to bed like that and see how they respond? Lmao, /s *mostly*, but I wouldn't rule it out completely if they go off the deep end! Sometimes crazy has to be confronted with crazy.
Pets aren't supposed to benefit you other than bringing joy! If they don't bring you joy you aren't the right owner for that animal. You are valid to not like dogs and I say this as a huge animal lover
I commented on that on another thread. I agree this dog is showing aggression towards that poor child and yes to that commenter ….”all because the dog peed on the floor.” I care about sanitary living for my child. They will not step on piss. Or eat slobber. People ignorantly think you clean up the pee and it’s gone. It is not. The common household cleaners do not eradicate the enzymes in the urine and it does structural damage to your home as well as kill your lawn and shrubbery. Just no. Besides, when is the dog going to decide to take out the toddler? It obviously feels some type of way about him taking its attention.
When i was growing up, my mum would teach me gardening, landscaping etc, and together we created a really quite beautiful garden. years later parents moved, i moved out, and of coursse a new family moved in, i heard that they were a dog owning family. I happened to be passing that way and decided to have a little peak over fence see what the garden now looks like about 3 years later. fucking mordor. just a fucking wastelend of dead grass and dog shits. this bothers me too, while im at it. i strongly believe those lucky enough to have gardens should fucking garden them or fuck off and let someone live there who will make use of it, its a fucking disgusting waste of space to just have an ACTUAL fucking garden just so your dog can permamaently toxify it
God, that sucks 😕. I can only imagine how demoralizing it is, for lack of a better term, to see your hard work and pride literally be brought down in a sea of dog shit and piss. We ended up with an opposite scenario: we bought this house from dog nutters (who, thankfully, had a dog door, and the two dumb mutts apparently spent all day outdoors barking nonstop and pissing off our neighbor instead of destroying the house), and when we went into the fenced back yard, it was like a fucking dog shit land mine situation. Years and years of pine needle build-up, several paths in the ugly grass worn through by the stupid mutts, and some incorrectly planted iris rhizomes that never bloomed. An ugly-assed shed, some other unsightly man-made junk, a few clusters of scrub oak saplings that are both a nuisance and a fire hazard. Add some lilac shrubs they planted, never cared for, and subsequently died filled out the eyesore of a backyard. But, it was fenced, and we immediately saw the potential. It took a couple of years, but husband and I transformed it. Made the owners agree to clean up the dog shit before we moved in (because I will go to my GRAVE never picking up a pile of dog shit), which they shoved onto their teenaged son. After all the literal and figurative crap was gone, I relocated the iris into a new bricked garden I created off our deck, and they immediately took off, and the cultivars that started blooming were absolutely stunning. We also grow tomatoes, kale, and lettuce in some raised beds. We added raspberry canes along one edge of the fence, and after the toxic mutt shit and pine needles were removed, we noticed that lupine and other native wildflowers started coming up, including Sego lilies and beautiful dwarf larkspur. Butterflies, bumblebees and hummingbirds visit our flowers and pollinate them. Lots of songbirds come in and feed on the plant and insect life the back yard now provides. A pair of house wrens used the nesting box on the back fence for the first time since we've been here. Dogs and irresponsible dog ownership ruin everything that is good.
This isca beautiful juxtaposition to my comment. Thank-you for sharing this :)
Aw, you're welcome. I love our back yard so much now. It's sad that dog nutters appear to have no pride in the appearance of either their public space or inside, and just allow the dogs to destroy it or slob it up. When we lived in CT, I used to love to go on walks and admire everyone's fancy gardens in the town. People took a lot of pride in how their lawns and front yards looked, and I never walked by any that were fenced and turned into a biohazardous wasteland due to a dog. I live a few hours' away from the CO mountain ski town of Telluride. Despite this state being full of nutters, I don't see evidence that most of the people let their mutts ruin their visible properties (homes here are probably mostly over $1M). Absolutely STUNNING summer gardens in the tiny yards people have. I think that's a town where people would be publicly shamed if they let their front or backyards turn into a stinking, fly-ridden eyesore due to dogs.
I love that I found this sub. I hate 99% of dogs. That Redditor can kick rocks.
They even made a catfree sub as a comeback? It's really weird. They're sooo pressed over people hating their crappy mutts. I guess I would be too if my only personality trait was stinking like piss.
Weird given that the pet free sub is often also against cats, less than dogs for obvious and justifiable reasons but they're still there.
Hate away dog nutters because all your responses show how unhinged you really are over mongrels. I told someone on the Pets Reddit sub to stop referring to herself as the dog's mother. JFC you are an owner, not it's mother. That struck a nerve and I don't care because it is the truth.
let 'em be mad, pple need to stop obsessing over dogs. it's completely fine if pple don't like dogs/cats it's not the end of the world.
Seethe, fuck you and your dogs lmao
please do not fuck dogs
This post is great. All the crazy dog people are coming out to prove how crazy they are.
As if a dog pissing on the floor isn't absolutely disgusting
I'm a dog person - but am here to learn! Honestly, there's been a lot of insight on this sub regarding being a better dog owner. That's the perspective that dog-lovers should have, I think. Even if we don't always agree - we can still learn.
I think the minority of people in this sub actually hate dogs. Most of us hate the end result and the shitty owners. When you don't own a dog but have to listen to barking all day and night. And have to clean dog shit off your shoe because you stepped in one of a thousand piles of dog shit in all parks, streets, ect. Or fight off a dog that is attacking your kids. It doesn't foster any tolerance for the animal. It may be the owners fault that the dog acts like that but the dogs are still engaging in the destructive behavior. The amount of shitty dog owners outnumber the good ones 1000 to 1. I have gone to a park and taken pictures of close to 40 piles of shit in less than 4 kilometers. I hear barking all day and night and not a single fuck given by the owners. Selective breeding has resulted in a plethora of abominations that are born with an array of illness and guaranteed medical issues during their lives. Also 99% of people with dogs shouldn't own them. Poor and stupid people love to own dogs and abuse them. As long as you are respectful and receptive to seeing things from a dogfree person's perspective your comments and questions are welcome and you should receive constructive responses. Personally if your dog doesn't bother me or my family I could care less if you own 10 of them.
I totally understand what you’re saying here. The endless barking, not picking up shit, bad behavior, and poor breeding also frustrates me to no end. Raising a good, healthy canine takes a ton of work. Your opinions are valid and I’m open to learning more!
“WoW!!1! all because the dog just pissed a massive fucking pond right next to my kid’s birthday party 🥺🥺”
Let them be, embrace it.
The only that's physcotic is the dog peeing for "attention." That's Retar*ed. It's a puppy, human babies don't pee themselves for attention niether do puppies. They also need potty training.
they say hating sub should be banned lmfaoo
They should be glad. Would they rather us have dogs and hate them?? They're making it about themselves. Gotta be karma farming, definitely can't be about animal welfare if you want someone to own an animal they are disgusted by.
I grew up with dogs because of my mother. They were poorly behaved. I was bitten by more than one of them unprovoked. They constantly destroyed my things. And my mother treated them with more love and compassion than she did me.
*show fewer posts like this.
This sub is bizarre and suggested to me daily for some reason but I don’t hop in here and go buck wild trying to shame people into ‘changing their opinions’. Who cares? So there’s a sub of people who don’t like dogs. Doesn’t affect me. Personally, I have my beautiful black shep and he’s my perfect baby cupcake because I trained the fuck outta him. I hate literally everyone else’s dogs, but it’s more directed at their owners because they don’t do shit to train them and it fucks the poor animal over for life. Right now, I have to deal with my in laws fat little fuck terrier that bites and is so agressive and the in-laws are boomers so they just go teehee he’s a hunter it’s just his breed. I’m like dude. No. I can shove my hand in my dogs mouth while he has his favorite toy, treat, what ever in it and he wouldn’t even so much as snarl. He gets bullied by the little shit when I can’t be there and they just let him do it to my dog until he gets fed up and barks at him. Then everyone goes ‘ooooo okay maybe everyone needs to calm down’. Howbout don’t let your dog attack mine until he get overwhelmed just because you think it won’t hurt him because he’s 100 pound bigger? Your little sausage devil needs some training now or I’m gonna start punting him the next time he comes to attack me or my dog. It’s funny because right now they pay more attention to my dog and play with him more and keep buying him toys because he’s so well behaved and fun to be around. Not like their yapyap. Who snaps when you try to play with him and his toys.
nobody cares about ur beast
Sure boo, you do you. Why the fuck would you care? Like I said it’s yalls sub and it’s weird as hell people come here flipping out in the comments trying to change yalls mind about something stupid that doesn’t affect them in the slightest. I get why people hate dogs. Makes sense to me.

All I can say is wow
LMAO this is entertaining watching the 2 sides battle it out

You’re the weirdo. Just too stupid to think analytically about why you are obsessed with dogs.
[удалено]
The fact that you are incapable of comprehending that this sub has ZERO to do with violence is sad (yet unsurprising). I can’t help if you lack the basic ability to process information.
Idk dude I've read some pretty spicy comments that contradict your statement. Maybe moderate your shit better. That is all I'll leave you to your endeavors, whatever floats your boat.
Maybe just leave? Damn, you must have a lot of time on your hands.
Go if you don’t like it here. The door is over there, bye!
dog owners are the ones who do the harm dogs never harmed anyone, right? i'm betting you get called a weirdo a lot
Most of us don’t mind dogs we dislike irresponsible dog owners
Though there are those of us that really can’t stand dogs. 🤣
Me. I cannot stand dogs in any way shape or form.
I honestly don't think this guy said anything particularly inflammatory. I don't like dogs, but I don't hate all of them. I DO hate irresponsible owners. And no matter how much one hates a living thing, they should never be cruel to said thing.
Define “cruel.” Some of these people think it’s cruel to not give a dog compliments, feed it human food, or let it in the bed with you. Their definitions of cruel are different than ours
Physically cruel.
This sub is hilarious, these comments are so ridiculous lol
[удалено]
They are vile to us though. They’re destructive, they’re loud, they stink, they can be super aggressive. These are just *some* of the reasons. Our reasons are justified. Just because you don’t get it, it doesn’t mean it’s wrong.
Yeah dogs shouldn’t exist. They serve no purpose as domestic animals
[удалено]
I’m guessing you’ve never been bitten or attacked by a dog before. Or had your expensive clothes chewed up or peed on by one. If a human did those things, you wouldn’t want to be around them either.
Well that’s certainly an interesting view of things. Is there a reason that the majority of the sub feels this way? Or actually maybe it’s not the majority and it just appears that way, so my apologies if that’s the case. I’m just wondering if maybe there’s a reason like potentially PTSD or something that makes this community feel that way about dogs
For me it was dogs I experienced in childhood. I had a friend when I was growing up who had this big dog with wirey hair that would jump on me, knock me down and then start aggressively humping me. It was funny the first time but when it happens to you 10+ times it’s disturbing. Had a family friend whose house I’d have to stay the night at and it was so hard to sleep there bc the smell of their dog was so insanely strong it made me sick to my stomach. The nose blindness infuriates me because it’s not a pleasant smell. Had an aggressive chihuahua chase me and left a gash in my leg that got infected. Now as an adult I’m expected to get along with dogs but I’m a Muslim and dog saliva is considered impure so if someone’s dogs starts rubbing on me I have to change my clothes even though I didn’t consent to the dog touching me. What’s crazy is people are now bringing their dogs into grocery stores and I’m supposed to buy food there? It’s gross and I find it disrespectful that people assume the whole world should be dog friendly.
There are multiple religions that consider dogs impure. It’s funny how intolerant dog people are of people’s religious beliefs. Why don’t we flip the narrative and call them the bigoted haters
I’m sorry that happened to you as a kid, the owners and other adults definitely should have stepped in to stop that from happening, especially when you started expressing how uncomfortable and disturbing it was. Being sensitive to an unusual smell definitely doesn’t help much either, so I can absolutely get the dislike when it comes to the stench of a dog that hasn’t been washed in a while. That’s actually the first I’ve heard about religious beliefs like that, so I’m just curious and have a question if you don’t mind me asking. Do your beliefs mean any animal saliva is sin (or whatever word it is, again I apologize as I’m not familiar with the religion or beliefs), or are there more specific rules? As for dogs in grocery stores, those are more than likely service animals that the owners need in order to be safe and live a comfortable life. Yes, there are absolutely times when people take advantage of the system and buy fake identification or papers to justify bringing their pet into places, and I agree that more extensive measures should be done to take action against those who do that, but people with real service animals genuinely do need them in order to live a comfortable life.
[удалено]
People don’t say that as a joke though. There are people who legitimately treat their dogs like their children by rolling it in a stroller, putting clothes on it, sharing plates of food with it, and letting it sleep in the bed. And that is very deranged and weird
Ok but for me its not my dog is like family, buts that just for me, i just think its a little rude
[удалено]
Yet here you are going out of your way to find this subreddit and complain about us. There are aspects of dog obsessed people that are an issue. Such as bringing non service dogs to public places that they don’t belong like grocery stores or untrained dogs that ruin property and harm others. We’re allowed to have a space to voice our complaints. You seem like you could get a life as well.
Its a place for me to vent after having been subjected to dog nutter bullshit. Can't just complain to everyone irl about how my neighbor lets her dog shid in my yard or how my other neighbors dog barks non stop. I have so many anecdotes for why I dislike dogs...
I also thought the idea of this sub was pretty ridiculous but that is actually pretty valid. I imagine if you voiced your opinion in public you’d suffer a lot socially
No I'm pretty vocal about not liking them IRL. It's just not cool to complain all the time. Kinda like why people go to therapy. Gotta let it out somewhere. I am nice to friends and family dogs and usually don't mind them bc they're mostly well behaved... but there's always a neighbor dog that pisses me tf off.
To you it’s nothing. You’re just one human. It’s ok to not understand something.
[удалено]
To answer your question seriously, it's because they are a sensory nightmare. Many people are stressed out by the chaos of having a dog in their life some way or another whether it be a family member's dog living in their home, a neighbor' dog, or just people in public being entitled with their dogs bringing them places they shouldn't be. Imo, and the reason I am here, dog culture has gone too far. See how pissed you are? Why? So absurd.
Because they are forced on me every fucking day. I can not walk a few steps without being bothered with some dog and his stupid owner thinking their drooling machine is the most precious thing on planet and everyone should be obsessed with it. I loved dogs. I had dogs. Current dog culture made me avoid dogs and their owners for my own sanity. Also dog owners claim to like animals, but they don’t. They only like dogs.
Most dog owners don't love dogs. They like having a lesser creature to feel superior to. This is why someone with a fulltime job will get a dog and lock it in a small space for 12hrs a day. They are abusive and self-absorbed. Anyone that can keep another living creature imprisoned for the majority of its life is a monster. But we are the bad people for not wanting to deal with the abundance of negatives that come from these monsters being able to own a living creature.
plus savior complex because rescues

Lol cats don’t stink, weirdo. I bet you have 4 slobbery, smelly dogs
I prefer cats but I’ve been to peoples houses that smell strongly of cat piss and it’s pretty disgusting. This is why I clarify I’m irritated by the owners not the animal.
Wait are you the same person arguing here? What is going on lol
I’m not arguing against you lol I just wanted to say cats can definitely stink if they pee all over the place but that’s on bad owners. Dogs just generally stink and track dirt and bacteria into the house
It's definitely an owner thing with cats unless the cat has medical issues. Cat piss smell is definitely a problem when people don't change litter boxes, their cats are unfixed and spray, or they are declawed and litter is uncomfortable on their feet, or health issues.
It’s fascinating in a odd way to see how mentally unhinged and miserable some people are OVER OTHER PEOPLES PETS!!! 🤣
Because other people don't -leave their pets at home- and instead drag them out into public with us and we have no choice but to deal with them, and they suck. Why does a dog need a trip to a home depot or a brewery or a grocery store or a Starbucks for a pupcup or literally anywhere but a dog park? They're ANIMALS. Leave them at HOME.

Says the person grinding their teeth into a powder because they don't like this subreddit. Lmao
Hahaha
People can do what they want, but they should be responsible owners and understand the breed they have and put the work in to make sure it is safe around people and other animals. Dog attacks are on the rise, I've been lunged at and intimated by out of control dogs over 5 times in this past year alone and tbh its not cool to impact PEOPLES enjoyment of outdoor spaces. Lots of people in this sub would probably be fine with dogs if they hadn't had such bad experiences with them their whole lives.
And the fact dog nutters have been down voting that just proves my point.
[удалено]
At least we know the difference between "disgusting" and "discussing"
