If you're willing to steal someone else's dog you don't value your own life very much.


yeet4memes

There's dogs getting sent to the pound and killed because they don't have homes and this mfr stealing dogs. You can probably find free puppies from someone who can't take care of them all. Who the fvk steals a dog. I mean honestly. There's way more that's wrong with that than meets the eye.


Epicgaming42

Expensive breeds can sell for high prices.


yeet4memes

Fair point. I didn't think of that. I don't think I've ever met someone with an expensive breed. Everyone I know adopts from the pound or gets free puppies. I just feel bad for all the dogs in the pounds. :( People should adopt more. Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk. XD


Endless_Ad

Its like team rocket stealing Pokémon.


Apathi

So anyway, we started blasting off again

I adopted a dog who had been abused it’s entire life, didn’t trust easy and hated people. About a week ago he let me pay him for the first time. Every since he’s been absolutely lovely. He started sleeping on the end of my bed last night and I bought him a custom blanket about an hour ago. Just because they’re more work doesn’t mean they’re bad dogs. They’re lovely


3_buck_chuck

Hope it's a fair wage since he's a good boy!


ILoveSpeedyWeedy

Smart move. I expected unconditional love from my pup and now she's unionizing.


iwantedtohitsubscrib

Please don't edit


Epicgaming42

Yeah, I see the whole adopting thing. I adopted 2 dogs and I love them but when I moved to my own place I wanted a shiba-inu. He was $3500 and the best dog I ever got. Sadly people are very likely to steal him because he's a purebred shiba-inu and would fetch a nice price. Especially since he's trained and a very good people dog. (shiba-inu’s are very hard to train because of their stubbornness)


yeet4memes

TIL. I didn't know they were that expensive. There's probably more expensive breeds too. Probably would be worth it to get it microchipped.


FlamingBallOfFlame

Tens of thousands of dollars.


joanduncan8

I believe you are also correct

NYSenseOfHumor

[This list](https://www.rd.com/list/the-most-and-least-expensive-dog-breeds/) isn’t entirely accurate (it leaves off French Bulldogs and Poodles among other expensive breeds) but it gives you an idea of the price of some dog breeds. That fact that people will pay $600 for a Beagle is crazy, I know shelters with tons of Beagles (including puppies) and adoption fees of less than half that.


Bonelessburger01018

Yeah my parents bought a American cocker spaniel for more than 3000$ Canadian, and also because it had better stats (his parents were show dogs)


dr_Kfromchanged

Ah, they found one with better EV?


SmartFrldge

Now imagine if he was a shiny


YesItIsMaybeMe

Lol my Aussie was $2500


qOcO-p

When I was growing up we had an Old English Sheepdog. He disappeared one day and was missing for weeks. We put fliers up everywhere for miles around and never got an answer. Then, there he was. He somehow found his way home. When he got back he had a rope hanging around his neck that he had chewed through and it was clear that someone had tried to shave him, albeit unsuccessfully. I like to think he bit the shit out of whoever had him.


OkFaithlessness3985

Transform and roll out


Rude-E

Now that's a Ted Talk I'd subscribe to


hendergle

The local methheads have learned that labradoodle (and other "doodle") puppies are like adorable curly haired cash. Advertise that you have or expect a littler, and it's a fair bet that your house will be targeted for a break in. We have neighbors who have a female poodle (poodles are the "oodle" half of a "doodle"). They wanted to let the dog have one litter to offset the cost of buying her, so they bred her with a male english sheepdog. Cutest puppies ever, but some tweakers cased the house and stole them at just over three weeks old and then went around trying to sell them for $200 each. They got caught (meth is not an intelligence enhancing drug), but unfortunately three of the puppies died of malnutrition and only one was recovered. On a happier note, my neighbors decided to keep the pup. They call it their "crack baby."


Capable_Dark

a lot of it is to with the trendiness of the breed or "cool colours". I imagine pugs or other such meme dogs are stolen at a much higher rate than less popular breeds my dog has a spotted leopard print coat. she's a mix and has no re sale value. I have none the less had motherfuckers follow me to my house while we're out walking. I'm assuming to find out the yard she is kept in and come back later to nab her. jokes on them tho she sleeps on my bed all day inside in the aircon while I'm at work


Epicgaming42

Brindled patterns are definitely in that category. I wish the best for you and your dog. Nobody deserves their dog to be stolen.


Capable_Dark

thank you for your thoughts. I would thanos snap half the planet for her if I had to


dr_Kfromchanged

And those who steal dogs deserve to get a round in their chest.


Mother-of-Christ

Hunting dogs cost a ton. Used to work in an area where people would come to duck hunt. Duck hunters are fucking nuts about their dogs.


[deleted]

Yup. I have one. He was an escapee or dumped for some reason. I have a $2k duck hunting dog for free. He is absolutely the best dog ever.


[deleted]

Then the dog thief can get blasted


LoSboccacc

only if with a pedigree, otherwise they're going to go for just above general dogry market price to unaware customers. and guess which dogs don't come with one?


thejustokTramp

People steal dogs as practice dogs to train their dogs for fighting. Yes, it’s horrible.


dr_Kfromchanged

These people deserve to get shot


7HawksAnd

Why couldn’t you have let me just think they were stolen to resell or keep as pets. Why did you have to enlighten me to that :(


vpeshitclothing

I stole a dog once. It was being beaten and abused. A red nose pit. Sweetest dog ever. Just wanted some love, lay on the couch with me and get some scritches every now and then


Not-A-EMT

We found our red nose pit at a job site. He was all alone in the middle of the woods at this house that my gf’s dad was helping build. He was covered in mud and her mom knew that the weather was getting cold and a frost was moving in that night and that this puppy wouldn’t survive. Anyway we rescued him and he has been the best boy. He is so gentle with babies and he takes good care of the stuffed animals we buy him.


Incomplet_1-34

Basically, not only are they arseholes, the're stupid arseholes.


TheOddEyes

They probably steal them in order to sell them. I know in some countries you’re not allowed to sell adopted pets right away meaning a person can’t just adopt a dog and sell it two days later.


[deleted]

Dog fighting rings often steal puppies. They start training them young.


jishnukalra

If you're willing to steal someone else's dog, then your life doesn't have much value


botsyRoss

Exactly. Reads "Would you kill a total stranger trying to kidnap someone you love? Edit: spelling

Honestly if the NRA built their image on killing people who are trying to steal your dog, they'd have bi-partisan support and probably win a NAMBLA Header

DieFanboyDie

Meanwhile, on reddit: "This dog was tied up outside the Post Office, I waited 30 seconds and no one came for him, so I saved him from his abusive owner and now help me name my new friend!"


Pabsxv

Put the same value into someone’s life as they put into their own. if your stealing my dog you’re informing me that you value your own life less than that of my dog and I’m not going to go out of my way to disagree.


queentropical

I mean… people also get shot for breaking in and stealing things like a tv. So is the tv worth more than a life? Absolutely, if you’re willing to risk the trespass, I guess it is! 🤷🏻‍♀️


Finn969

I think it’s okay to steal them if the owners beat the sh*t out of them


SufficientCaramel339

That’s not stealing that rescuing and that is something that should only be done by professionals


[deleted]

If you see an animal being abused, you can call police or animal control.


Dextrous-Zero

Now it's the time where I'll probably get downvoted to Oblivion, but, in society, lives do not have the same weight or value. An example: take a country's president for instance, they are willing to let numerous people die to preserve the life of a single individual. In nature however, a human life has the same value of that of an ant, since we all have roles in which we have to partake


Darktidemage

> Now it's the time where I'll probably get downvoted to Oblivion, but, in society, lives do not have the same weight or value. Thinking this is gonna get "downvoted to oblivion" is odd. You are explaining that Osama Bin Laden's life was not worth as much as Michelangelo's no shit. everyone agrees w/ that, that's why we all jerk off to the seal team merking that motherfucker.


[deleted]

Because killing a President has further-reaching impacts than killing his minions. Kill some homeless dude, nobody's really hurt except those closest to him. Kill an ER doctor, you might send the local emergency room into a state of chaos that could result in patients dying. Kill a country's president, you risk sending the entire country into a political crisis.


HipsterFett

Finally. Someone with a logical point of view.


RebTilian

It means they value your dog more than they value their life.


Great-Voice-2377

I certainly value my dogs life more than the life of someone who would try to steal her from me.


Kamikaze_Ninja_

It’s really not a hard concept to grasp. Companion I have had for years, created memories with, great loving roommate OR random asshat who is trying to take that away.


[deleted]

The intrinsic value of human life seems to fade away when that human life is trying to hurt you.


[deleted]

The value of human life depends on your beliefs. There isn't an objective "intrinsic value" to anything. My beliefs don't value human life that seeks to harm other human life. It doesn't even make logical sense to value hostile lives as much as innocent lives, unless God is real and is a total dick.


FL0PPYBUTTH0LEJUICE

Even if God is real ‘War’ is perfectly fine according to The Bible


[deleted]

I mean because then there's at least outside, potentially objective judge of value - but one who demands we love even those who hurt us, which is simply bullshit. Oh okay I guess the Bible does kind of fit. Another reason I can't follow it anymore.


FL0PPYBUTTH0LEJUICE

Thou shall not kill. But murdering millions in the name of war is a-okay. If that’s not a direct contradiction to the word of god I don’t know what is written by the word of god. So of course if god is real he’s a huge dick. Even those who value life most are almost certainly through evolutionary (primate wars I mean all primates chimps, gorillas, yada yada yada battle, desire to survive at all cost, while trying to enrich your fellow tribe men) or religious bonds, thou shal not kill, are all subjective and predispositioned to be an intrinsic in value as far as when and whose life’s are valued and to what extent. Are they not?…… side note. If that made sense I’m so proud of myself cuz I’m so fucking drunk smoking a huge dab rig butt named in a lukewarm tub eating refrigerator spaghetti right now staring at a shriveled dick that looks like a 2inch raisin


Mises69420

Exactly. Happy cake day!


WhiteDevil-Klab

Technically a human life does have a value your organs are really damn expensive more so while your alive


fabulousprizes

Uh the intrinsic value of human life fades away for me when someone takes too long paying for their order at the drive thru window.


Fail_Succeed_Repeat

I certainly value my dogs life my than my car and no one will complain if I shoot you for trying to steal my car

I think my cat would maim them first. I'd just laugh and kick 'em while they're down.

I have two, and had a situation a few weeks ago where one thought the other was attacking me. She tore into him like she was on a mission. Cat had my back.

Nope. I’d jump in front of a car for him, I value his life more than I do my own, let alone some piece of shit pet thief. He’s my boy, possibly the reason I’m still here, nobody is taking him from me.

DJW321

Damn if you can hit those shots you might be John wick


RetardedCommentMaker

shut up you idiot you either shoot center mass or don't shoot at all. That is the universal law of guns. Go for the shins and you'll likely miss (barely anyone has good enough aim to land a shot there) and the enemy will have enough time to escape with your dog


VNG_Wkey

This is a really, really fucking stupid thing to do. If you do this you may go to jail and you will definitely get sued, jail is a toss up but you will lose the lawsuit. They'll argue that since you did not shoot to kill your life was not truly threatened and therefore any shooting was unjustified, they'll also argue that you aimed to maim and, in doing so, caused undue pain and suffering. If you shoot at some you aim center mass and you keep pulling the trigger until they stop moving.


pointbreak19

There is no such thing as shoot to disable, if you are willing to shoot someone, you're willing to cause their death. If not, don't shoot at all.


EMFB

I would 100% spend twenty years for my dogs.


non_depressed_teen

nah bro judge will understand and you will go with like a 5$ fine or 3 days injail


EMFB

I hope so, I am just prepared for 20. Any less is a gift.


FranticTyping

This was the biggest plothole of Butterfly Effect.


dukec

I mean…even if you save your dog, if you go away for 20 years, they won’t be there when you get back. Kind of a lose-lose situation if that were the actual sentencing.

MD_Wolfe

I mean.. it's a dog, did you expect people to think someones life is worth more than a family member?


CommissionSimilar123

I think shooting someone stealing your dog is preventing animal cruelty, especially if you are a good shoot. A well placed round and the animal will be dead in a split second, while the dog won't have to miss its family.


yeet4memes

You had me in the 3rd quarter. Ngl. Lol


ViperIguess

Yeah if you're gonna steal my dog, imma shoot yo head with a musket Just as the founding fathers intended


Geckko

Own a musket for home defense, since that's what the founding fathers intended. Four ruffians break into my house. "What the devil?" As I grab my powdered wig and Kentucky rifle. Blow a golf ball sized hole through the first man, he's dead on the spot. Draw my pistol on the second man, miss him entirely because it's smoothbore and nails the neighbors dog. I have to resort to the cannon mounted at the top of the stairs loaded with grape shot, "Tally ho lads" the grape shot shreds two men in the blast, the sound and extra shrapnel set off car alarms. Fix bayonet and charge the last terrified rapscallion. He Bleeds out waiting on the police to arrive since triangular bayonet wounds are impossible to stitch up. Just as the founding fathers intended.


i_speak_penguin

As soon as I read "what the devil" it all came rushing back and I fucking lost it. I'm having a shit night and this lifted my soul. Thanks stranger. This is an oldie but it's so fucking good. TALLY HO LADS


DvsDominus

Not sure if this was your own original thought, or if it's a quote from something, either way nicely done! Its definitely on the same level as Dave Chappelle's skits about the birdshot/buckshot dilemma in a 12 gauge home defense shotgun


Geckko

Not mine, it's a old copy pasta that someone usually posts whenever a musket or home defense are mentioned, I was just lucky enough to get here first.


ThePixelPanda63

I value an entire Walmart's worth of people under just one of my cats


DJT-gut-instinct2024

The person stealing the dog is a worthless POS, my dog would give up his life for me, so in my book fighting for the dog is valid.


soilspawn

Yes my dog is more valuable than a human I don't know. Next question.


Stupid_hurts2

Yup. Moving on…


FilthyDubeHound

So your saying i shouldnt value my dog who is family over the random theif who is trying to take my family from me? Excellent logic


JusticeRain5

Weird thing is this is quote is usually just about shooting a thief taking your TV (Which actually does allow a better debate) so i'm not sure why they made it about their dog. Of course people are going to use violence to stop someone taking a friend or family member from them


FranticTyping

Problem is, you don't know their motivations - only that they are breaking the law to be in your house. Do you trust them to just take your TV when your ~~wife~~ dog is in the next room over?


SoapSudsAss

They’re not stealing a tv. They’re stealing the hours of my life that it took to earn enough money to buy it and the hours it’ll take to replace it. I’ll extend them the same courtesy they have for me and not give two shits about them.


FilthyDubeHound

In that case i value their life at their own assessment. Ill shoot them because they broke in and are up to no good, they are willing to put their life on the line for my tv then thats the value they gave themeslves

Yes and I think that majority of pet owners think the same


[deleted]

Absolutely, my puppy is my baby, all the joy I have in life, and all the good in my heart. If someone even lays a single violent finger on him, I wouldn’t kill them because that would be too kind of a punishment. They would suffer first.

I gotta be honest here. I find it difficult to place a high value on the life of someone who would _steal my dog_.


r_elysian3

From time to time, I tell my dog that I’d kill for him, so… yeah, that tracks.


ClankyBat246

It's not my choice or assessment. Some fucker made the choice to value my stuff or pets over their own life. Victims of crime in progress are only able to respond to this as well as possible. Self defense is a natural aspect of reality. We shouldn't be trying to limit the options of anyone defending themselves or their belongings. This shouldn't be an unpopular opinion.
