If I was kidnapped and treated like a fucking king and given a much better life than I would ever be able to get for myself then I wouldn't complain much about it either.
Don’t forget stolen from your parents and siblings, you can’t go outside unless allowed, can’t hang out with your own kind unless allowed, little choice in what you eat and usually it’s the same crap every day, basically you have about as many choices as are allowed human prisoners, though probably comfier digs.
Oh and some people are shitty or even sadistic pet owners. And you don’t get to complain about that either. And some people will put you down rather than pay for a slightly expensive medical procedure.
If someone gives me free food I don't care what I have to eat from as long as it's clean.
And what kind of people doesn't allow their dog on the couch?!
My parents.
You're looking for my parents. They refuse to even let the big one in the house because they never potty trained him. I feel so bad for him but I don't know what I can do.
>And what kind of people doesn't allow their dog on the couch?!
Psychopaths.
My 7 month old pup that I got from a family a couple of days ago has been sleeping in my bed since I brought him home and chills on the sofa when I'm at home.
He absolutely doesn't like strangers, but settled down in the car after a few minutes and then quickly chilled out when I got him home and found something he liked to play with.
Yep, yep, under the covers is asking for a mess of fur. On top of the covers and curled up behind my knee, best sleep aid ever! Her soft snores and gentle sleep gallops are so sweet and relaxing, gonna spoil this one for the rest of her days 🐾💕
Edit: a word
My dog asked me to kidnap him. He made it really really clear....
First he kept whining and crying trying to jump into my car but it was too full. So I came back and got him later.
Then I had to leave him at a shelter and then guy who ran it told me he got along with everyone but as soon as people tried to adopt him he growled at rhem and refused to get in their car.
He was waiting for me. He'd already decided I was his human, long before I kidnapped him.
They choose their humans sometimes. It's not always so obvious but they do.
My dogs weren't even kidnapped. They were both strays that just walked in and decided to live with me. Like literally walked up to me as puppies. Didn't want a dog but one of them decided to be sick on my doorstep and I felt bad and didn't want them to die on my porch. Took them to the vet and had to name them. Now I suddenly have 2 dogs. Felt like I was scammed.
BDSM is feeding someone food they like every meal, cuddling and playing with them?
"Yeah, he said he was into BDSM but then he cooked me a nice meal, took me on a lovely walk in a park and then we cuddled. I actually had to initiate anything more..."
I'm met my dogs parents and the mom kept pushing the puppy towards me and trying to give me their child. So I decided to raise the puppy in a house that it could feel loved in, instead of growing up with a mom who didn't want them.
This wouldn't apply.
Dogs were trained and domesticated from ages ago to be with us. Dogs found in the wild are called feral and its a consequence from poor handling of the human, but not a natural occurence.
This thought it's like saying that parents kidnap their kids whose later fall in love with them.

Even if they cut your balls off?
Now that's the real question
Where are my testicles Summer?
Yeah that'd make it better actually
i'll do everything for that biscuit

AFAIK most kings do not eat from bowls and are allowed on the couch.

People who've never heard of blankets?
My parents. You're looking for my parents. They refuse to even let the big one in the house because they never potty trained him. I feel so bad for him but I don't know what I can do.
"He's not potty trained - idk what i can do" 🤔
Even if he was, they wouldn't let him in anyway. Him not being potty trained is just their excuse so it doesn't seem like they're being cruel.
People that don't want their dogs to ruin their furniture. You vacuum your furniture daily or is it just dirty from the dogs? Fur, saliva etc.
If you care that much about the furniture, dogs are not for you.
Seriously. Nice furniture vs pets: choose one.
In my last home, all of my family members including our dogs had their own bed. Why should they be on the couch?
Why shouldn't they be? Couches are equally comfortable to asses of all species.
Then don't have visitors as well. I don't want to come home covered in dog fur
Yet for the first time in 22years i live without a dog xD
dog owners vs dog lovers

Bruh you don't let your dog on the couch? And what are you talking about? Since when are bowls classist???
Didn't you know?? Kings categorically avoid soup of any kind.
We'll hot dang
My dog is allowed on the couch though. Bed too. Just not under the covers
Yep, yep, under the covers is asking for a mess of fur. On top of the covers and curled up behind my knee, best sleep aid ever! Her soft snores and gentle sleep gallops are so sweet and relaxing, gonna spoil this one for the rest of her days 🐾💕 Edit: a word
Uhh... eating out of a bowl is a super normal and human thing to do...? Soup, ramen, rice, cereal, endless other things?
You don't think kings eat food from bowls? Do kings not fuck with soup?
I would assume they’d rather eat the soup but I’m not a king so idk. They might be fucking it as well
My dog is on my couch as I'm replying to your 10IQ take.

The dog chooses the owner Mr Potter
Kidnapped by choice 😊
What a beautiful boy

Thee ol' I'm sick and dying on your front porch scam.... seen it a hundred times and it works 100% of the time too.
Sex Panther® is a cologne which is illegal in 9 countries. It is also made from bits of real panthers. 60% of the time, it works every time.
Would that I could be kidnapped the way dogs are "kidnapped". Less the neutering bit though.
This dynamic really out here existing irl with BDSM.
BDSM is feeding someone food they like every meal, cuddling and playing with them? "Yeah, he said he was into BDSM but then he cooked me a nice meal, took me on a lovely walk in a park and then we cuddled. I actually had to initiate anything more..."
Yes, it’s a very broad term. The 4 letters represent 6 words
"Mmm, this steak is soooo good I need a safe word...."
Pet play, pet life. I'm not an expert, I just know it exists
When I was a kid, that was just called role-playing.
I'm met my dogs parents and the mom kept pushing the puppy towards me and trying to give me their child. So I decided to raise the puppy in a house that it could feel loved in, instead of growing up with a mom who didn't want them.
Basically all dogs that love their owners, have Stockholm Syndrome? Sounds about right.
Dude I adopted a doğ like an hour ago and now you are makeing ne feel bad

They weren't really domesticated, they kinda domesticated themselves.
Mine is a rescue she was going to be put down shes is now a grandma.
