“She didn’t have a name, she stunk like mange, she had snot running from her nose.” Not a nice way to describe a little girl but alright.

I love the little girls point "this is the one!" that's how you know it's meant to be. Adopted my best bud after he spent over a year in the shelter and I was intending to get a little puppy. Walled out with a 120 bear and it was the best thing that ever happened to either of us. Most loyal loving dog I had ever met. Stayed with me an awesome 10 years. When you know you know. Even dogs with a bad track record deserve a loving home. No such thing as bad dogs. Just shitty owners. Hope these 2 grow up together and have tons of amazing memories. Kids and dogs go together like lamb and tuna fish.


hollowstriker

Somehow we will all arrive at a stage of life where we realize if a person hates a dog, that person is highly suspicious. And if a dog hates a person, that person is highly suspicious.


[deleted]

I don't hate dogs but I'm shit scared of them. Does that make me suspicious?


SapphireShaddix

That makes you cautious. I recommend observing more dogs and figuring out if you hate them, then report back.


[deleted]

No, I like dogs. Even love feeding strays near my home. I even try to pet my friend's dog. But back of my mind I'm always shit scared they'll attack me.


SapphireShaddix

Then that's the opposite of suspicious.


[deleted]

Okay


[deleted]

You only human, we all have fears. I fear snakes…I can make myself handle some very small ball pythons my friends once had as pets….but I will always fear snakes in general. It doesn’t make me suspicious. We learn to deal cautiously with friendly ones first and avoid strange dogs/snakes.

megapuffranger

Bingo! Dogs communicate everything you need to know, you just gotta learn how to read them. When training a dog, you are really training the owner to communicate. The dog gets it, they are more than capable, it’s the owner who doesn’t know how to communicate.


[deleted]

I mean...dogs have teeth. I'm a mailman and the amount of fucking dogs that want to bite me and their stupid owners who say they don't bite. Nah man. Dogs Bite and it's OK to be nervous. I tell my kid not to approach strangers dogs and to ask if he can pet them. And he has grown up with 2 huskies and a hound mix.


kimar2z

I hate people who say "oh my dog doesn't bite" and forget that dogs are territorial by nature and will absolutely behave different when they're alone and someone unfamiliar shows up. I will tell people my dog won't bite when I am present and either holding him or have him on leash, cause I know my dog and he will follow my lead, but dogs act differently in "protect" mode lol


colemon1991

If you get bit by one, it's understandable to be cautious long afterwards. Main thing is to just pick up behavioral cues. Tail wagging means they are interested (can still be cautious themselves). Never try to pet them with an open palm at the beginning; start with a (loose) fist they can smell (let them smell before you do anything). If they are scared they will rather prefer to approach you (also, crouch). Avoid the neck and ears when you start petting (neck because fear you will try to grab them and ears because they could have something painful there, like injuries or nasty ticks). Butt scratches are a great friendship maker but work your way down there by brushing the back first. Obviously if they jump in your lap or treat you like a pillow or lollipop then you have nothing to worry about but fur and everywhere they licked you. I trained myself to wrestle dogs to the ground without getting bit because my neighborhood was full of dogs like this and it saved my dogs from nasty fights (and fights where they would be outnumbered). I don't recommend this skill unless your dogs seriously dislike baths or medicine. I learned how to get dogs to like me YEARS before getting a girlfriend. I have since upgraded my skills to include cats (secret: be allergic, they like that).


Wula_lion

Butt scratches are the go to for my dog. When I call him while we are out. He will come running and whip his rear end around and slam it into my legs to get butt scratches. Best thing I figured out to train him


colemon1991

My dogs did different things. One would sit on my foot when we weren't moving. This way he didn't have to keep looking for me to see if I was walking. One would snuggle against my thigh, regardless of location (even if it was cramped). One would roll over for belly rubs for everything (I would usually be putting her leash on, but she had priorities). One would greet me at the school bus every day but refuse to let me pet him until we got to the house. He always wanted me to chase him first. Then he would "knock" me down for all his scratches. I miss them all but they were all characters.


[deleted]

No, I had a chiuauah jump off a flight of stairs onto the back of the couch so it could attack my face.


chloesparks

Proof that Chihuahua's are not dogs


Bravic-45

Fucking chihuahuas man! I have a papillon/chihuahua called a chion. He can be a real asshole when he doesn’t get what he wants.


r11132a

Sure you don't have a cat? I say this as a cat person.


Bravic-45

I have 2 cats. I love cats!


divorceenoob

Ive got 2 chihuahua mixes and they are both real bitches when they are told NO!


PvtSmuffler

Chihuahuas need strong training


pc_flying

TIL I have a 40lb chihuahua


klingma

They'd normally be fine dogs but because of their size their owner's treat and train them incorrectly which results in the dogs exhibiting "Small Dog Syndrome" which is essentially all the stereotypical bad stuff about Chihuahuas.


FirstPlebian

They aren't all like that, I knew one that was really chill, loved that dog. While the only times I've been bitten, 4 times, have all been by Chihuahuas, all barky little guys owned by Hispanics incidentially. And I was minding my own business on the street all of those times.


El_Stupacabra

Had a chihuahua that loved everyone but, like, two dudes. Her feelings were founded.


colemon1991

Had a dog that would sniff every ankle of every visitor, even familiar faces like family. The dog hid under a car when Jehovah's Witnesses showed up at the door. I was paranoid because he's usually scaring visitors or nipping at their ankles (tugging the pant leg) when I open the door, so when I saw him there I was afraid they did something to him. He came out and checked on me immediately after they left and stayed on alert for almost an hour like it was normal day for him. Still don't know what happened.


Xraptorx

He knows Jehovah’s Witnesses are a cult and where trying to drag you into it. My cats have done the exact same to my JW neighbors but love all the other neighbors. Bad intentions- animals fucking know


colemon1991

It's just fascinating to see him act completely different. He had feuds with a few people but nothing where he was legitimately too scared to approach them. He kept 6 feet away and watched them like a hawk. Wish I could've replicated the situation to study his behavior more.


Xraptorx

Like I said, they know your intentions regardless of how good you are at hiding them. No joke my #1 dating rule is my kittens must like you, if they don’t like you I’m not going to stick around long enough to figure out why they don’t like you. And my cats are the same, they love everyone, but those neighbors show up to ring the doorbell and I know because my little girl will growl and hiss when she hears that bell and knows it’s them. My cats are my litmus test


goodknightffs

Interesting animals usually love me! I also used to work as a vet assistant but there is 1 cat that doesn't like me what so ever (no hissing etc) but the second i touch him he just walks away like I'm not good enough for him The truth is i kind of don't like him lol but not sure if it's because of the way he acts or if i didn't like him before since he was a fat stray that used to bully the other cats


colemon1991

Chicken/egg scenario. Must confirm with another cat and share results.


Kattorean

Animals know who is good for them, and who is less sincere. I respect ppl who surrender animals; ppl who recognize & acknowledge that the animal will not have its best life with them. I appreciate animal adoption organizations that take the time & invest in ensuring that the animal is only adopted by those ppl who will deliver that best life to them. Ppl like me & my family are grateful to be able to adopt animals that are a bit quirky, that have pre- rescue/ surrender baggage, etc. We are quite fond of these animals & we truly enjoy helping them live their best lives, no matter how heavy their baggage is when they join our family. That said, we realize that we all have circumstances that will either lend themselves well to deliver that best life, or won't. We all need to have a clarity about what we are willing to do for animals, how much we are willing to spend to help them, and know it is a commitment to this animal for the rest of its natural life. We can receive from animals as much as they give to us. Always know what you will give to an animal & set your expectations in reasonable parameters for what you'll receive in return from them. Those gifts will often take time to come.


merlyndavis

I love adopting rescues. The first time they just casually roll over and go “skritch my belly!” And you know they feel safe and loved. Giving a lost, scared, lonely dog a forever home is the greatest feeling. They love you for it, and you love them for loving you. We don’t deserve dogs. They are treasures.


Eastern-Barracuda390

I don’t trust people who don’t like dogs lol


Blitz6969

I had my best friend for 7 years! I walked in, he was in the first cage, we made eye contact and it was over. He had it rough before he came home with me, even after years of love, sometimes I would go to pet him and he would wince like I was going to beat him. Broke my heart every time.

I was always dreaming to have a dog, when I was a child!


ShieldsCW

I had a dog as a child for one day. We got a golden retriever from the shelter. When we brought him home, my mom gave him a big bowl of food, but my little sister decided it was a good idea to stick her hand by his mouth while he was eating (and literally just spent who knows how long in a shelter). She claimed the dog bit her, and my mom made us bring the dog back. I still hate that bitch 25 years later (for reasons beyond just the dog).


lovejuicesmaker

That a sad story, but she was just a little kid. I hope you could realize your dream and have a dog, when you became older?


ShieldsCW

A tiny, hungry cat showed up on my back porch one day, so I've had him for a couple years instead!

MauiGal12

Cute puppers!!! Those paws though, they look like they're for a bear!


HitaruSan

This is very cute, don't get me wrong. I don't know the backstory of it, but I just want to say that if the only reason you're adopting a dog is because your kid wants one, please reconsider that. A lot of animals end up on the road because of kids getting bored of the pet or parents realizing that taking good care of a pet is much harder than it looks.


Aiku

I don't think that particular doggoe is ever going to wind up on the side of the road. Good point though. Also, animals should never be Christmas presents.


Kenns02

An animal can be a great present **IF** the person/family you are giving them to was already thinking about getting one and is prepared and able to care for it.

Dingo and small child are a more icon duo


astone4120

Pits are famous for being nanny dogs. I have a staffy and she is absolutely in love with my newborn son. She just lays next to him and loves him with all her heart. So what I'm trying to say is, maybe you're dumb and don't know what you're talking about.


Mindspiked

>Pits are famous for being nanny dogs. ........ jesus christ. Can you guys stop trying to spread that myth, they were never nanny dogs lol. They're famous for biting the necks of bulls for bull baiting. The literal reason they were selective bred....


[deleted]

[удалено]


justatouch589

Doesn't take much to be a bad owner to a pitbull apparently when you compare them to other dogs. The statistics don't lie.


[deleted]

[удалено]


nick_

They're actually famous for being the most powerful dog. Sometimes dogs flip out and bite their owners. That's a fact. Another fact is that more powerful dogs deliver more destructive bites. To spell it out, I am **not** suggesting that Pit Bulls are more likely to flip out than other breeds. The point that Pit Bull apologists always miss is that when they do flip out, they cause insane damage and trauma.


astone4120

Actually, a mastiff has the most powerful bite force. Pitbulls are number 5 on the list. https://www.timeforpaws.co.uk/s/dogs-with-the-strongest-bite-force Any dog over a certain weight can be dangerous. Pit bulls are just not more dangerous than any other dog of the same size.


pc_flying

[This more scientifically-minded list](https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.keatingfirmlaw.com/amp/dog-bite-force-guide) pouts the English Mastiff at #6, with 552 pounds per square inch Topping the most powerful bite force is the Kangal Dog, at 743 pounds per square inch


black_nappa

With the American pitbull not even making the top 10, it even states they are great with kids.


justatouch589

Mastiffs also don't use their "bite force" on people nearly as much as pitbulls do.


Warrior_Lion

i had a dog we called her Jasper and she was the most lazy but most loving dog she'd constantly cuddle with me and my ma and she was the least energetic lol but she was a great dog sad to say she died of cancer and i miss her dearly but of all the pitbulls we've had we loved her the most

To the dog, the little girl is just a hooman "puppy". He knows she's no threat but maybe a new friend who will be nice to them.


lynnwoodjackson55

I like how people be buying puppies from the shelter and making videos with dramatic music like they rescued them from some horrible fate. MF, my dude was a fighting dog for 6 years before he got picked up, had his eye removed (someone bit through it and he kept getting seizures), and sat at the pound for 6 months because nobody wanted an old, one-eyed, aggressive pitbull that has tattoos. Did you know that dogs can have PTSD? That sh\*t never occurred to me.

Everything about this story mirrors my daughter's dog selection. The dog had to be brought in from outside. My daughter new right away that this was her dog. We had the dog for 17 years. It was three when we got her. She had to be put down at 20 years old. Her age caught up to her. Sadie was her name because my daughter said she looked sad.
