A lot of dog hate here on the board today.

Some dogs are fine. It's "dog people" that are the worst

Yes, I know the type, and agree.

Sounds like some people and their guns.

How did you teach her to ring the bell?

Slim

The bell hangs on a rope from the rear doorknob. When we first got her, we'd take her to the back door, ring the bell

When my dog wants to go out he just stands at the door looking stupid waiting for someone to notice

My son taught our dog Irish

I never wanted a dog, but relented...

Same. Avidly anti-dogite. Got a dog for #reasons and we love our golden doodle.

Ours is just some small terrier mutt we found at the shelter.

I’m a dog person as well but I totally understand the dog hate on the board

I'm with you there. A lot of dog people are idiots. The comfort pet thing is stupid.

Here's a sticker you place next to that bumper sticker when you see them.

Wow, I'm buying some of these.

I'm gonna buy some of those...

I saw a bumpersticker that said I heart my grandogs. Yes, grandogs...

For me, dogs (and pets in general) are in the same category as guns

Doctor Rosenrosen

I like dogs, but I never feel clean in a house that has dogs. I could not stand

Chester Copperpot

There are breeds that don't shed

How do you stop the dingleberries, humping and urine?

JAGA97

9/25/19 12:54pm

That gif looks just like my dog but I haven't seen any dingleberries, dog humping, or urine inside in years.

My dog discovered squirrels at my inlaws last week, have barely seen him since. Always out back looking.

You haven't but guests at your house definitely have

We don't have any of those problems with ours...

CoachSpeak

Maybe I'm a germ freak and I just don't know it.

JAGA97

Never thought of that but thanks for making me aware 😬

Are you talking about me now, or still referring to my dog?

m0resn0w

9/25/19 1:48pm

Keep telling yourself that.

Chester Copperpot

9/25/19 12:56pm

Ha! Technically, you're correct. But you know what else sheds?

m0resn0w

We have a black labrador...

I hope you’ve been married about 40 years. Otherwise, you’re burning through

The Dude Abides

I've been married for 27 1/2 years...

CoachSpeak

9/25/19 1:28pm

Sorry to hear about the first two. That’s rough.

The Dude Abides

9/25/19 1:30pm

Thanks, you really do get attached to them when you spend time with them...

CoachSpeak

9/25/19 1:33pm

Your dog loves you unconditionally and that has value...

CoachSpeak

9/25/19 1:11pm

So, it's kinda like having another wife? This is how polygamy started.

John Doe

9/25/19 1:14pm

Hmm, I'm sorry my description of a dog reminded you of your wife.

jdub

9/25/19 1:17pm

You said it: likes to run errands, goes backpacking with you, is smart, is teachable and teaches others,

Your dog looks good

You can't have the dog, but you're welcome to have the cat.

We've had one dog for 15 yrs and the other for 8. The old one is getting to be a real pain but I'm sure

Dogs are cool and all, but cats are much easier to dress up in fancy costumes.

You get Blue Jays? You're in Utah, right? I've never seen a Blue Jay in Utah,

flavordave

Maybe stellar's jay or scrub jay, which are both blue and common in Utah.

I grew up birding with my dad. I know a couple things.

It might be a stellar's jay, but it definitely is blue. I'll try to get a photo. It's around here all the time.
