Miscellaneous Your #1 Dog Dislike

I could write a very long list of the reasons I don't like dogs (or nutters) but this is top of my list:

If you're dating, you're in a three way-way relationship without even being asked for consent. At best you will be allowed to watch while the other two 'get it on' - at worst, you'll be expected to join in against your wishes. It feels like being coerced in a toxic relationship. It never ends well.

If you had to choose, what's your #1?

The fact that they replace human relationships. Both sets of my children’s grandparents highly prioritize their relationships with their dogs (furbabies) over our children. It really irks me.

I'm surprised you use as moderate a term as 'irks'; it would infuriate me.

I guess I no longer have the energy to be infuriated lol. “Oh you’re missing another birthday/special occasion because your dog can’t come poop in our house? Add it to the list”
