dogs get away with too much
Okay don't shoot me, I'm no dog hater or anything. I wouldn't say I'm a dog person, but to be honest, I'm more annoyed by dog owners than the dogs themselves. The biggest issue I have with dogs themselves is when they bark at or even chase me when I run through my neighborhood. Because of this I had to start running at the ass crack of dawn so I wouldn't run into anyone walking a dog lol.
Dog owners however, are simply the worst. Some, anyway. Their arrogance and entitlement is completely unmatched among pet owners.
And one thing that particularly annoys me about dog culture is the phrase "no bad dogs, only bad owners" when a dog does something objectively bad, like attack someone. In my mind, if we say this about dogs, then we should say it about all pets, but we don't. This grace is pretty much exclusively granted towards dogs when they behave badly. For example, a cat can hiss at someone or resist being touched or picked up and people say stuff like "This is why I hate cats" or even "Cats are bitches" but a dog can maul someone to death and suddenly it's "no bad dogs, just bad owners"
I don't know, I'm certainly no animal expert. But it seems very silly to believe that a dog is inherently incapable of being "bad" or doing wrong just because it's a dog.
Not to mention, a lot of people who love dogs hate children and even say they would rather share spaces like grocery stores and restaurants with dogs rather than children because children are "loud and annoying" as if dogs aren't lol. Not to mention sniffing, licking, sometimes urinating on things in public. Children are humans and dogs are not and yet dogs are held to a higher regard.
Anyway, I did not mean for this to be this long lol so sorry about that but thanks for reading if you read the whole thing lol.
TLDR: dogs get away with so much shit that other animals and children are criticized for, which is irritating to me lol
