Stop making out with your...

...dog.

Nothing is grosser than watching an adult (or child) let their dog lick their face/mouth. Don’t even get me started on feet or scabs. Do you know where their mouth and nose is for at least an hour a day? And don’t give me this ‘their saliva has healing properties’ crap. If it did they’d bottle it. You’ll never see Polysporin or Ozonol marketed as ‘effective as a dog’s spit’.

Stop it already. I think less of you, and so does everyone else. You are, in essence, doing what Divine did at the end of Pink Flamingos and that’s disgusting.

My dog says you're too dumb to lick. He doesn't speak English, though. Only Cantonese.

But it's an amazing bonding moment for me and my dog! It's not like we can talk about our feelings so we must express our platonic love in a way that's understandable to us

Jokes on you because I'm a Cat lover.

Never understood animal love. Never will. Dogs are just as expendable as cattle. You think one can be slaughtered and the other needs to be protected as if it was a small child? **** you. Dogs are not equal to my fellow man. Stop acting like they are.

Dogs >>>>>> People>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Jussie Smollett>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>cats

ban this guy

Cattle wouldn't protect you if someone broke into your home. Dogs can also be trained to help with many useful tasks. Bomb and drug sniffing dogs, police K9 dogs and seeing eye dogs spring to mind rather quickly. Ask a military person how many lives those dogs help save. I see a big difference between the two.

So you dig plenty of small graves?

As in matter of fact, when my first Cat passed away 2 years ago, I actually dug a grave for him in the middle of my backyard. I had to shovel very deep so the body can decompose through the soil.

It was very sad day for me :(

I hear if a dog licks you once then you have canine cooties for life... lol, get over yourself OP.

@ezekiel43:

You say that as if humans aren't equally as expendable.

You may not like that I said that, but no government really cares about the people these days.

I made out with all of my animals. I just love them so much!

Legalize Bestially

I don't like pets. Never will I ever own one.

I don't. Training them to protect and instilling them with Stockholm syndrome through generations of leashing and discipline doesn't make them your kin. They were first domesticated as tools. That's their purpose. Dog lovers should all become vegetarians or call themselves hypocrites.

Well, you're not expendable to me. I don't want to eat you.

Wait, what? Dogs helped us hunt and bring down game and for that we should be vegetarians? That's some distorted logic you have there.

Agreed. Stop making out with your fur babies.

I LOL'd. Nice.

Yup.

I feel like if I got a dog, I'd be like "Screw this, I'm 70% of the way there, I'm just going to adopt a child". The amount of care, effort, and money needed to properly raise and own a dog is ridiculous to me.

That's not to say I dislike dogs, quite the opposite I love them very much. I just love other people's dogs.

That's pretty extreme. I mean, I get where you are coming from: I find the whole "dog=human" as far as worth goes a bit extreme.

But the day a cow can play fetch, act as a companion, and show the general intelligence of a dog is the day I will say "cow=dog".

Humans are waaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyy up top, then dogs are somewhere down below. And somewhere near the bottom are cows.

You never gave the cow a chance.

There are also plenty of videos showing cattle's intelligence. Their brains are bigger than dogs'. You don't pay attention to cows, so you say all this BS. I have more sympathy for them than dogs, since I partake of them so much, but I also accept that they're part of the food chain. Most dogs are useless and most of their owners are delusional for wasting thousands of dollars in medical bills, care and food out of some false sense of kinship. It's fucked up, honestly. I'm gonna own you because I want company. I can understand owning a dog to protect your livestock or to help you hunt or to find drugs. Treating them as children instead of tools is stupid. The other day at work, I watched a news clip of a child having their hand bitten off by a dog they wanted to pet. Of course, someone near me defended the dog. It's sick.

Got a cat, she only sees me as a source of food and treats. Although she likes to bring me 'gifts' embedded in her fur like sticks, leaves, and mud. She really likes to leave them on my bed for me to find when i wake up.. Ugh.. :)

Because you know most dogs, and their owners.

Look, there's a hell of a lot to bitch and moan about in this world, but this...

...get the stick out of your ass, mmkay?

A lot of high and mighty humans in this thread I see. Don't act like we aren't domesticated animals ourselves, and don't kid yourself that you haven't you haven't shook hands with another person at some point who didn't wash their hands after they touched themselves downstairs or took a dump.

Ugh. From my observations in public bathrooms, that would seem to be the majority of people.

@br0kenrabbit: I know right? Crazy, it only takes a minute to wash them. ?

Better than waking up to your cat swishing its tail on your face and noticing the strong smell of cat s**t.

Dogs usually lick your face with their tongue while cats rub their behinds on your face.

My mom used to literally have a moat (pan of water) in front of her bedroom door to prevent the cats from scratching on it all night because they wanted in.

Plus, they have those loud mournful meows.

Yup. I've baby-sitted pets before for people who went on vacation. Most of the time, that involved spending a couple of weeks at their house. I got to notice scratched floors (dogs), scratched furniture and doors (cats).....

I thought TC was going to use the word "Pillow" :O

“If it did they’d bottle it”.

I don’t know why, but for some reason this particular line had me laughing my ass off.

I never let my dogs do that, but they can lick other people, I'm not jealous :).

I like dogs, but not having been a dog owner for a long time if I pet a dog or get licked I'll wash my hands right after. That's more from becoming a hand-washing hypochondriac now that I have kids and I see how gross they are with what they'll touch. I've become far more acutely aware of my own hand sanitation, to the point that I have to frequently moisturize now. I don't generally let a dog lick my face, but if an enthusiastic pup sneaks one in it doesn't gross me out or anything.

I don't let my dog lick my mouth. I love her but it's just too far for me. Lol. Especially when she shares the same bowls with the cat sometimes.

Got to love the internet.

Hmm yeah I know what you mean actually... I also wash my hands immediately if I come into contact with a kid. Kidding. xD

Nah, I agree with what you're saying. Of course dogs licking your face isn't the most hygenic thing, and I'd wash my hands or face if they did so after I finished playing with them. It's just the people who act like dogs and cats are plague carriers or something, like 'eww... you let them jump up on your furniture/bed?!' Yeah, so what. My dog has regular baths and is well groomed. Why even get a pet if you're going to treat him or her like a second class citizen! Sorry, rant mode over lol.

Anyway, being a hand-washing hypochondriac now that you've got kiddos isn't exactly a bad thing, at least I know I can trust your handshakes. ?

I laughed, awesome haha.
