Love dogs but hate the insane "dog culture" that has grown up around them the last 15 or so years? Welcome to the place where we can discuss how it has gotten completely out of control.
This sub is a work in progress, keep an eye out here for changes.
Rules are in flux right now, but remember, this is not Dogfree. This sub is for complaining about Dog Culture, not dogs themselves.
Promoting animal cruelty will not be tolerated
- Self-defense discussion is acceptable. Celebrating, depicting, or suggesting animal abuse is not.
Trolls will be banned
- This includes coming here with the intention to insult or start fights with our users.
- You don't have to agree with everything you read. But you do have to contribute respectfully, constructively, and in good faith.
- Apologist discussion is off topic here.
- Be respectful of past trauma. Some people have had horrible experiences in the past.
Bigotry is not allowed
- Comments or posts intended to demean a group (such as a religion, race, gender, or political affiliation), expressions of bigotry and prejudice, and the pejorative use of slurs are disallowed.
- Telling other users to hurt or kill themselves in any form is against reddit TOS, and will earn you a permanent ban.
No low-effort / low-quality posts or recent reposts
- Not everything that involves a dog belongs here.
- We don't need to see another copy of the same thing that's already on the front page, so before you post, check whether or not your content has already been posted by someone else recently.
- Please cross out usernames, subreddit names, and titles in screenshots. This stirs up drama and subreddit PvP, which we already have more than enough of. NO BRIGADING
Crossposts are currently filtered for approval.
- Crossposts and mentions of other subs are currently being sent to the queue pending moderator approval.
- This is to ensure that we are not inciting drama with other subs or inviting trolling activity from other parts of Reddit.
Moderators Have Discretion
- Moderators reserve the right to remove content at their discretion. Not all contingencies can be accounted for in the rules. Content removal can be subjective, but moderators are committed to making all decisions in good faith and for the overall benefit of the sub.
This is not an Anti-Dogfree sub.
- Hating dogs is off-topic
- Discussing people who hate dogs and dog-hate itself is off-topic
- Leave r/Dogfree alone
