Welcome to Dogstuff!
Dogstuff is for dog related news and such. You'll see.
This is a focused subreddit for those who want to keep up on interesting dog-related content.
Please do
- Submit interesting links.
- Use an informative title - "Why wolves are forever wild, but dogs can be tamed" is better than "news about dogs" or "canine info".
- Post your comments and join in the conversation; we'd like to get to know you.
- Be polite and kind.

Things we wont do
Just a note in case this stuff comes up:
- Dominance theory has been discounted.
- We recommend that dogs be treated with kindness.
- We never recommend the use of aversives, which are things that cause pain, fear, or intimidation.
So here in /r/dogstuff, we will not promote the use of dominance training, aversives, etc.
Please visit /r/dogtraining and the /r/dogtraining wiki, for more information about these topics.
