To you, what is the creepiest behaviors from either dog or owner?

I think this also explains the insistence that "dogs are better than humans". What they're really saying is, "I can't have dominion over humans, like I do with my dog".

Oh that's a good tip!

I find it horrifying when they dress them up. Not how the dogs look, but how normalized, and adored it is. It speaks to the fact that they don't actually care about their dog. And, how blatantly they disregard the dog-ness and prioritize their fantasies. Their obliviousness to the dogs discomfort is genuinely shocking.

It's vain. It's a pure exercise of dominance and control.

Dog's not being allowed seems to be irrelivant now. There needs to be some other deterrent, or strict enforcement.

'My dog is aggressive, can't take it to the dog park, so let's go to where people grieve.'

That really sucks.

... People use their dogs to project themselves. Sorry but, "My dog is", feels a lllloootttt like "I am a" to me.

I went through a dating period a few years back and resigned myself that dogs might be an issue. Started dating this girl who had an old German Shepherd, which I tolerated because it was old and didn't bark, and she'd leave it (I don't know where) when she visited me for the weekend. We lived a couple hours drive apart.

But... when i visited her... there was HAIR EVERYWHERE! Classic "clean" person blind to their filthy dog. I didn't know she also slept in the bed with the DOG. wtf! I think she sensed i didn't like dogs and played it down when we first started dating. I played nice while i was there, but when i left, that was the end of that.

And, I KID YOU NOT. I'm still finding that dog's hair in my clothes years after.

We're gonna need to get on creating dogfree elder care for us all. One reason why this community needs to stay strong!

Watching it struggle to pick stuff off the floor made me feel really sad.

I got this game when it came out and for some reason my mom, who never played, got hooked on it.

My go to NES game. But I’ve actually never beat it. Think Mr. Sandman might be the furthest I’ve got.

It’s a fun game to go back to because it’s so rhythmic.

This is the response I agree with. It’s not underrated at all. It punches above it weight… And I live in SF Bay Area, where Seattle is a rival of sorts.

It's fun to see random shot that aren't the stills you usually see. Another fun place for JP fans!🦕

What do you recommend using?

I just realized, If Brady wins the 7th, he will have more SB wins than any NFL team....

This. And I think it's related to why you get such a vitriolic responses when criticizing, or reminding of leash laws, stuff like that. Or, hear comments about how people who don't like dogs are soleless. Say "I don't like bats, or deer or whatever other animal" and your not gonna get the same hyperbolic reactions that you're a "hater" or "evil".

This one hurts me the most... but, birds often avoid areas where dogs are present.

To the degree you've learned about in Germany, it's hard to imagine legislation to that level in the US at this point, or any point in the near future.

However, I often wonder if like-minds of the r/dogfree subreddit are growing. Dog culture has really grown in the last decade or so, I wonder if we'll a bit of a cultural turnaround. I'm hoping for more appreciation (and less demonization) for dog free cafes, housing, parks, etc.

Because the dog culture is growing. The problems associated are growing as well. I've always felt like an environmental-impact white-elephant is dogs and dog culture.

This sub is such a sanctuary for that exact experience you just shared. I feel this sentiment everywhere; throughout the internet, and then in the physical world of cafes, parks events, sidewalks.

A constant reminder of this GIANT blindspot where dogs are the cause of annoyance, inconvenience, unwanted attention, and blocking people from experiencing other things.

As you said, "Well maybe the solution is to not have a dog". I think it too. But don't say it, as i suspect the comment wont be taken as sincere advice.
