In the past, people had dogs to protect the farm. Today, what is the reason to have dogs? Dogs are dirty, smelly, annoying, dependent, noisy, dangerous (even more in a herd). I know some people have dogs to protect the house from robbery but I see people with dogs in the urban area, in the city where people live in apartments. Why? What is the benefit?


Just so you know, I was bitten by a fkn dog last week. Fortunately, the fkn dog was old and it only made me a scratch. Any how, I don't understand how people have dogs eventhough they need a lot of time to take care of them. Why not a cat (my mom has one) that is totally independent?


Dogs are fkn dangerous. I can't stand them, really, but I guess they are there because people want them. Fk people, then.

Companionship, entertainment, habit.

Well, as I said, why not a cat? Cats are more civilized than dogs, they don't crap all over and shower themselves licking their fur. You don't need to walk them because they're independent. And most importantly, cats don't go around barking at people, let alone biting them.

I don't kill animals, Wylted, let alone puppies. I can consider euthanasia for an animal but it should be justified.

Remember that a dog is an animal, not a human being like you.

I wouldn't say they're 'more civilized,

But they do 'tend to be quieter, less needy.

Though some cats are needy, wanting to be petted or played with.

Some cats scratch up furniture, drapes, and hands. Poop and pee places they're not supposed to.

. . . Course 'most people I'd hope, housetrain their pets.

Dogs can be trained too.


Dogs lick themselves too, and some cats get litter stuck to their tails in older ages.


I 'do think dogs usually require more attention and effort.

. . . It's also 'harder to take a cat on a walk with you, than a dog.

Comforting to have a deco- er I mean 'companion when hiking a trail with possible mountain lions. Or human strangers, many walk locations.


I'd imagine 'some dogs can be pretty quiet, people who carry little dogs around like purses.

Remember that you are an animal too, who is 73% the same as a dog.


So Dogs lick their balls and arses and you scratch yours.

Dogs need attention, they're attention whores.


Cats are different, they don't seek attention, they don't bother you moving the tail and asking for petting.

Of course, Victor, we're animals, but in a higher position.


You don't treat insects the same way you treat dogs, because dogs are in a higher position of conciousness.


That's why some aliens treat humans as crap. Lol.

Joke all you want about a dog's purpose, but until you have watched a dog in performance of saving a person's life [I have]... well, let's just say a person coming to the aid of another in danger is expected, but when a dog is sufficiently heroic, putting itself in potential danger when self-preservation is a keen survival sense, to save a person's life, your appreciation for the species grows in admiration of their devotion.

Man's best friend, indeed. Maybe not all dogs, but then, not every person has that kind of loyalty, either.

Don’t blame the dog if the man is not a reliable friend.

Absolutely. My fond regards to three dogs in my life:

Perry: a Chow, childhood dog who was struck and killed by a car

Nestle [White Cocoa]: a cocker spaniel, our first dog as a new married couple, and who died of a stroke we both watched occur at home at 12 years of age.

Che: a Mastiff/Lab mix, our daughter's dog who we raised as a pup from her friend and grew so large, he could rest his muzzle on our kitchen counter. our daughter gave him back to her friend when we moved from CA.

Sure, dogs are loyal but only to their owners.


What about the other people? Dogs' loyalty is pure interest, they need someone to feed them after all.


As to the rest of us, dogs don't give a fk, they bite you if they feel you're a threat.


And yes, I never liked dogs. I don't hate them but I don't like them at all.

I'd imagine dogs might give some people more a sense of purpose, feel as though their dog 'really 'needs them, likes them.

Though I've seen some pretty friendly and needy cats before.


Dogs also seem to me more likely to obey commands, do tricks.

A cat, I think would be less likely to run home and get help if you broke your leg hiking.

Less likely to fetch something that you point at and say fetch or grab that.


My family had a dog, Jack, that knew how to fetch his leash when we said we were going to go for a walk.

Very endearing.

. . .


Course, pets are often limited to what you 'do teach them.

I've seen videos before, where someone commits burglary on a house, and the guard dog is just wagging his tail friendly as the burglar talks to the dog friendly.

. . Depends though, I'd 'imagine some other dogs 'would have bitten or barked.

And even nicer dogs, can be enough to ward some people, I'd imagine.

Hard to train a dog to be friendly and nasty too.

There are things a dog does that you can't stop from doing, like for example that a dog licks their ass.


I even heard from a friend that there are dogs that eat their own crap or other dogs' crap. I couldn't believe it until I saw it in youtube. Sht, man, this is really disgusting, even more if people like their dogs to licks their face. I can imagine @fauxlaw letting Perry lick his face. Hahahahahaha.

When you eat those bio yoghurts to improve your gut microbiome, all that good bacteria is cultured from shit.


So dogs eat shit because it is good for their digestive system.


It's just that dog's aren't fussy about how their shit is served.


What dogs don't like is all those small plastic containers and environment pollutants that humans seem to favour when processing and bottling shit.

What are you talking about, Victor? You've got to denounce that practice, it's unhealthy.

Being higher on the food chain doesn't justify your existence other than to eat everything below you. Humans serve no logical reason for existing anymore than a dog.

I love cats but there's nothing quite like the companionship you get from a dog.
