Woman insists on bringing her 70-pound dog on kayaking trip, calls friend ‘controlling’ for trying to shut it down: ‘People need to learn to go places without their pets’

Some people insist on bringing their dogs absolutely everywhere, like how some people insist on bringing their babies everywhere. Both are unnecessary (okay, one a little more than the other) and both are annoying. Sometimes you want to do something that doesn’t involve babies or dogs. And that’s your right to do. But if you …

Parents throw tantrum when dog owner refuses to let their bratty kids ride his golden retriever: ‘No asking, no eye contact, just an unspoken expectation that their children were entitled to use my living, breathing pet as a ride’

Little kids can’t always handle being around dogs, and dogs can’t always handle being around little kids. Some families have dogs from the day their babies are born, but a lot of parents hold off on getting a big furry animal until their kids can listen to «no» and obey it. It doesn’t matter if …

Family abandoned 7-year-old dog because they were expecting a baby, begs new owner to give them the dog back 10 months after she adopted him: ‘The husband never wanted to give the dog up but it was an ultimatum the wife gave.’

Sometimes animals need to be rehomed. It’s a sad reality of pet ownership, and it doesn’t inherently make somebody a bad person, as long as they go through the proper rehoming channels. There’s a significant difference between leaving a cat in a cage in front of a storefront, letting it out into the street like …

Entitled dog owner refuses mother and child entry into preschool playground: ‘Hijacking the park like that was selfish’

I’m as much of a dog person as the next… dog person, but some dog people can be annoying. They forget that their fur babies aren’t real babies and that there are a few places where they maybe shouldn’t be allowed. Karens are Karens, no matter if they’re German Shepherd enthusiasts or not.  I always …

Defensive Dog Mom Beefs With 3-Year-Old Child for Approaching Service Dog, Causes Controversy on Twitter

Stick with me here, because I’m about to say something that could be contentious: there is a comparison to be made between dogs and small kids.

Dog Owner Mortified After Using Their Dog’s Unbecoming Nickname in Front of an Acquaintance, Hilarious Misunderstanding Ensues

No self-respecting dog owner calls their dog by their given name. It’s always a silly nickname like ‘Mr. Snuffulupagus’, ‘sausage boy’, or ‘Pepe le Pew’, but your dog should never be susceptible to their legal, written nomenclature that’s on their adoption forms. However, things can go wrong if your dog’s nickname is a little too …
