Calling fish a "high maintenance painting" is hilarious. And accurate.
I can do one better. Ever heard of nano-reefs? Salt-water tanks with usually nothing than corals and maybe a few snails in them. Super extreme high maintenance, as the evaporation alone wrecks your salinity in a matter of days if you don't maintain it. Also, everything is expensive. Nothing really moves in it.
A fish tank, at the very least, is more like an 90's screensaver. A coral tank? Really just a 3d painting.
@@lunakoala5053 lol well that was informative. I guess some people don't run out of weird ways to spend their money. Must be a good problem to have. Q.Q
@@reoden7546 I had one of those, when I was a broke ass student. No, it wasn't a good problem to have. lol. But it thaught me a valuable lesson. Don't buy shit you can't afford to maintain, lol.
i loved having a fish tank, but although you follow every rules, they still die. I became so depress over that, i stopped buying fish and i now have a big tank tha i am now thinking transforming into a plant decoration little green house.
If your smart you breed fish, and frag corals. You can very easily make a good lump sum with coral frags.

“If you don't buy this dog, will we kill him?
The risk is yours to take.”
That was the best part.
Robert Dowler its remarkable you didn't already have doubts
the fact is it's the way capitalism work until we get rid of it !!
makes me feel like I've got a better understanding (and therefore an advantage) of how things work.

Sharukh Saifi: That makes no sense.
@@MetaKnight964 Do you know there is something called sarcasm.
What does this even mean, your kids?
@@engfragerm2657 animals you call pets
@@SharukhSaifi No people know sarcasm. Your comment just doesn't make sense. It is not clear what you are trying but failing to say.
It's weird when someone claims they love an animal and keep it in a cage or tied up most of the time
Eh. Not really as I've grown to understand.
Cause YOU may see it tied or locked..but that's probably because you're around.
The world doesn't really view animals the way they view kids.
I'd my kids are taken there would be FBI looking to find them.
But someone took my dog a few years back and all I can do is put up posters and to all over media HOPING someone is nice enough to not just decide they will keep him. If they do, what can I do about it?
So...I have to keep my animals tied so that you won't think it's so cute that you abduct him when he comes wandering by your house.
Dogs want to explore and play just like kids. Is it ok for a person to just take a child? But it's acceptable for them to do that to animals.
So to protect my animals and keep them with me, they will have to be tied or caged enough and at certain times because they are still animals who will venture off...as animals do.
Then there's the fact that if it's not just a small cute thing, people can overreact or attack it, in which it defends itself now the human laws dictate that animal must die AND you go to jail or pay up a lot.
So..the pet owner loves their animals. But they have to tied or caged because of YOU.
You may steal it. You may hurt it you may antagonize it which puts yourself at risk and the animal.
or sell their babies...in the case of dog owners. That is why i only have rabbits.
Lol humans do it willingly. 😂.
I kept the cage open most of the time. I kept it closed at first but my ferrets opened it themselves.
@@TaiFerret 'most of the time'
Incapable of forming bonds with living things that can talk? Buy one that can't talk and pretend like it loves you!
At least cats are honest but people still lie to them selves. No food no love
My mom mainly feeds my dog and it loves on me a bit.
Give or take it loves and takes up time with my mom more because my mom does most things for it.
But my dog still loves on me so what you are saying is not true.
But of course if you show something more love it's going to more than likely show you more love.
....until horrifically they start talking. Around here it truly is always something.
I didn't buy any of my animals. I saved them from being hit by cars, getting in fights, or starving to death. I don't have to pretend that they love me.

Michael Bush That you can feed live animals to if you cop the right one (tiger oscar, arowana, etc.) Fish aren’t as boring as people make them out to be I owned an oscar for 3 years and you can make fun of me but it let me pet it and only me, it swims away from stranger hands cause i’ve fed it since it was 2 inches big.
A 15 year old True. I have had several Cichlids, and most of them like to be petted.
No more like high maintenance.
Michael Bush haha same
Humanity's ugliest side portrayed in the most elegant and refined way possible. I miss their videos.
hah really? the fact that you have typed your comment means that you don`t give a shit either.
@@gergototh5090 I give a shit, man. That's why I commented in the first place. It's just... I'm not in a position to do anything about it that can have enough impact. That's the reality, and I am not disillusioned about it. I hope I will get there sometime... maybe. Let's hope so. 🙏
They are back!
Ugliest side? How? Because we evolved alongside other creatures so much so that their lives are improved by being around us?
Dogs self domesticated because of the benefits of living with humans. Not to mention there's evidence to suggest humans and dogs might have gone extinct around 3 times if not for our close bond. Dogs and humans have literally evolved together for thousands of years to the point we both have changes to fit the other. It's a relationship that improves both sides.
And to talk more to thinks like factory farming and shit, sure the way we treat these animals is horrible, but because humans find a use for them, they will continue to exist. If not for humans many of these species could have gone extinct and now they are some of the most numerous species on the planet.
@@mikoi7472 You can... it's a bit rich to oppress, experiment, maim and enslave a creature... and then tag them self-domesticated and celebrate the fact that they are not extinct at the end of it.
And you say many animals were saved from extinction because of man? Well... I'm sorry to say that they found themselves at the brink of extinction in the first place 'because' of the intervention of man.
And... you say many of these species continue to exist and are some of the most numerous species at present on Earth, because of man? Tell that to the poultry chickens that do not get to live more than three months. Tell that to the farm eggs that never get to hatch.
Imagine the same fate for humans. Would you be okay with it? As you and a chicken are the same... both just a life form? Would it be fine to enslave you as long as you are fed?
What do you say?
Don't talk as if man was the best thing that ever happened to Earth? He is not the best and will never be. All we can be happy for is that so far he hasn't been the worst thing that happened to Earth. Mankind is an accident of Earth. It is yet to be seen whether she will recover completely, or lose a limb... or lose her life because of it. 🙏
My dog has been intensely staring at me through this entire video, and now I don't know how to proceed with the rest of the day.....help.
Well, dogs directly stare at you if they want to challenge your authority, or they feel threatened. You might want to turn it down, they can hear and understand over 500 human words.
+Cangel Tibon It's too late to precede. You mean proceed.
+Ankh Infinitus you win grammar today.
Now that it's aware, you have to kill him. That's how it works.
+usern4metak3ns I feel like you think about dog rape often. Like, too often. Like, in a way that you try to make conversations into ones about dog rape, even when it has nothing to do with anything.
Fish= high maintenance painting
Hamster= reformed plague beast
Tarantula= monster hand
Parrot= pooping plane
I'm pretty sure that grey animal was a rat, not a hamster.
And actually, rats make excellent pets. Hamsters, not so much.
Don't rats keep other rats away from your home due to the fact that they avoid living with strange buddies?
joshua kim Yep I seriously don't understand the point of owning any of these, especially birds. Birds should never be pets, they should be outside flying around.
True I had a few hamsters and they were cute but not very friendly. My rat, however, was very friendly and clever. I miss him a lot, they sadly don't live that long, but they're great while it lasts.
Matthew Harris-Levesque Not necessarily. as long as you give enough time and attention to a hamster, they'll bond with you and be really friendly. and they're quite a bit smarter than given credit for.
I've had this point of view for ages and yet, people want to murder me every time I say this out loud. I love animals, but hate pet shops for treating them like furnitures...
I don't think that's a very uncommon opinion at all, at least among the animal people.
Thank you I mean some of these poor guys get raped and others unwillingly impregnated
My sentiments exactly. Why do people think that if you have this opinion that you don’t like animals. If anything it’s to the contrary, we do like them that is one of the reasons we don’t want them as pets.
@Chrisser - I'd like your comment multiple times if I could. 8>)
@@chrisser2088 Which makes no sense because if someone doesn't take them and take care of them, they will live a horrible, short life, and since domestic animals have had most of the wild bred out of them, they wouldn't last in the wild at all. I hate pet shops, because of how the animals are treated, but i still have two dogs, of whom i didn't buy from a pet shop, and i see nothing wrong with having them as companions if you treat them like a member of the family and don't abuse them. It's actually the more humane thing to do, instead of letting them rot in pet stores and puppy mills. And no, I don't OWN them any more than i would own one of my own children, because that is what they are to me, my children.
But then again, maybe you're right, maybe it IS better to let them rot. Do you even have a better solution than just oh no i don't believe in having pets?
"And remember to have your pets genitals removed at infancy without their consent, because it's the right thing to do." That joke made my circumcision scars itch...
oh.....
Isn't it insane how you turned the legitimate suffering of animals to be about you within a single sentence 👏👏 unless they also stopped your ability to breed at birth too they are not compatible procedures... Congrats on the ego though 😂
@@fractal_mind562 .....🤨
Technically male circumcision and neutering are completely different because one stops breeding while the other stops you from washing longer in the shower
@ConceptMind Well, if you kids actively suffered physical pain from excessive hormones, to a point where it simply becames uncontrolable and children started to fight and lose parts of their body, or even died, just to release their jizz, and at the same time possibly getting life ending DSTs with no cure or getting pregnant and dying of cancer or other one of the 100 ways a dog can die while giving birth (in humans is even higher. Birth mortalithy in humans was very high some years ago), you maybe would do the same. But different than most animals, humans can controll their sex drive (most of the time) and are fully aware of the risk of doing sex. We just do it anyway, but then its shame on us.
And remember, the example above would be with CHILDREN trying to have sex, because most animals have the same intelect or lower than a human child.
Wish they would do one on the funeral industry.
I second this.
That's a great suggestion!!
Or Penn and Teller bullshit episode about Death,
guess what guys! death is a scam! we're all actually immortal! and the funeral industry is getting rich with your forced death!

I generally view humanity as a species that got far but will, inevitably, fall to the next great filter.
So I hang out with simple, biological creatures as I ponder whether or not some greater cosmic karma will ultimately come knocking at my windowsill to kick my teeth in.
My cat is pretty independent though. I found him on the street, he came to me when I called. He let me pet him and then followed me to my courtyard. I gave him some food and went inside, thinking he was going to leave. He never left. 4 years later we still have this cat. He stays indoors half of the time now, but he goes out whenever he wants and always comes back. I'm not his owner, we're two creatures who benefit from and enjoy each other's company. He gets food and a safe place to sleep and I get to pet a kitty. Good enough for me. :))
Oh thanks! ^^
Aku Jo I think he was being a dick. But, that's actually a neat story. I rescued a cat once who was missing an ear and was all mangled up.. took her to the vet and then home and she disappeared, two days later my dog is going nuts by my couch and the damn girl had 8 kittens under my couch lol I kept them until they could fend for themselves and let them all go and they still live behind my house 3 years later. They play with my dog and come in the house occasionally and sleep in my garage when its cold or too hot.. But I don't consider them mine..

I love how fish are a high maintenance painting. I never understood the purpose of fish as pets.
my cousin had this big tank with several colorful fish in it, but she also lives in a big house and has two kids, so every time i went over for a visit, there was one less fish in it, until one day the tank was just gone. lol, now there's a pretty statue where the tank used to be.
***** that is so cool, dude, seriously.
I would consider Koi fish the only fish somewhat capable of being pet-like to any noticeable degree. And that's mostly because those things live long as hell if taken care of and jump around like excited dogs at people they like.
They literally are a high maintenance painting. Some of them might even look at you from time to time.
...Good to know. I think I'll steer clear of cichlids then...

Yeah, us smokers have absolutely no idea that smoking is bad for our health. Like, wow, really, I didn't even know
I know right? And just think.., "what if Roger put it in a video?"
So necessary. Only roger can truly explain the dangers of smoking, not literal decades of commercials, and having actual family and friends die from it. Cigarettes need to be outlawed because adults aren't capable of making adult decisions where they are concerned.
+The Geckomancer guess we better outlaw sugar
orgywithpigs6 Sure but it wouldn't do anything. No one uses sugar. We use high fructose corn syrup, and splenda, and fucking phenylalinine.
As a pet owner and animal lover, it pains me that you made some good points besides making me laugh. I love your videos!
If you love animals, you wouldn't enslave them for your enjoyment, and you also wouldn't pay for them to be tortured and killed in order to become pet food.
its something i been advocating aainst for over 10 years. i really wish the entire pet trade industry was abolished....... and yes i had and have pet myself. and i treat them well ofc... i give them the most freedom i can. i rescue pets.. from death or horrid situations. this last one was near starved to death. in the end we do what we can...
animals have feelings... dreams, emotions wants and needs, fears. wish everyone knew and understood this....
Eh, it’s a tricky spot. I only have a cat because I found it on the side of a road with flies all over it and a broken leg due to being spit out of an engine compartment it was hiding in. Now I have my own rough house and the cat has cleared it of mice and is nice to pet and look at.
I don’t put it in costumes or even a collar, though I did have it neutered and vaccinated because the population of Street cats is too high already. I keep it outdoors mostly because he does well out there. I’m kind of secluded most of the time and sometimes I wonder if I like my cat so much because I’m neurotic and have social problems.
I’ll say this video has a couple things backwards: leashes and restraints aren’t BDSM-themed, but BDSM is pet and total-control themed. To think the other ear is laughably absurd which makes me think this is a piss take. The other thing is that they bring up neutering like it’s wrong, when if we didn’t neuter these animals we would be worse for letting them populate all over the place, getting diseased, starved, and hunting small wild animals.
All in all this is an interesting that brings up some truths about pet ownership but also some ridiculous slander. They should do one on why circumcision is still common practice mostly in America if they really want to hit hard. This is petty, no pun intended.
@@FastDuDeJiunn So you pretty much want all domesticated animals to die? Because most of them will die without our help these days. You advocate against the pet industry yet take in pets. I commend you for doing so, but your also kind of a hypocrite. I understand wanting to save them. Most of our pets have been domesticated for so long, they don't know how to take care of themselves anymore.
I love his take on Bob Barker's "Please spay and neuter your pets" at the end 😂 "Please remove your mammals genitals in infancy without its consent"
Spaying pets doesn't actually involve removal of their genitals, though.
I'm against spaying and netureing!!!!
Or leave things alone and overpopulate the world with disease ridden starving snarling packs if aggressive animals that are worse than any puppy mill you ever saw that authorities will order shot in sight because they are killing children and eating them .
@James Patrick
Careful not to cut yourself on that edge m8
Do the same with humans and suddenly you get called a genocidal dictator. I know this because in my country there was a president who did that during his second mandate in the late 90s. They imprisoned him and hes currently alive (because the constitution of my country thinks death penalty is too cruel)
Those creatures spent centuries in training humans to pick up their poop and feed them for free
We are the lesser beings
Not to mention their foresight for castration. Humans could learn a thing or two from them.
we also idolize these creatures in heartwarming movies,books,songs, shows,etc. and in some cases we worship them by buidling sculputres, mummifying them, etc.
I know you’re joking, but the joke missed the whole point of the video and trades it in for a false narrative which serves to make you feel less guilty about owning a pet. Just thought I’d point that out
Or you just saying that to make you feel better that your animal slave keeper.
@@thedragonflyers6184 It's not a false narrative. Dogs were "self-domesticating" meaning they chose to become friendly with humans in exchange for scraps from human food waste and safety. Even traits like floppy ears were developed specifically to make them look more tame by the human perspective. There are tons of research on this...
"Are you tired of dominating inanimate objects that don't grant you the power over life and death?" It's surprising how unsurprising this describes the temperment of people looking to feel valueable in "dominating" a conscious life form.
Is the like encouraging the sarcasm or the repetition of the videos narrorators description of some human behavior toward validating themselves?
Not every animal is conscious and not to the same degree.
@@projectpitchfork860 most are conscious, I think you mean sentient and so far we know of only 1, humans.
@@luisgay5897 no we are the only sapient animal there are other sentient animals
@@luisgay5897 These are just buzz words for people to feel good about these decisions, we define animals by intelligence, but we define intelligence on what WE consider intelligence. Some birds use quantum fluctuations to fly north for the winter, whales can sense echos (vibrations) from miles away, we cant do that... And yet we are killing 10 billion chickens a year for their meat, and slaughtering whales for their bodies... We need words like "sentient" ect to keep people from realising what they're doing... They're killing living breathing thinking INTELLIGENT animals because its easier than an alternative, and the big companies involved have invested alot into keeping this going..
If you truly think we are the most intelligent species then you should probably reconsider intelligence, because its more than just 10x10, or your ability to memorise textbooks.
This is why pet experts often say things like, "If you can't afford to spoil them, you can't really afford to have them." It sounds harsh and judgmental, but you're confining an animal to your apartment. You can at least make it a nice apartment with fun stuff to do and decent quality food.
Frijole Exactly!
A lot of poor and even some homeless people have pets. I just don’t understand this.
The human world does not allow predators to live. If dogs didn’t become our pets they would be extinct or put in factory farms for food.
And what the fuck is a pet expert?
Not everyone lives in an apartment. Some of us live in the middle of nowhere and have a few acres.

@@DavidAbyssal Not true.
My cat does have a choice. She lived in the street, we opened the door and she hasn't left ever since.
yes because of millenia of domestication, try doing the same with any wild feline (cat)
Well fyi, my mom is 78 and has never owned a pet. A feral cat adopted her (I mean that). The cat was filthy, and part of a feral group near her home. But slowly over the course of last summer, the cat grew more interested in my mom and eventually went inside. My mom has never been able to hold it, but she can pet her.
And honestly its been great for both of them. The cat was very small and underweight before and now looks healthy and happy. My mom was living alone for years and was even experiencing mini strokes before the kitty came in, and within 2 months her cholesterol and blood pressure were normal again.
And to give cats one more benefit, we know they are the only animal to want to live with us. They domesticated themselves and there is even proof of this same thing happening with wild cat species in areas of the middle east and northern Africa right now. Its truly a companion situation where we both get benefits.
Emerald kat yes, they are probably the only species that is with humans willingly. I care for feral cats in a public garden and before we managed to sterilize all of them, we noticed some were born feral and others naturally wanted to be petted. They have all this different personalities...
Emerald kat feral cat isnt a wild cat, sure cats and humans can make relationships that benefit them both but its only because of us that they are so dependable...
Michael That ignores the historical side of cats becoming domesticated. They domesticated themselves. In fact, there is currently two species of wild cats that are doing exactly what our kitty's ancestors did: move close to people for food and shelter. That's the cats domesticating themselves, not us imprisoning them...

Do you often find yourself completely devoid of anything worthwhile to do for two to four hours? Do you have a strong urge to usher a leather wrapped rubber sphere into a net with a hole in it or a designated rectangle? Do you enjoy competition that is largely based on predetermined genetic factors such as height or innate body mass that will completely outweigh any amount of training or determination?
Well do I have the activity for you: sports!
Yes, run up and down a carefully manicured lawn maintained with funds adequate to feed an entire 3rd world nation as you crash into other grown men ensuring that none of you will be able to walk properly past the age of 35. Not a fan of the outdoors? Perhaps basketball is your game where the tallest person in the room will innately outperform you solely for the fact that he can block all of your attempts to throw the leather sphere into the designated net, then proceed to effortlessly place the sphere in his own team's net, for whatever the fuck that proves. Don't forget about the world's favorite sport: Soccer. Nothing beats a game where the winner is determined by whoever can perform the most Academy Award winning displays of injury simulation before the clock runs out.
Not a fan of the objectivity of placing spheres in nets? How about action sports! Yes, action sports where judges must carefully deconstruct the way one person flips his dead tree with wheels on it differently from another person and somehow does it in such a way as to be judged the winner. Yes, that flip was certainly flippier, you win my good sir, just don't forget to decline your drug test, not for steroids, you know, other stuff.
Maybe all of this physicality is too much for you and you'd rather just relax a little after a hard week's work, how about giving eSports a go? Take everything you love about sitting back and playing a video game and throw it out the window as you strive to discover every programming error and balance issue and turn a once fun video game into all of the thrills of a Calculus worksheet. Then, after all of your hard work dissecting every element down to the core binary code, get completely annihilated by some kid in Korea that hasn't even hit puberty yet.
Well, maybe playing sports isn't for you after all, but what about spectating? Yes, a spectator!

dont buy, adopt
adopting is still buying, because of the money you will still be paying
+DaNestingDawg I don't know how animal adoption works in your country, but where I live when you adopt an animal you don't pay anything.
+dynamitedmt if you adopt from a shelter you will have to pay fees for shots and neutering. Also I believe the cost was in reference to the fact that you have to pay for food, grooming, and medical care.
Janet Hart If that is the case, my bad ;)
However you still do have to do all of that stuff (neutering aside) in the case of a human child, and I assume most of us don't consider people are buying a child when a couple has one, those costs are inherent to the care of that living thing, that's why I didn't assume DaNestingDawg was referring to those costs.
perhaps we should neuter our children and leave our pets alone!

+MadZuri That could be Roger's opening narration word for word.
18 years ago I bought a baby cockatiel from a pet store. I knew it was going to be a 20-30 year commitment. And so far, I'm right. In his 18 years, he has seen all there is to see. He's bored with everything. He has become bored of literally every bird toy on the market, and of every reasonably safe household item I can think to offer him, and of "pet T.V.," of the birdfeeder outside, and of his housemates. You can't remove a bird's genitals, and he wants to breed. But he doesn't understand that he's a bird, and I'm not going to give him another bird to breed with anyway, so he's frustrated, horny and angry. He shrieks constantly. He shrieks when he's happy, when he's mad, when he's startled and when the house is quiet, when the house is loud, and most of all, when he's bored. Which is all the time except when he's preening. He's permanently bonded to me and giving him to someone else would break his li'l mind. Don't buy birds, people. They are too smart for us. You think you know where you're gonna be in life 20 years down the road, but you don't.
Getting an animal that can fly and keeping it in a cage is the most cruel thing a human being can do. I never understood why anyone would do that to such beautiful animals.
@@azel8rrp169 I agree. I no longer have a desire to keep anything in a cage ever again. But you see how I'm kind of stuck with this cockatiel. Thanks to humans, including me, he's profoundly broken. I'm just trying to make things as nice as I can for him, given what I've got to work with.
At least your honest. I’ve owned pets in the past and felt so guilty about it. Everyone just goes on like it’s normal. I had a cat once and the vet kept on pestering me saying I needed to get it neutered and I am putting it at risk. It absolutely ruined my cat and it had a complete personality change it was a shadow of its former self. The hamsters I had as a kid spent most of their life’s trying to escape their cages and don’t get me started on dogs. I felt awful and it’s for that very reason I’ll never own another living thing again. It’s wrong and cruel on so many levels. More people need to wake up to this.
Thanks for point this out. I’ve always thought that people who own dogs are into control. And keeping birds in a cage and fish in a tank is so cruel, like jailing the animal for life. Also taking away an animal’s reproductive rights (cutting their organs off and prohibiting them from having sex) in the name of so they won’t be killed by humans in another way is just kind of weird. I’m really glad this video was made.
simply let him breed and take the eggs away afterwards xD lol

Whenever I feel lonely and wanting that animal connection ... I’ll go to one of the big city/regional parks, beaches/seaside or nature reserves outside town ... and enjoy the water fowl, song birds, squirrels, skunks, raccoons etc. And if I want to interact with dogs ... there’s always the local dog park. And for cats, well, a simple walk in the neighbourhood will involve an encounter or two with some that roam around & are particularly affectionate.
1. Slave implies that your pets are working for you, so captives would probably be a better word. Captives with stockholm syndrome.
2. Well, what are we supposed to do with our captives? They can't survive in the wild (Unless they're a tarantula or snake or something, but you still can't just release them). A wild pomeranian would be hilarious though.
(Edit:
This comment is a year old; I don't remember this video or agree with a lot of what I'd said. You can still reply if you like, but note that I'll probably ignore it.)
Ah, there we see the wild Pomeranian in its wild habitat! Stuffing it's face with dried-up scum found on the floor of some chicken nugget factory, it feeds. Now we see it napping in a spot of sun, while its symbiotic partner, Sally, scrapes its hands across the creature's digestive organ without it knowing. How beautiful, Mother Nature.

During the day he will position himself near where ever I am and every evening will jump in to my lap for pets and scratches. I call it his two minuets of love but really it can go for a while until he is tired of it and jumps down. I think he is grateful I rescued him from the street life. He's living on Easy Street now.

Yeah this vid is so true on so many levels - kittens and puppies eventually go to animial shelters - impulse buying leading to neglect latter on - endless vet costs associated with a creature born into misery thanks to inbreeding - my take on pet ownership go into it with eyes wide open.
True of people who, horrifyingly, don’t educate themselves at all going in. When you adopt an animal, you don’t just discard them when they are inconvenient or you’re done with them. I was shocked when I heard people did such things when I was a kid.
Probably the saddest are the well-intentioned but naive people who don’t research dog breeds before getting one. They end-up with a husky but had no plans to play with them outdoors five times a day, give them a job, and tons of space to run around in, for example.

The smirk after he saying "try that with a human child "🤣🤣🤣
This made me think about how there was a guy on the internet who asked for advice. Because, well you had a good relationship with his dog. And would play, feed, show all the affection in the world for this dog.
Then one day, he opened the door, and fido did like any pet. He bolted. And was lost.
Eventually after spending some time asking around and looking for his runaway dog, one of his neighbors found him and brought him back home.
The problem was.the dogs personality did a 180.
He refused to acknowledge him anymore, didn't wanna play with him anymore, didn't wanna cuddle. And only was interested in games that involved "treats" as a reward.
He made it sound like the dog was side eyeing him. And sitting far away from him. Avoiding him at all cost.
He took the dog to a vet, nothing wrong with him. He even said the dog had zero problems with people and was friendly to everyone BUT HIM, the owner.
People said he probably brought home the wrong dog, or it was a "spicy" dog breed thats stubborn. And so his behavior is normal.
But lets be honest.....
This dog tasted freedom for the first time in his life via animal instincts. And now hes back locked in the house. Forced to be "loved". And desired by his owner. 😂
More like the guy did something terrible to the dog and then that caused it to lose trust in him and he really thought the dog was only non-living item.
Lol! I hate to say it but that story made me think of some former housewives I know! 🤣🤣🤣
couldn't agree more about "being frustrated with human relationships". I think that is exactly why a lot of people prefer taking care of animals than an orphan.
It's cheaper to adopt an animal over a child. Sad but true.
What if you're not financially stable enough to take care of a human child? Or not in a good place emotionally?
Taking in an orphaned human is A LOT of responsibility.
Taking in a an orphaned/abandoned kitten just requires you to feed it and make sure it's safe and healthy. You don't have to teach it about life, your psychological issues won't directly affect it... These two scenarios are not the same

Pet owners in recent years have begun equating their custody over their dogs &/or cats as a parent-child relationship. I have trouble expressing to them just how creepy this makes me feel. But it does. A lot.
Well, it makes sense to me. Not everyone is comfortable with "owning" a pet, they might prefer being a pet's "guardian". It does not mean they truly equate the relationship with kids to relationship with pets, more like make them more palatable
They're broken
Tbh i equate animal care as more of a friendship bond. I understand why ppl call themselves pet parents because technically even animals can adopt and be parents to other species which means humans can too.
