>>4832407I would've guessed Anatoli
>>4832409There are pyrenees and anatolians neighboring the farm I got him from, though he has double dew claws on his back legs, not sure of that's more common on pyrenees or anatolians

Also are there any dog foods/treat that don't taste so bad? Is this just a human taste receptor issue? All dog food tastes extremely bland...
>>4832605In good faith I'm going to point out that dogs sense of taste is about only one sixth of what humans is and that they mostly enjoy food through smell
>>4832605dogs dont have the same senses we do. theirs is adapted for an all meat diet and is mostly smelling for condition+the ability to taste water and salt content. we have to navigate a landscape of potentially toxic berries to get nutrients our dumb monkey bodies never evolved to synthesize so our sense of taste and color vision have to be better so we don't poison ourselves.>>4832583instead of paying for bougie dog treats just make them at home. "natural" dog treats are basically flour and peanut butter cookies without sugar or fat added most of the time. sometimes they pour in some ground bacon or other pulverized meat product and some gay "superfood" berry that doesnt actually do anything but make it blue so they can charge you more.

What do you use to clean dog hair from your floor? In running the swiffer with a microfiber cloth and a robot vacuum.
>>4832854I just use robovac twice a day. Once a week run it on mop mode.

>>4832891retard why would you squeeze it. 48 hours to live go to an emergency vet now.
I got to watch heather kill a mouse tonightI know she's definitely killed a lot of them, and i've caught her ripping up whole burrows before, but getting to see her hunt a larger one instead of just catching her eating it is rare. She's so fast and precise, she puts the neighborhood cats to shame. The mouse tried to dart between her legs and she basically did a flip and landed a paw right on its head. The most surprising part is she let me take it from her
>>4832990How'd you cook it?
>>4832991Sent to the mauschwitz ovens

>>4833175Yes the gender bender edition>>4833232Thanks, I've been considering a second dog, and just ended up saying fuck it when I saw this guy's picture.>>4833234I've just got a little ranch on an acre of land, definitely not in the middle of nowhere, so I'm working on blocking out the rest of the world by planting evergreen trees.>>4833269The only cure for puppy fever is puppy>>4833531She's crazy jealous haha, she's got only dogitis, but I just saw her playing with him for the first time.
>>4833604Would you say it was an impulse buy? I mean, what's done is done, you know.Are you worried about him getting too rough? He may easily overpower her when he's older and stresses her joints.
>>4832168HELP PLEASE! DID I JUST BREAK MY DOG? I am 100% R+ but just super alpha rolled my dog on accident. It was reflex jolt bc his bite hurt me. I have 3 month old doodle who is a little aggressive. He loves to bite, not mouth, bite. He lunges and snaps and is all full of piss and vinegar over it. I have been working on bite inhibition which he is getting better with but he broke skin for the 1st time today then the 2nd time he bit hard is when it happened. So he was rowdy, my hand already hurts, and he clamped down on the thumb pad in palm, a yanked his leash to get him away. His paws left the floor he went head over butt and landed on his back. I was shit scared but then the weirdest thing happened. He immediately ran to me, went into down, then when I let him he went submissive and gave me his belly. He was calm obedient and gentle ever since. Like dream dog level of obedience. I sat on the floor and he just chilled in my lap for an hour. This is the 1st time we did this, normally his nipping is so bad and he goes for the neck if you get in his space that it is just constant time out, but now he was like the best dog ever. So I’m scared I 1) just made him submissive which will make him reactive and 2) made it so that he associates behaving with being alpha’s and will challenge people to make him be good, like will he be even more rough with my kids now to test them?What should I do?
>>4833609Things usually work out in the long run, bigger dogs tend to tire out faster, and if they don't find an equilibrium on their own, I will step in, but I try to be proactive and avoid future bad habits now. For the time being he's just a big goober. I tried to talk myself out of buying him, but caved and got him anyway, plenty of time to think on the 2 hour drive to get him. Compared to the type of people who contact a breeder before their dog even has a planned litter it's impulsive, but not like I haven't been considering a second dog.
>>4833623Very nice anon, GL!
>>4833619>AI generated image>AI generated postI think you should take this one back to India and tweak it to be more believable. KWAB.
>>4833619Accidentally hurting your dog is no big deal and you both basically reacted the sameIt's not repeated and purposeful no big deal. Patterns are where disorders come from.>Even in your larp, you're wrong
What would your steps of actions be if your dog killed a cat?points of info>first off no it's not a pitbull, it's a small hairy terrier>the cat was in my backyard>dog has never hurt a cat before even if it was in the backyard>my backyard is fenced and my dog can't get out, but cats can get in and out (easy to climb fence for cats) >i saw the cat prior and chased it out myself, but the cat came back, which lead me to believe it was retarded>my dog has no injuries other than a scratch on his paw >i don't know whose cat it is, infact i've never seen the thing before >nobody seemed to have witnessed this event but me, I promptly pulled my dog off but he fucked the cat up bad already and it died 2 mins laterWhat's the way to handle this?
>>4833656also I should add no tags or anything and there's no stray cats here, it's normal for people to let their cats roam though
>>4833656Nothing you can do you can only correct a behaviour while it is fresh. Your dog did nothing wrong and it is not like your dog got out and attacked a cat, it was in your yard. Nature is just like that sometimes.
>>4833656I'm going to refer this one to the Indians.
My little puppy
>>4833783Has grown in to a whole ass dog
>>4833656Bury it and celebrateFood chain, bitch. If people think its funny for their cat to roam and kill songbirds it deserves the natural consequences of entering a superior animals territory. Dogs are smarter, faster, and more agile. Any cat that enters a dogs territory is suicidal.
>>4833656Such as shame you found that cat dead in public land unrelated to you or your household. Very kind of you to take it to your nearest vet or whoever takes dead animals where your are.Hope your dog's unrelated wound recovers well.
>>4833784>>4833783Now that is BASED.
>>4833656This happens all the time and isn't a big deal for you. It's just the natural order of the animal world. Like "my cat just killed a stray budgie". Why do people let their budgies out then? Cats are a natural prey item for dogs like dogs are a natural prey item for leopards. If there were fenced in leopards would you let a fence hopping dog go out? Fuck no.
>>4833783>>4833784I've heard dalmations can have aggression problems but I think they're neat
>>4833656Housecats aren't meant to be outside, and various factors, such as coyotes or cars, kill these cats. Also, as long as your dog is in your backyard, it isn't a problem. From now on, It would be best to teach your dog to recall or leave it to prevent this from happening again in public.
>>4833783>>4833784I would like to see more of this trend.
>>4833862They're most definitely a guard dog. Proper socialization is an easy fix, but they will always be aloof with strangers.>>4833890Adorable >I miss Ruca
>>4833894:(
Me and my family are incapable of walk training a dog. Every single one of them pull & bark at people/dogs. I thought this new puppy I could finally train, she gets a walk a day and still she does these things.
>>4833913Well, what is your current training schedule? I mean, how are you actually "training" your dogs? What do you do when they pull, or bark?
>>4833880>>4833860>>4833826>>4833787I ended up disposing it, but I second guessed what I did so I asked. I just wasn't sure if this is a bigger deal or something. Thanks
>>4833942Some states in the US are absolutely fucking retarded and would want your dog put down for that even though they did nothing wrong and the law wouldn't give 2 shits about any other common city varmint (ie: rabbit). Check, and invest in opaque fencing
You fags don't leave your collars on your dog all day, do you? Unclip it, massage their neck, NOW!
Is this really your average basset owner?
>>4833978No. Cocker Spaniel/Beagle mixes are owned by women aging 40-60.
>>4833982That's not a basset?
>>4833989Those don't exist, they are cocker spaniel/beagle mixes. Get with the times.

Does he want me to keep beating his ass or something because I will until he stops. He's way too old for this shit
>>4834044The issue is you're antagonizing your dog instead of teaching them what to doYour dog hasn't learned to shit inside. They've learned that you attack them for shitting and now you're in a contest. Contests are for equals. You've lowered yourself to the level of a dog.>My territory! GRRRRR NO MARK
>>4834044>t.
>>4834044>gay woman: "we don't deserve dogs">this guy: and i wasn't about to let the lady be wrong
>>4834044In humans, negative parenting behaviors are associated with maladaptive outcomes.We know being aggressive, having outbursts, and spanking kids is abusive and doesn't lead to them learning right from wrong.Why do people treat dogs differently? Why does common sense supersede people like this?
>>4834044truckspie has entered the thread
>>4833514>spend money on a whole dog>spend more money having healthy parts cut out of itWhy would you do that? Rescue dogs are way cheaper and they come altered.
>>4834045>uhm ackchyually he doesnt know hes not supposed to shit inside.If this was true he wouldnt be afraid to do it in front of me. If I dont want him to do something that means its wrong and he shouldnt do it. He knows very well there are consequences for what he's doing so I will continue to use physical punishment. He is the one making the choice to do the wrong thing.>Your dog hasn't learned to shit inside. They've learned that you attack them for shittingI attack them for shitting INSIDE. He know's I'm fine with him shitting outside because he isnt afraid to do that in front of me and knows there are no consequences for that>>My territory! GRRRRR NO MARKDamn right>>4834052I dont think there is anything wrong with spanking your child within reason, but there is a much better argument against it because you can actually communicate with a child and make them understand why what they did is wrongWith a dog on the other hand, him knowing that I dont want him to do something isnt going to stop him from doing what he wants because why wouldnt he? He knows nothing bad will happen if he disobeys. He needs to know something bad will happen if he performs a bad behaviour, and violence is a universal and efficient way of communicating that>boohoo noooo dont hurt le heckin pupperStfu with your soft white people parenting shit. This is why your children all turn into school shooters and trannies

>>4834153And they definitely don't understand cause and effect how he does
>>4834120>If this was true he wouldnt be afraid to do it in front of me. Dogs are retarded buddy. He doesn't have such complex thoughts. Don't be such a fucking woman trying to interpret hidden malice into a fucking dogs actions lol. All he knows is he shouldn't shit there when you're watching. That doesn't mean he doesn't know he shouldn't shit there period. If you want a good solution for this, clean it up then put his food there from time to time. Not on the dirty floor, mind you, this isn't a punishment, it's to get him to realize this isn't a shitting/pissing spot, but living space.
>>4834156>That doesn't mean he doesn't know he shouldn't shit there period. I fucked up writing that I meant: That doesn't mean he knows he shouldn't shit there period. He only knows he shouldn't do it when you watch. You have to teach him that he shouldn't shit there period, and putting food in those spots after cleanup is a good way to do it.

How do you guys pack your kongs/lickmats/snuffle boards?Any tips for doing it quicker?I swear I spend more time prepping my pup's kibble into enrichment devices than I do prepping my own dinner.
Laugh at my neighbor's dog. It kept digging under their fences so it has to wear this stupid triangle of shame now. Ha ha! Can you guess the cross breed?
>>4834277Now post the owners
>>4833787lolDogfuckers are both delusional and full of hate
>>4833914I reward her with lots of treats when she walks next to me nice, I stop in place when she pulls but she'll do this thing where she quickly comes back to me but then pulls again. When she barks at someone I immediately turn to walk the other way, and when I spot them before she does I point at them and give her treats and continue walking in the direction when she doesn't bark.
>>4834286None of that is delusional. It's actually rather correct. Death is indeed the consequence a cat faces when entering the territory of a superior predator. And dogs are indeed the superior predator. Highly intelligent and social apex predator vs. dumb mesopredator.If it's hate it's surely because they're more of a birdfucker
>>4834282Nah, he's an LSG, but has a tendency to escape like most LSG that don't have 20 acres to roam... When he is unsupervised outside he has the collar on, but it gets taken off daily from what I've seen.
>>4833656>What would your steps of actions be if your dog killed a cat?>my cat? get rid of the dog and never get another one because im a bad owner>someone elses cat, on my land? id feel bad, but at the end of the day thats what people risk with having outdoor cats. i love cats but i cant control mine and my dogs life in fear of someone else's out of control semi-domesticated animal entering my property. the last thing i wanna do is pick up a dead cat my dog killed but it was neither of our faults, and solely on the owner.
>>4834277Pure evil
>>4834338Why tho? I mean I get it, but it's so he doesn't get hit by a car, trampled by cows, or shot by some disgruntled farmer.
>>4834341Maybe the dog is bored and is digging for that reason.

>>4834372The dog has free roam of an acre+ with his triangle collar. He's a great pyrenees X anatolian shepherd. They all love to escape, roam around, and they are very independent dogs that are hard to train. I think it's in their nature. The GP and Akbash I post pics of have escaped numerous times. >>4834376You should have drawn the hand as well.
>>4834385How quintuple dog dare you tell such blatant lies about my dogson? I'm NEVER bringing him in proximity of a bitch in heat EVER AGAIN. The dude was going absolutely crazy for like two weeks straight over it.
I want to get a dog but I keep fearing I'm going to fail and not be a good enough owner
>>4834423Are you able to caring/feeling human being, somewhat intelligent, have a reasonable amount of patience, and at least an hour or two of free time per day? If so you shouldn't do too bad.Watch some training vids to see if it looks like fun. Training is a fun and satisfying part of owning a dog imo. :D
>>4834423Dogs quickly become a burden so if you're one of those people who gets over things quickly you shouldn't do it.Otherwise just being concious of the idea that you might not be a good dog owner puts you leagues ahead of most dog owners. You have to be confident with dogs though if you want to train them and keep them even.
>>4834423>>4834427>>4834441For me besides the puppy blues stage the hardest part has been the limitations that come with not leaving the pup home alone for >4 hours.I don't work close enough to swing by on my lunch break so it's a constant battle of having someone available to let the pup out to toilet.
>>4834487This is part of why I don't get puppies

>>4834666Yes mr satan
>>4834666Of course, breed determinism is rarely true unless you have a pedigree dog. This is because breed standards include temperaments.
>my obese, disabled parents think they could handle an Australian Shepherd
>>4834704Can they walk 2-3 miles daily and play a couple of games with the dog?
>>4834722No. They can’t walk 100 yards and they think putting dogs in the kennel for hours is an acceptable punishment. They don’t play any games with their small terrier mix, that dog spends 16 hours a day in the kennel.
>>4834724Why don't you just murder them? Can't imagine your upbringing was less than insufferable.
>>4834124>>4834153>>4834156>>4834159I literally dont give a fuck I'm just going to keep beating him every time he does it until he stops. Eventually the beatings will be so ingrained into his memory that he will have flashbacks any time he even thinks about pissing on my floor.He knows what the consequences are when he does it and still chooses to do it anyway so its his fault. I want him to be afraid.
>>4834728>>4834732Least deranged dogfags
>>4834732Why do you even own a dog?
>>4834724Well that is sad
>>4834739Thats truckspie. He's psychotic
Will getting a dog prevent me from killing myself?
>>4834756Life pro tip: mix barbituates and alcohol, then buy a chihuahua
>>4834756Depends. Just find some real meaning in life and your problems should all be solved.
>>4834756Do NOT get a dog you suicidal retard. You'll just end up abandoning it when you off yourself.
If you dress up your pet you're a faggot simple as
Haha
>>4834631I never said you do, I said leaving a dog alone for 10 hours isn't ok even if you "just leave it outside bro"
>no more blogposts>no more collodion updates Goodbye cruel world
>>4834756Yes but it's not a sponge your emotions, you have to really take care of a real animal
>>4834789Nooooo! Not my #1 fan offing herself! How will I get my attention?
>>4834794Why are her arms kinda brown near the chest?
>>4834766Are these npc dogs? I haven’t seen them do tricks or be as expressive as Leo?
>>4834796They fight each other/other animals sometimes and get banged up. They're recovering from fleas as well. I'm not really 100% sure, but a couple of them have scabs on their head/ears also>>4834797Nah. They're legit working dogs guarding our flock of laying hens, and it has been very hot lately. They're very sweet dogs once they know you're friend. They play really rough with each other, so if you hype them up to play around you'll always get scratched pretty bad when they jump on you. Their one command is sit, and I think I taught one of them touch.I'm usually pretty busy when I'm around them, but I always try to get a few pets in...
>>4834809Same POV;
>>4834817Lol. I guess.
>>4834809I guess their qol isn’t affected by much, I mean they’re enrichment is hanging out with chickens and being around ya and Leo. I think it’s very kind that you pet them once in a while. :’D
>>4834797All dogs are NPC dogs tbqhVery little personality beyond their breed standard and any puppyhood traumas
>>4834824Trvke
>>4834823:D>>4834824D:
>>4834824Do you own a border collie?
>>4834759How?>>4834762Well obviously I would give the dog away before killing myself. Just like writing a will to give away my assets
>>4834834Spiritual development.
>>4834834Serious advice; get that dog to help you manage and start looking at the positive in everything. Literally, and if someone hurt you, understand that not everybody is out to get you. What dog were you looking at?
>>4834869Woah, retard. I could explain, but it's too off topic, and I'm not writing an essay for you.>>4834873This is significantly better advice. Despair is your enemy.
Didn't want to make a new thread on this, but I wanted to ask the American dog owners: How do all of you keep your dogs from freaking the fuck out during July 4 fireworks? Right now I have their ears covered with a fabric loop and it seems to work, they look like they're annoyed but I feel that that's better than screaming their lungs out for several hours.
>>4834124Dogs do understand cause and effect that's literally how positive reinforcement works.

>>4834915Both of my dogs are used to gunfire randomly ringing out at times during the night. It’s really not an Issue unless the fireworks are extremely close (5 ft) in which case even I get startled from the noise.
>>4834915Neither of mine care about fireworks or thunder
>>4834733Oh its you>falseflag>dogfags sure are crazy huhI’m sending my dog out next time i see a c*t in my yard just for you. Pest control is based!
