Things you wish you could say

Spring-boarding off @azurbanclucker's bad night...

I'm sorry, but dog people are the worst. And this is coming from someone that had dogs for a decade. They don't train them, they don't clean up after them, and they neglect them (both with medical needs and socialization). I'd estimate that maybe 10% of dog owners are actually responsible.

Generalizations are just that - generalizations

This meeting is the perfect example of why you need to let me run loose and just start fixing stuff. We're walking the same circles we've been walking for years now, because the same people are more interested in padding their resumes with new shiny tools, than actually solving the same problems we've had for 10+ years. You don't get different results when you're reinforcing the same incorrect behavior over and over.

Yes, I'm super crabby. I've been up since 2 am because of the doofus dog next door.

They say dogs can't generalize.

Also, I hope you didn't take offense to my comment (I know dogs are a big part of your life). I guarantee that most people who own dogs on BYC are excellent owners. We're already here talking about chicken welfare, so of course these are the same types of people that will care about their dogs.

Thankfully, or they wouldn't like most people. See how that works? No offense taken - it takes a lot to offend me. The people who left that GSD outside are idiots. His job is to be with/protect his people. It's what his DNA dictates.
