"It’s been said, 'If you lock your dog and your wife in the trunk of your car and come back three hours later, one of them will be happy to see you.'

A friend spent $1200 on cataract surgery for her 12 year old dog and I was thinking how many kids you could feed or clothe for that much money.

Man turns to Cornell, spends last dollar to save dog [$32,000]

Vet reports woman for refusing $10,000 surgery for dog

Thanks to the government-connected corporate and government collectives, some volks and their pets are treated like people, while their human neighbors from the shrinking, true private sector are dying like beasts.

Lock your wife and your dog in the trunk of your car for a couple of hours and see which one is happy to see you when you let them out........

We are all fond of our pets

I do not value animal life over human

I would sacrifice my beloved dog for an unknown human simply as a moral obligation which I think has a foundation in our lord

Doesn’t mean I’d like it by a long shot

My dog has only one dog friend and dislikes every dog she meets but she demands anyone within reach pet her.

The "X-Files" had a minor story line about a small dog. It chowed down on its dead-by-natural-causes owner, and Scully took the dog home.

A following epi had Scully bringing the dog to an investigation, and while walking it one night, it goes into a bush where a crypto-creature did the chowing this time, leaving Scully pulling the leash out of the bushes, minus the pooch.

Points for story continuity.

My dear wife quickly tires of my kiss affections these days

However our two Rottweiler boys ..uncut of course..why buy a male Rottie

Anyhow

She lets them , lick her face with abandon

I’m like honey have you observed where their noses and licking was previously

Dogs explore one another’s genitalia with abandon.and relish cleaning their own junk......not to mention poop sniffing and rotten animals they devour out on the pasture

Yet she relishes their affections

And they do love her

She’s Daeneryus Targaryen and they are her dragons

We get along with cats and dogs so well because they don’t talk back.


My dog will definitely talk back. He’ll bark at you even if all you do is scowl at him.

If I was to be stranded on a tropical island for ten years and I could pick a friend or family member to be with me, I would choose my dog.

Stop feeding them and see how long that lasts.


Can’t speak for pit bulls, but most dogs would simply starve to death, not stop loving you.

Indeed. I turned off Game Of Thrones for the entire first season after they killed the dog in episode one.

Well, the thing *I* learned from dogs is to
walk in a circle three times before lying down.

I would love to know how that, “abuse” story ended.
I don’t begrudge anyone who wants to spend their money however they wish. However, I don’t understand some folks priorities.
