GLASSJAW Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 The whole "are you a dog or cat person?" conversation is so stupid, I think. But after going for my morning walk, I was baffled by the ridiculous behaviour of so many dogs, and how their equally baffling owners just stood there laughing about it all. What is the appeal in dogs? Dogs are literally a decade long assault on your senses. They're loud, they smell, they never want to leave your sight They want you to walk them all the time, they want you to feed them all the time, you have to bathe them all the time, and they want to walk beside you when you get up to get a glass of water. I walk a lot, and I see dogs along the beach just running around with their dumb tongues hanging out, with people "cleaning up after them" and watching them fight with other dogs, which always spawns this awkward small talk between owners I would list all the things that make cats better, but just imagine the exact opposite of what I just said, and you've got a nice little cat. This criticism is not applied to labs, because labs are essentially overgrown cats, if raised properly Dog owners are people who are infertile or afraid of the commitment a child requires. Dogs are for people who want to project their emotions onto stupid animals who will never progress to the point of being able to establish their own emotions (like a child does). Thoughts? colondee consider this a call out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustJokinen! Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 You were going to get an angry rant from me until I reached the part about Labs. I love dogs and cats, but not those little dogs that look like cats. Edit: This probably isn't Canucks talk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Face it: dogs are smarter than cats. There is no argument regarding that. Police officers use K9's as there partners, and the disabled use dogs as guidance. Do we ever see cats doing that? No. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Special Ed Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 I like cats better myself. But Canucks talk? Anyway dogs need to much attention for my liking and requie way more upkeep. Cats are cleaner , self reliable and take care of any creepy crawlys at night. Not that I don't like dogs but I like cats more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cs2016 Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 I like both even though I don't own any dogs. It really depends on the type of person. My mother doesn't like dogs because she thinks they smell but my sister and my dad both like dogs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtpasc Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 humans and dogs are linked from earliest extents of our history. Dogs have even evolved their vocal communication to communicate with humans, something no other animal has done. They have been a part of our lives for as long as there have been human communities! I first realized I was a dog person shortly after adopting a cat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GLASSJAW Posted June 22, 2012 Author Share Posted June 22, 2012 Don't even get me started on those "people" who own snakes, rats, etc. They are more or less the child pornographers of pet owners Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil_314 Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 cats can be anti-social and way too territorial (my friend's thought I was his/ her scratching pole)... or at the other end of the spectrum they don't want to leave your lap. On the other hand, dogs are loyal, will play with you (cats only go for yarn/ mice... haven't tried this myself but do cats chase balls? Doubt it); of course, there are mean ones too but if I had to choose I would much rather have a nice, handsome, furry canine than a cat (plus it's funny how society keeps portraying cat owners as crazy people: TBBT Sheldon Zazzles, Crazy Cat Lady-- never heard much bad against dogs) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

avelanch Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 Disabled people generally use labs, because they are overgrown sensitive cats And for every dog that saves a person, 150 more attack a person, or bite a baby Nice try Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
