Dog Appreciation Thread
 

Dogs are wonderful.

Maybe this is an epic fail idea but I thought maybe we could discuss dogs, our own and the species, and how cool they are and how much comfort and happiness they provide.

Dogs are always happy. Always living in the moment, no concern about the future, no regrets when it comes to the past, just taking each moment as it comes and trying to seize as much happiness as possible each day.

We could learn a lot from the dogs. We really, really could.

I agree that it’s important to learn from dogs but I’m not so sure about the past/future thing. I might be taking it a little too literal but they worry about tthe recent past and soon to be future and sometimes they have long memories.

But yeah basically what I think you’re saying is dogs are always up for celebrating the moment which is cool. My dog is 100% cool with everything as long as we’re together but when I gotta ditch for work it’s like hey no bueno occult

Not the eating shit part though.

I love dogs. My family had chihuahuas when I was growing up, and I learned a lot about life and death whenever the dogs had puppies. Tiny little things, so cute, so fragile. One of my fondest memories as a child is holding a runt chihuahua newborn in my hand and feeding him formula from an eye dropper because he was too weak to suck on his mother's nipple. I fed him and kept him warm at all times (we lived in Michigan, and it was winter), and the good boy survived. It's probably the best thing I did in all my childhood.

No addiction can justify this. What a bunch of cowardly losers.
