Sick of my girlfriend's dog. Dog owners are insane
It's nearly 6AM and I've been awake since 2AM bc my gf's dog just has to pace around and do that fur shake thing they do at night. Between the sound of it's claws on wood floors and it's jingling collar it's impossible to stay asleep. I woke up and put him out of the room and he then whines pressed up on the door banging into the door
I didn't grow up with dogs because my parents came from a muslim country and I always grew up with the house being very tidy and clean. My gf is american and well she's just very used to having a shit ton of pets shedding fur everywhere. I have found dog hair everywhere from in my coffee, to on my clothes to even on my balls. It's a part time job cleaning up dog fur and avoiding getting dog fur in my clothes, backpack, laptop, coffee cups etc and it annoys the shit out of me knowing that nothing is ever truly clean and this dog will shed its hair everywhere just existing in proximity to all my stuff
I'm convinced this dog obsession in america is clinical. Everywhere I look in this city there are homeless and drug addicts but people throw a prisoner collar on a dog and drag it around places and are convinced they are somehow good people? These dogs are basically indentured servants and it's no wonder they run right out the door away from their owners whenever they get the chance. Dogs are simultaneously genuises in the eyes of their owners when they are "good" but "stupid" when they try to escape their nut job owners. You cant have it both ways
I don't dislike dogs themselves, they are just animals and can't help being what they are and sometimes this dog can even be cute/funny for example how it guards the door from the outside when im using the bathroom. But the relationship people have with dogs is seriously sick.
