Vindictive animals.
What really irks me about dog nutters is that they're quick to attribute intelligence to these animals in the sense of
"MaNs BeSt FriEnD" and saying they can sense when someone's a bad person or subliminally "just know" when their owners are having a bad day, etc. But any negative traits that would suggest they're "intelligent" enough to exhibit are immediately shut down with "but but but, it's just a dog! They don't understand!" Oh yes they fucking do. They understand ENOUGH to exhibit vindictive manipulative behaviour because I've watched it with my mother in laws dog.
She's got a Labrador and whenever her husband is home with the dog, it will do as it's told. When he lets it out in the garden for the toilet before bed, it will go to the toilet.
When he puts the dogs dinner down, he eats it nicely.
When he puts the dog in the back room to bed it just goes to sleep. But when my mother in law or their son take care of this dog, it'll be let out to go to the toilet and even if this mutt is clearly desperate to go as it's been alone for hours, it'II just stand there wagging its tail staring at my mother in law. She will say to it "go to the toilet" (it understands this when her husband says it) but it will ignore her and just stand like a statue staring at her wagging its tail and not go.
This will be for example when me and my husband have visited for a weekend and it'Il be 11pm-midnight before bed. It's like the mutt knows it's the bed time toilet break so it deliberately stalls/takes the piss. Again if she puts him to bed, he will chew their skirting boards and wreck their back room. If she puts his dinner down to eat (he's on meds and has it on his food so it's important he eats it and he normally eats it in .5 of a second when her husband puts it down), he won't eat it and will again, deliberately stall and stand staring at her wagging his tail. Like he thinks it's some sort of game to not do as he's told when he knows the routine.
God I just despise these annoying, manipulative, useless creatures. They're absolutely good for NOTHING. I can't stand them.
"But but but it's just a dog he doesn't
understanddddddddddddd", yeah so you wanna admit he doesn't understand when you're DePrEsSeD and when someone's a BaD pErSoN too then? Fuck dog nutters and their disgusting animals.
