So I came home from work this morning...

[The Mad Monk]

So you're going for a run and two Rottweilers start running at you. You're saying you puff your chest out and stand tall and they'll run away with their tail between their legs?

What stand? You charge them waving your arms and screaming your best war whoop.

Wimp.

[Hauldren Collider]

Dogs chase if you run. They just stand there and look stupid if you turn around and face them unless they are trained guard or attack dogs.

[Riesstiu IV]

What case? I'm just saying I don't get how people like dogs. I ****ing hate dogs. I've been chased, attacked, or even just barked at angrily far too many times to like dogs. I know to stay far away from these WOLVES.

It seems that dogs, like the women around you, know an awkward creep when they see one.

[Egbert]

Cats & dogs tend to have very good instincts about people.

They always love me.

They are being all nicey picey because you are carrying a bloodied seal club. Until they can escape to safety anyway.

[Cort Haus]

Cats like me but dogs don't, generally. Or if dogs do like me they still want to get in my face or hump my leg or something gross.

No, I don't get on with dogs. I love cats though.

[Lonestar]

So I took him over this morning to the property management office, and the property manager knew who he belonged to. It seems the owner is notorious for leaving his patio door open when he goes to work(he lives on the first floor and just walks out the back), and he has a another dog that is bigger than the allowed size limited that the Property manner waived because she's an animal lover. In addition to just leaving the door open, the PM has reason to believe the owner is generally neglectful of the animals(although I could have told her that, the dog was badly in need of a grooming). In the past when she's approached the resident about that he's relayed that he believes he's being a good pet owner simply giving them a home, and at one point said "Well if they cause *you* so much trouble maybe I'll just get rid of them."




I told her that if she thinks that he is going to ditch them, come tell me. I'll adopt the dog, he was astonishingly well behaved for such a neglected animal. Pretty much sat in the kitchen with the most noise being made from his nails clack-clack-clacking on the floor.

[Lonestar]

Al, you're not helping your case man.

What breed of dog is Oreo, do you know Lonestar?

Pretty sure it's a Shi Tzu. I commented on FB how well behaved it was being, and a buddy who has owned two of the dogs says the breed has a great temperment, the problem is that people associate them with little yippy dogs like Chihuahuas and Yorkies. I tell you, I would rename it if it were mine. I'm thinking "Ewok" or "Chewie"/

[Lonestar]

I was almost killed. You have two stray crazed Rottweilers or Pitt Bulls or whatever they were after you.

Even the little dogs, when I see them, they start yelping and trying to bite my ankles.

Canis Lupus. They're the same species as wolves. That little dog Lonestar found is genetically the same as the grey wolf. It looks a lot different but it's still a wolf.

Dogs are either at your throat or at your feet(you know, like Russians). You just need to not show fear and assert your dominance.

I've always kind of wanted a dog, but they are high maintenance and I probably won't be able to get one for a few years. I took this quiz and it said based on what I would want a "welsh corgi" would do well. What do you think of Shi Tzus (I figure you are a dog person) and the welsh corgi?

NB: I know next to nothing about dogs except that they are cute and furry and generally friendly.

[MikeH]

A Welsh Corgi?!

[Al B. Sure!]

Aren't those the dogs the Queen has?

[MikeH]

Yes.

[Al B. Sure!]

Is that why you find it funny?

[MikeH]

Partly. And they are a very feminine dog. But so are Shi Tzus.

[Hauldren Collider]

A Welsh Corgi?!

Alright I confess I was trying to see if Mobius would say anything. But thats actually what showed up on the quiz.
