• Dogs: They Are Awesome
    485 replies, posted
I have a Staffordshire Bull Terrier, he's pretty nice. I agree, dogs are awesome. I have a good photo of him on Christmas day, but I have no way of getting it on the computer right now. :(
I have a beagle rat terrier mix and a red lab mixed with something else :3
[QUOTE=Doom Dude;16714360][b]1.[/b] First of all, this is not a thread at how cats suck, not cats allowed. [b]2.[/b]You may ask, Doom Dude, why are dogs so awesome. Well first of all they just are, but they are useful, very useful. Hearing: The frequency range of dog hearing is approximately 40 Hz to 60,000 Hz, which means that dogs can detect sounds far beyond the upper limit of the human auditory spectrum. Eighteen or more muscles can tilt, rotate, raise, or lower a dog's ear. A dog can identify a sound's location much faster than a human can, as well as hear sounds at four times the distance. Smell: The olfactory bulb in dogs is roughly forty times bigger than the olfactory bulb in humans, relative to total brain size, with 125 to 220 million smell-sensitive receptors. The bloodhound exceeds this standard with nearly 300 million receptors.Dogs can discriminate odors at concentrations nearly 100 million times lower than humans can. Dogs can be for many things, useful things, apart from the obvious of being a household pet. War Dogs Dogs can be used in warfare as Scouts (finding mines and traps), Trackers (finding hidden snipers and solders (even soldiers underwater)), and Sentries. Police Dogs: These dogs can chase and hold suspects, find missing persons or objects. A growing number of forces outfit dogs with bulletproof vests (and some even go so far as to make the dogs sworn officers, with their own police badges and IDs). Detection Dogs: These dogs sniff out drugs, illegal substances, firearms and other objects. I will add more soon[/QUOTE] ^^^pls don't... 1. Why say this sentence, it's nonsense. I don't know what it says, "Wer'e not saying cat's suck in this thread, no cats allowed in this thread"? 2. You forgot to mention [i]some other things[/i] about dogs: [quote] DOGSHIT: A common sight in parks (and on the bottom of shoes :ssj:) and the backyards of dog-owners. A dog will crap roughly 5-10 times a day, depending on the dog and it's diet. As well as being a nuisance, dog owners who do not clean up their pet's buisness can be in for a fine, or be simply looked down upon by everyone else. SMELL: No not the sense FOR the dog, the emission FROM the dog. A simple expression can represent this: D+W=S² Or for those without brains: Dog + Water = SMELL x STINK. When a wet dog enters your home, you will expect to spend hundreds of dollars on carpet cleaning, and/or have your home reek of the sickening scent for the rest of it's structural life. 'Nuff said! NOISE POLLUTION: Ever walk down a lane, and then suddenly a loud yap/bark shoots through your whole nervous system? Ever heard the whole neighborhood's worth of dogs barking or howling? Then i've explained enough. PISS: Dogs piss on everything and anything, THIS INCLUDES LEGS. Detection Dogs: These bastards are simply bastards. You can't have a bud within a mile of one. Thankfully though, the method of training them invlolves them being administered the substance, until they are addicted to it. Then they are sent to the airport where they withdraw for a few hours, before going on-duty and chasing what they want: drugs. Hopefully some animal welfare groups will put a stop to these sniffer dogs. HAZARD: Dogs are a major trip/crash/accident/mauling hazard, i have seen countless incidents where a stupid mutt has bowled someone over, or ran RIGHT in front of someone on a bike/scooter/swing/car and even a wheelchair. It doesn't take much brain to see how dangerous dogs really are, just look at their teeth. Just because it's trained doesn't mean that the dog does not have a free-mind. If it sees someone it hates, it will run up and bark at them. And if the person walks or runs away, the dog will attack. So your'e forced to sit there with some mongrel barking the fuck out of you, and you can't defend yourself in fear of being prosecuted. Chew and swallow THEM apples, Because no matter how much people say something is awesome, there IS a dark side, and the wary WILL point that out.[/quote] tl;dr: Dogs shit lots, smell bad, are noisy, and are dangerous. Be wary of this! Finally stop over-endorsing dogs, i've heard it enough, we all know this shit already, it's not worthy of the 30th thread saying the same plain that is said in [u]EVERY[/u] thread on dogs. Theres my cons, now my pro: IMHO Alsations are pretty cool, if i were to get a dog, theres my choice. But first: automatic dog-shit and smell control...

I had the most fuckwin awesome dog, But he got old and my mum was too lazy to look after him, and i was seriously sick, so i couldn't either, so we had to give him away. I cannot even emphasize how awesome this dog was. When I get a dog of my own, I'm going to to call it Jed II, because that's how I roll.
why have pussy ass cats when you have manly dogs?
[QUOTE=privatesmily;22946270]why have pussy ass cats when you have manly dogs?[/QUOTE] While I agree with you; Where I live i'm not allowed dogs. And my mum loves pets. Therefore, I have 3 fucking cats that seem to think my bedroom is the perfect battleground for their piss-based turf warfare.

Juniors going to the vet in 30 minutes, ill post what happens when he comes back.
Even though I'm a cat person, if i were to get a dog it'd be a Samoyed. [img]http://www.samoyedpuppies.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/samoyed_puppies_1.jpg[/img] ain't it adorable. [editline]09:43PM[/editline] Part of the reason i'm a cat person is that some jerks like to leave their dog-doo unattended on the footpath, and somehow it always gets in my bike chains. Don't be a jerk, clean up after your dog
My dog is an obese Beagle. He wasn't always fat but since he turned ten two years ago he's become less active than he used to be. He still likes to play with his favorite ball and he loves a good game of tug-a-war. I love him more than anything :3: I'll post pics when I find my camera.

The only Dog I like, is the Husky, otherwise, I'm a Cat man. :v:
If I were to get a dog, it would have to be the Akita Inu.
Because of a certain girl, I may have to fight my phobia of dogs. I'm lucky she just has a French bulldog (?).
I still like my cat more than dogs :3:
Dogs rule. Cats are shit.
I just realized I don't have too many pictures of my dog. On the left is T.J.(Rhodesian Ridgeback) and on the right is Cooper.

I'm not really a fan of dogs myself, though the big calm ones are pretty cool. The disliking of dogs comes from those calfbiting little fuckers who bounce when they yip at you. Huskies are pro, along with Malamutes.

Dogs may be awesome but they're a bitch to take care of.
That really depends on the dog. Feed dog. Take dog out to the shitter. If it's nice weather go to a beach or dogpark, talk with some folks and see your dog have the time of its life. Chill out with dog being bros and shit.
