I actually hate it when people want to pet my girl. She doesn't like strangers in general (not unlike me), and because of her breed, kids absolutely love her (because of the movie). I usually have to explain that she's not friendly and not to come near her. It's not a flaw in her. This breed is known to be like that, but it serves my purpose very well because she's excellent protection for me.[/quote]

What kinda dog is she?]]> craftyzits The Living RoomWed, 30 Oct 2024 20:04:54 +0000 http://www.refugees.bratfree.com/read.php?2,450449,450583#msg-450583 Re: Moo realizes people are more into pets than her kidhttp://www.refugees.bratfree.com/read.php?2,450449,450583#msg-450583

Yes, Heather. Everyone prefers a dog over a baby. For obvious reasons, too. If a dog isn't used to people his person will say something to passersby who can still admire the pet. And if we pet the dog because that is okay by the dog/person then there is virtually no danger of the dog puking or crying on us. And it is proven that petting dogs/cats has a soothing effect on people.

And for passersby that aren't dog people there is no obligation for them to do anything anyways. A dog person isn't going to write an article with their butt hurt feelings because their pet wasn't universally admired by the general public.

Most dogs will lap up the attention and seem to be happy most of the time.

I will admit that on very rare occasions, I've seen a very adorable loaf and will smile and tell the parents that their baby is cute, but that's only happened to me twice in my lifetime. Most kids all look the same to me and I couldn't care less.]]> mumofsixbirds The Living RoomMon, 28 Oct 2024 22:35:49 +0000 http://www.refugees.bratfree.com/read.php?2,450449,450580#msg-450580 Re: Moo realizes people are more into pets than her kidhttp://www.refugees.bratfree.com/read.php?2,450449,450580#msg-450580

Bald, squalling, squealing, bad tempered, incontinent, germ spreading, snotty nose, puking tiny humans that can only communicate through loud noises.

Yes, that definitely sounds like something I would walk up to and say, "How adorable." :D]]> kittehpeoples The Living RoomSat, 26 Oct 2024 02:30:02 +0000 http://www.refugees.bratfree.com/read.php?2,450449,450578#msg-450578 Re: Moo realizes people are more into pets than her kidhttp://www.refugees.bratfree.com/read.php?2,450449,450578#msg-450578 freya The Living RoomFri, 25 Oct 2024 23:35:47 +0000 http://www.refugees.bratfree.com/read.php?2,450449,450563#msg-450563 Re: Moo realizes people are more into pets than her kidhttp://www.refugees.bratfree.com/read.php?2,450449,450563#msg-450563
But they have opportunity to look down and see the dog, right?

Any excuse not to admit that your baby just isn't that exciting to normal people. We see other humans all the time, and as breeders are so keen to remind, babies are just other humans. There's nothing exciting or special about that.]]> kittehpeoples The Living RoomWed, 23 Oct 2024 13:34:12 +0000 http://www.refugees.bratfree.com/read.php?2,450449,450557#msg-450557 Re: Moo realizes people are more into pets than her kidhttp://www.refugees.bratfree.com/read.php?2,450449,450557#msg-450557

Too bad she didn't actually like dogs? She could've had one instead and probably would've gotten the attention and validation she so desperately craves. I really hope she doesn't get a dog because it would be nothing more than an accessory to her.

I'm thinking this is the main issue here. For some reason she expected the public to give her attention and validation because baybee and has been bitterly disappointed. Any parent who does it for the attention/validation is going to be a terrible parent.]]> freya The Living RoomSun, 20 Oct 2024 21:59:52 +0000 http://www.refugees.bratfree.com/read.php?2,450449,450556#msg-450556 Re: Moo realizes people are more into pets than her kidhttp://www.refugees.bratfree.com/read.php?2,450449,450556#msg-450556

Most dogs will lap up the attention and seem to be happy most of the time. Babies are so unpleasant that they often cause medically diagnosed conditions that require strong antidepressants and can still lead to a lifetime of regret for the parents. And clearly the public at large (in this case, Los Angeles) have caught on to how unpleasant babies are. The public is becoming sick to death of parents thinking their babies belong everywhere they do and having to deal with clueless parents who drag their babies to inappropriate places. We don't want to smell shit and hear crying when we are out and about. Some of us get migraines from the level of crying of babies. And we also don't want to deal with entitled parents who bitterly complain that everywhere they go in public is not fitted for babies.

Nope, the public is not going to cater to your need for a routine for a baby, we're not going to silence the ambient noise that is a constant because your baby is sleeping, and we're not going to sit idly by while you allow your baby to scream it's head off. Oh and we're not going to be okay with you putting your baby on a counter at a store or with you changing a baby on a dining room table in a restaurant or cafe. There are lots of places that do not have public bathrooms, so all people have to adapt or plan before going into public. If a baby or young children are involved then parents need to plan accordingly.]]> freya The Living RoomSun, 20 Oct 2024 21:57:17 +0000 http://www.refugees.bratfree.com/read.php?2,450449,450465#msg-450465 Re: Moo realizes people are more into pets than her kidhttp://www.refugees.bratfree.com/read.php?2,450449,450465#msg-450465

She all jelly because nobody really cares about looking down at her kid, but they think the dog is gorgeous. That's because people generally love dogs and he probably is a handsome beast. When I walk my dog I get so many compliments on her because she's so pretty and unique (she has a rare mutation that gives her black spots with blue coronas around them like leopard spots). I don't see that happening so often when I see a moo with a stroller.

I note resentment in here as well because she says the dog is "okay looking" (huh?) and she admits she's not a dog lover. To each their own. Too bad she didn't actually like dogs? She could've had one instead and probably would've gotten the attention and validation she so desperately craves.
