How good does your dog smell? I changed the blankets in my dogs crate today and had to stop to huff them because they unironically smelled good and comfy. Pure sleepy savory dog smell.

>>4994350
my dog smells like earwax if earwax smelled surprisingly pleasant

>>4994222
it's a fucking Australian demon

I love my french bulldog

>>4994302 (OP)
My cattle dog puppy

>>4994350
Pretty good with a few isolated areas of mild stink. I'm thinking about bathing her anyway because she's starting to get greasy.

>>4994477
Best breed. They're assholes, but they're funny, loving assholes.

>>4994486
What kind of dog do you have? He's the first true cattle dog I've had but I also had a kelpie growing up and they're super similar in terms of temperament, so much so that a lot of people consider them interchangeable.

She enjoyed a lovely snack.

>>4994492
she ate a rat?

dog in the water

>>4994488
Mystery meat. Probably part pit (the smallish cuteish kind, whatever they're called), maybe part lab based on her coloring (and the grease). She's got prick ears though, so I don't know where that could have come from. I'd like to DNA test her but I'm too cheap.

>>4994495
Gopher.

>>4994497
Very nice dog you've got there.

>>4994528
no way more dogs

>>4994533
Absolutely way.

>>4994488
Sorry, I got distracted and only replied to half of your post.

>I also had a kelpie growing up and they're super similar in terms of temperament, so much so that a lot of people consider them interchangeable.
Really? I know they're both drovers, but I thought kelpies were a lot more subdued and closer in temperament to the average herding dog. We don't really have them around here so I wouldn't know.

I've started feeding my new puppy (5 months old) with my dog (2.5 years old)
Is it food guarding if my dog snarls at my puppy when he approaches and pushes him to the ground?
What can I do?
He's snarled at my puppy before with his favourite toy but otherwise seems more relaxed

>>4994567
Separate food/water bowls until they are well accustomed. Feed them in the same room, but not necessarily right next to another. If needed, hang out in the room with them while they eat/drink.

Sounds like the older one is just establishing dominance and ensuring that it eats first.

>>4994350
All dogs start to smell bad after a few days of being bathed this is an objective fact. Just because you have an unhealthy obsession with your "fur baby" dog does not change this.

>>4994525
Nice, I bet she's doing you a favor if you have a garden that the gophers are destroying

>>4994631
Dogs smell good. Simple as.

Oh yeah, its all coming together

My dogs ears smell like flowers and my dogs butt smells like farts. Before you unfairly judge dogs, make sure you're sniffing the right end.

>>4994631
does the dog have
>oily coat
>skin folds
>drooling
>short muzzle
they tend to stink
>single-coat/double-coat that keeps growing like human hair, wiry, curly, or straight
will only smell after months of not bathing them or if their hair starts to matt
>short double coat fur that sheds vigorously
less likely to smell, blows coat twice a year

>>4994679
Some dogs like plush coated german shepherds and huskies legit smell good. On the other hand even dry coated terriers have a noticeable BO that's not very pleasant.

I think it's like humans. some sweat and smell like cheese just from sitting down (indian). some smell like musky onions but only if they exert themselves (europeans). some stay naturally as dry as humanly possible and dont really smell even if they're sweating profusely (japanese).

I rub my dog in coconut oil and take a big sniffa.
I collect his hair in a bag and open it up every now and then to inhale the aroma.

>>4994644
Nope

Dogs smell good. sorry your pappy got SHEPPED for running from the cops and passed on a genetic memory associating trauma with dog smell but to normal people dogs smell very comfy.

use your head. dogs smell bad but half the country has them indoors and there have been house dogs going back to ur and cave dogs for tens of thousands of years before that? No man, dogs smell good. You have inherited an aversion to their smell because your pappy got bit running from the cops. Genetic memory for scents is a real thing.

How do I break the news to my mom? She's terrified of pitbulls and even though she's had this dog for two years, he's fully grown, and has no behavioral problems she might freak out and return him.

>>4994744
Easy. Just show her this.

>>4994710
/pol/schizo cope

How do I know if my dog can tolerate the heat? I have one who can't and she lets me know. The other will walk with me until she gets a heat stroke.

Don't you mean "gonadectomy is banned globally except in cases of medical necessity"?

>brachecyphaly, achondroplastia, C189G tails, bow legs, all these conditions are cured through gene editing/breed bans
We could fix this today, but kennel clubs won't pull their heads out of their asses and denounce torture breeders, and vets won't refuse to take on dysgenic cash cows as clients.

>dogs over 25 pounds need a license to own
25 is too far into "real dog" territory. Make it 10.

>>4994942
Bro just foster senior dogs or start a dog sanctuary instead of nvking yourself.

>>4994921
Based
If you need an argument for eugenics just look at certain breeds of working dogs eg cattle dogs, bordie collies or jack russells

>>4994946
>gonadectomy is banned globally except in cases of medical necessity
I wouldn’t be surprised if you need some kind of license to own an intact dog, let alone breed one in the next 20 years. Gene editing + artificial wombs will probably make it so your dog is born sterile and raised by a robot dog until it hits 8 weeks.

>>4994946
>Don't you mean "gonadectomy is banned globally except in cases of medical necessity"?
No matter how well trained an intact male dog is, they're significantly more dangerous than a neutered one.

I can only support this for females, for their health. Spay incontinence is hell especially when the two meds for it either give your dog a heart attack and severe neurosis, or basically undo half the hormonal effects of the spay and cause hair loss, ergo wasting your time, money, and making your dog suffer for no reason

>>4995067
leave the nuts alone!!

>>4995065
>I wouldn’t be surprised if you need some kind of license to own an intact dog, let alone breed one
You already do in some places. New laws are written all the time.
https://www.akc.org/legislative-alerts/

>>4995067
Neutering increases anxiety and anxious dogs are more likely to bite. Bite statistics are misleading because they don't take ownership into account. Dogs aren't dangerous unless they're raised by retards or the breed is unsuitable to be kept as a pet.

Males lose a part of their souls when they're neutered. I've seen it happen.

>>4995117

Been a while. How you doin?

What makes dogs afraid of thunder? It's an awful trait and I want to make sure I don't induce it if I ever raise a puppy.

>>4995204
Loud as fuck noise unexpectedly, think of it as if you were just going through life and suddenly someone set off a firework outside your window, especially since most dogs aren't really going to draw the connection between "heavy rain" and "possibility of thunder". It's less of a specific trait and more a behavior present in more anxious dogs.

>>4995204
You should make loud ass noises and bang pots and all that stuff and then reward him for not getting scared. Mine was basically unbothered by almost everything as a puppy. He had some weird fear period stuff, but that passed.

>Dog keeps trying to eat my citronella plant
>Buy bitter apple spray

Yo this dude is literal psycho

>>4995228
Use an electric fence.

Kibble is a scam.
And so is a raw diet.
RETVRN TO TABLE SCRAPS!

>>4995263
Ohhhh very good. Fishe for the dogu. Yes.

Who made the barkbuddies AI memes?

>>4995266
Why?

>>4995263
But this guy fed his dog raw fish as is tradition.

>>4995266
I think it was leo's owner, based on the cringe level. He probably did all the AI memes like the crash your truck dogs.

Why the fuck would you chop your dog's balls off bro. That's so fucked. Imagine your dog thinking you guys are best buds and you just get his fucking balls removed. What kind of sick fuck does this. My dog is a very healthy pure bred and one day I will allow him to breed with another healthy dog for the benefit of the breed

>>4995277
did you just assume my dogs gender identity?

>>4995277
They come chopped from the pound. I can't do shit about that.

>>4995276
I didn't do the crash your truck ones, but I did do all the dog parade ones and the gsd at the computer ones. I don't think it's right to tell someone to die or any of that stuff even if they are a despicable person.

Those memes were all bangers if you understand the context of why they were created/used. I mean cmon. Look at this masterpiece.

Lol.

They're hilarious, not cringe, and based. Do not tell me otherwise. You are simply lying.

Last one. That shit was so funny. Good times..

>>4995266
BUT WHY? Was someone pretending to be me again?

>>4995276
You know snitches get stitches round these parts, right?

>>4995300
Why do you think someone was pretending to be you?

Also the crash your track memes really looked like the same gens. Was it the basset guy? Heather?

>>4995302
I think it was basset, but I can't confirm. I don't think Heather partook in the AI meme front of the war.

This one rent free guy has pretended to be me multiple times and posted his sick fantasies on /trash/. Of course it gets basically zero attention and then he links it on here to try and get eyes on it.

>>4995305
/trash/!? If you think you're being implicated as a /trash/ poster why implicate poor marcies owner instead of saying you dont know? And why think this has anything to do with /trash/? Looks like cat vs dog namefag drama to me. They're obviously planning on calling you a cringe AIslopper. /trash/, who would bring that up?

>>4995308
You asked me who was impersonating me and I explained to you who was impersonating me and where.
I can't confirm who made the crash your truck memes, but there were only really 2 other bark buddies. Maybe it was Heather, maybe it was Marcie, maybe it was some random based chud. Like I said I can't confirm.

This was sort of before the ultra gay and incredibly cringe cat vs dog board wide console wars. /dog/ specific "drama". In reality it was just one guy having a nuclear level meltdown and everyone laughing at him, but whatever. You can call it what you want.

I'll dig up the threads in the archive in a bit, so you can learn a lil history. The threads are so damn funny. Especially the dirty dog saga. And the Janny accusations. Lol.

>>4995312
>You asked me who was impersonating me
No I asked
>Why do you think someone was pretending to be you?
The rest of that sounds like you're off your meds. This insanity is tiring. Good night!
