This used to be a wolf.

This still is a wolf.

He's such a joyful creature, he doesn't realize there's something wrong with him

He is now a woof.
Still 75% wolf, not too shabby.

What humans have done to the majestic wolf is criminal.

There are still lots of good dogs and always will be. Purebred fags just arent going for them because working lines are 1: typically too impure to show and sell for big bucks unless you have a hyper-neurotic, borderline nonfunctional turbowagie like those $20k sheepdogs 2: hard to impossible to own if you're a sub-110 IQ wagie, and "normal ass dog" lines like landrace huskies, carolina dogs, dingos, etc are just a more adaptable less autistic version of working dogs and often have superior intelligence and even more energy.

>>5014138
you're high on your own farts if you recommend anyone to own a dingo as a pet

>>5014147
Dingos make great pets, you just have to
>be relatively high iq
>have high empathy and great observation skills
>be moderately educated re: the current understanding of animal behavior
>genuinely believe that animals do, in fact, have emotions, inner worlds, and rudimentary short and long term plans and structure your approach around this
>be able to resist the urge to descend into violent ape dominance behaviors
>have 6+ completely free hours a day and a close relationship with trustworthy peope who are as naturally superior as you in case of hardship

>>5014159
how many dingos have you had as a housepet?
they have been feral dogs for thousands of years.
it's like taking an african wildcat kitten and expecting to get a ragdoll half a year later, abbos (like north east asians with wolf pups) will often take their puppies and then return them back into the wild as adolescents because they are incapable of bonding or cooperating with humans.
they MIGHT be fine with the ONE person they spent the most time with, like a wolf, but you get a far more instinctual/fearful creature than a real domestic dog, ie husky.

>>5014163
Where did I say expecting it to be a ragdoll was part of the deal

And lots of people have dingos. They're just smarter than you and sitting more comfortably than me.

>>5014164
your answer is 0.
it's a mark of stupidity to dislike fully domestic animals and want some "semi-wild" dog that will go crazy and bite you because it heard a strange noise/got spooked by a stranger.
no amount of socialization during puppyhood can overcome thousands of years spent in the bush. you can be the next furry to get mauled by a wolfdog if you want, that's fine by me.
ragdolls were mentioned because 90% of cats are kittens taken from some feral or semi-feral moggie street cat/colony. whereas most domestic dogs seldom have feral/stray dog lineage outside of the third world.

That's a wolfdog at most

Most things people more intelligent than you do for fun are called "stupid" and even "social ills" by people as dumb as you (and dumber).

>>5014179
>I'm enlightened by my own intelligence, I can raise a dingo in polite society
wow and a 4channer too? you must be so successful, what with being able to spend 6+ completely free hours a day with your imaginary dingo and all

>>5014183
>oh my tradcath, this is fedora tipping. huskies are much better pets than dingos because they are easy for a retard like me!
cope seethe and sneed, huscuck.

>>5014186
>actually owning dogs is cringe, here's why I larp as a dingo owner on /an/ instead. did I mention that I'm smart?

NGL huscucks are coping pretty hard rn

Sometimes this board makes me feel like shit for ever owning a dog. Are there any dog breeds that won't make me feel bad for subjecting it to the pain of existence?

>>5015159
Mutts or any breed that's not very fucked up by "breed standards", for example the retro pug Is mostly okay.

>>5015159
Everything is going to be ok

>>5015159
Husky

>>5015159
akita inu from japan

They can still breathe and don't suffer with joint problems compared to "healthier" breeds. The problem is when they exert themselves, that is when the nasal cavity struggles to maintain full lung capacity. But unless you are leaving them out in the sun or hiking up a trail that isn't going to happen. Throw in the fact that they are one of the longer living dog breeds and you soon realize that the health issues is highly overstated. Get a godd breeder, feed them good food, keep them at a healthy weight, keep them nice and cool and do nice walks. Same advice for just about every dog. The greatest sin the pug bears on it's shoulders is being a feisty shit

That is neither wolf or true to what actual early canines looked like. Shit taste

Shit.

Get a sighthound like a whippet or lurcher. They are some of the most healthy and relaxed dogs you can get due to the amount of outbreeding done to keep them fit for racing or coursing. They are one of the few "breeds" where pedigree breeding practices is frowned apon. Plus the risk of negative breeds being mixed in is minimal as hyper agressive breeds like pitbulls do not conform to a sighthound frame so they are easy to weed out. If you are fine with rescues there are also tons of ex-racing hound kennels with greyhounds to choose from.

>>5014164
If you want a dingo just get a cattle dog. Or a cattle dog cross dingo. Pure dingos can be dangerous.

>>5015230
Sighthounds are just unintelligent huskies. Comically unintelligent. They struggle to understand stairs.

They are nothing like huskies. As for stairs I have never seen that personally
