so this is kinda petty because it doesn't hurt anybody and seems to warm people's hearts, but i hate those posts where they're like "this dog got to meet their favorite character/toy" because the dog has no idea that's how you perceive someone dressed up in a costume. they just think oh wow a human in a really weird outfit! this is a new experience! i enjoy new experiences because i am a predator!
idk anthropomorphizing dogs just bothers me as someone who raises and trains them
#i absolutely love dogs but the 'fur baby' attitude really rubs me the wrong way#it's an animal! animals are wonderful and full of personality! but they're not human and having custody of an animal isn't parenthood#(what we do have in common are a lot of sleepless nights and cleaning up effluvia in early days#so i often bond with parents about cleaning a constant stream of poop and vomit with brand new puppies/humans)
