Kids like dog's what?

Your first dog is the one that trains you, your second the one you train, the third you hunt with and the fourth buries you.

pets give a shoulder to cry on and someone who will love you unconditionally and that can be very impotent for a kid

The real mystery is why they felt like "dogs" needed an apostrophe while "kids" did not.

Aimanfire
If I ever have a kid, I need to get a pet as well, so I have less trouble entertaining said kid.
TheAccursedHamster
I do agree, barring certain situations kids should grow up with pets. and I mean PETS, not "have you love them then butcher them for food 1
TheAccursedHamster
in order to teach them fucked up self serving jerk-off lesson" situation.

Often (not always, but often) having pets makes kids learn empathy, responsibility and the ability to care for something. 1/2
AgamemnonsMemes
important things to learn early. Do you NEED pets to learn that? No.. but it helps.

Captain Picard also teaches these things, he was my Mr Rogers

Kitty cats too??

Had no pet, but it was dirty enough where I grow up
CotterPyke
Youre RIGHT i read a study" that claimed farm kids had fewer disease then other kinds (which makes sense-they're exposed to dung and hay) 2/
CotterPyke
my dad was a farm kid, lived to 86 and almost never sick, either.
ladyidiot
I was a farm kid who ate a lot of dirt and got dinged up a lot. Can confirm - I never get sick.
WittyCleverUsername
Always had 2 dogs and a cat. Ended up allergic to cats and everything outside! I ended up not being able to touch any of them.. devastating
WittyCleverUsername
/2 and yea we definitely kept them! I just had to keep them out of my room and they were towelled off after going outside. No touchy tha cat
DrewBerg
True. I might not have so many allergies if i grew up with a pup or two
WhereCanYouSeeLions
Didn't work for me. I had dogs throughout my entire childhood. Still got tons of allergies. I am, however, allergic to cats.
aninvisiblemaniac
allergies are a different ballgame

What a coincidence! I also hate baseball
MrSmilingDeath
I read that as "if I grew a pup or two".

PerryCoxMD
My 6 month old REALLY wants to play with our dog. She does not want to play with my son.
CotterPyke
well can ya blame her??! The dog's less likely to bite
PerryCoxMD
We adopted her and she is old. She just wants to be left alone.
CotterPyke
oh... well maybe another dog then? two dogs?
PerryCoxMD
Our other dog will let him pet him sometimes. Most times he ignores the fact that my son exists.
Ghastek
Yeah I wanted a pup for my daughter until my in laws dog bit her face unprovoked....
Cheomesh
When I was in elementary,one of my classmates had his younger brother torn up by the family dog (retriever I think).
Ghastek
I had a roommate that had to get surgery from a bite from a chocolate lab.
bluetractor
Can I ask how the child's face was in biting range of a dog? "Provoking" isn't always pulling or hitting, maybe she was just too close and
bluetractor
nobody noticed the dog was uncomfortable. Even a small kid would seem pretty big to a chihuahua. Not blaming, just speculating.
Ghastek
She is 16 months old and was sitting next to itThe dog turned to bite her in the face. She had been around the dog plenty before.
pourquoipas
:( I hope she's ok! Can I ask what kind of dog it was?
Ghastek
She is ok. May be some scaring unfortunately. It was a chihuahua.
TheThirteenthDoctor
Chihuahuas are fairly known to be aggressive, and often it is because the owners don't train them as well/ they are less intelligent. (1/2)
TheThirteenthDoctor
For kids its good to have a medium/ large dog with high intelligence from a breed known to have good temperament, also training is key.
pourquoipas
Poor thing! And how scary for you. We got a dog before our baby, never together unsupervised though.
Ghastek
They were always supervised. I was sitting right next to them. The dog just lunged for her face out of no where.
pourquoipas
Jesus. And no warning signs eh? Like dog was always happy around baby? Ours is so chill around the baby but stories like this do worry me...

Brant is my actual irl name so the "good dogs" meme has been fun for me

Because dogs are best.

I like birds BUT can't stand caging them.

Most people get huge cages or even build an aviary if they are aware of how to take care of them, you're also supposed to let them 1/2
