Nope, cause if it does, I'll kill the damn thing right in front of the owner. I just remember America WITHOUT all the "mental issues"/weak-assed "neediness" when folks had Pets...NOT "family member surrogates" due to lack mental wellness.

There are dogs that are trained to help truly disabled or medical alert dogs. Like if someone collapses they know where that person’s medicine is or if a person’s blood sugar is plummeting. Those dogs really are amazing and more helpful than a lot of humans that have no idea what to do in those situations. I agree about the ones being used for mental health or emotional support. Those are not the same in my eyes. But the ones used for the visual/hearing impaired or medical purposes, I 100% am on board with those dogs being with their person because they are actually assisting their owner.

Heh… 😈 …tru dat! 😉🤙🏼🧡

I went back to check a discussion earlier today that dealt with … errr… religious rites of passage. They struck me as somewhat unsavory but the discussion was historically accurate with linked references.

But mollusk jewelry?

Where I work, one of the other therapists brings her certified dog once per week and it’s been proven to enhance her patient’s performance because they are more motivated to fully participate. I have always been fascinated with how amazing animals in this world can be and our connection with them. We were meant to coexist with all of the earth’s creatures and whenever I see the ones that are overly aggressive that just lets me know their owner is a POS. Most animals do not naturally attack unless provoked, hungry, or protecting. They aren’t humans with complex brains and a million different reasons for being aggressive. Pets, and most animals in general for that matter, are usually very predictable in their behavior.

I AGREE...100%! Trained "Service Dogs" are Real, Necessary and Needed.

The OTHER Million animals loose on planes, trains and ENCLOSED places with food, drink, and folks like me that DON'T want to be around anything that CAN'T wipe its own ASS and is SITTING on the same seat as a human (like in that original video?)...

F#(% THAT!

*oh...and DON'T invite me over to eat in your house...'cause you DON'T realize it...but it DOES smell like dog/cat $HIT!
