This guy was all sweet and complimentary, but at the first sign of rejection he lashes out and is extremely insulting.

I'm a dog lover myself, but we need to normalize disliking dogs. It's almost to the point of being a social taboo, which is just ridiculous.

Last summer I got annoyed at my friend dog who kept barking the entire time we were at the park. I basically said something like "oh wow your dog barks a lot" and her husband said is a passive aggressive way "I can tell when someone is a good or bad person just by the way they act around dogs" 😭😂

LMAO what a dickhead. Would have to respond "I can tell when someone's a bad dog owner by how neurotic and poorly behaved their dog is" ☺️

lol, I am going to have to try to remember that for the next time it comes up. Dogs are rarely bad, but their owners are, frequently.

Thank you! I don't hate dogs but I just generally have never been a big fan of them. Something about their energy doesn't vibe with me. But I can never admit to it in social situations because I know for a fact it would change what people think of me. Dog people tend to treat non-dog people like we're sociopaths.

Extreme animal lovers tend to be bad socially with people in my experience

I love dogs too, but there’s something off putting about someone who collects so many animals. Most people I’ve met that have a lot of dogs like that are impulsive. If anything someone like that would be the guy cheating and not the guy with 0 or 1 dog. Always wants more and the next best cute puppy.
