Tfw I wanted a dog. Loved Dalmations the most. Parents never got me a dog. They kept saying it would be a phase. Still thinking about it a decade and more later. Didn't even get to have a Dalmation in the Nintendogs game. Still love animals and Dalmations. At least they regret not getting me a dog.
When I was a kid, around when the live action 101 Dalmations movie got made one of my neighbors adopted a Dalmation for their kids and it was the most psychotic dog I have ever been around, they definitely weren't able to take proper care of it.
I remember it attacked someone at one point too but it didn't get put down over it.
Breaks my heart. Dalmatians are expensive, not only buying one but also raising one not unlike most pedigree dog breeds. I would see these fine breed dogs just running around like common street mutts on dangerous high-traffic areas just cause pleb junior or princess lost interest in the poor dog and these fat retard Hispanics (I lived in a hispanic region back then) got tired or broke caring for it.
There was even a PSA on the local TV stations. It still breaks my heart thinking about it and it dissapoints me that it even happens in a more "developed" country like Japan.
This movie created an ecological disaster. They imported thousands of raccoons and when they matured and got cranky they released them the way the kid in the movie did. As a result raccoons are now an invasive species in Japan and have done a lot of damage to Shinto temples, among other things
>, why the fuck did they import that? imagine being the guy selling them the coons
Money
Humans are destroying their planet for money. Always for money

They used to sell baby turtles in cheap tiny plastic tanks in the 70s. A lot less information that moves a lot slower. But yeah, it is kind of amazing, looking back.
That's actually directly why they got released. >main character releases his pet raccoon when it acts wild as an adult >japanese people see that and decide to do it too because their raccoons are acting wild as adults
This happens to many normies. Being influenced by movies or games is just what happens. Like finding nemo making people buy fish and game of thrones making people buy wolfdogs.
> Like finding nemo making people buy fish
KEK the whole premise of the movie is that nemo was separated from his father because someone wanted to add fish to his tank
I remember back in the 90s when the 101 Dalmatians and those Taco Bell chihuahua ads came out retarded plebs bought those breeds because their spoiled lil shits and dumb ho gfs bawwed about wanting one, only to be tossed out in the streets like some old broken toy.
The Harry Potter movies lead to a number of abused, malnourished, and dead owls showing up to wild bird rehabs. Fucking idiots thinking owls make good pets. Still get a rare person coming in and asking how to get a pet owl (or raptor), though I suspect they are more inspired by videos of those terrible Japanese owl cafes than Harry Potter.
Fuck this owl pet shit i hate it to no end
Even more so those who defend or encourage having an owl as a pet
There was one time i was in a pet store and this woman came in asking the emplee for food for her owl that she said outloud for the whole store to hear
Its only an object to brag about no other owl owner is any different
If you truly love a wild animal you wouldn't keep it as a pet
If I had the land for it I'd definitely try falconing.
I live in a subdivision though so I suspect I'd just get angry people showing up because hawkbro tried to take their small dogs and children.
no but after reading 20,000 leagues under the sea i began to develop a passionate hatred for sperm whales
Raine the dog
Post the rest.
what type of dog is that dog
Harvest Moon implanted an urge to raise farm animals into me from a very young age. So, now I'm trying to do that, so that's fun.

Good, they deserve it.
Pokémon contributed in making me an animal lover more than any anime or manga with actual realistic pets.
bullshit they already have their own racoon dog
They have both native raccoon dogs and invasive American coons that that take over the racoon dog's niche.
well i searched it up and yes you are right, why the fuck did they import that? imagine being the guy selling them the coons

>raccoons are terrible pets
its my dream pet since years, those people just have wrong expectations, like with many other pets.
Raccoons are good pets. My dad had one growing up in rural Alabama. It would lay on his shoulders during supper and he'd feed it crumbs.
What's wrong with pet coons? How are they bad/difficult?
They turn into destructive assholes when they go though coon puberty
you are not supposed to cage them
its funny because the whole point of that anime was that raccoons dont make good pets
That's actually directly why they got released.

After watching finding nemo I wanted to get a sea horse. Good thing it was impossible for me.

this, it's seldom good for the animals.

No one said they were smart.

Sometimes I hate kids and family

They are not a good pet for the average retard but im SPECIAL so i can definitely take care of one.
Says every average retard ever.

The dogs in GoT were Norwegian elk hounds, not wolf dogs
