>have to jump through 100 moronic hoops to buy a dog in Ontario, or risk adopting one that was horrifically abused
Thanks, animal rights activists.
Unironically self-filtered from buying a dog, because I'm not signing a 10 year contract and paying $2,000 for one.
Can't even get a hamster in a 20 gallon fish tank without morons hounding you with IT'S ANIMAL ABUSE UNLESS YOU GIVE IT 2 ACRES OF INDOOR SPACE.
I'm buying a Roomba instead, it's a fricking nightmare to actually obtain a pet anymore.
I think dogs should be banned from apartments
>Can't even get a hamster in a 20 gallon fish tank without morons hounding you with IT'S ANIMAL ABUSE UNLESS YOU GIVE IT 2 ACRES OF INDOOR SPACE.
Are you that mega autist that REEEEE'd for months, reposting the same whiney shit about how literally everyone you asked on every board told you that you needed more space for a hamster?
Same deal here. You don't NEED a pet. And by all accounts, you would be a shit pet owner, even if you were so rich that $2000 was pocket change. Cry more.
What do you worms have to gain from simping for tyrannical government mandates anyway
Are you lot on the payroll
Did you expect sympathy on Wauf for your plight? lol Newsflash: the reasons no one likes you in person are still valid online. But here, no one is going to be polite about it.
do you expect the state to give you sympathy for yours?
>projection: the post
You redditor tourist types always out yourself as midwits.
good
Go find a puppy on an indian reserve
Tell me more about this.
Can I get anything else at an Indian reserve, other than maybe raped?
yjk
More info here: https://www.souldog.org/
They have free puppies and almost free tobacco. It's worth a look.
>Go find a puppy on an indian reserve
move out
They are right, though. Animal ownership should be significantly reduced and given only to the toppest of tiers of good owners. Too many morons out there, anon.
What's wrong with adopting one who was horribly abused? Those dogs need good owners more than anyone.
If you mean you're worried the dog will be impossible to housetrain and will just shit on the floor her entire life you can actually ask the shelter for a dog who's already been trained not to go on the floor.
I do agree government regulations on pets go too far. I don't like how you legally need to keep getting rabies vaccine boosters for a housecat in Texas her entire life now. Would have preferred keeping my cat inside and unbothered by vet visists unless she actually gets sick vs. taking her to get injected again every year.
>every year
Unless your particular municipality specifically requires otherwise, most places in Texas allow a three year interval between rabies boosters now.
You need to get the three year kind for that to be allowed. The one they gave my kitten at the shelter was the one year kind so the expiration date on it is some time in 2024. I don't know why they use a one year kind of vaccine still when there's a three year kind available but it also sounds like a lot of vets might only stock the one year kind too.
>toddler raises arm the same way the old owner did when he would hit it
>it clamps down on their neck in panic
>IF U DONT WANT TO WASTE $2k NOW NO DOGGGGG!!!!!
Oh yes brilliant. Wipe out a bit of peoples emergency vet savings. Greedy fricks.
>ONLY THE RICHEST WHITEST PEOPLE BORN INTO WEALTH SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO OWN ANIMALS BECAUSE ONLY THEY CAN DO ANYTHING RIGHT
where have i heard this before
COLONIAL ENGLAND?
This is an attitude that gets the poorest whitest people to take up arms within 100 years.
TAKE ONE FRICKING GUESS
WHY EVERY GUN CONTROL PUSH STARTS WITH THE TOOLS OF REBELLION, AND STOPS SHORT OF THE GUNS ACTUALLY USED IN CRIME?
>WHATS WRONG WITH ADOPTING A 50-100LB TRAUMATIZED ANIMAL WITH TEETH
Ask the 30 people who died in pitbull attacks last year. Go, line up every single one of those 30 coffins, have the family present, and tell them "its ok, its actually pretty rare, abused pitbulls still need homes".
And while you're at it stop by the 1 german shepherd victim and 1 rottweiler victim
So don't get a pitbull and don't get a large dog. Usually the shelter will let you know if the dog has behavioral issues anyway. And you spend a little time interacting with the dog before adopting.
I'm not a communist, but well fricking said, friend.
>yt out of nowhere
>pol
what an interesting board. thanks for showing me anon, even if it is a little out of nowhere to do so. Anyways, back to dogs
>implying pibbles need to be abused to rip the face off a toddler
>or risk adopting one that was horrifically abused
Shelter dogs are usually good. You get to see how they act around other dogs and can get a good idea how friendly they are before making any commitment. My previous dog was a shelter dog and he was great. I picked the 2 I have now up from off the road as puppies and they're good dogs as well. Personally, I don't think buying a dog is a good thing just considering how most puppy mills are run. The 2 I have now were tossed out by some piece of shit breeder at 3 weeks old and basically left to die
cant you just pick something from the street? some trash eating dog accustomed to being hungry will fit a broke frick like you
>Find someone with puppies
>buy one
Whew that was hard
Unironically is, anon.
Facebook banned animal listings, Kijiji is in the process of doing so too / all other owners already LARP as breeders.
You're not ready for a dog if you don't feel like expending money.
The vast majority of humans throughout the vast majority of history paid zero dollars for their animals and everything was just fine.
everything was fine until people moved from farms to cities
harder to abuse and neglect an animal if it has access to nature at a rural area, you can't expect all apartment dwellers to have the effort to give their pets an acceptable life
I'm not a city-slicking soý-drinker though, boy. Either exempt me, or get rid of the rules, period.
Alright, but how does spending 2k for a piece of paper help the dog?
>can't afford $2000
>for a pet that will cost $10000 over its whole life
based government for filtering you tbh
Bootlicker scum
Kidnap a coyote.
