The Pup does love the camera ...
Ugh never mind. Can't do it. I'd rather make a success of my business.
It's sick how people use the little ones they took responsibility for, for pecuniary benefits. Expecting companionship and love is acceptable, nothing else. Seeing a huge uptick in Instagram reels about how their pet is sick and needs funds urgently. Very clearly scams. Wonder how many animals in genuine need are missing out because of these thieves.
Have been reading stories about reactive dogs like the Pup, people insisting that they should all be put down and not allowed to breed. In fact, this was said about all dogs who aren't 100% obedient, which is such a mean thought. Like show me a perfect human

I tell my parents to think of the Pup as a neurodivergent child - if he had been my human son, we wouldn't have tried to get rid of him, right?
I would rather have this one scratch or bite me once or twice a day than him becoming a colourless stuffed toy (I know some dogs like that who are basically a part of the furniture, it's really sad). In the last few weeks he has started trying to give me kisses back

Only he hasn't yet learnt that his teeth aren't required
And then there's Smegs who adopted a dog just to pretend connections
Was going to say making videos might encourage her to take good care of the dogs, but then I remembered the Duck Rabbit video. God no!
