I can’t be doing with dogs either. I don’t know what’s worse, the actual dogs (most of which I don’t mind so long as they are kept away from me and the kids), or certain owners and their expectation that you’ll be really pleased to see their dog. Like they are treating us all with the presence of their animal. It’s a dog. I’m not fussed.
If you’re one of those who take it everywhere because you can’t leave it alone, then I’m sorry but your lifestyle isn’t a good fit for having a dog as a pet. Likewise if you’re out at work all day. Obviously not good for the dog. Stay at home with it or get a goldfish instead.
If you’re one of those who take it everywhere because you think your dog is a child or a family member and want to treat it as such, you’re a tit.
