If a human of another ethnicity did this and you used it as an excuse to hate all of them, what would that say about you?

Damn you’re right. Humans and another, separate species without the capacity for rational thought, whom I hate for a plethora of reasons beyond the carpet pissing, are exactly equivalent. Guess I’m dog racist 🤷‍♂️

Maybe if you spent more time getting to know the dog on his terms, and then started training him once he respected you, you would come to realize you are choosing to hate this dog.

Such a fascinating position you choose to be part of. Does your gf know you hate dogs so much? How did she end up getting a dog knowing this? Why would you date her knowing the dog comes with it? Why wouldn’t you talk it out with her and come to some sort of compromise?

He does respect me, and I have been training him. He has improved a lot in many areas. His aggression towards me has even improved substantially over the past couple months. I’ve also gotten him to stop pissing on the carpet. I just hate every second of it. Dogs are disgusting shitbeasts who emulate feelings of connectedness despite having zero self-awareness or rational thought. They are basically biological automatons with no soul. I’m convinced the only people who like dogs more than people just have unresolved trauma, and see dogs as a “safe” option compared to people. I fucking hate these animals with every fiber of my being.

She knows I hate dogs. She got a dog because she literally will not get out of bed in the morning unless she has something to guilt her into doing so. She has medical issues and severe mental illness. I respect this because I’m a good partner, and don’t take my anger out on her or the dog. Is it fair to me or healthy? No. I think I might leave her over the dog.

To be fair, I didn’t know I hated them this much until I had to start living with one. I thought I could handle it, even like it, and I was totally wrong. Now we’re probably out at least 10k to replace the subflooring if I can’t scrub the carpet clean, and I can’t, even with enzyme cleaners and pet urine-cleaning carpet shampoo. Every time I try to bring it up my gf will literally yell at me to stop talking about it and then walk away. She can’t handle the stress so I’m all alone.

Edit: Before you ask, no, she doesn’t help with the carpet unless I specifically request it, despite it being her dog. Her medical issues do not impede her from helping with the carpet whatsoever.

I think they’re just trying to point out that not all dogs are like the one you’ve experienced.

It’s entirely valid to not like them, but genuinely hating all of them on principal does seem kind of overboard.

Nah bro, comparing not liking dogs to racism is actually crazy…

Dog haters have never committed generational war crimes because they don’t like dogs.

There are better ways to say “not all dogs are the same” than “Imagine saying that about a black person” or sth. I just did.
