For anyone one confused, your pets are not family members, they are animals. Every dog is not a service animal. Sorry that you suffer from anxiety but that doesn’t mean you can bring your poorly trained dog with you to Walmart. Just like kids, people need to understand there is a responsibility to have a pet. Train your fucking dogs and if you can’t then properly handle them as such, I.e. if you weigh 100 lbs don’t get a 100 lb dog. Fuck, people are stupid.
As much as I love dogs, I understand the sentiment. But fish and birds don’t do this kind of damage so I don’t think it’s fair to say every pet can’t be family
My point with family is people give way too much leeway with animals and forget they are animals. Birds can do a lot of damage depending on the situation. A parrot around a child can inflict a lot of damage. Fish would be harder unless you have a huge saltwater tank. If you see a person hanging a large snake on a kid we immediately call it stupid. Yes, dogs are domesticated but it doesn’t mean they are always calm.
