>Anyone seeing someone hiking alone thinks your either a loner, weirdo, rapist, or all of the above
You must live in a cliquish and dependent part of the world then. Where I'm from, we value independence and aren't insecure cowards like you. This doesn't mean that we never go PrepHole with our friends, families, and significant others. But we aren't afraid to go outdoors by ourselves either. Most people do actually. You must live in a really shitty environment if people really make those assumptions.
Why are you still living in a place where you can't even go for a walk without being hassled? I would have moved out of whatever shithole you're living in a long fricking time ago.
god i miss my dog 🙁 >work out of town regularly >away from home most of the winter, home for a few days to do laundry then right back innamountains >if i'm not living in a camper, i'm living out of a hotel
I do get to pet a lot of dogs (two just today, mutt and a gsd), so i've got that going for me.
You have to have a smartphone and be looking at it and act like you're having important or amusing interactions with others on your phone. You also have to make sure to keep the walk to a sexy, socially acceptable duration and at only certain times of day. If you want to go on more than a 15 minute walk, you have to go somewhere remote. If someone sees you emerging from the remote location and can tell how long you were there, then it's just as bad as if you had been walking in front of them for a few hours. It's best to walk in with one disguise and come out with another.
you know what actually scares me out walking is a group of 4 homosexuals walking taking up the entire walking space being loud and obnoxious not some dude walking minding his own business
Why would I want that little Black person running around farting and scaring the animals away?
If I want a conpanion, I kidnap a frog or newt or some such for a while.
Got one from pound after my other two died. He was born there and the last one left. He's the best Doggo I've ever had. Trained him to sit at my 6 as a fish and bark if he sees anything
>annoying >cant be turned off an left in a closed when you dont need it but demands constant attention >greatly reduce freedom, need to find ways to bring it with you or a dogwatcher wherever you go >smelly and loud >will shit and piss indoors and make a mess
there is no part of my brain who understand why people willingly get dogs.
Not if you train one from puppy, if you get the right type ie working breed and train it correctly then it can be quasi-independent after a year or two

biggest concern with dog is ticks and other insects being brought into my house. if there was an animal that contributed to removing insects from my property i would domesticate it. some kind of animal that would compulsively check me for parasites when i walk through chest high brush.
>if there was an animal that contributed to removing insects from my property i would domesticate it.
That animal would be Guinea fowl. They make great watchdogs too.
I want one pretty bad but I am in a contract with the navy where I have to go active duty as an officer in two years and I owe them 4 🙁 Have no gf or anyone who could watch him if I got deployed so I just dont think its a possibility.
Also i've only had chihuahuas my whole life growing up. Got attacked by a Doberman at work a few years ago and honestly I have wanted one ever since. Not because of the attacking part but damn they are just gorgeous dogs. I have never had a big dog though so maybe I wouldnt like it.
Here is a pic with my parents dog. God, I love her
porcupines are such bastards, had this happen to my dog too. wasn't nearly as bad as that, we were able to get most of the quills out using pliers but still had to go to the vet...$600 to get the rest removed and get some meds.
that porcupine never bothered anyone ever again, though. i made sure of that.
Did he learn? My huskies did this once. Now they bark at the porcupine instead because they have PTSD from the removal of quills. I hear the barking and come dispatch the bastard. Toss em in the burn barrel to keep the dogs from getting too curious.
I have had to deal with a much less extreme version, with a hedgehog not a porcupine. What does he look like now he's healed up?
Mine found a hedgehog and scampered under a railing to get it. The dog was cutting up its mouth really bad, but I couldn't get hold of her because she was biting the poor little fricker and also evading my attempts to grab her at the same time. Must have continued for 2-3 minutes and I was completely fricked off by the end.
That dog got a smack on the nose and put to bed early I won't lie.
I didn't want a dog but I got stuck with one. She is a great walker, doesn't pull on the leash, doesn't bark (while walking, she defends the yard) and never gets tired despite being a senior dog. I used to walk a lot on my own but now I feel really bad if I don't bring her.
I work too much and cant have a dog with me, i think it would be cruel to have a dog and having half a hour a day for months to care for it. Dogs dont like being alone.
my dog does not tolerate the leash and acts like he wants to murder other dogs or children. in the backyard hes pretty cool though. i was able to teach him a few tricks
>Why don't you have a dog
I dont like dogs as my grandma was an irresponsible dog owner during my childhood.
The dog she had was big enough she could barely keep it under control, as if that wasn't bad enough on its own the dog was also a rescue that used to live with junkies so it was always on edge.
The dog didn't like social activities and would sometimes just snap and enter attack mode for no reason.
What's even worse is she would defend its behaviour with excuses, like "don't look directly at him or he'll take it as a threat and try to attack you" or "he isn't used to being in your home and saw the toddler as an enemy".
Just realized this post became kind of a rant, so i'll wrap it up with saying this: If you're going to have a dog, then make sure you're strong enough to restrain it, and be sure to raise it properly.
I'm forever alone and work full time plus occasional OT so it would get lonely and I'd feel bad
>don't look like a creep walking alone
You don't need a dog for this. Just don't dress like a terrorist with an AR at low ready.
Bs. Anyone seeing someone hiking alone thinks your either a loner, weirdo, rapist, or all of the above
i am 2 of those things

I get attacked by blacks or questioned by police if I am out walking alone.
Why are you still living in a place where you can't even go for a walk without being hassled? I would have moved out of whatever shithole you're living in a long fricking time ago.
It's called the US, and being afraid is a part of our culture.
Does he know?
>thinks
Their prerogative so not my problem.
the word "think" in the context in which he used it is clearly a stretch

I go on kayaking trips with my dog. She fits on my lap and stays put while I paddle
RIPIP Knoife Doge
>edgy Black person seething at the mere mention of dogs
you will get cancer and die alone
That's a problem with the person, not the dog. Mental illness takes many forms.
>don't look like a creep walking alone
what causes you to look like a creep when you are walking
You have to have a smartphone and be looking at it and act like you're having important or amusing interactions with others on your phone. You also have to make sure to keep the walk to a sexy, socially acceptable duration and at only certain times of day. If you want to go on more than a 15 minute walk, you have to go somewhere remote.

most of these can be said about cats also
No
I'm not sposta be alone with dogs, or other animals, anymore :[
why?
He fugged them
Kys
Why would I want that little Black person running around farting and scaring the animals away?
If I want a conpanion, I kidnap a frog or newt or some such for a while.
I live in a small apartment that's why
I don't bring it along because of fear that it might aggro other dogs along the trail.
I don't need that ego stroking
I love dogs, but I don't want it to get bored alone at home while I'm working
Got one from pound after my other two died. He was born there and the last one left. He's the best Doggo I've ever had. Trained him to sit at my 6 as a fish and bark if he sees anything

alien wrists
hahahaha yeah, they're pretty smell. Guess I skipped wrist day! LOL
Stop posting half-naked pictures of yourself on Lebanese kiteracing forums and making us all look like homosexuals, MIDN.
Heres mine after he attacked a porucpine on our first outing
NO WAY THAT POOR THING LMAO. It probably was so used to attacking toddler instead that I had no idea about a porcupine!
Yeah hes a res dog from crow
his mom was a pitt
trainer says he probably has some sort of shepherd as well

she's the only thing keeping me from killing myself and I love hiking with her but she's not fully trained to be off leash yet
Cute sweater she looks happy and cozy.
