Then there's that old one about guy # 1  who asks guy # 2 "does your dog bite?"   Guy # 2 says "No" right before guy # 1 gets bit.  Says to guy # 2 "hey I thought you said your dog doesn't bite!"  Guy # 2 says "it's not my dog"

I've always wondered how anyone with any brains could possibly get sued for a dog attacking someone.     Just because you feed an animal doesn't make it's actions legally your responsibility (I don't think) .  

If you feed birds, or squirrels, are you legally responsible for everything they do?

I think the statement “with brains” says it all 😂

Ok, so you probably signed something that says "any pet registered to you is your responsibility".   

So......take that stupid registration tag off his collar.  

I guess if the dog is chipped, you're screwed.

Just because you feed a dog and let him sleep in your house doesn't make him YOURS.   Orion got into the trash yesterday, drug out a couple paper plates and some other goodies, and made a mess in the kitchen and hallway.  Ol'Glennypoo didn't get yelled at one bit.   He did though!!   That's justice. 👍   I told him not to do that a long time ago, and he didn't listen.  That peckerhead is on his own!

I was kidding.  Lots of cats on the cameras but no dogs.

Do city people chip their cats ?

I don’t know.  I live in the burbs and I don’t have a cat.

You can add pretty much anything that significantly outweighs me to my list of "things not to mess with". Aren't any Steve Irwin genes in me, I'll run for the hills.

Yup, I don't trust any animal bigger than I am.  And horses top the list.  As one of my Montana friends who is a big game guide said, there are two kinds of people who handle horses, those that have been hurt by a horse and those who are gonna get hurt by a horse.

You can use common sense and stay away from big animals…but those darn spiders!!! 😂

Not trying to invoke any further discussion about anything COVID related by this post, but it is a grievance that I want to air.

What happened to washing your hands after using the restroom?!? One would think that if you were doing that up to 8 to 10 times a day that it would be a habit after 12 to 15 months of being reminded to wash your hands!
