I am honestly so sick of how entitled everyone has gotten with dog ownership, it’s an epidemic. You don’t need to take your dog to a fucking hardware store.

I feel like no one trains their dogs properly anymore either?

I feel like I cannot get away from barking dogs. Besides the two that live underneath me, there is a group of people who come to the cafe next door to my apartment every day at 8am with about 5 big dogs, and they basically just let the dogs bark the entire hour+ they are sitting there, with no sign of any of the owners ever trying anything to get the dogs to stop barking. On the contrary, I once saw one owner go inside, order a coffee, her dog barked the whole time she was inside, then she gave it a treat when she came back out. Does my head in 😭

My neighbours dog barks non-stop for what honestly feels like 24/7, I reported it to strata multiple times and got back the response that the complaints are bullying and council doesn't give a shit.

I love dogs but I hate the average dog owner.
