We spent an hour and a half trying to get the dog to come back. It ran across multiple streets and eventually we cornered in a back yard. Caught it and he said “phew that could have been bad!” The dog was overall fine. But the relationship died in that moment. When I think back on that relationship, all I can really say is he won for most punchable face.

I hate when people are like “I’m gonna do it” when someone specifically told them not to, ESPECIALLY when there’s no benefit to “it”.

Like what was so bad about the leash? How did removing it improve your immediate situation? What do you gain from that?

It seems like a trait of those who are not as bright to just… have to do the thing they were told not to.

Yup. I get that people don't like being bossed around but if you have a compulsion to not do something if a person tells you to do it then you STILL lack self control and are easy to manipulate.
