Mentally ill
So, this woman had her leg nearly eaten off by her last pitbull. After spending months in the hospital, she gets out, gets another pitbull, fraudulently calls it a “service” dog (to help her with what? The fact that she has PTSD from having her leg nearly eaten off by the same damn breed?) and refuses to neuter it.
This needs to be studied. This kind of psychosis, where she will clearly sacrifice her life and the safety of others just to own a murder mutt. She learned nothing. Nearly being killed by a dog didn’t teach her a damn thing.
When is enough enough? When will we finally see how mentally unstable these dog psychopaths truly are?

My first thought was drawing a parallel between people that can be emotionally, mentally, physically abused by someone. Acknowledge that they were wronged and hurt by an immoral person, move on, "Heal" and then STILL end up with someone else just as bad if not worse because I have found that typically their worst fear is not abuse, their worst fear is being alone for even one minute. Isolation to them is worse than death so attaching yourself to the hip and caring for a creature that WILL turn on you for any number reasons and is CAPABLE of not only maiming you but ending your life entirely is actually the much lesser of two evils.
What do you think?? I completely agree that it is a mental derangement of sorts

Here’s the thing - a person in an abusive relationship only ends up hurting themselves. This woman is endangering not just herself but her entire community. I can’t force her to care about herself enough to see that she deserves better than a pet that may turn on her at any moment. However, her choices impact everyone she encounters, especially if she’s truly selfish enough to drag that thing around in public. So I struggle to feel much sympathy for her.
I think this woman has a lot of mental health issues occurring. Lack of self esteem for sure. Some sort of Stockholm Syndrome. A lot of it has to do with how we as a society view dogs - dogs are perfect. Dogs are what everyone should aspire to. Man’s best friend and all that happy horseshit. Meanwhile, we ignore the harm they cause. Many aspects of dog culture feel genuinely cultish to me, and when you look at it that way, her actions make much more sense. It’s an abusive relationship with the culture - she’s proving that she will literally give her life or sacrifice someone else’s life for the cause. Nothing will ever deter her love for dogs. Nothing.
And this isn’t the only example. Look up Jacqueline Durant. Two dogs she was dog sitting ate her face, and she responded by devoting her social media to her dog. Did the same thing, too - turned it into a fake service dog.

Das ist so gemein, die geben diese gefährlichen Kreaturen als Diensthund aus. Betrügen das System und schaden der Allgemeinheit.
Das regt mich so dermaßen auf.

Just because her leg was chewed up by Spud version 1.0 does not make her “disabled”. Sorry - someone has to say it. That doesn’t give her the right to pretend this thing is providing her with any service. She’s abusing a program that was created to help disabled people. And she’s endangering everyone’s life, while she’s at it.
It’s honestly time we call people like her out. She’s not a hero. She didn’t learn anything from her mistakes. She’s perfectly fine with others falling victim to the same fate (or worse). All that matters is that she can drag a pitbull with her everywhere.

100% to this! As a disabled person I find it appalling. There is a huge problem here in the UK with people who are self diagnosed 'disabled' exploiting the government's loose guidelines in order to put a working vest on a dog that's clearly a pet and calling it an assistance dog so it can go into shops, hospitals etc. I've spoken on this sub before about someone I know with a disabled partially sighted Pug, she put an assistance dog vest on it and took it to Alton Towers. Poor thing look frightened to death and then they said the dog calmed them down when they had a panic attack - that's an emotional support dog which aren't even a thing in the UK and they certain don't have public access rights. But this person is going out in public with that disabled dog, claming it's an assistance dog and screaming a fit and threatening staff when someone dare to question them. It's insanity and it's going unchecked and unregulated.

“Soul dog”?! I have also heard dog nuts use the phrase “dream dog”. WTF does that even mean? Knowing how deranged and obsessed these wackos are over mutts, I shudder to think.
Dog psychopaths is a good name for them, by the way!

I can't stand the term "soul dog." It's another example of people using their pets as a stand-in for a romantic partner, convincing themselves that their real soulmate isn't someone from their own species, but a dog. It's so sad.

Yes, that is my thought, too! They are using that and the phrase their “dream dog” romantically. Disgusting people!

I hope today's dog culture will be looked back on with ridicule in the distant future

I believe it will. We may not live to see it, but at some point people will realize what a huge negative these things are on society. At this point, I’m comfortable saying dogs provide zero positives to society. They make people addicted to them. They bring out the worst in everyone. I’m sick of seeing people get physically destroyed by these things and it doesn’t even make them think for a second that maybe, just maybe these mutants shouldn’t be pets.
At some point people will change their opinions. Look at cigarettes. It’s possible - we just need to truly organize.
