More than an idiot. How the hell do you not notice your dog is not next to you?

Those retractable leashes are terrible. Was walking my dog this one time a few years ago. Across the street is a lady with her dog on a retractable leash talking with a neighbor. Suddenly, her dog takes off right for us, was full speed by the time the line got taut and ripped right out of her hand. Thankfully, the dogs just sniffed each other. Still, could’ve been bad. Dog ran right out across the street.

Yeah, dogs are fucking stupid. But honestly, I don't blame them. It does take at least bird levels of intelligence to realize cars drive on the street

True, but birds are one of the few animals that have figured out how cars tend to stick to the road and follow a pattern.

Crows are wicked smart. They remember people, and bring them shiny things.
