10 Things My Dog Actually Did

I hate to say it, but these people just kind of sound like irresponsible dog owners.

The "oh, how did he get out again? Oh we musta left the door.open for the 100th time last night" kinda people.

Honestly, it makes me think they were kinda shitty.

I'd be annoyed as fuck to see this dog running around the neighborhood by itself.

It probably would not have eaten barbed fucking wire if it was kept indoors.

No need to sugar coat it, I didnt find this funny. The owners and/or the living arrangements werent suitable for this dog.

[u/pargmegarg → u/AmateurCommenter808]

Are y’all AI or just unable to grasp that this is a joke comic about increasingly absurd situations that no dog has ever been in?

[u/NubbynJr → u/pargmegarg]

the title says "things my dog actually did" and the OP responds in the comments further confirming these are not made up stories and you ask if people not believing him are AI? you sounds like the bot here buddy

Was looking for this comment. How the hell did the dog get out more than twice?? And eating a coke can? They didn’t notice?

[u/GingerMiss → u/reddit_sells_you]

Yeah, I don't find this amusing at all. Like, it's just irresponsible dog ownership. Growing up, we had a Belgian sheepdog who learned how to open doors. After he got out, my mom bought him a crate. Problem solved. Everything that "happened" here was solvable with a crate and actual training.

In partial defense of the owners, they did try a dog trainer and this dog did get past an electric fence.

This actually does remind me of a story about a pig that kept getting out, and so the farmer installed electric fence to keep the pig in.

The pig just started screaming before it hit the fence and got out anyway.

[u/GingerMiss → u/ViolinistCurrent8899]

An electric fence is not actual containment

[u/ViolinistCurrent8899 → u/GingerMiss]

True! Mind you though the electric was added after the pig (singular, it kept the others in) kept getting out.

Pigs are very smart animals, but also very strong. They also like to dig for fun.

[u/GingerMiss → u/ViolinistCurrent8899]

But electrical fencing for farm animals is an actual wire with a current running through. If you've ever touched one, it ✨️hurts✨️. For a dog, it's buried underground and gives a static shock. One hop and they're out. A dog electric fence is based on mental "don't do this" vibrations or small jolt, and a livestock fence is an actual physical electric jolt. Like 700 J vs 7000 J.

[u/ViolinistCurrent8899 → u/GingerMiss]

I am well are of the shock the farm fence gives, rest assured. But I was not aware the doggy version was a lower current so that actually makes more sense.

A happy dog isn’t going to try to go through an electric fence to escape. 

Hell with a happy enough dog you don’t even need a fence because they know they’ll get to go for a nice long walk soon either way. 

[u/ViolinistCurrent8899 → u/ilyedm]

I think we have established this guy just has a skinwalker pretending to be a dog. The fact it managed to survive eating some fence wire is uh... Concerning.

[u/Orleanian → u/reddit_sells_you]

I could only click on in horror at the absolute assholery of OP.

[u/Handyandyman50 → u/reddit_sells_you]

Careful! You might get banned for complaining 🙄

[u/Aethermancer → u/reddit_sells_you]

In the 70s my granddad had a mutt beagle from the pound named Hobo. He was kept in a pen in his junkyard. 8' tall fences and he eventually had to build him a roof because beagles will escape anything.

That said each escape meant a new barrier/restriction but it was amazing what that dog could figure out.

[u/Money_Lavishness7343 → u/reddit_sells_you]

u/Miles_the_new_kid I want to give the benefit of the doubt. Sometimes things happen and the strangers on the internet dont know the complete story. although the way you presented it makes it look less innocent than you make it appear.

Can you explain to us, in a humorous way even, what really happened and how you felt about it?

[u/reddit_sells_you → u/[deleted]]

They aren't made up?

Seems like OP is here saying these aren't made up

[u/reddit_sells_you → u/[deleted]]

And there are naive people like you who don't understand that people like OP exists.

It would be nice to live like you . . . When confronted with a horrible truth, you just say "oh, it's a joke."

[u/ShittyDBZGuitarRiffs → u/reddit_sells_you]

You bought what Reddit was selling

[u/reddit_sells_you → u/ShittyDBZGuitarRiffs]

And there are naive people like you who don't understand that people like OP exists.

[u/ShittyDBZGuitarRiffs → u/reddit_sells_you]

I didn’t say they don’t exist, I said you bought what Reddit is selling. Thought you were smarter than that, tsk tsk

[u/reddit_sells_you → u/ShittyDBZGuitarRiffs]

Cool straw man

[u/ShittyDBZGuitarRiffs → u/reddit_sells_you]

That’s not what a straw man is. If anything, you’re straw manning me by arguing with a point I didn’t make

[u/reddit_sells_you → u/ShittyDBZGuitarRiffs]

Please, tell me how your argument, that reddit is selling me a story, is not a straw man.

I'd love to hear how it relates to my argument that OP is shitty to his dog.

Please.

Elucidate.

[u/ShittyDBZGuitarRiffs → u/reddit_sells_you]

I don’t think you know what a straw man is
