Fuck, it's been about two weeks since mine died too. Had the little guy for 14 years, and he was already four or five when we got him from the shelter.

I believe they can, yes, but it depends on your behavior immediately after the "accident." If you step on your dog's paw and immediately apologize to her and talk in a kind voice to her and pet her, she will probably understand that you did not mean to hurt her. When I accidentally step on a tail or paw and say sorry and pet her, my dog wags her tail and expresses comfortable body language.

Conversely, if you stepped on your dog's paw and didn't react or acted annoyed/angry, she may think you intended to do so, and is more likely to cower/slink away, etc.

I also think they do understand intent/accidents because many dogs themselves "apologize" (display appeasement behavior) when they accidentally hurt you (or another dog.) When we're playing and my dog tries to grab her toy but accidentally nips me and I go "ouch!" she stops playing and looks concerned, might lick my hand, etc. i.e. They have a concept of what they intended to do (grab the toy) vs. what happened accidentally (nipped a hand) and act accordingly. So I don't think it's too much of a stretch to assume they can comprehend the same thing in reverse, at least to some extent. And in the case of dog to dog interaction, when the offending party accidentally hurts or offends the other dog and "apologizes" with appeasement gestures, the injured dog usually accepts this, vs. if a dog hurts another dog and doesn't react to the fact that they hurt their playing partner, the injured dog is more likely to stay upset/escalate a conflict.

As long as she's happy and healthy, that's all that matters! She's a cutie and I'm glad she's ok.

Could be her acting weird because she might be going into heat. Could be a fear period. But I would get her checked for a UTI just in case.

That's fair. That level of reactivity is understandably not ideal. I know you didn't ask and you may have seen or used it already, but look into the "CARE for reactive dogs" protocol, it may help. I also recommend a muzzle if taking her out in public just for peace of mind. Plus, people tend to stay further away from dogs wearing muzzles so that can be helpful too.

I'm so sorry, anons. I'm glad you guys got such a long time with your dogs, though. Think of how loved they were for all those years! Lucky dogs. Planting a tree and making a patterned glass sheet with ashes are both such lovely ideas to honor them.

>When I accidentally step on a tail or paw


one of those stupid things you need to be strict about. when you let your dog sleep in your bed, chances are neither of you will get any sleep because dogs have very light sleep and overheat fast. so they'll be jumping in and out of bed all night. they also like to lay behind your chair as you work so when you slide it back, you may roll over their appendages or worse, fall on them. It's best to have your dog sit/sleep in a designated place just to be safe.

I don't have her sleep in my bed, ever (allergies.) I'm not sure how I would step on her while laying down anyway, ha. She's allowed to cuddle with me on the couch on invitation. Otherwise she sleeps where she wants (in her crate, on one of her beds, or on the floor next to me while I'm on the computer) and if it's in an inconvenient spot I just ask her to move, though that's rarely an issue.

I'm just a clumsy person and she is sometimes not so graceful either. We forgive each other.

bigger the better I say. I wouldn't even evict huntsman spiders, if we had any.

I let all sizes of spiders run around or set up in my place. They don't get in the way and I happen to not mind webs (I don't give a fuck about traditional decor) unless they are abandoned and pick up too much dust

>>2896165
I have these assmasters in almost every corner. I wish they ate the other bugs that wander in instead of each other.

some of them can do this too

It isn't, as long as you get rid of the webs from time to time because old webs only catch dust and look disgusting.
My favourite home spider is a little jumping spider that lives behind a poster in my kitchen.

I love every pug I meet because it's always playful, sweet, and good around other animals.

If someone tried to breed a healthier pug, I'd have a few.

I don't think dogs have the capacity to really measure size to the point of compensating for being small by being aggressive.

for fucks sake... it called "his owner". why the fuck do people have to call themselves the dogs "parents". wtf. i don't get that.

There's a reason there's an expression about bringing a knife to a gun fight. If a gator were to walk into my backyard and I decided I'd try to Steve Irwin it I'd probably be dead not because the gator was wrong but because I was stupid enough to pick a fight I can't win.

No there couldn't, food in the deep sea is scarce and the avarage giant sea monster would need a fuck ton of it

I see your point. That's mostly why I don't have a dog/cat, wouldn't feel right to feed him meat, but wouldn't want to abstain the animal from it either.

I wouldn't even do that to my children, desu.

>>2895682
You are saying that without saying why it's not taking care of their nutritional needs. Although you haven't outright said it, it seems like you are tending towards the "it's unnatural" argument.
