Where do I stand here?

[evil_demon_01]

I don't see the point of having a pet if you don't have it in the house... but still.

Why not?
I can't play fetch with my dog inside the house, and I sure as hell won't have litter boxes in my house . . .

[deevergote]

I dunno... my friend's family had an outdoor dog, and that animal led a miserable existence. Pets are family to me.

[Leung]

I usually share my fries with my dogs but when i don't feel like sharing, i just nudge them with my foot. I don't hit them because just like Deeve said, they are family. I've only had one dog steal my food and he's dead not but even then i didn't get mad, i just got up and made another burger.

[GeoffM]

Btw people, I was sitting down. I couldn't have picked it up.

Animal abuse is taken seriously around where I live. I would have just shouted no before hitting it. That's like your sister walking in, drinking your milk and the. Without saying a word you deck her. All you had to do was simply say no and maybe gave the dog a little nudge. I didn't take a look at the picture since my phone is slow but I'm guessing its a husky?

I believe it's a husky. My sister is old enough to not need training. Or at least she's outgrown physical training, except in special situations.

Please don't hit animals. Dogs are called "man's best friend" for a reason. They relate to us differently than other animals. A dog is easily able to sense your attitude and feelings toward it without you even opening your mouth or raising a hand. You just need to scold them verbally and then later reaffirm that simply because you got pissed at them and corrected them, you don't harbor a permanent negative sentiment toward them. I have 4 dogs. Each one of them has a distinct personality and I love them all more than most things in life. I have slapped them on the back end or popped them on the nose but that's very different than punching it in the face.

I don't harbor a negative sentiment towards anything or anyone. Everyone gets a new fresh chance everytime they see me. If a dog needs to be trained, I'll train it. See above and you'll notice it wasn't a brutal hit. It was simply to train it.

I'm with your sister on this one. Hell, if I was there to see you punch a dog, I'd probably knock you out myself. Yell at the dog, push the dog away, put an arm under its ribcage and lift it away... all better options than punching the dog. It was only a glass of milk!

Think about it. Aside from the fact that attacking an animal for being an animal is wrong in multiple ways... imagine if you did real damage to the dog. If you injured the animal, expensive vet bills would be incurred. You would have to pay them. The vet would probably be able to tell what happened, even if nobody says anything about it. Just like child abuse, animal abuse is taken seriously by the law. The vet can, and probably will, call the police and report you for abusing the animal.
So now you're paying for vet bills AND defending yourself in court against animal abuse charges (which can come back to haunt you in life... Michael Vick is one of the most talented quarterbacks in football, and the Eagles got him dirt cheap because nobody wants an animal abuser on their team!)

Is that worth defending your glass of milk?

Excellent. I could say I got in a fight with Deev! Then I could see your secret hidden moves

I don't know if you still feel the same way after seeing what I typed above. It wasn't a crushing blow, and it was meant to train the dog.

One last thing. I've spoken on here about when my other dog bit me. The injuries he sustained required him to go to the vet. Nothing happened

But what you did is a POS move..

Nope. It was a logical move. Nothing more.

It's either a husky or a malamute.

I asked. It was a husky.

Arm your self with a super socker, air horn or a rolled up news paper any of those methods will help deal with the dog, and if your sister still crys cops or some type of drama than she's a real bitch... Sorry and if that dosent work talk to some one about the problem.

I think that would be hilarious. But, I had just woken up and was eating breakfast. I wasn't prepared for a sneak thief.

The next time your sister's dog pisses you off... punch your sister.

She has to punch me first.

but seriously, you fucked up

Nope. Logic trumps an untrained dog.

Violence never solves anything...

So yeah I'd say that is a overreaction on your part. Should have just shoved the dog or yelled at it.

It wasn't an overreaction. I would've shoved it, but it would've made a mess.

GeoffM...how much paint chips did you consume as a kid?

It sounds like you can't think for yourself..I don't know why you bother to post stupid shit like this and then expect some sort of response to defend you.

If you ever hit an animal expect to be given it back two fold. I hope that dog castrates you.

Why would you hit an animal you dumbass.

Spilled milk? Shit that's why there's a fucking carton or a jug in the fridge.

None. Paint probably tastes gross.

Why wouldn't I be able to think for myself? I did the logical next step and trained the dog.

Super simple answer for the case at hand - Don't let the dogs inside the house.

Or second simple answer - Move out of your parents house.

Financially, moving out is impossible.

It's not up to me to let the dogs in or not.

I don't see the point of having a pet if you don't have it in the house... but still. Dogs are dogs. If you have food that they can get to, especially if they're not yet trained, they will try to get to it. Don't leave your shit accessible to them.

Or, as said... move out. Or your sister can move out.

I agree with you here. I rarely go in my back yard in the winter. Having a dog to keep outside wouldn't be any fun. Like I said, the point is to train her.

Why not?
I can't play fetch with my dog inside the house, and I sure as hell won't have litter boxes in my house . . .

I can't smell. That's probably the only reason I can tolerate them.

I usually share my fries with my dogs but when i don't feel like sharing, i just nudge them with my foot. I don't hit them because just like Deeve said, they are family. I've only had one dog steal my food and he's dead not but even then i didn't get mad, i just got up and made another burger.

I share my food with my dogs, even my sisters dog. It was just an all of a sudden thing, so I disciplined it. That's how you train them.

[HenRoc]

You grab it by the snout and you tell it no..not punch the dog. I swear you either one of two:

1. Attention seeker
2. Just really annoying

It sounds harsh but were you expecting some sort of sympathy card in your thread?

I'm going to punch my sister's dog because it spilled my milk.

You went Hulk on a fucking dog.

No, no I didn't. It;'s difficult to explain over the internet. Yes, it was technically a punch. It I had hit you with it, you would've assumed I was trying to get your attention, not hurt you.

I really only made this to see if the cops could do anything if they'd have shown up. From the responses nothing would've happened unless the dog was injured. Since there was no way it would've sustained any injuries from me, I should be in the clear. That was the only reason I made this thread.

I would pay money to see this happen.

Honestly - You just answered your own original question "Where do I stand here?"

You stand No-where.

It Isn't your house
It Isn't your dog/s
The problem is between you and your sister




Maybe (More than likely) it's the fact that I'm not from the USA.
But over here if you have a problem like yours; - either you are overdue to move out of your parents house
,or you are overdue to get a job
,or both.


I left home when I was 17 to go flatting and get a job.
Now I'm 25, Work for Honda, own my own house, And also own my own dog.




IMO You don't have the right to complain about certain situations if your still living at home.

[GeoffM]

My logic is that if no one trains the dogs, then eventually they'll screw up to the point that everyone else would've wished that they had trained them. Ie, if you don't train a dog not to bite, then one day she draws blood. You now have no choice but to kill it. But, it could've been avoided had you trained her properly.

All the money from my job goes towards gas to get to and from school.

[MikeW]

This.

Violence never solves anything..

I beg to differ. I'm not saying it's the only way to do something but it sure does work.

I can't smell.

Pardon my trolling for just a moment but isn't smell incorporated into a good portion of taste? You said that the sandwich you were consuming was a "delicious rueben", did you not? If you cannot smell, how is it you know that said rueben was "delicious" ?

You don't have the right to complain about certain situations if your still living at home.

This. It sucks and it's stupid or whatever but it's the truth. Unfortunately if you don't like it you can find somewhere else to live.

All the money from my job goes towards gas to get to and from school.

You must either have an extremely, shifty paying job or you must go to school really, really, really far from home.

I couldn't agree more.

I don't know. I can taste things, and I've tried fine cheeses and can taste the difference between them. Now, if I go to an area with a very potent smell, like an outhouse or a gas spill I can sometimes smell those.

I work at Autozone. I make about $400-450 every two weeks.
I drive 30 miles to and from school 3-4 times a week. Work is fairly close to school, so that's another 30 miles roughly 5 times a week. I suppose I do end up with some left over, but that's absorbed into food and rent.

[phatdoughnut]

Tell your sister to train her dog properly.

[deevergote]

Or just stop being stingy and share your fucking milk.

Dogs + Milk = bad. Atleast put some chocolate in it for him/her... and give him some brownies.
