Very probable. Far too many people think of dogs as just different shapped people.
I like dogs and have never met a dog that didn’t like me, from tiny toys through pits up to rotts and mastiffs. I don’t approach them like an old friend. I get down to their level and look beside them, not dead in the eyes – to a dog looking directly in their eyes is a challenge. I talk softly and extend a hand to sniff. After a couple encounters we’re friends.
I even made friends with a neighbor’s badass pit bull guard dog. The owner often let the dog loose on walks. He didn’t like it when his mean dog ran up to me, licked my hand and demanded an ear rub.

Because they can.
...punch line to a very old joke.
Ok we get the point
The dumbass put her face right down by a strange dog. In this case, stupidity really was painful. As usual, the animal will take the blame for human incompetence.
The triple post was entirely unintended. On my first try I received a message that it didn’t post, “proxy error”. I checked the thread and saw it didn’t post. I tried again with the same result. It worked on my third try. When I went back to the thread I saw the triple post.
You need to start seeing better looking women. Try showering and brushing your teeth more often.
LOL
I better pass
But thank you
——I hope she doesn’t vomit. G-d forbid she gets sick and has to throw up.——
Stop reading now if you don’t want to be grossed out...
Last chance....
Ok, here goes. After extensive oral surgery, I had my mouth wired shut. While I was recovering in my shared hospital room, I began to feel nauseous. A wave of anxiety came over me. Would I suffocate? Then I barfed.... blood. Probably several pints in separate heaves. Like an old-fashioned water pump.
Fortunately, my wisdom teeth had been removed, so the blood could escape through the back of my mouth. But I looked like Carrie.
It would have been nice if the surgeon had warned me about this.
You should have seen the expression on the face of my room mate and his visitor.
Yep, the handler should have warned the talking head not to do what she did. They should have advised/told her prior to being introduced to the dog.
Already got one, but thanks for the offer. My advise to you keep your legs shaved and talk less.
Best of luck to you and hope ya find a mate Miss!
BTW, the more people I meet, the more I love my dog.
As a general rule, fewer people understand dog behavior now than they did even 10 years ago.
It’s downright tragic.
:(
You’d be surprised by the rapidity of stupidity in some people.
There was never an offer, have never shaved my legs, and if I spoke less I would be nearly mute. If I hit a nerve with you I appologize but I couldn’t resist the play on words in your statement.
That's actually more information than I needed, but whatever spins your spokes.
Anyway, I didn't mean to ring your bell so hard.
Take care and good luck!
I guess since you suggested I shave my legs you think all men look better with shaved legs?
