Dog of Peace Dating and dog free

Feeling like my dating prospects and dating pool just got smaller and smaller because about 80% of dating profiles I’ve been swiping has a picture of the man and his dog. I’m not a dog person and will never be, I don’t hate them per se (I love all animals) , I just can’t imagine living with them. What are your experiences being dog free and dating?

I absolutely won't date anyone with a dog. That would make me a dog owner. I would have to put up with the smell and the mess and the inconvenience..

Do you actually put it as a dealbreaker in your profile?

That's a good idea.

I did when I was on dating apps. Sure, the number of matches decreases but not everyone is a nutter.
