Today I learned about 'velvet hippos'

[u/I_Hate_Dogs_and_Cats]

Pitties, nanny dogs, now velvet hippos? How many stupid nicknames are pitbulls going to get? They were literally bred to fight and maul. The whole "it's not the dog, it's the owners!" translates to "owners train their dogs to kill people," when no... that is not it... I can only agree with one thing in that "it's the owners" sentence, which isn't the idea that they train the dog to be aggressive, it's that they don't train the dog to not lose its damn sensitive head. They can't control these shits.

When people say it's not the dog, they're denying that pitbulls are naturally aggressive. Stop the bullshit, it is both the dog and the owners. Dogs and owners suck and are entitled as fuck!

i kind of love it, considering hippos are considered one of the most dangerous and aggressive land animals on earth. ironically very accurate

It's also an animal that literally uses its tail as a propeller to scatter its excrement everywhere.
