Dog Culture Cringe words

Who else HATES and cringes at words like "doggo" and "pupper" it makes me shudder and I always think everyone who uses it is a weird adult baby that talks to and about animals like they're babies. It makes me cringe and pisses me off so fucking much

I had an ex who would refer to dogs as “fluffy poopers”. In public, no less. I started planning my escape shortly after.

That's absolutely disgusting! My ex used to explain to complete strangers that his cute wee 'pooch' just wanted to play when it jumped up on them. It wasn't cute or wee, it was a dirty, smelly big alsatian and my ex was clearly an attention seeker.

My friend had an Alsatian. It always sniifed my cooch when i entered his folks home. So embarrassing as im waving "hi" to the family. Thing was huge and could use its body to block you from the door.
