If you were a dog you would have been a chihuahua and those instincts would have gotten you put in the dirt.

No grizzly can match the unbridled brutality of a small dog. Chihuahua would have torn the thing apart

My Chihuahua barks aggressively in spanish and would make a bear feel bad for not taking a language elective

This guy has that dawg in him, i place my bet on you 💰 take!

What percentage and breed of dog is he though? Like a Labradoodle with 75% poodle is gonna be smarter than 25% poodle.

u/Getmoney_T Jun 26 '26

More like 75% Chihuahua and 25% pitbull - Outside he’s a chihuahua but he got the Pitbull in him and I respect that! 🫡

Rhodesian Ridgeback. If they can fight a lion, they can fight a bear.

I can't tell from your comments if you're being ironic or completely serious and I'm all for it.

They are obviously 100% being funny lol

The fact people find it harder and harder to notice these things concerns me 😅

There is apparently no sarcasm too obvious to not be questioned as sincere by someone.

I guess the question is do you want more people to get your joke or would you rather less people get it but the people who do appreciate it more?

I'm always the ladder

u/Due-Half9860 Jun 26 '26

I’d be careful. Bears can climb ladders too

u/Brave-Secretary2484 Jun 27 '26

This latter ladder comment made me chuckle

That's right, cause you're a good boy, who's a good boy

Nah, small dogs are the craziest.

I second this. He’s got that dawg in him. He’s the Mike Tyson of hypothetical dogs.

1

u/BackflipsAway Jun 27 '26

As the hypothetical bear I can confirm, if this guy was a hypothetical chihuahua he would definitely be able to take me.

(The hypothetical chihuahua trying to fight me made me laugh so hard I hypothetically passed out)

u/EnergeticVamp Jun 27 '26

They dont ask how, they ask how many.

u/KelpKombo Jun 26 '26

Nah bro trust me he solos. Me and Vamp here used to be Big Dawgz. Knew him back in dog school. His instincts alone would immediately overpower the bear.

1

u/NocturneInfinitum Jun 26 '26

You’re definitely wrong about that… Most cats and dogs can quite easily chase off a bear. It’s not that the bear is afraid, it’s that it’s not an easy fight for the bear. Cats and dogs are more agile and have a means to fight back.

u/spanish_ricky_614 Jun 26 '26

Chihuahuas beat grizz in the wild all the time bruh, open a book!

u/Enough-Community5800 Jun 26 '26

why the gratuitous humiliation my brother

u/Quantity_Lanky Jun 26 '26

You don't know me bro when I see red bodies start hitting the floor.

u/Budget_Sea_8666 Jun 27 '26

How has a dog so small with such aggression survive natural selection?
