just read that the actor on this show developed a special technique for the scenes where he yells at dogs (which happens a lot, his character hates dogs) where he just mouths the words and they dub the yelling in later, so he won't scare the dog actor. that's courtesy

Pet owners are 100% responsible for the actions of their pets. Period.

Gotta say, there’s little I hate more than those “rescue” videos that demonize poor people who’ve had to surrender their animals after losing housing/or because they can’t afford complex veterinary care.

I have a service dog. There's a lot of time I'm unable to exercise my dog. I mostly live alone. Dog walkers/sitters ARE SO VERY HELPFUL. I don't see anything wrong.

Its the people that have pets & NEGLECT them that are the issue.
Take care of your non-human family members, yall <3

Ghislaine Maxwell has been barred from participating in service dog training while in prison because of her crimes.

I feel like if prison officials don't trust you around dogs, you shouldn't be eligible for a pardon under any circumstances.

When talking abt accessibility architecture I dont see talked about a lot is the inclusion of service animals. Both for those with physical and psychological dog needs. Areas for dogs to relieve themselves, enough space for wheelchair individuals And their dogs, buttons big enough and low enough

Love dogs. Of course they’re special gifts to those who have them. But…

Always leash your dogs when out in public spaces and stay in control of them. My daughter was attacked and bitten by a loose dog who had “never done that before”. She is traumatized and left with scars. Leash your dogs.

Public transportation should be just that - for the entire public. Not just for a select few, but for all. Whether you're disabled or able-bodied, you should be more than welcome on public transportation. The first front rows of seating are for wheelchair users, the elderly and for disabled people.
