Dogs in prams

blokeuptheroad · 2024-06-13T07:44:30Z

Dog lover here, not wanting to open another dogs are ace/shit bun fight, just an observation about specific dogist behaviour. Maybe this has been done before, but I've only just noticed. Loads of people out and about pushing dogs in prams/pushchairs. I was helping my wife with her stall at an outdoor event recently and we must have seen over 30 of them come past. Dogs of all sizes too. We did laugh when one vicious bundle of fur, the size of a guinea pig (looked like Gnasher from the Beano) launched itself at another passing dog pram from within it's own, knocking it over! I could kind of understand if this was just letting previously active but elderly/injured dogs see the world. It was mostly young, fit dogs though. What's the point? Is it just down to people taking the vomit inducing 'fur baby' concept a bit too far? Seems a bit cruel to the mutt to me. The other observation from the event was that most other 'normal' dogs on leads, hundreds of them, were very well behaved.

I am chuffed that this slightly tongue in cheek, observational thread has been so good humoured. Mostly 😄. Educational even - I've realised there are often perfectly good reasons why people do this. Thank you for not being arsey, and thanks for gratuitous pictures of dogs - always welcome!

How much does it cost them to provide a parking space at the dog park over ~5 years, expand the road infrastructure

@thisisnotaspoon

I hear your argument, but this is Munich. There are next to zero free parking spaces in town and as far as I know zero dog parks.

Other friends of mine were turned down when they said they would use a bike for getting to work and doing the weekly shop. 🤔

Did anyone else read the thread title and immediately imagine it being sung to the tune of "girls in film"?
