The best possible pet to have is your friend’s dog. Do your friends a favor, and get them this wonderful pet.
Once you troll that, I will tell you that you remind me that when I was growing up, they came out with virtual pets (also known as Giggapets, or Tamagotchi pets, as that was the name of the company that came out with the idea). It was a small handheld device with a a pet on the screen. With the press of a button, you could feed it, take it on a walk or let it sleep. Sometimes it would “wake up,” “get hungry” or “get tired” and you would have to take care of it.
Your post doesnât make sense
I should get myself a dog or my friend a dog or I should take my friendâs dog?
Anyway I see it as a growing trend to get a dog
Iâll stick with my goldfish
They donât bite
They donât need to be house trained
They donât need to be fed often
They love you the sameHad a guy in my office yesterday . He looked tired, I asked him whatâs wrong
Has a brand new puppy
Needs to walk it every two hours so it doesnât mess up his house âbut itâs soooo worth itâ
Walking behind an animal cleaning up after it sounds so delightful
When did we become a society controlled by animals, itâs supposed to be the other way around“Iâll stick with my goldfish
They donât bite
They donât need to be house trained
They donât need to be fed often
They love you the same”I’d respectfully suggest that an alternative to goldfish is simply to purchase several “Beware of the Dog” signs and place them at your driveway entrance and on your front and back doors. You get all of the benefits of goldfish in terms of not having to walk them, feed them, etc. PLUS the security benefits you are unlikely to get from “Beware of the Goldfish” signs.
Chinese people eat dog meat.
‘Chinese people eat dog meat…’
Most Chinese restaurants serving dog meat lack a good hashgacha.My kids got the goldfish at their sukkah fair because the person doing the stand gave them for free
Accessories arenât expensive and I donât think itâs right to dump them down the toilet (people advise against doing it because they eat other fish until they become huge)
Pet rocks are a good study in human psychology
i prefer a wolf or a boa constrictor.
President Truman had the best advice about dogs: If you want a friend in Washington, get a dog.
To ujm: I think you are kidding. Your comment is as funny as the one about Jews making matzoh with the blood of gentile children.
To the Mods: I suggest you take down ujm’s comment, and if take my suggestion, you can also take down my comment.
huju,
I think you are a mah-yafis. Eating dog meat is banned in some Chinese cities but is allowed in most others and there’s even been an annual festival dedicated to it. Are your infantile woke sensibilities so ruffled by the truth that you actually compared it to the insidious blood libel lie?
The mods should permanently ban your sick kapo comments.
@mentsch1
I have 5 dogs. I live in small town America on sufficient acreage that the dogs have a half acre fenced area to run and play and poop. I open a door into the fenced area and out they go. I have never had to walk a dog or clean up their waste.
They were great comfort to Mrs. CTL I. Her multi year confined illness prior to death and helpful to me in my adjustment to widowed life.
I would not want to have a dog in an apartment and have to walk the dog at all hours and in all kinds of weather.CT
I donât doubt that it lifts the spirits of many
I just have an aversion to having a pet that can always decide to eat me
Wouldnât get a baby tiger for the same reasonsMishna lists animals that are always muad. Dog is not one of them. But having a dangerous dog might have halachic problems indeed.
I obviously meant the âeat me â part as a joke
But I just googled it
4.5 million bites in the US annually
800,000 requiring medical attentionYou should read perek shira:
The dog is a dedicated and cherished pet that recognizes its master and subjugates itself entirely to his will. Dog in Hebrew is “××× ,”which is a contraction of the words “×× ××××”, meaning “entirely heart”. This refers to the dog’s unashamed expression of its heart’s will, as well as its wholehearted devotion to the master who feeds it, whom it will protect even at the risk of its
own life. The dog sings that mankind, too, should serve the ultimate master, Hashem, with comparative allegiance.@Mentsch1
Since our dogs range in weight from 6-13 lbs, the risk of them eating us is not a concern.Loyalty to the Master, Hashem brought loyalty to the master. The dogs did not bark when we left Mitzraim. The goy gets neveila, whereas the dog gets rewarded with teraifa. It says that one who speaks lashan hara deserves to be thrown to the dogs. They did not bark but he barks.
Zetruth,
Yet the dog was one of the animals that didnât follow the âno being with your mateâ in the ת×××

Wise decision
A relative of mine has a German shepherd
110 pounds (I call it a wolf)
My kids want to know if they can put a saddle on it and ride itDear Rebyid,
So I built a doghouse and I am on the way to the pound. How do I know what kind of dog my friend wants?
@Mentsch1
My nephew had an English Mastiff that weighed 185 pounds, his children did ride it until they were about 8 years oldI love dogs and dolphins
A friend of mine has a Chihuahua, and his kids used him when they played flag football
i prefer a wolf
Thank you very much. đ
The Wolf
my apologizes to The Wolf
But it’s huge, and fortunately (i guess) it likes me, which means I get pounced on every time I enter the house. so I find myself face to face (on its hind legs its 6 ft tall) with something that I can only describe as the creature from little red riding hood
