So, /an/ for the past two years I've been wanting to get a dog. Knowing that's it's a huge responsibility I've read up on pros and cons of raising and having one and through all that I still very much want to have one. I have a house, stable income and enough free time to spend with a dog. So I've come here to see if any of you can talk me out of it.
Maybe there's something I overlooked or didn't read up on and i need to make sure I'm thinking this through clearly. Shoo please,/an/ Red pill me on owning a dog

Sounds like you've got the requirements covered. The intangible is that dogs, mostly especially young dogs, are highly social and will depend on you to fill that aspect of their lives. Which can be annoying. Dobermans are sometimes called velcro dogs for a reason. They want to be with you always. They get pissy if you don't give them attention. This is minimized by ample exercise and good training.
Dog ownership turns sour if dog's needs turn out to be more than anticipated and overwhelm.

My grandfather was a hunter and he swore by mutts because they didn't get ill as easily.
Some purebreds are unhealthy, and some breeds of dogs are literally dying inside.

Does anyone know what this bug is? It was found on a small pond on the north of Spain along with more of them. We got it out of the pond for the photo and it was submerged and able to swim.

Hey /an/
does anyone know what kind of animal is this? The person who took the video (photos from a video) says is an invertebrate that was found while they were hiking.

this is my cat pudding after we built her a house out of cardboard boxes from costco.
I THINK IM FINALLY GOING TO DO IT
I'm tired of being a broken, damaged person. I'm tired of not being compatible with anyone. I want companionship but I'm such a damaged girl that having a boyfriend is hard to manage for me. I'm tired of all the failed relationships. They're all my fault.
I want a dog.
Just wanted to get this off my chest.

He's not gonna make it, is he. The bleeding and coughing stopped, but now he "clicks" when he breathes and he's just sitting on his perch, breathing heavily with his eyes closed.
Is there anything I could do or should I get the shoe box ready.

Why are you asking a question such as this in the slowest board on 4chan? Also what country are you living in?
What's that?

Hey /an/ a traveling newfag here
I arrived in Azerbaijan yesterday and had a hard time sleeping because of some very loud singing bugs at first i thought it to be a cricket but one of the people living nearby said they looked like big black flies almost and they just sit on trees. So i'm guessing it's a Cicada right? but when i google Cicada locations or Cicada azerbaijan i find nothing. What do you guys think it is?

Probably cicadas. Theres not really anything else that matches that description and is loud as fuck.
>>
>>2164188
That's what i'm thinking, can't find anything online though. Maybe it's just that Azerbaijan isn't documented that well since computers and internet connection is limited?
>>
>>2164187
My cat loves eating those cicadas.

I decided to make a post of all studies, expert opinions and metadata showing how a few myths combined with rampant media coverage can fool the masses. Discrimination requires prejudice; prejudice requires illogical uneducated thinking.
