In case you're not a dog person, I encourage you to read up on Man's Best Friend.
One of the reasons they get this name is due to their superior smell and hearing over our own. Once you learn how to read them, they will sense things before you do. This makes them great companions even when they're not assisting you in the wild.
Funny story, friend had a dog for YEARS and never really barked at anything, stuck to grunts and growls. One day a documentary about wolves goes, and louder than anyone expected, just like the gif but bigger dog.
I have 6… 7yo American Staffordshire, 5yo American Pit, 4yo Labernard (Lab/St Bernard), 3yo American Staffordshire, 1.5yo American Staffordshire/Beagle/Mutt, and 7mos old Boxer. I want allll the dogs and I worry not about some dirtbag invading my space
Speaking of which, have you all checked out Catturd's coonhound puppies ? For the last 3+ weeks he's been a midwife, doula, and nanny all rolled into one.
...which clearly indicates that people who have the bare minimum level of responsibility required to care for a dog have a high enough sense of responsibility, and self discipline to elevate themselves above becoming a common criminal.
We have a German Shepherd our neighbor across the street has a beautiful mix next door neighbor has five dogs, four little yappers and one big black lap. There are also a couple more blue heelers on our block and I believe a pitbull. There was a lovely Rottweiler but she passed recently.
Our GSD will get in between us and any perceived threat instinctively she's awesome, most of the time it's only the mailman, she likes the ups guy lol.

And thats just a few of the benefits...
Well let's see.....I live down a dirt road that only has three houses on it.
We have 11 dogs ourselves. One neighbor has 8, the other has 6.
I feel safe. Life is good.
Holy shit, 11 dogs. That's a lot of food and shir to deal out and with.
Should we set a pool on how long before dog ownership = white supremacy?
Yeah. Lots of dog food.
Too much dog food.
Would anyone like a puppy?
Howls. 🐺

sounds like a fun crew!
Let’s not kid ourselves. Stereotypes exist for a reason. Why do you think black people have a natural tendency to fear dogs?
Well, aren't the dogs in Africa mostly coyotes or similar?
That’s why you have dogs. Their language is universal.
God gave us dogs as a companions with unconditional love and we don't deserve them.

Thanks for that heads up, I’m partial to hounds after adopting my redbone!
Coonhounds seem really sweet. I'm very partial to the hounds, having grown up with a beagle mix.
all neighbors decide to put their alexas outside and tell alexa to occasionally bark

Idk man, everyone has a dog in the ghettos and crime still rampant
But not as much as the ghettos without dogs, according to this study... 😉
Love that.
I love dogs.

dogs are expensive to own, and crime tends to happen in poorer neighborhoods
“Poorer”.
Umm, sorry?
I’m Quoting “poorer” as a euphemism for “black”
