Is it normal to wish all dogs were dead?

Your father was wrong and I can understand why you hate dogs. There is a serial killer I read about once whose mother preferred some kind of little dog to him and he used to stick things up the dog's rectum like bullets and things. Parents should never put an animal ahead of their children and any parent who does should lose custody of their kids.

I wish you were dead OP.

In your third paragraph you were beginning to make sense, blaming owners for not properly caring for their animals, I see it all the time too, but I'm not ignorant to blame the animal for this. After that all I read in your post was shit.

Dogs can provide love, affection, and protection, many times all of the above. They have goodness in their hearts, and extreme loyalty to their masters. THAT'S why people "love canines"

You are horrible, people say you grow up and you choose to like and dislike something from your experiences.. You dislike dogs, sure.

But you have no right to have any intentions to harm them. You can blame your problem with dogs on your father.. He never put the thought and time to care about you but he cared more about his dogs.. He wasn't a true father to you. And you have to accept what life gives you.. Don't go against it.. - personal experience: my dad left me when I was 4 and I'm perfectly fine today, learn to accept life as it is..

And the problem about your neighborhood dogs being loud, then complain... Your morbid thoughts about dogs -_-
Like some people hate dogs but they wouldn't try to kill them. God damn.

I hate dogs too. I don't totally know why but I just have no connection with them like other people do, no desire to play with them or interact with them. I do find them very annoying as well, however that's more of the owners fault for not caring for them properly (letting them bark all night, letting them roam wherever and be a danger or a nuisance-digging up yards or getting into garbage). When YOUR dog becomes MY problem, I take issue. Otherwise I couldn't care less if you have a dog. Just like people want the right to HAVE a dog, I want my right to NOT have a dog and the bullshit that comes with having a dog. I don't want dog shit in MY yard. I don't want damage to my flowers or to have to pick up my torn-up garbage off my yard. I don't want to have to keep my kids inside because YOUR dog is in my yard again. It's just a matter of respect and understanding that not everyone loves your dog like you do.

I think it's OK to dislike dogs and I hate how people act like you have 2 heads or something if you don't like dogs-I get it all the time. Some people like snakes-I don't-but why is it OK to say "eeew a snake" but somehow it's not ok to feel that way about a dog?? GMAB. There's nothing wrong with liking or disliking any kind of animal. I like cats, chickens, horses and cows to name a few. Big deal.

From reading what you've put in your post, theres no wonder your father preferred the dogs company over yours. Are you right in the fucking head?

unfortunately i have someone on my street who is just like you. i just told him that if he doesnt like the noise then he should move somewhere where there arent any dogs. people like YOU and the jerk on my street ALWAYS get what is coming to them.

Maybe they wish you were dead too. I know i do.

Personaly, I don't like dogs but I have to say that it's not fair to hate all dogs because some of them save people's lives on daily basis.

First of all, from reading all these comments people are sending you, I think you should hate PEOPLE more that DOGS

No, I myself happen to like cats more (as you can tell from my screen name) but i still like dogs, but I see where you're coming from, I once had a neighbor whose dog they would let outside everynight and lock the doors so the sound was gone from THEIR house, but if my window was open, all I'd here was barking all night long, so i see where you're coming from at that.

I also have a gross story to tell, my other neighbors had a dog who would poo, pick it up, freeze it and then eat it, (yea, he figured out the freezer so i wouldnt ever call a dog stupid) so yea that's DISCUSTING!

Also, dogs R loyal, but they do tend to be clingy and sometimes that could get annoying

And you're father? THATS SO SAD! =(

So basically, I just want to say it IS normal to have a hatred for something everyone else luvs, but mayb itd be best not to post it on a website full of losers who spend all there time on the internet, and i know you're probably thinking that's hypocritical, but in my defense, I've only discovered this site 2 months ago and I'll soon stop my obsession.

did a dog eat your face when you were younger?

they bark so much because they want attention. if they get no attention it's the owner's fault, not theirs. you should be more mad at the owners.

You're weird, no offense.

Your second last paragraph is stereotypical and just plain wrong as well. My dogs do not eat their own shit, they don't stink, they're not neurotic and so on and so on.

What you're talking about here is a badly trained animal that has been neglected and improperly cared for. And even then, it's really not the dogs fault.

Blame the owner. Not the animal.

I pity those who are missing the loyal companionship and wonderful sensation of owning a dog. Nothing like it in the world, unfortunately, you're missing out. But then again, some people can't deal with the responsibility that comes with owning one.

I can't belive this!!! You should be embarrased!!! They are so wonderful and sweet!

I don't like them either... but I have to take care of one... so I got used to it...
As far as I know, there is no reason why they bark most of the time. They piss people off inside, so they get thrown outside to do the same. They start barking outside because they want to be clingy and annoying inside again, but their owner have gotten tired of that shit I guess.
Some dog owners are just as bad as their dog, especially the ones who seem to think dogs are go'd gift to this earth, better than their children or something, and believe me there are quite a few... I think some of that type have posted above me... dogs would kill a child, and these stupid dog lovers will think it's unfair to kill the dog in return.
Anyway... most dogs are stupid... so if you really want to kill them you could just throw them some chocolate or something, because they are so dumb they will eat anything, even poison... and that is survival of the fittest...

I won't tell you one way or the other how I feel about dogs. What I will say is that you should definitely NOT take the advice of anyone telling you to go poisoning these dogs. First of all, if you do get caught you could potentially go to jail. Also, if you kill the dog of a neighbor and get caught, that's one good way to get yourself hated by the whole neighborhood. It's okay to hate dogs. You don't have to like dogs. Who cares. But fantasizing "often" about killing any living creature is something you might need to be concerned about.

dogs are shitty animals and deserve to die slowly and painfully.

If you don't like dogs, that's normal. Everyone has their preferences.

If you want them all dead, that's NOT normal.

I don't have any interest in any dogs, exept huskies and wolves..

I wrote this post so long ago, I am surprised it is still getting comments. I think it's been at least two years. Anyway, I am long over this.

It turns out I had an undiagnosed mental illness. I've been in treatment for a while now. I don't hate dogs anymore, and I don't think about killing them anymore. So everyone can relax, ok? LOL.

The people that sympathized, thanks. I really was traumatized by my father and his dogs. I had to work through that in therapy. I have realized, as a few very intelligent people pointed out, that it isn't the fault of the dog, it's the owners that need "correction." There are so many dog owners who really neglect their animals, and really I was mad at them.

But there are also people who do pay so much attention to their animals (or sports, or shopping, or the internet or whatever) that they really DO neglect their kids. I was one of those kids. But I've turned it around.

Now I'm the one in my neighborhood who does something about animal abuse/neglect, by confronting all the folks who DO abuse. Every single one. If I see animal neglect or abuse I DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT, instead of sitting around thinking about my anger toward my father and his neglect of ME in favor of his dogs. Because that didn't work! Being proactive works very well!

Like the guy down the road who was abusing his gorgeous bird to the point he lost most of his feathers. The first time I heard him screaming at his bird it sent shivers up my spine. I walked right to the door and confronted the guy. Well, we even became friends after that and he stopped abusing his bird. We now talk about cooking and Buddhism and PEACE. Amazing.

I rescued a lost dog last summer. Saved it from getting hit by a car and brought it to a shelter. I actually carried the poor thing home. He was shaking and terrified. I KNEW HOW HE FELT.

Change is possible folks. Never underestimate your power to change yourself and really get to the root of your problems.

lol you didn't NEED to call the cops...you WANTED to call the cops.

I don't think there is anything wrong with you. I hate dogs as well. They stink, whine, howl, bark, drool, lick their balls and asses and eat shit. Seriously, what's the appeal? I tried to like dogs, but after years of fighting my true feelings, I stopped. Everybody has their preferences. Some like dogs, I don't.

It's all true. They are loud and smelly and destructive. But they're damn good at sniffing out rabbits.

You obviously resent dogs beacuse of your father. That was his fault the dogs did not choose to be chosen over you so do not blame them. Also do not listen to the above poster don't go and poison other peoples dogs. This will devastate the owners that cared for them just for your own selfish reasons.

If you are so bothered by dogs barking talk to your neighbours about it if you haven't already in a polite manner about it. If they refuse to change than bring the police or other source of outside help that could stop thier dogs from barking

Maybe your jealous because men find them more fascinating than you... and probably more attractive!

wtf. id rather kill a person that is crul to animal s . dogs do nothin wrong . u fucks
