Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Our dog is normally a sweet little dude but has a resource guarding problem we haven't managed to train out of him. He'll snap and/or nip at me if I try to get him to drop something he picked up on a walk, if I walk too close to a meal he doesn't want but also doesn't want me to have, if I hand my mom something when they're on the couch together (she is apparently a resource)
But he's a dinky little toy mix and weighs 25 pounds max, so the worst it ever gets is a little nick on my toe. Scale that up to a dog twice that weight at minimum and a big bite and what would be annoying in my case is life threatening in hers.
Yeah, that common with dogs, but they wouldn't kill you over it. Like warning bites are a thing.
Yeah they probably wouldn't go for the kill on purpose, but again, when it's a 50-150lbs dog with a wide jaw and a lot of force behind it, what might've been a wash and neosporin situation with a smaller dog could be lethal.
