I think my dog may be autistic. he can't even talk, he just makes weird barking noises
"My dog is non verbal, can't recognize social cues and has to be told with predetermined language what to do. He gets extremely uncomfortable when he doesn't get his walks on schedule and he has a single minded fascination with certain specific activities (sniffing butts)."
there's a theory of animal cognition by an autistic zoologist that animals are basically all autistic
I don't know if there's any validity to it at all but it's a thinker
Seems unintuitive to me to use terms for human neurology for animals with diverse neurological forms but I'm not a zoologist so what the fuck do I know about any of this?
Stimming in the middle of the street, running away, raising an autistic child is so much work!
Yeah my kid does that when they're having a meltdown.
this just in: a majority of american dog owners are basically irredeemable reactionaries
this just in: a majority of american ~~dog owner~~s are basically irredeemable reactionaries
Many people are saying this
this just in: a majority of american dog ~~owners~~ are basically irredeemable reactionaries
disagrees (south America is an America)
So fucking what if it makes your dog get autism? Even accepting their premise it's so dumb of a fear
help facebook my 3 year old is still nonverbal!!! alaskan malamute if it matters
Add essential oils to their water
Bottled water of course, since there's poison fluoride in the tap water.
You're blessed then
Is tail wagging considered stimming?
fuck it must feel so good. jealous of dogs rn.
Dogs invented the downward facing dog pose. You ever see a cat really get a stretch in on a scratch post? Fuckers go belly to the wall, ass to the sky. Crazy good stretch if you copy them.
my dog has a hyperfixation on chew toys
mine has an obsession with outdoor cats
DONT GET ME STARTED
…Ok, but you got my started. Vaccine reactions, specifically vaccine associated sarcomas, are a real documented risk for animals getting vaccinated. They are associated with adjuvanted vaccines, especially the rabies vaccine. They are rare, but we know they happen.
We still recommend vaccinating your animals.
These numbskulls are inventing fake shit to get worried about instead of educating themselves about the real, actual scary things.
I hope their dogs don’t get rabies, because there is no antemortem test 🙃
🙃😐🙃😐🙃😐 <- what an animals’ head looks like rolling across the floor after it’s been decapitated to check for Rabies.
Americans are actually gonna make a human rabbies virus epidemic happen aren't they?
"Don't want to do anything unnatural to my pug; better not vaccinate it."
pug: (barely able to breathe as it is)
dalmation: (unspeakable rage and bone pain)
2029: Majority of Americans are refusing to wear chaps because they don't believe the roaming rabid dog packs are real.
Sooo many feral dogs because these are the same people who won’t spay/neuter.
Next Romero zombie film sounding good.
I know an autistic dog. He spends all day staring at the ceiling because he likes the way lights look. He hates being pet, but he loves hiding under a table where someone is sitting. He doesn't understand social norms
My new puppy dying of fucking nuclear rabies to own the libs
It’s funny a border collie is in the photo because they are autistic
Your dog is going to turn into a cat.
An outdoor kkkat to be precise.
I mean, I’m a little skeptical of them because they’re made for profit and probably have way less oversight than human vaccines, but it’s more about sanitation and quality than some Jenny McCarthy shit
This makes me angry in ways that idiots self-selecting their way out of the population never could. Protect your goddamned dog!
Dog morgellons real!!!
My dog can only talk when walking backwards, someone help!
You guys are a bunch of assholes to make light of this. My partner took their new dog to the vet for vaccines and it came back microchipped. They're even microchipping fucking dogs now.
They're building the dogopticon
This made me realize that I make jokes about forcibly educating people a lot. Maybe it's like a kink thing and they desperately want education but asking for it would ruin the experience for them
Hey, if they so obviously lied about the covid jabs being "safe" and "effective" (their own documents they tried to hide for 70 years clearly show that was a blatant lie) what else are they lying about?
Hmmmm?
LOL.
The vaccine for covid hasn't been around for 70 years, how would they have 70-year old covid vaccine documents to hide? And who is the "they" even? The us government? Big Vaccine?
Well, in all seriousness, Pfizer was ordered by a judge to release their documents re:the covid jabs testing and so on, which they had previously formally requested to not have to release for 70 years. No joke.
