Huskies are beautiful without puppy eyes

Like cats, dogs probably domesticated multiple times

if there's one sort of dog that does NOT have puppy eyes; the uncanny valley stair of a pit and pit mix. Yuck, they look like a 1980s creature feature monster that ate half the town.

Fucking weird response. Lol I was attacked by a pit and was afraid of them of 20 years; turns out, they’re the sweetest, most cuddly, and genuine dog breed I’ve ever experienced. You don’t have to think they’re cute, but it’s quite disgusting that you think your opinion is the right one. Lol. And btw, it’s stare* not stair.

Not to mention, if you look anything like your personality (which is plausible because your profile picture is another animal), you’re no better. No need to spread hate, you’re absolutely in the right to have your opinion, but why take the time to specifically spread negativity? Have a good day. ❤
