    To be honest I do my best to be as clean and hygienic as possible. If there was someone in my house scratching their balls, rooting at their hole, and then dragging their hole across the carpet, I'd have them out on their ear and they wouldn't be welcome back.


    Don't give me that! There's nothing like dragging your arse across the carpet in the comfort of your own home and don't tell me that if you could lick your own balls, that you wouldn't.

    I'd say lucyfur just loves animals, nothing wrong with that, sure who doesn't. Amazing creatures dogs are though, I had a dog when I was 6 months old and always have had dogs with me till this day.

    I let the dog have full access to the house, it's not barred from anywhere and he's a rescue dog with many months of personal training and he sure learned well. He's a collie though so they are very easy to train regarding their intelligence. Stick the feller into the bath for a shower when needed and hygiene is excellent.

    If you find a hair in your sandwich... make sure its not yours before you give out to the modra.

    See its not the bedroom itself I'd have a problem with. But you have to draw a line somewhere. If you let them in the bedroom they will be in the bed next. No doubt they will try, I know from experience.

    Yep, an explosion of smelly pus

    jimgoose and the Impacted Anal Sacs would be a truly outstanding name for a Death Metal band. You have also provided a debut album title. I salute!

    This is the whole point I was making earlier on... you need to spend a lot of time training them and then they will know not to hop onto the bed. They have their bed you have yours, simple, just have to show them whats cool and whats not.

    You can always smell the dog the moment you enter a house. The people living there are immune/used to it but we can always smell it, even on you.

    My landlady has a very well-kept dog, she always cleans her regularly so I'm not taking about a lack of hygiene here - animals simply have a natural musk that many of us find overpowering. It's gross.

    I wouldn't date a pet owner. It's a deal breaker.

    Actually it wouldn't. But I have laughed my arse off before over one of your other suggestions. Sadly I can't remember what it was, but it was excellent.

    They'll be on it when you're not looking.

    You are basically over-reacting saying that, and obviously don't like animals it seems. You seem to have over-valued yourself because of such a very minor thing. Do you worry about putting your hand on a door-knob in public ? or would you clean the door-knob with a cleans-sheet before touching it ?.

    Its people that are the most dirtiest.

    I made a post on the first page that I remember reading a thread about a guy who sh@t all over a hotel at a wedding.

    It reminded me of the time walking into the bus station's toilets to find one cubicle completely covered in sh!t. It was all over the toilet, on the toilet seat, on the floor. I mean it comes out of you and drops into the toilet. This persons ass must have just fallen off completely, the whole cubicle was covered in it.

    There's an old man that uses the bus in the same village as me. Waiting for the bus, he's got his hand down his pants picking his hole. Swear to God that is true.

    I've seen people walk out from bathrooms without washing their hands. That's just gross. Off to do whatever, maybe paw your food with such a "I'm so perfect" attitude.

    People are filthy, there's no pretending they're not.

    I think I would trust an animal lover and their level of hygiene before I would anyone else. They know the potential of diseases and the importance of washing hands. Its something I was always thought as a child, wash your hands after touching that animal, I hope others were too. So what if you sit on a cat hair at a friends house.

    If you ever complain about my pets I'll rub that slice of ham all over the cat before putting it in your sandwich.

    Judging by the amount of people I see in work who think rinsing their fingertips for three seconds in cold water is enough to remove germs and possible traces of human waste after using the toilet, I'd wager my dogs are cleaner than most humans.

    My dogs live in my house. I'm writing this on the couch now with my Rhodesian Ridgeback sprawled across my lap (balancing the iPad on her side!) and a Spaniel curled up on either side of me.

    Not if trained right they won't. If a persons dog continues to hop on the bed then the person isn't training their dog properly. Any-time you see them on the bed if you can catch them as they hop-up then just tell them to get down using your index finger :D eventually they get the message.

    There are few people more disgusting than those who let their dogs lick their faces.

    I think we can all agree on that.

    I wouldn't think that would be much of a problem. Most pet owners I know wouldn't date anyone who was stand-offish (for lack of a better word) towards animals. Especially their own pets.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,080 ✭✭✭EoghanIRL


    Yes, disgusting ! No matter how well house trained or groomed.

    Quite simply, no. That's what dogs do.

    Read about 10+ years ago

    Cats (and dogs) treat houses and apartments AS THEIR OWN TERRITORIES and treat people as another animals who live on their territory.

    it ca be true, people ARE animals like any other animals around. More dangerous animals because people can think and use other animals to enforce their powers.

    If one put his or her nose down to earth and sniff, peple can sniff better than dogs.


    Also - there are laws we forbid to kill each other. But there are no law in any contry, which will imprison any human for eating other human being. Why is that?

    Perhaps, but people have a choice.

    I often think that my dog thinks I don't love him as much as he loves me cos I don't lick him back.

    My cat Diego is constantly licking my hand. Its like a small wet piece of sandpaper scraping your skin. I can literally only tolerate 10 seconds of it

    What's even worse is a person that goes to the toilet without washing their hands and sits down to tuck into a Mr Kipling cake and then licking their own fingers :D

    Personally, my dog is outside most of the time. Well appointed wooden shed is open to her. She also has an insulated kennel which even has a deck, came with the kennel. She is inside quite a bit and is restricted to certain rooms. I cannot leave her on her own as she does too much damage. Have tried and tried but she just continues to do what she wants so she is outside rather than be left on her own.
