Farideh:
My choices:

- Faye (for obvious reasons)
- Dora (she will put a spell on you if she can)
- Melon (you will never know what she's going to do. Chaotic good!)

Bubbles is a sweet and nice person while Faye is a raging beast unless reined in by someone...

Sorry if it's a bad comparison, but it's just how my mind works.

That sounds about right :)

That’s because generally speaking, people who have say, Rotties, or Great Danes know that they have to be well-socialised and trained.  Most people with over-grown rats swear blind that little “muffykins” couldn’t harm a fly, despite the tiny beast being a terror straight from the pits of hell.

Pretty much exactly this.

Most dogs are a reflection of their humans. Many people who get a small dog get one because they think they're easier to look after. They aren't necessarily, for one, but it's also commonly used as a reason to not train your dog at all, because if you can physically pick them up and take them away from a confrontation with another dog, or a human, why bother training them to not do that?

Not many people get big dogs and then keep them for long enough to badly train them. You wouldn't be able to - they're too smart and too strong and you'd just end up with everything in your house eaten by them when they were bored.

hedgie:
Often, they don’t do even the picking them up and carrying them away, until I threaten to kick the obnoxious rodent that is attacking.  If you want a pet that’s small and doesn’t need much training, get a cat, FFS.

pwhodges:
And the thing is that dogs (unlike cats!) take to training, because they want to please.  They actually enjoy being taught and learning to get it right, and having a real relationship with their humans - it's just the owners (some, that is) who are either too lazy or too ignorant to get that.

shanejayell:
New comic up.

Faye clearly is NOT into philosophy.
