A community about dogs.

Breeds, tips and tricks about training and behaviour, news affecting dog owners, canine photography, dog-related art and any questions related to dog ownership.

Rules

  1. Posts must be related to dogs or dog ownership and must not be void of content.
  2. This is a neutral space. No bigotry or personal attacks. Criticism should be polite and constructive.
  3. No automated content. This includes AI generated imagery, post body, articles, comments or automated accounts.
  4. No advertising or self-promotion.
  5. Illegal or unethical practices are frowned upon, and any comments or posts suggesting them will be removed. This includes, but is not limited to, backyard breeding, ear and tail cropping, fake service animals, negative reinforcement, alpha/pack/dominance theory, and eugenics.
  6. No judging or attacking community members who care for dogs with cropped ears, docked tails, or those from puppy mills or questionable sources. While we discourage these practices (per Rule 5), all dogs deserve loving homes and compassionate care regardless of their background or physical alterations.
  7. No breed discrimination, all breeds welcome. Our stance matches the ASPCA's official stance and is not up for debate.
  8. Citing your sources when making a claim is encouraged. Misinformation will be removed.

MODERATORS
 

Hi!

I'm @isVeryLoud@lemmy.ca, I'm the new moderator for this community as the previous moderators have been missing for over a year.

I've cleaned up some AI-generated content that has been posted here recently and removed some posts that were void of content.

I have a second account, @isVeryLoud@lemmy.world, promoted to moderator so I can consult the modlog for this community.

The rules have been updated to better reflect what belongs and does not belong in this community.

Please do not hesitate to reach out below or via PM if you have any suggestions regarding the new rules.

Dog tax attached. This is Daisy.

Cheers!

I'm sorry for your loss, hopefully you found another pup to fill the sheltie-shaped hole in your heart!

My schedule didn't allow for a pupper unfortunately...but I've been hit by the CDS....3 times.

But I'll add a pup to the mix when I have the space next
