Rules

Posts must be related to dogs or dog ownership and must not be void of content.
This is a neutral space. No bigotry or personal attacks. Criticism should be polite and constructive.
No automated content. This includes AI generated imagery, post body, articles, comments or automated accounts.
No advertising or self-promotion.
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.
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.
No breed discrimination, all breeds welcome. Our stance matches the ASPCA’s official stance and is not up for debate.
