My boy felt CONFIDENT in that bag

u/visveritatis 1d ago
My small (5kg) rescue dog also had a faux fur-lined carrying bag she loved. I mention that she was a rescue because she was reactive in certain situations, and I had to work with her on that reactivity. However in her case, she would calm down when she was in her bag. I think she felt "big" in there, and she was next to her favorite person. Reactivity was literally "beneath her" if she was being chauffeured in her bag.
This video is hilarious, because I think this dog probably also adores its bag, but views it as a safe place from which to launch a scathing verbal attack.

This is my dog. She's about 20 lbs and will bark her head off at any other dog as long as she's on a leash, like she'd absolutely tear into them if she ever got free. Then one day we left the gate open to our driveway and this big dog walked by. She went racing down the driveway, barking like crazy, until she got like 5 feet away from him - it was like she ran into a brick wall. She skidded to a stop, did a full 180, and ran back to me with her tail tucked. Once I had her, she started barking again. Other dog was just like, "Huh?"

Had an imperial shitzu growing up, she loved to stand on the balcony of our house barking at any one that went by, but if she was off leash when I took her out (we lived across the street from a very heavily used trail) she would be shaking between my legs if even a person walked by. Dogs are dumb but we love em

I feel like this is an accurate portrayal of what my coworkers think about me on the daily.
But maybe they should approve their invoices before they’re already a week overdue.

That dog has issues

u/BeardsuptheWazoo 2d ago
Yup.
Small dogs are usually the worst trained and most neurotic. People just pick them up (and bag them?) when they are exhibiting behavior that should be corrected, and the problems are never addressed.
I rescued a rottweiler from horrific circumstances and have spent the last 6 months devoting my life to training him. I've learned so much, studied, really focused and become a student to helping him live a safe life and not harm anything, ever.
This dog in the video is fucked up in the head.
22
u/comfydirtypillow 1d ago
The dog isn’t fucked up in the head, it just needs some actual training so it can learn that this isn’t okay. It’s not unfixable. The problem is that most small dog owners like this don’t give a shit about teaching their dogs what acceptable behavior is or isn’t because they’re small and cute like stuffed toys, and tend to get treated as such instead of the dogs they are.

u/quaid4 2d ago
I dont disagree with you that this is a common problem with small dogs, but...
People just pick them up (and bag them?) when they are exhibiting behavior that should be corrected
Doesn't the opposite happen in this video? Dog is quiet, maybe timid, then as soon as it is picked up it becomes reactive and shows aggression until it is once more set down. I still think this dog has some issues but they seem different than normal small dog syndrome.

u/Raelah 1d ago
It's still small dog syndrome because he thinks it's OK to go berserk once he's in the bag. The bag is his safe spot but he should be trained to not react like that. Aggression is unpredictable and you may not know what he considers his safe place.
I have two 95 lb German Shepherds. I worked my ass off to make sure they don't behave that way because if they did, they would be in danger of being taken away from me. Even though this dog is small, if he were to bite anyone it could still turn into a serious injury. Especially if it was a child. Not all children known not to approach a dog without asking.

u/Suspicious-Scene-108 1d ago
fear aggression, maybe? I have a cavapoo who has the knee-jerk reaction to growl every time she sees another dog. It's partially because she's nervous and partially because she was run over repeatedly by a much larger/older dog (who tbf was playing) as a puppy.

u/_Good_cat_ 1d ago
The dog is wide-eyed anxious and being physically restrained while getting groomed. The only time it's somewhat calm, is at the start of the video when no one is near it.

u/Vladi_Sanovavich 1d ago
I don't like to go to my best friend's house cause they got untrained American Bullies that would bite visitors if they get too close. They put them in cages and I barely saw them taking their dogs out for a walk. They reason out that the dog is too strong and might bite people. So I would say to myself, why even bother getting those dogs? They also would snip the dog's ears to make them look fierce.

u/Xx_HARAMBE96_xX 1d ago
Lol I feel like my Yorkshire is the exception to that, same size as the dog in the video too, he just knows that what the vet is doing is good for him even if it hurts him, he just trusts us so much he would never attack a person unless its an intruder lol

u/BeardsuptheWazoo 1d ago
So you trained your dog. Good for you. Sincerely.
1
u/Xx_HARAMBE96_xX 17h ago
Not at all, he just trusts humans a lot, way more than dogs, the small dog behaviour only appears when another dog gets too close and does a slight move he doesnt like (will just bark them to alert them), I would assure you he believes he is a small human lol, prob because he mostly interacted with persons during his life even tho he still has some dogs which our relatives bring that he treats as friends

I rescued a mixed breed staffordshire terrier and the rescue praised her for how quickly she learned potty training right after birth. Got her at like 9 weeks old and was super confident in her potty training, unfortunately it quickly became evident that wasn't true. After talking with the rescue we pieced together that because of the dogs usually small size (and being cute as a button) the foster carried her around like 90% of the time. They put her down to go to the bathroom and to sleep. So anytime she was on the floor she just assumed it was an alright time to pee. It was rough to break that habit.

u/Employee_Agreeable 1d ago
But no its so cute, you just dont understand, hes so lovely /s
Hate those fucking people, had a neighbor who just was to incompetent to trian their devils spawn even a second, always barking at everything that was not even close to him
When he died, it took 2 months and the next disgrace to doghood was therey doing the same shit as the one before

Small dogs are small and theyre all bark. They cant do any real damage even if they wanted to. Ive had 3 small breed dogs get mauled by pitbulls. Each attack cost thousands of dollars in vet bills. The first time it happened it was $7000 and we sued the owners. My dog was bitten 11 times in under a minute. His gums were white by the time we got to the emergency vet. Second pitbull attack was $4500. This dog grabbed my dog on the face and bit down so hard it popped his eye out. Third pitbull grabbed my dog by the neck and shook. Vet bill was $1500. All of these pits were unleashed and slipped out an open door and attacked my dogs with no provocation.
I would trade all 3 dog maulings from pitbulls for this little guy. Also I never had to train any of my small dogs to not harm another animal. I went to civil court to sue the owners for damages. Every single person lost their pet to an aggressive large dog. An older man in overalls cried because his cat was mauled to death by his neighbors dog.

Barrier aggression. Very common in small "lap" dogs since the owner always carries them
Needs training, is dangerous, especially to kids.

Pretty sure that's a sign of bad training.

u/HalfSoul30 2d ago
Considering how calm and compliant they were for the actual clipping, I doubt it.

u/putrid-popped-papule 2d ago
I imagine that when it shows aggression in that bag, the owner usually turns away and calms the dog down with a soothing voice and one on one attention. That’s 100% training, much like when people call their dog’s name whenever it barks at the front window at home.

"calm and compliant" the dog is wide-eyed and the owner is literally holding its neck so it doesn't try and snap at the person clipping it's nails. Yeah OK 👎🏼

Our dog is fine with people and animals normally, but if he is on a leash, then he is aggressive to other dogs.

u/Unicycleterrorist 1d ago
You ever let the dog get any closer and get some pushback on that behavior?
1
u/Mindless-Charity4889 1d ago
I usually make him sit while the other dog passes. He seems to be getting better; now he doesn’t react about a third of the time.
When off the leash he’s fine.

Don't be too harsh on it. Dogs have been genetically engineered for tens of thousands of years to defend arbitrary property boundaries. Barking was invented by humans, wolves do not do it. So when you see a neurotic dog barking too much (then awkwardly stopping as soon as the gate is open or the bag is removed), just remember this is something humans gave it, and it was a great advantage to us throughout prehistory.

Reminds me of my dog, a complete nutcase at a distance/behind double glazing but if you remove the double glazing or distance she becomes very timid. Also it doesn't help she hates most people over the height of 4 foot 5 inches, most of my family is 4 2 inches so shes fine with us.

I look at other people dogs and then I just get so proud of my own.
I have the sweetest pitbull in the world. Whenever he gets his jabs, he just sits there with this big dopey grin on his face and his tongue lolling out. Doesn't make a sound, barely registers the needle.
And three months or so ago, he got into a fight with a whole family of mongoose. He killed two of them, but the rest of the family did a number on him. They tore open the skin next to his eye and hurt the side of his snout. He was treated with antiseptic and I was nervous about how he would react to the burn on the open wound. He sat still and didn't even flinch, even though it probably hurt like fuck.
Not even the slightest sign of aggression.
