Supposedly, humanity rests in pet adoration. “Are you even human?” they’ll ponder after watching me remain indifferent in the presence of a palm-sized pooch. “How can that be possible?” friends and strangers alike always ask me. Here’s the thing: I hate dogs.Ĭue the inevitable cries of shock, disgust, and terror. You will not catch me cooing every time a furry four-legged beast comes my way. From the endless Instagram dog accounts to the bulldogs stopping traffic on the streets, they’re everywhere I turn. These furry creatures already get enough attention without an official 365-day period of dedication.
2018 is almost over, and with it will come the end of the year of the dog.
