This might be a bit inappropriate but it definitely goes along the lines of weird dog owners so I thought maybe I could get some insight.
I was told recently that masterbating young male dogs for protection sports matures them and essentially makes them better workers. Not only did I find this pretty disgusting I also find it pretty absurd. I was told that the reason so many competition stud dogs are so muscular is because of breeding. It increases their testosterone and therefore makes them more mature mentally and physically. I couldn't really say much in the conversation other than something like "um, okay." It was too awkward. I mean, I admit I could be wrong, but I just don't see how masturbation brings on maturity in any way. And I certainly don't plan on ever fumbling around that area of my dog if I don't have to.

I'm a weird judge of what is considered "strange," I find it strange that anyone would let their dogs sleep in their beds. But since opening the shop, I've encountered a lot of truly unusual dog owners.
I have one girl who claims she can "talk" to dogs. She told me that Hank says he is upset b/c Rose won't let him in her crate. Oddly, she had earlier overheard me telling my Mom's trainer that Rose retires to her crate and growls if he nears, after tiring of his play.
Another woman is convinced the fluoride in drinking water makes dogs "brains go bad." One man informed me he can tell that Rose is a "game dog" because she lays with her legs splayed. And all this time I thought it was because she was hot and the tile floor is cool. My favorite has to be the lady who informed me that the reason you don't see pork in dog foods is because "you are what you eat, and pigs are fear-based, greedy animals" and we don't want that in our dogs. I have one more to share about breaking up fights, but it's not as family-friendly.
The fluoride thing is big in conspiracy theory. People think that the government puts it in the water to make people easier to brainwash. I have never heard of anybody talking about it in regards to dogs.
I know somebody who chases her mini poodle around with a dust buster when shes being naughty

It's the weirdest thing I've heard yet too.
You can delete the post Connie. No reason to keep it if it's offensive to anyone
Also, I've heard the flouride thing with people and dogs. I had a professor that was the most conspiracy influenced person I've ever met in my life (the woman version of Alex Jones). She believe the same thing, and also felt all the crap put in dog food was on purpose to kill our pets.

I allow my female to sleep on my bed with me at night. I think that allowing a dog on your bed, if that is your choice, only becomes an issue if you have a dog that is not under you control. If I tell her to get off, she does. No problem. She does not get on it during the day or without my calling her up there.
