If you've ever owned a big dog, you know how amazing it is to care for them. While big dogs may have a bad rep on the street (merely due to their looks), they're actually the sweetest and most gentle out of all their brothers and sisters. Don't get us wrong, there are obviously lots of big dangerous dogs, but in these cases, it's not the dog that's bad but the owner himself. Many people who own larger dogs don't realize that they have to pay extra attention to their dog's behavior and training because of their appearance. People on the street will automatically assume that the dog is reactive because of its size. Thus, as the owner, you must prove them wrong. Unless it's nighttime.
While their looks may seem like a disadvantage, we're here to say that that's completely not true. Quite the opposite actually. Because while their looks may bring on prejudice, it also provides a sense of protection and privilege. And by that, we mean that when you're walking your big scary teddy bear at night - you can rest assured that no one will bother you. With that being said, we hope you enjoy this collection of memes dedicated to large dog owners.
Scary dog privilege has advantages and disadvantages, depending on the time of day. Some people will see a large dog and automatically assume that he's mean and scary. When in reality he's just a goofy teddy bear.
But with the disadvantages, also come the advantages of owning a big dog. Like, for example, you feel safe walking alone with your dog at night past 9 pm. That's a pretty good deal if you ask us.
