That poor dog.

As someone who works with canines, nothing nauseates me more than to see people treating their dogs like babies. It's terrible for the dog, the owner, and everyone who has to interact with the dog in the long run.

Dogs need discipline, and to be taught who is alpha. If you don't occupy that position, they will occupy it themselves.

You'd think I wouldn't get so upset, since I see this all the time, but honestly that just makes it worse

It can get you a QT gf but eventually she'll dump you out of nowhere and then post all of the embarrassing text messages you sent her trying to get her back and then she'll publicly accuse you of being abusive and you'll lose a few thousand followers for it and then someone will spread a rumor that you like to play Arctic Monkeys during sex time and then release a video of you sucking your own dick
