A community about dogs.

Breeds, tips and tricks about training and behaviour, news affecting dog owners, canine photography, dog-related art and any questions related to dog ownership.

Rules

  1. Posts must be related to dogs or dog ownership and must not be void of content.
  2. This is a neutral space. No bigotry or personal attacks. Criticism should be polite and constructive.
  3. No automated content. This includes AI generated imagery, post body, articles, comments or automated accounts.
  4. No advertising or self-promotion.
  5. Illegal or unethical practices are frowned upon, and any comments or posts suggesting them will be removed. This includes, but is not limited to, backyard breeding, ear and tail cropping, fake service animals, negative reinforcement, alpha/pack/dominance theory, and eugenics.
  6. No judging or attacking community members who care for dogs with cropped ears, docked tails, or those from puppy mills or questionable sources. While we discourage these practices (per Rule 5), all dogs deserve loving homes and compassionate care regardless of their background or physical alterations.
  7. No breed discrimination, all breeds welcome. Our stance matches the ASPCA's official stance and is not up for debate.
  8. Citing your sources when making a claim is encouraged. Misinformation will be removed.

Sorry, this is a community for posting dog pictures. To post a picture of your duck, try !quackers@lemmy.world

What is that thing supposed to look like when it isn't dog shaped?

[–] jaaake@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago

I genuinely thought it was supposed to be a Jar Jar Binks oven mitt, but can find no evidence of such a product.

I have some kind of like that, they only cover the fingers. Very handy, very easy to clean

[–] acockworkorange@mander.xyz 3 points 2 days ago

Clearly not handy, but fingery.

[–] finitebanjo@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

Oh I get it, some kind of silicon oven mit. Like a cooking pot holder.
