Thanks for pointing that out. I genuinely thought that was the case!

(My dog uses the native Discord client because he's too cheap to pay for a baby cam.)




Have you tried to increase the allowance for your dog?


Maybe the lazy dog should get a part-time job like rescuing people in the Alps while carrying a little barrel of liquor or barking at people with drugs, money or fruit at the airport.


Sort of. He just had a bath and my partner fed him. But we had to bribe him with a grissini to get into the tub.

Can you pay for Discord in grissinis?


Hold on, I'm making a deck right now to get funding for such a marketplace.


Your dog has more financial acumen than some humans...


Come on, your dog has a ruff life…:)

Serious question though, do you use it as a dog monitor? That’s a good idea.


Yeah, he has his own separate account and a video channel.

This way both my partner and I can check up on him if we both leave the house for longer and it's noisy outside. He's a rescue and sometimes gets anxious/loud, but he's getting better.

Side effect: once I came home to spot him with my brothers who live across the continent chatting and drinking beer.


That’s an excellent idea for rescues. I’m going to pass a link to your comment to a couple of friends who are heavily involved in animal rescues - it sounds like an excellent way to help dogs through trauma! Thanks so much for sharing!

Your last paragraph gave me a funny mental image of your dog sitting in front of a monitor, beer in paw, chatting with your brothers! :)


That's a tall tail now
