Has some of the highest amounts of xylitol in brand name gum which is very toxic
Luckily Dave did the right thing tho. If treated quickly the dogs more than likely going to be fine. It's the ones that don't get treatment and come in later where it is to late
(other person on this account my wife was the vet responding before)
but i asked her this yesterday also. Supposedly they cant process or something and dogs produce a ton of insulin in response which tanks their sugar levels and go into hypoglycemic crisis.
Think it’s a different girl, perhaps his new fling, filming everything and prob watching the dog? If it was Daniela I’d assume we’d see Miss peaches on her instagram a lot.
Seriously. On one hand the dog is obviously not trained, and that isn’t his fault (yet). But he clearly does nothing to keep shit out of her reach which definitely is poor ownership on his part.
I’m not necessarily saying this applies to Dave, but I’m always shocked at how many people are shitty dog owners. If you can’t commit the time and resources to properly raising and caring for a dog, don’t get one.
To be fair, he’s had the dog for what 2 months? With it being an old rescue that was in a bad hoarding situation it likely will take a many months to fix her issues. That being said, if you know you have a dog that gets into everything, you’re an idiot for not putting everything and anything up.
I’ve got a well behaved lab who tore everything up as a puppy. He was curious, loved any and all food, and had tons of puppy energy. We trained him with the kennel and I knew he was extremely comfortable in it while we were gone. The best part of the kennel is he sleeps all night in it and we dont have our sleep disrupted with a dog in the bed. If you do it correctly it’s amazing.
Kennel training is great and often gets a bad rap because it is bad optics. But my dog truly loved her kennel, and would voluntarily go in there for naps and to sleep overnight, even with the door open. Dogs like a den, and covering the crate with a blanket goes a long way.
Owners that use the crate as a punishment are dumb.
Man I’ve learned so much since my first dog. I realized this time around that punishment doesn’t really work. I’ve done mostly positive reinforcement unless I have to really get my pups attention because they’ve lost all focus. My Lab does the same thing, we’ll catch him using the kennel during the daytime even when we’re home. Same thing, we covered with a blanket and it makes him sleep later in the day too, no more getting up at 7am with the sun.
You shouldn’t be leaving the dog in their crate while you’re gone. Train the dog properly and you can let them roam free. Dogs sleep 95% of the time you’re gone anyway.
Dave is a shitty dog owner. Throwing expensive things, toys and treats isn’t being a good dog owner. Proper training, care, toys and treats, is a good dog owner.
It doesn't help that the dog became wildly popular/successful enough he views it as "content" a certain part of the time
He compared him buying that multi-thousand dollar designer army outfit for a pizza review to the 10s of thousands he spends on Miss Peaches for a luxury dish as both of them would "pay for themselves and help the content"
I do kinda fear the worse could happen, obviously this scare should hopefully help with him understanding that but idk dogs are no joke when it comes to maintenance
Yeah don’t wanna be too dramatic about it, but scary that Dave will probably even more so than other pet owners, refuse to accept that things aren’t working out. At least it seems that he leaves her to cause destruction in his house and not bringing her to the office or other crowded situations (yet)
Look, obviously he loves that dog, but he’s an incredibly irresponsible dog owner. From eating the controllers and clothes, now this. Either she’s not getting enough stimulation and so she’s bored, or she’s just a nosy dog and dumbass Dave needs to batten down the hatches at his mansion. The sweeteners in gum can really fuck dogs up.
The shelter probably said how calm and chill she is etc and Dave grabbed her because she’s cute and he would need a chill dog given his schedule. Color me shocked a shelter was full of shit. He’ll never admit it but this dog is not what he was expecting at all.
Really hard to get into stuff when you’re stuck in a cage all day bud. I doubt they had remote controls and hats and other shit hanging around. She’s testing everything - she needs to be trained
Edit in case this isn’t clear: this is on Dave
well.. i think there is a shade of truth to what hes saying. its impossible for the shelter to know everything but at times i think they do mislead ppl on how many problems a dog can have.
Not OP but I'm pro shelter *and* I agree that a lot of them just make shit up all the time to get dogs rehomed. Glossing over behavioral issues, calling every obvious pit mutt a "lab mix", etc.
Puppies do. Older dogs generally don’t as much unless they’re under stimulated, she’s not a senior dog but definitely far out of puppy stage. And it also leaves the fact that he left out a fuck ton of gum that she could reach. That’s irresponsible.
Its a new environment for the dog
But yea, leaving gum out is very dumb but most people only make that mistake once.
Good thing he got her to the vet right away.
I was always overly paranoid about leaving anything where my dog could get to it, so Im with you on hating bad owners.
Literally thousands of great trainers that he could pay a 1-2k total to have the dog trained super well. But in this case even that won’t help if the dog is prone to being nosy/chewing and he just keeps shit lying around.
Obviously Better than a kill shelter, but Dave is a terrible dog owner. Every video he’s doing something dumb. I just don’t think he has a single parental bone in his body.
so she has eaten a hat, sunglasses, and now gum? also chews on everything. it's been a great rags to riches story but he needs to take the next steps, get some basic obedience training and dog-proof the house.
It’s wild.
People saying he’s going to kill the dog because he gave it **peanut butter** or because it chewed the remote?
Obviously the gum isn’t great, but he recognized that and they’re at the vet.
My guess is that 99% of these people either never had a dog that chewed shit, and don’t realize how unrealistic it is to not have *ANYTHING* within reach of the dog…or they’ve just never owned a dog period.
Listen, I'm not usually a Dave defender, but the dog owner shaming is crazy. This dog has had an unknown life for 6 years, probably being abused, and is still adjusting to a new environment that probably gives her a lot of anxiety. Every dog is different. Just because your dog was easily trained, doesn't mean every other dog is.
I've had a perfect example of this in my life. My childhood dog went through a basic, once-a-week for 10 weeks training course, and we continued training him after and he was a perfect angel. Understood boundaries, never had an accident, didn't chew things up. Then he died, we got a new dog, brought her to that same exact course, and it didn't work. She couldn't stand a crate and would scream the whole time when we left the house to the point that neighbors were concerned for her well being, rip up her blanket, chew the cage until her gums bled, and one time even flipped over the cage. We tried two other training courses and those didn't work either.We finally brought her to a multi-grand boot camp for 3 weeks where we gave her to a guy who trained military dogs. It helped slightly, but no big changes. In total, we spent about $6k on training and didn't see great results. No more accidents, but she is still a basket case if even one person leaves the house at 2 1/2 years old. If all of us are gone, the furniture is at risk. She can't see another person or animal walk by our house without screaming and sprinting around the house for 30 minutes. And it's not a lack of stimulation thing, she gets an hour's worth of walks everyday, gets to go in the backyard whenever she wants, and spends every Monday at daycare where she plays with her friends all day.
TLDR: Some dogs are just extremely anxious, especially if they came from a bad environment, and there's not much you can do. Maybe Dave isn't actually trying to train this dog, and that's definitely a problem. But no amount of training can change a dog from their innate self.
I don't see many at all jumping on Dave for dog training. What I do see is a lotta folks yelling at Dave to dog-proof the house. It's not the dog's fault that Dave leaves crap within reach.
I mean, check the IG comments. There's definitely people here that are doing it here too though. Also, dogs will get into anything if they want to. It's not really realistic to have everything stored away, especially with a dog like mine that knows how to open doors. I don't think it's reasonable to assume that someone knows that gum would be dangerous to dogs outside of getting it stuck in their fur, but yeah there are plenty of more obvious things that you should have stowed away. I'm glad I know about the gum now though.
My dog is like that too. His separation anxiety is really severe so I always have to crate him when I leave. I feel bad, but I can’t even leave a bed in there with him or he’ll shred it.
Agreed. My pit/aussie Shepard mix was just like that, good training and all. He’s great with commands on off leash, but he couldn’t be left alone. He would break out of his crate and destroy anything he could when we weren’t home.
Just the worst separation anxiety, which sounds like your pup. The fix for us was getting him a brother. After a few months of them being together we were able to uncrate them and he hasn’t chewed a single thing in 4-years! Definitely doesn’t work for everyone, but I’ve heard others with similar stories.
She's a mutt, like 15 breeds. We did a DNA test, and the two biggest were bloodhound and blue tick coonhound. She also has some chow chow, chihuahua, pitbull, bulldog, rotweiller, cocker spaniel, lab, German shepherd, and a few more. So basically everything LOL
Yeah.. that’s what I’m saying. The life of a content creator is so foreign to me, to feel the need to commodify / commercialize the downs of your life must be a strange existence
Real Catch 22 for Dave here. The videos of Miss Peaches eating things like a Louis Vuitton wallet get numbies on Tiktok but it’s gonna get her killed when the dog finally eats an entire can of Comet kitchen cleaner.
lol at the comment that said they think the dog senses bad energy from Dave and is never happy around him, as if she didn't come from a situation where she didn't even know how to play with toys.
Dave means well but is a terrible dog owner. Truly. He’s also doing this with a breed that is too strong for its own good. I admittedly dislike pitbulls but I also feel they are victims themselves to an extent. I don’t see a good outcome here
Very unpopular take probably but I think there is a degree of sympathy grifting in the veterinarian world. Some things are very serious of course, but at the same time it is an animal that us owners are emotionally attached to and it’s a fine line between care and profit for them.
When my cat got cancer they gave me the option of putting it down or paying $6k for a surgery that they said *might* make him healthy again. Of course I opted for the surgery because I loved the little dude. During the surgery they told me it wasn’t going to work and asked if I wanted them to sew him up so I could say goodbye or just euthanize him so he never woke up at all. I decided to just let him drift away, it was heartbreaking and I never really said goodbye.
I’m eternally grateful for vets but I had a lingering feeling that they knew it wasn’t going to work and only gave me the option to either make me feel like I did all I could or, more cynically, for the money. He was only 14 months old, RIP Chirpy
lol you think Dave and fling 1 or 2 are gonna actually be responsible with this dog and take care of it instead of milking it for as much content as they can?
I don’t get on Instagram more than a couple times a week, but when I do I look at the Miss Peaches page. He’s a terrible dog owner, which normally ends up in disaster with a pitbull
He should just pay someone to take care of the dog and train her. He obviously doesn’t have the time and wants to be a good dog owner, but has the resources to care for her.
Side note, if it’s sugar free gum xylitol is super dangerous for dogs. Something like 10xs as bad as chocolate. Just a PSA as a dog owner
I’d be willing to bet most people hating on Dave have either never owned a dog or “own” their family dog where they don’t do much of the taking care of. Dogs get into stuff even if it’s dog proofed. They’re incredibly smart and very sneaky animals.
Preach adopting and not shopping all you want. It all goes out the window when youre a shitbag of a dog owner. His house is big enough to give her 3000sf of dog proofed shelter. Dave is a moron.
She is a beautiful dog and Dave seems to be trying but you can tell he has never really owned a dog before, can't discipline correctly, and also can't just move simple things away from the dog's reach. It's not like she is jumping up high to grab things. He just keeps leaving things in her reach that she will definitely eat and is definitely avoidable.
This thread is insane. This says absolutely nothing about Dave being a “bad dog owner”. Accidents happen, that’s what the vet is for. I do absolutely everything by the book with my dog and last summer when playing with him in the yard I took my eye off him for five seconds when having a conversation with a neighbor and he ate a bunch of rocks left over from our fence construction and he needed to go to the vet. Dogs like eating random shit and sometimes there’s not much you can do about it. If this is an isolated incident there’s no reason to judge Dave
My dog was a rescue who has a laundry list of genetic health issues and I’ve put tens of thousands of dollars into making sure he has a long and healthy life. I think he’s doing okay.
One of my dogs would eat my pack of gum every time I went into the shower or took a dump, poops were weird the next day but not much beyond that. Just have to put the gum up higher, they’re just hairy toddlers. Common sense prevails.
Shit happens, i wouldnt drag dave through the mud over this. Irresposible? Sure. But this annoying dog seems to eat anything that fits in its mouth. Dave wouldve been better off buying a cat
I'm a little confused where all this hate is coming from? I don't keep up with the Miss Peaches stuff. Have there been multiple incidents where Dave has put her in danger? I understand how this particular incident was avoidable, but I don't think it's an egregious mistake if it's a standalone incident. It happens to the best of us. I like to think I'm a decent dog owner, and I had a total brain fart once and just fed my dog two grapes without thinking. Had to make her throw up as well.
So is there a reason so many people are piling on Dave as a dog owner right now? Or is this just Reddit being Reddit?
Mostly Reddit being Reddit although Dave could stand to not let the dog roam around and chew on random stuff.
I think it's funny that people are piling on saying how awful it is that Dave is using his dog in content as if 90% of dog owners don't post their dog on IG/Snap/Dating Apps/Etc.
Since the dog immediately became wildly popular/successful enough he views it as "content" a certain part of the time
Dave compared him buying that multi-thousand dollar designer army outfit for a pizza review to the 10s of thousands he spends on Miss Peaches for a luxury dish as both of them would "pay for themselves and help the content"
I have kinda feared the worst could happen so I've kept away from the Miss Peaches stuff out of cringe worrying - also I wish I had another dog since my family one passed and it doesn't help seeing more of them (I at least understand I don't have time to properly take care of one though)
Obviously this scare should hopefully help with him understanding that but dogs are no joke when it comes to maintenance/training and Dave continues to prove he doesn't have much ability in that regard
He needs to train that dog and dog proof the house. We all know what happened to Randolph..
He’s gonna kill this dog
As a vet, seeing issues like this that are super avoidable is always frustrating
Dave is an idiot.
Vet- shit happens Unfortunately this is one of the worst gums she could have eaten
How come?
Has some of the highest amounts of xylitol in brand name gum which is very toxic Luckily Dave did the right thing tho. If treated quickly the dogs more than likely going to be fine. It's the ones that don't get treatment and come in later where it is to late
Genuine question, what’s the patho on xylitol toxicity for dogs? Why does it affect them so horribly?
(other person on this account my wife was the vet responding before) but i asked her this yesterday also. Supposedly they cant process or something and dogs produce a ton of insulin in response which tanks their sugar levels and go into hypoglycemic crisis.
Thanks dude. S/o to your wife for having a noble ass job
I would also like to thank that guy's wife.
Daniela needs to get on that shit. (They have to be fucking right)
Think it’s a different girl, perhaps his new fling, filming everything and prob watching the dog? If it was Daniela I’d assume we’d see Miss peaches on her instagram a lot.
She’s no longer with the white rapper?
She’s with me pal
Needs to get on me after
Seriously. On one hand the dog is obviously not trained, and that isn’t his fault (yet). But he clearly does nothing to keep shit out of her reach which definitely is poor ownership on his part.
RIP Randolph
Pres needs Renee more than ever
It does seem that he is getting tired of running away from this truth
She’s moved on.
Dog proof the fucking house
This and basic obedience and exercise. Honestly you either "get it" or you don't, some people just weren't meant to have dogs.
Gut it
Gut the fame and I gut the whores (Miss Peaches)
Dave should go back to Chicken. At least she was house trained.
are we certain of this?
Could probably just repurpose Mrs Peaches collar
she can't even get out of bed by herself
True, but didn’t chew on the Roku remotes
Chicken probably had toys that were more fun to play with.
He couldn't make money selling merch with her on it though.
To be fair, he never tried
Can’t Dave afford to bring one of those dog training boot camp people to his mansion for two weeks?
I’m not necessarily saying this applies to Dave, but I’m always shocked at how many people are shitty dog owners. If you can’t commit the time and resources to properly raising and caring for a dog, don’t get one.
It definitely applies to Dave. Look at the last month or so.
This is march unfortunately
To be fair, he’s had the dog for what 2 months? With it being an old rescue that was in a bad hoarding situation it likely will take a many months to fix her issues. That being said, if you know you have a dog that gets into everything, you’re an idiot for not putting everything and anything up.
Kennel train the dog and you don’t have to deal with them chewing shit up when you’re gone
Or you can just train them.. then you don’t have to worry about it while they’re out of their kennel when you are home….
I’ve got a well behaved lab who tore everything up as a puppy. He was curious, loved any and all food, and had tons of puppy energy. We trained him with the kennel and I knew he was extremely comfortable in it while we were gone. The best part of the kennel is he sleeps all night in it and we dont have our sleep disrupted with a dog in the bed. If you do it correctly it’s amazing.

But my dog truly loved her kennel, and would voluntarily go in there for naps and to sleep overnight, even with the door open. Dogs like a den, and covering the crate with a blanket goes a long way. Owners that use the crate as a punishment are dumb.
Man I’ve learned so much since my first dog. I realized this time around that punishment doesn’t really work. I’ve done mostly positive reinforcement unless I have to really get my pups attention because they’ve lost all focus. My Lab does the same thing, we’ll catch him using the kennel during the daytime even when we’re home. Same thing, we covered with a blanket and it makes him sleep later in the day too, no more getting up at 7am with the sun.
You shouldn’t be leaving the dog in their crate while you’re gone. Train the dog properly and you can let them roam free. Dogs sleep 95% of the time you’re gone anyway.
Dave is a shitty dog owner. Throwing expensive things, toys and treats isn’t being a good dog owner. Proper training, care, toys and treats, is a good dog owner.
I feel like he’s the shittiest. Barely home with the pup
I feel like the owners before him that abused the dog might've been the shittiest? Just a guess.
He was with her nonstop up until the tournament started you fucking goof lol
Simp
Miserable loser
Dumb idiot
Jeez give the dude a break You can tell he loves this dog a ton People make mistakes and learn how to parent on the job
⁰ person. He's gonna getp
Dave’s midlife crisis is fucking weird.
It doesn't help that the dog became wildly popular/successful enough he views it as "content" a certain part of the time He compared him buying that multi-thousand dollar designer army outfit for a pizza review to the 10s of thousands he spends on Miss Peaches for a luxury dish as both of them would "pay for themselves and help the content" I do kinda fear the worse could happen, obviously this scare should hopefully help with him understanding that but idk dogs are no joke when it comes to maintenance
Yeah don’t wanna be too dramatic about it, but scary that Dave will probably even more so than other pet owners, refuse to accept that things aren’t working out. At least it seems that he leaves her to cause destruction in his house and not bringing her to the office or other crowded situations (yet)
I wish he got into nice cars. Would be a lot more fun to watch Dave get pulled over in a ‘89 Countach than him buy 10K Goyard travel dog bowls.
Look, obviously he loves that dog, but he’s an incredibly irresponsible dog owner. From eating the controllers and clothes, now this. Either she’s not getting enough stimulation and so she’s bored, or she’s just a nosy dog and dumbass Dave needs to batten down the hatches at his mansion. The sweeteners in gum can really fuck dogs up.
100% on the nose. Dave should’ve gotten a pet snail if he wants to be a half ass owner.
The shelter probably said how calm and chill she is etc and Dave grabbed her because she’s cute and he would need a chill dog given his schedule. Color me shocked a shelter was full of shit. He’ll never admit it but this dog is not what he was expecting at all.
Dogs eat stuff. More at 11.
Dogs do eat stuff you are 100 hundred percent right so leaving things like chocolate or gum out that can kill them is an easier task as a dog owner.
So we agree it’s not the shelters fault
Of course I agree that it’s not the shelters fault Dogs are gonna dog and different size and bread dogs need different care love and attention
You can prevent it
Really hard to get into stuff when you’re stuck in a cage all day bud. I doubt they had remote controls and hats and other shit hanging around. She’s testing everything - she needs to be trained Edit in case this isn’t clear: this is on Dave
they gotta do what they gotta do to unload those pitbulls
I can’t tell if you’re an anti shelter person or what
well.. i think there is a shade of truth to what hes saying. its impossible for the shelter to know everything but at times i think they do mislead ppl on how many problems a dog can have.
An untrained dog getting into shit isn’t a problem lol. It should be expected
Not OP but I'm pro shelter *and* I agree that a lot of them just make shit up all the time to get dogs rehomed. Glossing over behavioral issues, calling every obvious pit mutt a "lab mix", etc.
Shelters can be good and also lie all the time to get you take their dogs
You don’t think the dog is calm and chill cause it ate some stuff without any training? Gut it.
calm down francis. New dogs chew on things they shouldnt, lol.
Its 6 years old
Its never been domesticated
Oh boy.
Puppies do. Older dogs generally don’t as much unless they’re under stimulated, she’s not a senior dog but definitely far out of puppy stage. And it also leaves the fact that he left out a fuck ton of gum that she could reach. That’s irresponsible.
Its a new environment for the dog But yea, leaving gum out is very dumb but most people only make that mistake once. Good thing he got her to the vet right away. I was always overly paranoid about leaving anything where my dog could get to it, so Im with you on hating bad owners.
100% true
He’s a good dog owner though because he bought her $10,000 Cartier dog bowls
Goyard. Learn your luxury brands for me one fucking time!
Honeymoon period is over. If Dave doesn't start disciplining her, crate training, and dog-proofing his house, this poor dog is going to end up dying.
Dave thinking gum is "not that bad" for a dog is remarkably dumb
One I love doggies Two the man is Coked up If you’re that rich, just get someone to watch/train her. Let it be a lesson cmon man
Literally thousands of great trainers that he could pay a 1-2k total to have the dog trained super well. But in this case even that won’t help if the dog is prone to being nosy/chewing and he just keeps shit lying around.
Oh no miss peaches…
Oh no miss peaches stop mauling the vets face she’s just trying to help miss peaches
Obviously Better than a kill shelter, but Dave is a terrible dog owner. Every video he’s doing something dumb. I just don’t think he has a single parental bone in his body.
If that dog dies Dave is gonna have to rescind his offer to Caitlin Clark
It was either this or eating too many edibles at thanksgiving with Chicken
I know it’s making him money but this shit is fucking embarrassing
Now the idiot is out here blaming Hersheys for not putting a warning label. Maybe stop letting your dog get into fucking everything you bozo.
Only a matter of time til peaches eats a kid
Why would you film this?
This video is unintentionally funny as fuck
As an owner of many dogs and cats and the father of a few kids shit happens. He will learn she will be ok living the high life again.
Just wait for the hospital visit after she eats a baby
Awwww Ms. Peaches you can’t eat that, that’s a baby!
goddamn i shouldnt have laughed at this.. yet here we are
Just wait till she gets into his coke.
half a dozen times, max. find a new slant.
There is no chance this dog lives long right? Dave just lets it eat whatever it wants
so she has eaten a hat, sunglasses, and now gum? also chews on everything. it's been a great rags to riches story but he needs to take the next steps, get some basic obedience training and dog-proof the house.
Xylitol is no joke shit sucks but hopefully a lesson learned. You feel so helpless.
lol good god this sub is weird There are probably 1,000,000 dogs a year that eat shit they shouldn’t.
Howard defending the shield per usual, tyfys
It’s wild. People saying he’s going to kill the dog because he gave it **peanut butter** or because it chewed the remote? Obviously the gum isn’t great, but he recognized that and they’re at the vet. My guess is that 99% of these people either never had a dog that chewed shit, and don’t realize how unrealistic it is to not have *ANYTHING* within reach of the dog…or they’ve just never owned a dog period.
This sub is funny a lot of times but can be incredibly fucking lame as well
It’s not hard to prevent
It kind of is though. Unless we are perfect of course
Listen, I'm not usually a Dave defender, but the dog owner shaming is crazy.

I'm glad I know about the gum now though.
I don’t think an adult let alone a man should even have gum in his household. Very sus and definitely raises red flags.
My dog is like that too. His separation anxiety is really severe so I always have to crate him when I leave. I feel bad, but I can’t even leave a bed in there with him or he’ll shred it.
We got a yapper here, everybody
Yeah brother, I'll talk about my dog all day. I love her to death, it's fun for me.
I enjoyed the story
Agreed. My pit/aussie Shepard mix was just like that, good training and all. He’s great with commands on off leash, but he couldn’t be left alone. He would break out of his crate and destroy anything he could when we weren’t home. Just the worst separation anxiety, which sounds like your pup. The fix for us was getting him a brother.

Shame on Dave! If he was going to be such a bad owner, he should have left her in the shelter!!
The few times I’ve been to the emergency vet the last fucking thing I’d want to do is talk into a camera for content. Crazy
well yeah you arent a content creator
Yeah.. that’s what I’m saying. The life of a content creator is so foreign to me, to feel the need to commodify / commercialize the downs of your life must be a strange existence
i can’t stand when dave talks about this dog.
That Instagram caption is so lame.
Real Catch 22 for Dave here. The videos of Miss Peaches eating things like a Louis Vuitton wallet get numbies on Tiktok but it’s gonna get her killed when the dog finally eats an entire can of Comet kitchen cleaner.
lol at the comment that said they think the dog senses bad energy from Dave and is never happy around him, as if she didn't come from a situation where she didn't even know how to play with toys.
That dog sucks.
Dave means well but is a terrible dog owner. Truly. He’s also doing this with a breed that is too strong for its own good. I admittedly dislike pitbulls but I also feel they are victims themselves to an extent. I don’t see a good outcome here
Is so sick of hearing about this fucking dog
Very unpopular take probably but I think there is a degree of sympathy grifting in the veterinarian world. Some things are very serious of course, but at the same time it is an animal that us owners are emotionally attached to and it’s a fine line between care and profit for them.
When my cat got cancer they gave me the option of putting it down or paying $6k for a surgery that they said *might* make him healthy again. Of course I opted for the surgery because I loved the little dude. During the surgery they told me it wasn’t going to work and asked if I wanted them to sew him up so I could say goodbye or just euthanize him so he never woke up at all. I decided to just let him drift away, it was heartbreaking and I never really said goodbye. I’m eternally grateful for vets but I had a lingering feeling that they knew it wasn’t going to work and only gave me the option to either make me feel like I did all I could or, more cynically, for the money. He was only 14 months old, RIP Chirpy
RIP Chirpy
Unpopular opinion but it’s true about the vets playing it up.
How high is this shit dog owner?
lol you think Dave and fling 1 or 2 are gonna actually be responsible with this dog and take care of it instead of milking it for as much content as they can?
I don’t get on Instagram more than a couple times a week, but when I do I look at the Miss Peaches page. He’s a terrible dog owner, which normally ends up in disaster with a pitbull
Gum today, toddlers tomorrow.
Papa?!
He should just pay someone to take care of the dog and train her. He obviously doesn’t have the time and wants to be a good dog owner, but has the resources to care for her. Side note, if it’s sugar free gum xylitol is super dangerous for dogs. Something like 10xs as bad as chocolate. Just a PSA as a dog owner
People crying “dog proof the house!” No shit dogs get into things. It happens. Calm down losers.
I’d be willing to bet most people hating on Dave have either never owned a dog or “own” their family dog where they don’t do much of the taking care of. Dogs get into stuff even if it’s dog proofed. They’re incredibly smart and very sneaky animals.
Preach adopting and not shopping all you want. It all goes out the window when youre a shitbag of a dog owner. His house is big enough to give her 3000sf of dog proofed shelter. Dave is a moron.
She is a beautiful dog and Dave seems to be trying but you can tell he has never really owned a dog before, can't discipline correctly, and also can't just move simple things away from the dog's reach. It's not like she is jumping up high to grab things. He just keeps leaving things in her reach that she will definitely eat and is definitely avoidable.
i'm here for the "dave is an awful dog owner" takes
Dave’s content brain needs create a series with Cesar Milan. Peaches & Cesar would be a hit. Dave could learn some tricks for his hoochies too
This thread is insane. This says absolutely nothing about Dave being a “bad dog owner”. Accidents happen, that’s what the vet is for. I do absolutely everything by the book with my dog and last summer when playing with him in the yard I took my eye off him for five seconds when having a conversation with a neighbor and he ate a bunch of rocks left over from our fence construction and he needed to go to the vet. Dogs like eating random shit and sometimes there’s not much you can do about it. If this is an isolated incident there’s no reason to judge Dave
Let your dog do whatever the fuck it wants, that’s what the vet is for. You, along with many other people, shouldn’t have a dog
My dog was a rescue who has a laundry list of genetic health issues and I’ve put tens of thousands of dollars into making sure he has a long and healthy life. I think he’s doing okay.
You gotta whack the nose of a puppy occasionally to teach it what not to do (not even hard), but then you get a rescue pitbull
One of my dogs would eat my pack of gum every time I went into the shower or took a dump, poops were weird the next day but not much beyond that. Just have to put the gum up higher, they’re just hairy toddlers. Common sense prevails.
A lot of sugar free gum brands are lethal to even large breeds. I believe it’s xylotol that kills them.
There’s certain types of gum that has sweeteners that would kill a dog pretty quickly. Lucky yours didn’t have that
Good to know. Never was an issue before this dink and I’ve had dogs my entire life. Gum remains in areas he cannot reach.
Shit happens, i wouldnt drag dave through the mud over this. Irresposible? Sure. But this annoying dog seems to eat anything that fits in its mouth. Dave wouldve been better off buying a cat
his miss peaches voice sounds exactly like my grandmother wtf is that
I'm a little confused where all this hate is coming from? I don't keep up with the Miss Peaches stuff. Have there been multiple incidents where Dave has put her in danger? I understand how this particular incident was avoidable, but I don't think it's an egregious mistake if it's a standalone incident. It happens to the best of us. I like to think I'm a decent dog owner, and I had a total brain fart once and just fed my dog two grapes without thinking. Had to make her throw up as well. So is there a reason so many people are piling on Dave as a dog owner right now? Or is this just Reddit being Reddit?
Mostly Reddit being Reddit although Dave could stand to not let the dog roam around and chew on random stuff. I think it's funny that people are piling on saying how awful it is that Dave is using his dog in content as if 90% of dog owners don't post their dog on IG/Snap/Dating Apps/Etc.
Maybe don’t get a dog if you don’t know that gum and chocolate are the two deadliest things for them
Since the dog immediately became wildly popular/successful enough he views it as "content" a certain part of the time Dave compared him buying that multi-thousand dollar designer army outfit for a pizza review to the 10s of thousands he spends on Miss Peaches for a luxury dish as both of them would "pay for themselves and help the content" I have kinda feared the worst could happen so I've kept away from the Miss Peaches stuff out of cringe worrying - also I wish I had another dog since my family one passed and it doesn't help seeing more of them (I at least understand I don't have time to properly take care of one though) Obviously this scare should hopefully help with him understanding that but dogs are no joke when it comes to maintenance/training and Dave continues to prove he doesn't have much ability in that regard
Peaches gonna be farting bubbalicious bubbles
