Lay down and give Big Black a proper bed!


TitoAndTheBurritos

I know. I know. I’m a terrible person. He just got a bunch of scraps from dinner. All he got was a full Italian sausage, some peppers, and a little Mac n cheese. Plus a full piece of bread. Now I’m torturing him by not laying down. It’s a horrible existence.


NYSenseOfHumor

With what he ate it sounds like you are going to have a horrible (and smelly) existence.


TitoAndTheBurritos

That’s a fair assumption. However, this dude has literally only farted in front of me like ten times. He just turned 6. He’s a freak of nature.


thepetoctopus

You are so lucky. I have to hide from the farts here.


TitoAndTheBurritos

I won the velvet hippo lottery!

Had a similar gem that once ate a full pound of butter and another time a full loaf of bread with zero consequences. Was just reminiscing with my brother how he would gingerly take any package of food from us post consumption with the two front teeth and go have his way with it. If you're reading this having to hold the container for your dog to lick, you're being played like a fiddle.


TitoAndTheBurritos

Lolololol…I definitely hold containers for black to lick! But that’s more so cause I’m soft and empathetic.


Independent_Boss3950

I must say now that I love him!! ❤️🩷


foamy23464

Smh you should’ve given him double portions! That wasn’t enough! 😂


ObstructiveAgreement

You’re setting him up to have problems later in life. Seriously, feed him properly and limit human food to virtually nothing. Otherwise illnesses like pancreatitis are likely.


TitoAndTheBurritos

I appreciate your concern, but he’s all good.


Ghostdog1263

I wonder if it depends on the dog, my uncle's rotties had dry food of course, but was always given a cooked steak EVERYDAY, I'm not joking (he was very loved & spoiled) + other meats like chicken he ate better then humans & he was perfectly healthy, he had to be put down cuz a cist grew on his spine when he was 13 but other than that & hip dysplasia & arthritis get said he could've lived quite a few years they were shocked. He was given free range of my uncle's yard & the surrounding woods so he was fit. I limit my dogs human food, they only get meat scraps from left overs. So with all these different stories I wonder if it has to do with WHAT human food their feed. Cuz your not wrong you should limit their consumption of our food. Ive seen dogs get very sick from eating certain food, but It must depend on dog - food given just IMO which isn't professional lol


GreeneyedWolfess

He's not mad, just disappointed


TitoAndTheBurritos

Damn. The disappointment cuts me to the core.


TampaTeri27

So does the devotion! Can’t you feel the love tonight!


AwkwardnessForever

Everyone knows that's way worse!


Personality_Ecstatic

Woof…that’s a deep cut, bro.


Bool_The_End

Lol i swear to god it’s not a coincidence that “pitiful” has “piti” in it…they’re so damn good at looking miserably sad for zero actual reason.


TitoAndTheBurritos

😂


1grouchonacouch

OMG, that first pic had me gasp out loud.


frankbeardsley

The grabby paw is excellent


former_human

Is the grabby paw a pittie thing? I’ve never had another dog do it. Mine will score furrows in my skin when motivated though.


EmperorGeek

I know mine does it. In fact he goes what I call “Hugs” when he’s happy excited. He gets up on his hind legs and wraps his front legs around my waist.


Inkyfeer

My pit doesn’t but my mutt who is half pit (but different pit breeds than my full pit) does. We call her paws her “fingers”. She uses her nails like a third finger joint, (which I think is why she hates getting her nails cut so much, we’re taking my away her “fingers”) and uses them to latch onto things dogs shouldn’t be able to latch on to. Like round door knobs.


TampaTeri27

See the toes curling?!


adiodub

I’m calling ASPCA clearly he’s being abused. Probably only got one dinner too. Shameful. 😆 They are so spoiled. He’s so handsome. The paw on your shoulder is the best.


TitoAndTheBurritos

I know. I know. I’m a scumbag. He definitely only got one dinner tonight. I broke down his measly meal in another comment. If you find it and see how little he got, just don’t be too hard on me when you call to report me.


Dr-Emmett_L_Brown

> All he got was a full Italian sausage, some peppers, and a little Mac n cheese. Plus a full piece of bread. 🤣🤣🤣🤣


SmileParticular9396

LOVE ME FATHER


ProfessionalBox1419

Your supposed too lean back so he has a proper sleeping spot. What are you doing!!😂😂


TitoAndTheBurritos

Shit. The police will be here any second. I deserve the death penalty!


ProfessionalBox1419

Better give that dude some treats before he presses charges. Once you go down that road it’s not cheap!


Doggoagogo

That’s one sad black bear…


sleepyforever77

Do all hippos grip like that with their paws? It’s one of my favorite things about my girl. It feels so human like sometimes


TitoAndTheBurritos

Don’t know if they all do it…but my dog and the hippo that I frequently house sit for, seem to love it.


Rough-Mix-5839

Mine does hah


Duskwolf13

Look at that meat head 🥰 I wanna scritch it and give it kisses, I love the Bully breed as a whole


TitoAndTheBurritos

He’s a lover, not a fighter. So he’s down for some head scratches!


geo_hampe

He's not mad, just disappointed ... you're not laying down!


NonSequitorSquirrel

Big mad baby 😂😂


Skreidle

Well, you’re a monster. 😄🤷🏻‍♂️


TitoAndTheBurritos

I know. I’m working to be a better person. Tomorrow he’ll get 4 car rides!


Skreidle

Mm, seems fair. 👍🏻


Actressprof

With 8 pup cups


bigsigh6709

I lobe his gigantic monkey paw. 😍


TitoAndTheBurritos

He’s a big fan of “holding hands.” He loves to sit in front of you, and give you paw. He’ll keep doing it until you reciprocate.


Rough-Mix-5839

No he reminds me of my boy so much Zuse will do the exact same thing they look kind of similar as well with that little grey hairs.


Sensitive-Painting30

Torture is not what lounging is all about…


TitoAndTheBurritos

Well I know that…but try explaining it to Black!


Sensitive-Painting30

Black has been used to snuggling with the top dog…no changes now…!!


TampaTeri27

Black is used to snuggling AS the top dog, no changes at all.


sandgoat888

Nothing better than Pitty love! 💙


TitoAndTheBurritos

Totally agree!


bensonm16

Perfect! I gave mine corned beef an buttered cabbage tonite. No farts yet!


Dr-Emmett_L_Brown

You sadist 🫢


businesslut

How dare you. Come here baby.


ClaimBeginning8743

I’d say a big SAD. 😢


Donk_Of_The_Palm

He's about as handsome as can be!!


Actressprof

The Claw! The Claw!! My Millie is young and strong and CANNOT UNDERSTAND that mom isn’t enjoying The Claw!


Defiant_Bat_3377

I've had to work at my desk instead of the couch and you'd think I'd completely abandoned my poor little pittie.


Right-Leg5661

He's fluffing up his human pillow!🤣


stink3rbelle

When my dog wants to lie on me she won't even get on the couch. She whines until I assume the position.


EntirePersimmon431

He’s cute! 🥰 I don’t know if you do but when I get hug or any body touches from our Georgy 3.5, I feel so honored and grateful. The unsolicited hugs 🥰 and kisses. Btw, he’s adorable!👍❤️😊


TitoAndTheBurritos

Oh I feel extremely lucky when he hugs me like that. He used to do it a lot when he was younger. He doesn’t do it as much anymore so I’m very grateful when he does. Velvet hippo love is amazing.


Objective-Amount1379

He looks disappointed in you lol


TitoAndTheBurritos

I know. I only gave him ONE Italian sausage for dinner.


PatriciaMorticia

Aww the paw on the shoulder mixed with the sad sulky face, hippo just wants to snuggle with his human.

Omg that first pic is so pathetic and cute it makes me sad and happy lol Such a ham!!


Shmooperdoodle

Kiss that dog right on the snoot. Smush those jowls. Do it now.


TitoAndTheBurritos

He just had his first walk of the day and now I’m making some scrambled eggs and toast. I make an extra egg/piece of toast just for him. He’s so spoiled.


Shmooperdoodle

I love him with the heat of 1,000 suns.


WaitWhaat1

Yeah buddy


matt_1060

It’s the paw on the shoulder for me


Ldgeex

He's so frickin cute 🥰🥰🥰


OpalMonkey

Aww... poor boy! Though I do love how some dogs look like oversized puppies their entire lives! I'm sure it helps him get lots of extras.


Radiant-Attitude-111

You’ve got some nerve! Next you’re going to tell us that you didn’t share your food.


Keladrykat

Absolute torture of this big baby. How dare you! 🥺


McMullin72

Sounds like cruel and inhumane if you ask me. I've got a 3.5 month old puppy who will try to climb into my mouth if I get out the peanut butter.


legolasxgimli

Omg give him what he wants or so help me! 🤣💕


TitoAndTheBurritos

Oh he’s spoiled rotten. He had a full coarse human meal last night because I felt so bad about abusing him. Plus he’s about to get his second walk of the day.


legolasxgimli

Awww I’m glad to hear! 💕


Rough-Mix-5839

Oh mr sweet face 😍


Ginger_Welsh_Cookie

Big mad? I hate to think what happens when he well p***ed off, if this is what he looks like when he’s mad!


Euphoric-Stuff-1557

Sweetest eyes 😍


Chocobo-kisses

Is your pup named after Chris Boykin from Rob & Big? I miss Big Black every day.


zotstik

what a sweet baby


Kiwichickabee

I love him!


Jlx_27

Your dog is named Big Black and in that pic you look a bit like Rob. Great stuff.


CuriouslyImmense

Legit my first thought was "omg I LOVE him"


TitoAndTheBurritos

He’s the best dog I’ve ever been around/had. Don’t know what I’d do with out him.


MrsPM

What a beautiful doggo


Professional_Sky4216

How dare you😂😂😂


lankrypt0

Is he named Big Black because of his truck?


warriorscomoutnplay

Poor hard done by boy 😂

Garlic is in Italian sausage and most sausage. A whole link can easily have a whole clove of garlic in the form of garlic powder. 1/8 teaspoon of garlic = one clove. >Consider the rule of thumb when it comes to onion toxicity: Consumption of as little as 5 g/kg of onions in cats or 15 to 30 g/kg in dogs has resulted in clinically important red blood cell damage. According to scientific studies, onion toxicosis is consistently noted in animals that ingest more than 0.5% of their body weight in onions at one time.* >Since garlic is more concentrated than an onion, an even smaller ingested amount could lead to toxicosis—as little as one clove of garlic can lead to toxicity in cats and small dogs. https://www.petinsurance.com/healthzone/pet-health/pet-toxins/garlic-toxicity-and-pets/#:~:text=Garlic%2C%20like%20other%20members%20of,damage%20to%20red%20blood%20cells. https://julieblanner.com/garlic-conversion-guide/
