nothing sweeter than a dog who trusts you so much that he wants to sleep next to you

[Kamal900]

It's not 7aram to own one, but it's very preferable to keep the dog outside the house. The reason for this is because the dog's tongue is dirty or "Nejess" in Arabic. Cats are 100% allowed in Islam because they're more cleaner than dogs. Personally, I love dogs more than cats, and I'd like to have one.

[al-Bosni]

You ask questions that you already know the answer to. I wonder what the true purpose of this thread is.

it is according to some muslims , like you can only own them for work and not in inhabitated areas

I honestly like dogs, but they eat their own poo. I saw it with my own two eyes.

mine did until the age of 5/6 months i think

[Kazimiera]

I'm not a dog person at all. My mom is and her house smells of dog. Everything is geared towards dogs. Blankets all over the floor. The one dog is very old, so it pees in the house. It's not the dog's fault because I'll probably also lose control of my bladder when I'm that old but it's horrible. The two mutts are sweet but I prefer to admire them from a distance.

What I like about cats is that they don't have this overpowering smell that dogs have. And they are more independent. They do their own thing. My one gets very sticky sometimes but not nearly as emotionally dependent as a dog.

i had a cat too for some time , a person lived in my house and brought with her her cat, cat piss smells worse in my opinion but i assume they re easier to train
many dogs also piss all around when they re left alone or they keep pissng around after puberty to mark the territory

Some houses with cats do smell. Perhaps it is easier to upkeep after them to prevent that, but cat pee in carpets smells awful.

Cats don't piss around if you supply them a box with cat litter, and keep it clean, their predatory instinct says them to hide their wastes, so that they don't leave around their smell, with a litter, they 100% of times will dig a deep hole and cover it when they have finished.

[Harley]

I think dogs require more upkeep generally. I have owned both dogs and cats, and cats don't require much except that you keep their litter clean, or the smell of their piss and whatnot will overpower the house. Female cats don't have pungent smell to them.

Hamsters stink like crap though. I hate hamsters.

[Lucia]

I have a female cavalier king charles spaniel and it's more like a cat than a dog. Very well behaved. :)

[Annie999]

You're speaking of islam and you want logic?

[Arduti]

It's not haram.

It's more of a nuisance. Contact with dogs makes one ritually impure, requiring a full ghusl instead of just wudu before the next prayer.

[al-Bosni]

You don't need full ghusl. You just have to wash the place the dog licked 7 times, the first time with soil.

[Óttar]

It all depends on which Islamic school you're talking to.
Some sufis made it a point to befriend and feed dogs.

Lol. Naturally tomcats will spray. And many with health issues also spray.

[Kazimiera]

My two are females. The worst thing about cats is the smell of pee, but mine go do their thing outside in the garden. I don't have carpets in my house, so any accidents (which are very rare) are on a tiled floor.

[Dema]

Greeks, Serbs and Vulgars served Ottomans as dogs, does that count?

actually i found your post very good, but i didnt want to give any replies in that direction but since you mentioned it..

There is many truth in it! dogs are just not for house... too much smell, hairs, and its just a general mess. Also not to mention its a living being that needs attention all the time and not some toy you can leave there...

I had a middle puddle, she was fully white, they are anti-allergic , therefore they dont leave hairs and stuff around but still...

Its hard for me to even look after my flowers and plants, thats why i switched to all regular house plants and cactus like plants because they dont need to be watered so often and i can barely manage that sometimes..

Plants are generally better then animals, they dont shit around, they drink just as much as they need, they grow lovely, they are quiet and peaceful and generally much more acceptable to me as a house companion...


BTW all i said has nothing with my Islamic religion, its just how its is, how i think as a human.....

They don't smell if you bathe and groom them.

[Kazimiera]

They don't smell if you bathe and groom them.

Yes, they do. They can be shampooed and groomed but they still have that underlying dog smell. It might not be over-powering but it is still there. You can't expect a dog not to smell of dog.

[Gangrel]

I'm not talking about those little rat dogs, I'm talking about real dogs. They will always have a smell regardless of how much you wash and groom them.

Well, true, my dog smells when she's wet. However, I really don't smell anything when she dries. Only time was when she had an ear infection, her ear smelled. :shrug:

If you have them around you all the time you probably don't smell it anymore, especially if she is your dog. You're accustomed to her smell. My mom says she can't smell her dogs, but the house reeks of them.

They dont even make eye contact, they feel the tension when I pass by.

Wet dog smells of wet dog. There is nothing else like it. This smell is to be avoided like the plague.

About a year ago two of my neighbour's mutts attacked another little dog. I managed to stop the fight and scooped up the little one because he was bleeding. I carried him to my house in my arms and the smell of dog assaulted my nose. The poor little thing was completely traumatised and I felt so sorry for him, I just wanted to cuddle him to make him better but I couldn't bring myself to hold him too close to because the dog smell was overpowering. I feel so bad about it. He died from his injuries later that day.

I don't understand how vets can do their job. I can't imagine being surrounded by the smell of dogs all day, every day.

[crazyladybutterfly]

i kinda of like my dog smell

[Wadaad]

"Wet dog" smells very familiar to me...because that is the default smell of the White man.

Dogs have more personality than cats in my experience. I like cats of course, but one thing about them is that they behave very predictably, mostly behave the same on certain impulses. It as if they're an autistic species. :p Dogs on the otherhand behave differently according to their mood.

You mentioned this before once, that white people smell of wet dog. I went about trying to find out if this really is the case from my non-white colleagues. I didn't ask them directly, but I threw it in during a conversation, that white people sometimes smell like wet dog. And they all giggled. In response to the giggling I said, "Well, isn't it so?" Nobody said yes, but nobody said no either.

I still can't believe that I smell of wet dog. I've deliberately sniffed myself and my colleagues since we spoke about it for the first time and I cannot detect a wet dog odour. I think you also mentioned cooked cabbage....

[Dandelion]

Even if dogs have their smell (preferably you bathe your dog once every two weeks). Their loyalty and affection makes up for it.

Pigs probably smell worse, but they're also kept as pets by some. Pigs are less servile than dogs, but just as intelligent. They see you as their equal whereas a dog needs a leader.

Just like with a dog, if a white person is likeable the non-white puts up with our smell. ;)

Dogs too can be very predictable and sometimes very dumb, cats are more instinctive but if you are used to them you can see that everyone has its own different personality.

It's not.

However, keeping the dog inside the house IS.

We can keep Cats in houses but not dogs, for they are not clean (most of them).

I had few dogs, but I kept them in the yard, they had their own house.

[Laberia]

I have a dog and a cat. And i keep both inside my home. They are good friends. It's funny to see when they start to play. But the best part is when one of them is not interested to play and the other insist to play. The dog is tolerant.

I've heard that dogs are considered food par excellence in Albania? Is that truth? Or just an ordinary meal....

I grew up surrounded by dogs, all my friends had dogs in their gardens, I know well their behaviour, as well as cats behaviours. Both of them are very intelligent but in a different way, dog is more inclined to be commanded by his owner, it's the pack mentality, since dog is a social animal, while cat in nature is a lonely predator, similar to leopard under this aspect, he's not inclined to hierarchy and to be commanded, sometimes they tolerate other cats, and they adapt to live in colonies, but their instinct is that of a solitary animal.

No, we don't eat dogs here. This is a stupid tentative for trolling. What we know is that you south slavs gave to entire world an horrible spectacle of cannibalism.

All pets in house are HARAM in ISLAM

[Celestia]

Dogs really are angels among us.
Cats are the devil.
I love them both <3

[Viçwāmitra]

Interestingly Its opposite in Hinduism, Dogs are liked and even worshipped by People of Nepal.

Some gods even use them as vehicles as well. According to Hindu Shastras I am advised to keep a Dog to remove obstacles to success and keep those who wants to harm me away.

[zimt]

In the past, I've considered converting to Islam for reasons of finding a mate (I know, I know), and this was one of the things that prevented me from doing it. I love my dog very much and I will never live a day where I don't have a dog by my side. It should be cats that are considered haram. One of the reasons is that dogs are supposedly unclean, but dogs are much easier to keep clean, you just have to train them and put some effort in. Big dogs also make wonderful protectors of children and homes. The form of Sunni Islam practiced in parts of Africa does allow dogs as pets. Some other forms allow dogs as pets if they are only outside. I couldn't have a strictly outdoors dog, they need a little love and affection to make their lives happy, and they do love sleeping by their master. My dog has tried to attack people for trying to wake me up, and she's usually sweet as pie. An indoor dog is a great addition to a family, and this was one of my biggest issues with converting (after some of the bizarre teachings about women, angels, and the afterlife).

Mine brings the birds in to share. I give him a petting then he proceeds to eat them where he stands. Usually there are a few feathers, a beak and the claws left. He especially loves the little waxeyes. The mice he kills and I bury in the compost.
