Free dog!
Not sure if you are suggesting op gets a dog free of cost or that they should set the dog free, but I think both options are acceptable.
Sure, free until you have to feed it and pay vet bills.
Free pet for a day, free roast for the next… /s
Don’t be cruel, you can just tie it to a bike when you’re done.
Just borrow it for the day, then drop it off at the animal shelter for the owner to go get. Whatever time they thought they were going to save by tying it to your bike, they’ll lose having to go in to the shelter. If they don’t go for it, then somebody who actually wants the dog can get it.
Damn, really? :(
What is more infuriating is the dog’s leash doesn’t look like it even has enough length for the dog to lie down.
poor dog is also bearing scorching heat of sun
On pavement.
When this picture was taken it was 55 degrees Fahrenheit
Yeah that is a ridiculously short piece of leash for the dog
I mean, it’s right next to the road, so the idea is probably to keep the dog from walking into traffic.
But that’s a bit of short minded as they introduce the heat of the pavement, inability for the dog to lay down and control their temperature while also blocking someone elses bike. And this is all added onto the fact that you really shouldn’t tie your dog to stuff and leave them for a while anywhere in fairly populated areas.
The dog owner seriously sucks.
Is this Toronto? This looks a lot like Toronto. If you’re from Toronto you should know that there is a city by-law that states if a cute dog is tied to your bike and you take a picture of it and submit it to Lemmy that you then legally get to keep the dog. Just FYI.
Sees a street that could be literally anywhere
Should be Canada, Toronto alright.
The fuck mate xD
To be fair to OP, that combination of red bricks between the curb and sidewalk, the specific type of bike loop, and the streetcar tracks with slabs around them are all over Toronto, but I haven’t see them all together in other cities I’ve been to.
Not like I could proof you wrong soooo…I believe you?
Edit: Lemmy hivemind is as bad regarding downvotes.
I can’t speak to every other city of course, but the photo looks just like Queen East ion Toronto:
Not the exact spot, I’m too lazy to find that specific bike lock, but that area of street view shows all the features in OPs photo.
You need some Geoguesser in your life. There are people who will tell you where exactly in the world this is, only from the picture.

Now I have.
But what if it’s a ugly dog
Honestly that’s even better. Ugly dogs need extra love. But I’m sure the by-law accounts for that. I’m no dog lawyer!
A what?
Legally obligated to get the dog a makeover
OTOH, free dog. And you’d probably give it a better life than the person that tied it there.
NTA. Your bike, your rules.
This was my first thought!
In Spain it’s now illegal to leave your dog leashed outdoors alone.
So you need 2 dogs now?
Most people go for a dog and a blind man
I see…
Hmm I find it wrong to make it generally illegal. Ok, in this condition (very short leash, in the sun, on anotherones bike…) it should be. But if you do it properly, its not for too long and you also train your dog properly to begin with, I find it nessecery
If you tie him to someone else’s bike, what is your alignment?
Chaotic neutral
Not neutral evil?
Not neutral evil?
That would require riding off into the sunset while the dog is still attached to your bike.
Looks like you just met your new room mate and best friend.
Congrats on your new doggo!
I don’t understand people that tie up their dogs like this. They’re just asking for the dog to be taken. And I don’t know about you, but I assume people who steal dogs don’t steal them to re-home them. So why do people do this? Don’t you love your dog? Wouldn’t you want to prevent this entirely preventable situation if you love them? Of course, this particular photo has a whole other element of absent mindedness, so I guess they’re just plain stupid ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I used to tie my ugly mutt up in front of the corner market while I grab a few things. Never to someone’s bike of course.
I do not take such a risk with my expensive purebred.
Please tell me you’re being ironic.
please
I didn’t own both dogs at the same time, but 100% serious. What’s the problem?
You don’t see an issue in handling a dog poorly, because, as you put it, it’s an “ugly mutt” and then go ahead and tell us how much better you treat an animal because it was more expensive?
You really shouldn’t be allowed to own a dog or any animal.
Removed by mod
you are a disgusting person
Why? Because I know which dog might get stolen?
Should I have denied the mutt walks because of what people might think? Or should I endanger the purebred out of some strange sense of fairness?
Without the additional context it easily sounds like you don’t give a shit what happens to some mutt.
Nobody was going to steal a grumpy arthritic mutt.
He was a good dog, but not much “curb appeal”.
Maybe if you’re a dumbass
I assume this is a joke. This is comical villain levels of evil.
I see this all the time, don’t think it’s such a big deal also, sometimes I don’t understand social network people
Cool! You own a dog now!
Definitely a free doggo

Well that’s awkward.
When life gives you especially cute doggos, you keep them good floofers. That dogs looking at you, asking with their eyes “you’re seeing this right? This is all the time for me. If I take a nap I will dies.”
So much stress in that poor adorable face.
Cool! Free dog!
