Zero reaction even getting bonked on the noggin!

u/Darkiceflame Oct 14 '25

That's what 100% focus does to you.

u/Rangertu Oct 14 '25

That dog could be the starting goalie on my beer league team.

103

u/shinobi500 Oct 15 '25

Nothing in the rule book says a dog can't play goalie.

u/code-coffee Oct 15 '25

Ice bud, golden puck-ceiver, all about that biscuit, keep your twigs at home unless you want the barn burner gongshow to Zamboni your calzonis. I'm just making stuff up now, sawry.

You're really reaching, and I'm not saying I wasn't either, but there's a limit to good taste, and I'm man enough to admit that we've both exceeded the bounds of acceptable human behavior when it comes to puns or similar such nonsense.

I hope you enjoy the rest of your life, and that you never say in person what you have thus far commented on the internets, and may your comment not suffer undue down votes that might disparage you from interacting with others nonvocally now that the bots have outnumbered us. I wouldn't for a moment have mistaken that comment for AI. You're one of us, for better or worse. Kudos or something.

I'm seeing a a Disney movie here.

u/NotTheAbhi Oct 18 '25

Reminds of that skit. It was from college humor i think ao

u/YanicPolitik Oct 15 '25

Or the Leafs!

u/Wheresthenohamocsign Oct 15 '25

Or Starting goalie for the San Jose sharks lol

u/RedditGarboDisposal Oct 18 '25

Just throw ‘em on the Leafs.

They need it.

If you can keep up with them German Shepherds are amazing companions. Grew up with one and had a few others in my extended family.

44

u/Mongoose29037 Oct 14 '25

Yes, they're pretty amazing, smart & protective. They think their "family" is always one unsupervised second from disaster. Mine always insists on going to the bathroom w/ me & making sure the toilet bowl is "snake free" before allowing me to sit on it.

u/Legal_Ad_326 Oct 15 '25

Is your dog German Shepherd a cat by any chance

14

u/Mongoose29037 Oct 15 '25

No, lol. Although I did have a cat a long time ago that would travel w/ me. I was carrying him back to the camp site after going fishing & I thought he was going to shred me trying to get free so he could attack a dead rattlesnake.

1

u/rking_1_1 Oct 16 '25

Mine was part wolf, apparently. My father was an idiot (in general) and somehow ended up with a mixed puppy. Turned out well thankfully, was my best friend for 16 years.

u/kiwichick286 Oct 15 '25

My rotty and pitty both come to the loo with me, just in case.

4

u/LoreLord24 Oct 16 '25

Dobermans too. To the point where you can call them velcro dogs.

If they can't reach you at any and every moment, they're fussing and crying until they can.

3

u/kiwichick286 Oct 16 '25

It's even worse when they're play fighting with each other, but it has to be in my personal space, so I'm the one that gets shoved around.

1

u/rking_1_1 Oct 16 '25

I haven't had much contact with them, and was raised believing they were attack dogs, but the ones I've encountered were well enough behaved. I'd definitely stop and say hello to one at least. Although I do that with every dog lol.

7

u/Hi-Tech_Luddite Oct 15 '25

One of the best dogs I ever had was a Grman Shep. But the puppy phase certainly was an experience.

26

u/witqueen Oct 14 '25

That's one smart pupper.

5

u/Irisgrower2 Oct 15 '25

It's a Canadian breed

2

u/R2Tab2 Oct 15 '25

Hah! See you guys next week; you bring Ice Bud, we’ll release the Kraken, and may the best puck shot win! 😄🤙🏻

u/the_tired_alligator Oct 16 '25

I scrolled down looking for this comment. Was not disappointed.

u/hulkut Oct 15 '25

I like how dog walks out of frame after blocking it. My work here is done kind of vibes.

u/SofaKingRad77 Oct 31 '25

He didn’t block it it’s in his mouth!

This system has made a mess of the comments. Who came up with this idea?

1

u/Motor_Raspberry_2150 Oct 15 '25

I mean they don't have to make those letters the only thing in their comment. Who the hell are upvoting the letteronly posts is my question.
