Different dog breeds have different reputations. It's true, we stereotype dogs just as we do people. For example, if you see a labrador, you often think of a caring family-friendly doggo. Or if you see a poodle, you'll probably imagine it being a pampered and precious pooch.

But sadly, some dogs get a bad reputation based on their breed, which can lead to people being fearful of them simply based on their appearance. One breed that suffers from this stigma is pit bulls.

So, after her owner is forced to pick up her paw and begin trimming her claws, the pit bull does something I have literally never seen a dog do (although I have seen human toddlers do it).

Check out the hilarious video below - these owners certainly have a drama queen on their hands:

If you ever meet somebody who says having a dog is not the same as having a kid, just show them this video and they'll soon be quiet!

Although, some people can be far too close to their pet dogs, such as this woman, who decided to "marry" her pooch after a string of unsuccessful dates:
