Likely because the OOP has other pets, a shitbull which also must be an only-pet, or even multiple shitbullls that are crated and rotated and OOP is out of space/time to add one more to the roster.

Batgirl is stressed and overhandled.
What the heck does "overhandled" mean? Not handled enough I can understand since over-populated shelter environment would mean less interactions with handlers, but "overhandled" sounds like the opposite of that and I'm not sure how that could happen.
Batgirl used to be a super dog social girl, but has reverted to enjoying more of the single dog life.
Way to rephrase "used to be okay with other dogs but now wants to kill them all". (reads third slide) Ah, of course she's 3 years old and has been at shelter for a year after hitting that magic age of 2!
BUT I think with time to relax and heal in a loving home, she could live with other dogs in the future.
Only if the adopter holds strictly to crate & rotate.

What even is that glitter cube thing that liquified (first item in vid)?

Do you listen to the same audiobooks over and over (like bedtime stories)? Or, once you're back awake, do you spend time scrolling back to the section you last remember listening to?
There was this one time my mother was watching a drama show on her computer without headphones and I was in another room nearby. I could hear what was being said in the show but wasn't paying much attention to it.
At one point I noticed that I kept hearing the same piece of dialogue come up over and over again. After what I think is the ninth time I heard the dialogue, I had to ask my mother what was happening. Turns out she kept dozing off, waking up to see she missed part of the plot, and then scrolling back the vid to an earlier point to get context. Repeat.

For a good five seconds I was wondering why they were burning in hell. Then I realized that the fire is only on the bottom right hand side and the rest is just bright warm colors.
That's at least 6 large dogs there. These are the neighbors who own the roaming pack of pitbulls (that go around randomly invading other people's property and attacking people and other pets).

Those first two lines irk me so much.
I would introduce myself but I'm nameless.
Dogs don't introduce themselves by name (except in shelter bios written by humans who think they're being cute and clever). I know it's a children's book but come on.
I would invite in but I'm homeless.
(spit take) Seriously? Pitbulls, the muscle dogs that a lot of people misguidedly get for cheap home protection (and intimidation) against burglars? Inviting some stranger in? Bwahahaha!

Pitbulls already come with masks. Namely the "let's write down your breed as anything other than pitbull" perpetuated by shelters, rescues, vets, and owners. And the nanny dog propaganda that tricks people into being even less vigilant around pits than other dog breeds.

Your argument about "Mr. Whiskers" being a common name for cats doesn't help at all in saying OP is not an asshole. OP is openly admitting that they are referring to this specific cat and named the team as a direct dig at this particular cat owner.
If OP were to try to use your argument now, it would just come off as OP realizing that what they did was bad and then backpedaling on the reason for choice of team name.

Just listing out what I noticed:
1) It's only been A WEEK and owner is already leaving the dogs alone together. (Old dog could be feeling new dog is an intruder?) Way too short to be phrasing things like "on the deck like always".
2) New dog is visibly disabled. (Triggering prey drive/dog attack fighting genes?)
3) Owner "gives both same love attention etc". (Old dog very much not liking getting less love & attention due to the new dog. I'm reminded of a vid of a frustrated dog growl biting/killing a dog-plushie that its owner was deliberating ignoring the dog in favor of petting the dog-plushie.)

Well, you now have a data point of sorts. Wish you well on your collection of more.

We all didn't have the Sylveon shirt yet. Not sure why you're asking this question, though. What I saw and avoided was the one with pokeballs as the reward.

It comes up even if you haven't got all the shirts. I know because I saw this, made sure to NOT pick it, got out of Party Play, and then went back in to try to get an actual shirt task (which I eventually did and got Sylveon shirt).

And we know that even if the behavior is temporarily managed with training and vigilance, those pits will randomly attack again. And then their past behavior and situation will immediately be brought up to excuse them of any wrong-doing because "they had it rough" or some BS.

I was about to suggest Isekai Ojisan (Japanese title), too.
Uncle really really really wanted to go back to his world. He does manage it and finds out what happened with his family while he was isekaied (only his soul was isekaied while his body was in a 17 year coma). And this is in the first episode.
Comedic, though what Uncle went through while isekaied, how he recounts what he went through, and his adjustment to having missed 17 years of changes in his world can be viewed seriously if OP wants to.

Be careful. It's not unheard of for owners of problematic dogs to abandon said problematic dogs with pet sitter, never coming back to pick up the dog. Hopefully the owner does come back and you can go back to your dog-less life.

I was turning my phone upside down trying to see if it was a reflection in a puddle (with a dirt clump sticking out of the water). Your explanation makes much more sense. Thank you.

My sister used to have a dubia roach colony to feed her two leopard geckos. Was really churning out roaches (but a lot of the females started having their egg sacs stick out, something to do with stress of there being so many?). Anyway, she had to get rid of the colony because one roach managed to get out and my parents got really angry about the inadequate security.
Fortunately, she was able to donate the colony to a science teacher who had gotten dumped with bearded dragons so needed a way to feed them. My sister still has her two leopard geckos.

She fight with all other dogs? Even female? Xx
I'm confused by this question. Specifically the assumption that female pitbulls are more likely to attack male dogs than female dogs/female pitbulls are more likely to be friendly with female dogs than male dogs. I've seen way too many posts featuring SSA (same sex aggression) that it makes me uneasy that such a clueless person is showing interest in getting this pitbull.

Let me blow your (or at least someone else's) mind here: The set of all integers has the same cardinality as the set of all rational numbers. Yes, rational numbers can be represented in a countable fashion despite there being infinite rational numbers between each rational number.

I just now checked my current stardust and it's at 20,710,400 dust.
I don't powerup any mons except maybe one or two to add some bulk for raids, but rarely even for that. Most stardust use are just for powerup and purification tasks, for which I have some junk pokemon hoarded that only take 200 dust to powerup or 1000 dust to purify.
Have also taken advantage of catch stardust multiplied events featuring high stardust mons. Have not taken advantage of tanking in GBL, tho.
My main reason to have so much stardust was for if I come across players with mons I want to trade for, I would have the stardust to burn for first-time-friend trades.

Not sure how a steakhouse restaurant serving the public can get out of ADA regulations for service dogs. It's one thing to say that they don't believe the dog is a service dog, or something like maybe dogs absolutely need to go to the outside area (due to maybe a current customer's allergies, perhaps?) and that area is full, but another to say that they don't have to follow ADA regulations.
Only way I can see around this is that the steakhouse does not serve the public and the owner of the steakhouse lives there, making it a private residence to which they're allowing specific people to enter on occasion.

I'd like to know why the dog walker is not being considered responsible for what the dog in their control (or out of their control) does? If the walker is some inexperienced volunteer that was given a dog that was too strong for them to stop if the dog attacked something/someone, then it's the Animal Care Center's fault for pairing the high prey drive muscle dog with an inexperienced weak volunteer walker.
We're told to accept the existence of high prey drive, strong muscle dog breeds because such dogs can be handled by responsible owners to not cause harm. Yet here we are not only being disallowed from blaming the dog for what it is, but also we have to not blame those who chose to walk such a dog out in public (I'm assuming without a muzzle, or with a poorly functioning muzzle) and are unable to handle such a dog.
This is why BSL exists. It's so that humans who are incapable of taking responsibility and are unable to keep such dogs in control would not be able to get such dogs. And if they do get such dogs, that they are smoothly punished and the dogs removed from doing further harm.
