Bachelors with female dogs or small dogs have control issues.

And watch out, I had to decline a second date with one of these types.

They'll come across as VERY caring and fatherly, but it's only because the dogs they have who they care for are expected to obey commands.

And yes, this bleeds into their relationships with women.

This is especially true of bachelors who make their entire life about their female dog. The more he loves her, and not an animal that's male or larger, the more sus he is.

This isn't to say be jealous - honestly, be the opposite. The dog will probably like you, but he very careful, because once he starts barking commands at you, it's because he has a hierarchy in his mind.
