Woke Dog Would Prefer To Be Known As Folx’s Best Friend
The National Pupper Council believes that the old adage “Man’s Best Friend” is problematic.
“The way we use words impacts how we view the world and how we behave,” explained six-year-old pit mix Daisy, who leads the human relations branch of the NPC. “Gender binary language has no place in our inclusive and accepting community of doggos.“
“We have always taken great pride in accepting and empowering humans of all races, abilities and gender and sexual identities,” added Brutus, a Doberman and senior NPC official who started the “Every Hooman is Best Hooman” initiative. “I speak on behalf of all pooches when I say that no matter how you identify, we just want your love, companionship and most importantly, many, many scritches.“
