For nine years I had the world's sweetest Swiss Mountain Dog mix, Vega, who never knew a stranger… unless you were a man. He hated men. A line of women could all walk through the door, and he'd happily wiggle and wag for their attention, but a man? On sight woofin' and barkin' until they were out of his house.
After some Reddit digging, it seems I'm not the only woman who raised a little misandrist, and the general assumption is that deep voices trigger some pups. That makes sense, considering Vega almost exclusively interacted with women. But in all of my very professional research (endlessly scrolling through social media at 2 am), I have only found one recorded instance of a snake that holds a grudge against one specific man.
