#3 of Feral Love

Firstly let me state that I am no expert on anything, however I have had a lot of experience with some things. I work sleep and breath dogs, they are my life in a nutshell. What follows are some of the stranger or more confronting things I have been ask over the years in relation to Zoophilia.


Lets start with the down right absurdest thing I've ever been asked

Q: Furries, zoophiles and pedophiles are all the same right?

A: Nooooo! Please lower the rifle you have pointing at the fox fursuiter in the corner with his fluorescent orange paws in the air.

Could the person in that suit be a zoophile or a pedophile? Sure, but are they any more likely to be than any other person on the street. I would say it is very doubtful.

How would anyone ever get accurate numbers on such things anyway.

Putting a side all morality for a second, each group are aroused buy different things. While I'm not saying that individuals might not belong to multiple groups to lump them all together is wrong.

Q: But

A: Wrong!!!!! Next!

Q: Do Zoophiles only care about having sex with their animal.

A: No, that would be classed as bestiality where the entire relationship is only about sex

Zoophilia is the love or concern for, all the aspects of an animal's life or if you prefer the love of an animal as a whole (not as a hole).

I know a couple of zoos and have no problem with them, The way they treat their dogs is beyond reproach and the animals are kept in very healthy condition and seem very happy. Dogs are very good at telling you if there is a problem with their body language if you know what your looking for when they interact with the humans in their lives. Trust me on a few occasions I have seen a reaction from a dog that worried me greatly. In the most extreme case I said to a guy "Jack is a really nice dog, if you ever want to part with him let me know." To which he replied, "You can have the mongrel now if you want, he's nothing but trouble" he then tossed me the lead and walked outside to climb into a nice shiny new BMW, leaving me with a unpaid bill and a dog to rehome, but in the circumstances I was still happy with the outcome. Some people just shouldn't have animals in the first place.

Q: So if an adult dog and a young child have similar IQ levels how can it not be abusive to have sex with them.

A: How many children do you know that go through puberty at around 7 months old. A far better comparison if one has to be made. Is to compare the Adult dog to an Adult human with a minor mental disability, they are both able to have sexual desires and know what they want but still may require care and assistance from their partner that is above what two fully functional adult humans may need from their partner.

However unlike a human showing affection to their low IQ partner, peoples reaction in the case of the dog is quite different. The dog starts to have sexual desires which in polite human society they are not allowed to show. If a male dog humps a plush toy or your leg or a female flags her tail for you when she's in heat. These behaviours are perfectly normal since you are part of their pack and they want you to help relieve the itch that they find they have.

The usual human response is to yell at the dog or whisk them off to the vet to get the offending body parts removed so such behaviour stops.

Q: So will yelling at my dog stop him being inappropriate?

A: Yes it will probably stop him at that precise second, but may not work long term, depending on the motivation behind the dogs actions.

In the case of pent up sexual desire, here is something that no one ever considers: Is giving Fido a quick hand job to get his rocks off and leaves the dog happy, better or worse than yelling at him, so he slinks away to the corner not understanding what he did wrong. He then starts to lick is balls and slightly protruding pink shaft which begins to cheer him up again until he gets yelled at again for being disgusting and chased outside the house.

So much of sexual issues these days has far more to do with societal baggage than anything else.

Take YouTube for example a lot of people just don't know how to handle seeing animals being sexually aware such as a bear giving himself a blowjob or zebra belly slapping to relieve sexual tension. The humans just point and laugh at them. I myself find this a little rude I mean how would you like it if a bunch of animals stood there watching you masturbate and then started laughing at you.

Q: Will Neutering my boy stop him humping everything in sight.

A: Odds are it will dramatically reduce his desire to do so. However if he has been doing it for a while it can be a behaviour that is habitual or frankly may just feel really good to him to do.

There are a number of reasons a dog might hump apart from sexual desire for your leg. Case in point a woman brought in a young male to see if we could help because he kept humping everything. She got him desexed but that only seemed to make him worse, It turned out he was extremely nervous and stressed about the new house and neighbourhood they had moved into and by dropping his testosterone levels it just made things worse. We helped him with some desensitising techniques like playing truck air brakes (one of the things that was freaking him out) on a continuous loop at a low volume for a day. We identified 11 separate triggers for his humping behaviour but after two weeks he was sleeping in front of a window content to let the world do it's thing without him being scared by it any longer.

Q: The Bible says I shouldn't have sex with animals, but I really want to get fucked by my dog. Is it right to have sex with my dog?

A: I'm no religious scholar but I don't think animal sex was part of the big Ten Commandments. Although there was all that coveting of neighbours stuff including animals. I can't tell you if it is write or wrong for you to do. All I can say is for me God is love and if you truly love one of Gods creature should it really matter what the species is they belong to.

In a nutshell, in the case of animals for me it would come down to the enjoyment of the activity by the animal. if the animal doesn't enjoy it then don't do it! If you can't tell if the animal is enjoying it, then again don't do it and spend more time with your four legged friend. You really should be able to tell when an animal in your family/pack is enjoying something and when they are not, but just doing it because they want to please the pack leader.

So in short as long as both parties in a relationship both get pleasure from the relationship and don't walk away in pain or stressed in anyway about what took place, I say Fuck what the rest of the world thinks.

So I have two simple rules that I think we should all live by:

1) To your own heart be true.

2) Do no harm.

Q: Can an animal really consent to sex?

A: Ah yes, this old chestnut. I would say that consent could be assumed in a non verbal world as an action that leaves no doubt what the animal was saying. Such as (and forgive me if I bring everything back to dogs, it's what I know) if a dog completely out of the blue brought you their lead dropped it on your lap as your sitting on the couch watching TV and rested a front paw on your knee.

Chances are they are probably not asking to be fed.

One of the zoo's I mentioned that I know, once told me a story about his Rotty. Apparently the dog has socks put on his front paws when they get jiggy with it. Well one night this guy hears this big crash come from his bedroom so he went to investigate and walks in to find a draw pulled completely out of the dresser with socks and jocks scattered all over the floor and a Rotty sitting happy as you please on the bed with his "Special socks" laying between is front paws and showing more than a little pink between his hind legs. Now in my opinion that is definitely consent. To be honest when I heard this story I split my sides laughing, because I've known this dog since he was a puppy and some of the things he has done over the years convinces me, he knows is own mind and can be very stubborn if your wishes don't agree with his but this really sounded like something he would do. Now I have seen Harley fully erect in an exam and frankly I would run for the hills if he ever presented me with those special socks of his, nothing as large as he is packing will be getting anywhere near my ass thank you very much.

If you were to say gently rub a dogs sheath or vagina while they were laying down and they got up and walked away, that is an emphatic NO! Animals may not speak any human language but they can say plenty if you only care to listen.

Q: Isn't all sex with an animal just rape?

A: No! However animals can be raped in the same way humans can be, by ignoring there wishes or desires. But to say or imply that all sexual contact is rape, is close minded no matter what the species. When done with care and respect for your partner's physical mental and emotional state sex can and is enjoyable between humans so why would you think it would be any different between other species. I have in my work just like countless vets and farmers etc. had to extract semen from many males for storage or AI. Now if the person collecting the semen doesn't get any sexual pleasure from the task does that make it better? The animal doesn't get much choice in the matter so strictly speaking it is non-consensual. I always try to do it carefully handling the animals genitals gently and do my best to put the male at ease. A dog I extracted semen from recently was wagging his tail bouncing around and licking me after we had finished. Do you really want me to think I distressed or hurt this dog because he didn't ejaculate into a bitch to continue the species. He was just happy getting is rocks off. Sex can be fun for both parties if done right and with respect of your partners boundaries.

Q: Don't animals just have sex to procreate?

A: Do humans just have sex to procreate? I know for many everything is black and white and they believe that's how it should be but where ever I look shades of grey is all that I see. (if I can badly mangle Billy Joel's lyric.)

Humans are just smarter than average animals. In non-human animals there are documented cases of homosexuality, masturbation, and even sexual relations with other species outside their own ie: a Maremma who was caught screwing the sheep he was supposed to be protecting from predators (well he had to pass the time somehow) Pretty much every sexual orientation and several fetish like behaviours can be found in other species if you take the time to look hard enough. I once saw a Coca Spaniel who loved sniffing and licking other dogs paws. Did she have a foot/paw fetish? The malamute she lived with didn't share her love for paw licking and quickly learned to tuck his paws in before settling in to sleep. Sadly we didn't get the chance to look for any other reason for her intense interest in other dog's paws, because she was tragically struck by a car and is no longer with us. :(

Q: Is it ok to fuck my dog in the Ass?

A: Most dogs will not like a penis or any other large object shoved up their tail hole. There are of course exceptions to every rule. For example I know two dogs that were hard core gay and one dog used to pound his canine friend every other day, but the dog on the bottom didn't really seem to mind most the time. However we still had to intervene every so often to stop their activity; as they would never use Lube ;) and the bottom dog's bottom, would suffer a bit and require antiseptic cream to be applied.

Receiving anal penetration would be far from the most favourite sex act of a lot of males human or otherwise, but there are other forms of sex you know. So it would not be impossible to find an activity enjoyed by both participants. No matter who you are with, human or not, it is always a learning curve to establish what you partner likes or doesn't like. The main difference with animals is often a size difference which cause issues with parts fitting and I'm not just talking about the human always being bigger. Dogs come in many different sizes and an extreme mismatch can do harm to one of you. Just like disregarding the others wishes and forcing yourself on them can do harm also.

Well that's all for now. Comments are welcome but if you don't agree with something I have said please be polite about it. The above is only my opinion I am not trying to push any point of view onto anyone else, mind you if your still reading at this point I must have done something right :p

Either that or you've been building up enough flame to melt an entire dragons cave of gold. Wanders off into the kitchen to wrap myself in a flame proof blanket and grab a fire extinguisher, just to be safe.
