GASLIGHTING OR AFFIRMATION?: Local woman overheard insisting three dozen times a day that her enormous dog is “so very small” “He’s so tiny,” said mastodon user A Bad Idea, referring to Odin the Newfie, who is the size and weight of an adult human man. “Odin, you are so small. You are a baby.” “I love my tiny little baby,” she exclaimed as Odin reared up on his hind legs and easily rested his saucer-sized paws on her shoulders. She’s five foot nine. “Why is he so small!” she asked of the heavens as her dog licked her face while she was standing up. When asked if he identified as small, Odin the Newfie flattened the reporter with a joyous leap, pinning them to the floor with seventy kilograms of muscle, and licked them senseless until they stopped asking questions and gave him cuddles.
