Today, I was asked by my mom if I could have a joint birthday party with her dog, because it would be the dog's "Big 1-0." She was completely serious. FML

Ask for double the shit. The dog isn't going to eat the cake, so you get double the cake. Double the fun. Also, if you have no friends, you can invite dogs (who have owners). It seems like this might be the situation if your mom wants to have a joint-birthday.

77th actually, the first year of a dog's life is equivalent to 14 years.

ok no offence of anything but there's no such thing as dog years a dog will die quicker than us because it breathes to a lot when it's hot(panting)and through that dieing quicker Also a year is the time it takes a planet to orbit the sun so a dogs year is the same as a human year...unless dogs live on another planet

Ummm...the panting does not make them "die quicker". And there is no set ratio for dog age. It depends on several factors such as breed and size. Most large breeds such as Great Danes and Mastiffs only live 7-8 years because their size puts extra strain on their heart and joints. Smaller breeds such as poodles can live 20 years or more because there is less strain on their organs. You also need to take into account "natural" deaths vs. "assisted" deaths. A mastiff may live an extra 6 months in horrible pain from joint issues or the owner could put them down to spare them that pain. Please do some research before spouting off.

example: asian people tend to be smaller and live longer than american people, therefor they should have different year cycles? lol

I heard that the first year of a dog's life was one year and then ever year after that was seven years.

Your birthday is more important, but I can't brand this a FYL or YDI, so I'll just brand it YLR, your life rocks. It would be cool to share a birthday with a family beloved pet. Twice the fun and enjoyment, I'd appreciate it. Plus it would hit two birds with one stone (if your parents are the type to celebrate holidays with your pets, which I do myself). I honestly don't see how this passed moderation, unless you dislike your mothers pet.

Just take the dog for a long drive and let him out of the car. He'll find his way back home in a week or so, but it wouldgive you a chance to have your own party

If the dog is female, make your mother share Mother's Day with it--claim it's "Bitches Day". Hey, you'll be moving out soon, anyway.

agreed this is funny, animal lovers shouldn't be able to make events for the pet that involve participation of other people who may not love the animals THAT much, dont get me wrong i think pets are awesome but the op's mom can talk to(like the dog has sentient intelligence)/give party for their dog alone
