the polar opposite of the dog from the thing who did not really act like a dog at all (due to being a wolfdog) (potentially) are the st. bernards from cujo that didnt understand that they were supposed to be evil and rabid and just licked the rabies foam off their mouths and wagged their tails all the time and refused to lunge or bite at the human actors

#originals #it reminds me of one time (not one time this was a job) when my mom was small (not small she was like? 17? maybe)#ok i googled it and she would have been 22 actually i thought she was a teenager #anyway #she babysat like late nights for this family that lived in moderately-bumfuck nowhere and they had a st. bernard and a Huge amt of land #so the dog was let outside to freely roam a lot and one night shortly after cujo had come out it stayed outside for several hours #and it had stayed out until it got fully dark and then eventually it just quietly walked up to the glass door in back and stood there #and then when she finally walked by and noticed it it went WOOUU really loud to ask to get in and apparently only its eyes were visible #she said she almost had a heart attack but she let it in anyway and it immediately tried to butt her hands for pets so it was all good #i was told this story when i was 12 and had checked out the book from the school library because there was a dog in it #and i got to the part where some character idr which started puking up blood in a bathroom and i was like ew yuckee!!!! and put it back in #my bag and the next morning when my mom was checking my stuff she was like why the fuck were you reading cujo #and i wasjust like i thought it was about a dog :( like it didnt register for a split second in my mind that if rabies is involved then it #probably does not end well for the dog
