SapphireSpark+FollowTailgating With Dogs: Fun or Fiasco?So you want to bring your dog to a tailgate. Sounds cute, right? Until your golden retriever tries to eat a hot dog off someone’s plate or your anxious pug hides under the grill. Before you turn your game day into a canine circus, here’s what you need to know: Double-check if dogs are even allowed. Stadiums = usually no. Friend’s backyard = probably yes. Is your dog actually into crowds? Some pups love attention; others would rather nap at home. If your dog gets stressed, don’t force it. Be ready to bail. If your dog starts acting weird—tail tucked, ears down, panting like crazy—it’s time to go. No shame in an early exit. And honestly? It’s totally fine to leave your dog at home. You’re not a bad pet parent for wanting to enjoy a beer without worrying about your furry sidekick. Tailgates are for fun, not stress—for you or your dog. Choose what works for both of you! #DogLovers #Tailgating #PetCare #Pets201Share
ykane+FollowNothing gets your heart racing faster than a tailgater on a twisty road!I was out driving on a rural road full of sharp turns when some guy came flying up behind me, flashing his brights and riding my bumper hard. I kept calm and stayed steady, but he eventually roared past me in a hurry. Not even a minute later, I had to slam the brakes for a deer that darted across the road. All I could think was — if he had still been tailgating me, we both would’ve been wrecked. And if I hadn't braked, I would’ve nailed the deer and still gotten rear-ended. It really got me thinking: what’s the safest move when someone’s glued to your back bumper like that? Pull over? Slow down? Speed up? I did what felt right in the moment, but I’m curious how others handle it. 🚗💨 Ever had a tailgater turn a drive into a near disaster? #Tailgating #RoadSafety #DrivingQuestions #RuralRoads #NearMiss150Share
