It's a b*****y dog.
No wonder over half the mannerless mutts are out of control, poor little things are suffering from identity crisis!
Full grown dog = dog. Baby dog = puppy.
Fur baby = derogatory term for child with hypertrichosis, aka: werewolf syndrome. Demeaning to both humans and dogs. Usually used to try and sound cute, or to anthropomorphize something not human.

While I like dogs, I hate it when people try to make their animal sound like something it isn't.
