No-one wants to describe their dog as being a vicious, mildly psychopathic, unstable horror. However, just because someone describes their pet as being strong-willed, snappy, a character, nippy, a little tinker, a bit funny, and so on, it doesn't make it any less painful when they bite your finger off. These kind of cute descriptions would never happen when it came to people. You wouldnt call a murderer a bit stabby, or claim a thief had a bit of a steal-ish personality, in order to make their actions seem less severe. Plus, its embarrassing to walk into A&E to get twenty stitches put in your lip, and have to explain to the doctor it was from a dog who was a bit of a naughty pudding
