    I see a variation of this every once in a while any my pick is always Brian Griffin. What everyone always fails to take into account with him is that every one of the other dogs is completley happy with their current owner! They’d likely have worse overall lives if you took them away even the ones that you’d expect to feel better. Like Courage for example, he has to deal with SO MUCH terrifying stuff but it’d be a lot less if he left Muriel to be at mercy to said terrifying stuff without him since let’s be real her husband ain’t doing shit.

    But with Brian? He doesn’t benefit at all from being with the Griffins and everyone in Quahog INCLUDING his family hate his guts. Being a Griffin has made him absolutely MISERABLE and that’s why he’s become an insufferable douchebag in the later seasons. Everyone seems to think adopting him would mean having to deal with modern Brian when in reality as long as you treat him as an EQUAL and not a worthless dog he’d be much closer to the Brian everyone loved.

      In spanish it is called “Ysimurdiera” which sounds as “what would happen if it bites”. Always wondered if there’s also a light joke on the original version… is there a joke im not aware off behind “seymour”?
