Today, I was walking my dog. A cute guy stopped me and said, "Wow, you are gorgeous!" I said thanks. He looked at me like I was nuts and said, "Not you, your dog." FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was out walking my dog. A cute woman said, "Nice dog!" Without thinking, I replied, "You too!" FML
Today, I was walking my dog when a car slowed down, and a guy leaned out of the window, then yelled, "Hey, nice dog!" Naturally, I turned to reply, "Thank you!" only to find that the guy had no intention of complimenting me at all. He had been talking to the dog the entire time. FML
Today, I was walking my dog when I saw a cute guy jogging towards me. I tried to look cool and gave him a smile. At that exact moment, my dog stopped to poop directly on my shoe. The guy jogged past without breaking stride and muttered, “Perfect timing.” FML
Today, in the middle of what I thought was an empty park, I told my dog he’s the “goodest, bestest boy” while out on a walk. A stranger appeared out of nowhere, gave me a thumbs-up, and said, “You too, champ.” FML
Today, my self-esteem has gotten so low that when I was out walking my boss's dog and someone called out, "Beautiful!" I assumed they were talking about the dog. They had to clarify they were speaking about me. FML
Today, I was out walking my dog, when a lady called out to me asking, “Is that a boy or a girl?” Assuming she meant the dog, I told her that he was a boy. When I turned away, I heard her say to her kid, “I was talking about the person walking the dog, but whatever,” then audibly laughing. FML
Today, I was walking my new dog and saw this girl that I've had a crush on for months. When I approached her, I tried to look 'macho' with my dog. However my dog thought it would be more attractive to pee on my leg. FML
Today, I was walking my dog when he decided that he was too lazy to continue walking. It ended up with me looking like a crazy dog lady carrying my medium-sized dog home. FML
Today, I was taking my dog on a walk when two younger looking boys rode their bikes up towards me. One said, "What about her?" The other boy said, "Nah, she's ugly." FML
Today, while walking my dog, I saw a hot guy so I tried to look chill. My dog chose that exact moment to take an enormous dump. I didn’t have any bags. The dude stared while I pretended to check my phone until he walked off. FML

He didn't need to bark at you, he could of replied a bit less ruff.

Even if he was talking about your dog instead, how is "thanks" not an acceptable response?

Thanks seems like a perfectly acceptable response. It's what I say when someone tells me that my son is gorgeous. Sorry OP, but maybe he's just a dog lover.

That's what you get when you go out in public with a . . . *lowers sunglasses* hot dog.

Hmm, where do you keep getting these sunglasses from? Do you just wear then 24/7? What if its a rainy day in FML-city? You have some explaining to do Mr. Perdix.

I agree it sucks. But in that situation, if a girl would come up and say you're cute to me. I'd assume she meant the dog.

My assumption is that op misheard the guy. Our society is super self-centered and I'm guessing that the guy stopped her and said "Wow, you have a gorgeous dog!" I'm not real sure about that but I feel like there's more to this story.

Or she just took a compliment the wrong way and youre way too deeply analyzing society based on one situation. It probably happened just as it was described.

I don't really think there's anything wrong with "thanks" as a response either way...

Meh. Could have been worse. Dude: Wow, I'd like to hit that! OP: What!? I'm not that kind of girl!!! Dude: Not you, your dog. OP: O.o Dude: =:-o

I would very calmly say: well did u hope that the dog will reply to you? I said thx in his behalf and just walk away....
