Strange , raise your voice in my house our little dog takes himself outside , drop a cup any sudden loud noise , and he's off , he's a very quiet dog who loves calm , yet i love to sit outside on the balcony every time theres a storm , and being by the sea we have lots of them each year , , he just comes and lies on my lap watching the lighting listening to the thunder , and he'll just nod off absolutly does'nt faze him one bit

Other than that whats the problem

Personaly , reading botrh sides here , i think i would say no way she getting the dog back , its not going to live a good life , lady thinks she bought a toy , probably after recieving nasty messages , i would say no way she's getting her full amount either , i'd probably advertize good home wanted , sell her to someone for whatever i could get and thats all i would refund , i would state the dog was older people were not willing to pay the same has they will a pup . Then i would recieve more messages and think , get a grip of yourself , this woman sounds like a neurotic nutcase letter writer on a mission , and just give her a refund tell her to go away and witch hunt someone else , because she said herself she's on disability with major depresion , the lady sounds bored and causing problems is her outlet , Naaw give the nutter her money back tell all the other breeders you know to be wary , the vet said the dog was fine , its a chiwa wa if it had not eaten for a couple weeks it would be dead , it obviously ate a bit of something , just not enough for her , Give the money back , and hope you get rid of the problem , although i sence until she finds someone else to harrass its not going away ,

Protection Against stray and off leash dogs?
coneye replied to Lolly002's topic in General Dog Discussion
Unfortunatly your never going to stop it , , i own a small dog thats timid , and watch him like a hawk always on the leash when theres other dogs on the dog beach , and i'm constantly shouting get your dog mate , when he's approached which is all the time ,, But prior to him i owned a massive and i mean MASSIVE rotty , that was quite freindly with well mannered dogs , but very unfreindly with ill mannered dogs he would not tolerate them , because of this he was ALWAYS on leash unless dog beach was empty . . With the little one , people don't care they let there aggressive dog run up and intimidate mine , yet with the rotty they always seemed to control theres and put them on leash to stop them coming up , over the years did have a few who did'nt , but i would just shout get your dog mate or i'll let him go , that usually fixed it , sad but true , people just don't care -

Indigenous Groups Call for End to Killing of Dingoes. ABC News 14/7/24
coneye replied to Deeds's topic in In The News
Hard one is'nt it , If i was an aboriginal living in the bush trying to kep the traditions and ways of my forefathers , along with the dream time and all the other stuff , Think then i would hate to see the dingo , shot , culled , got rid of in any way shape or form But if i was a farmer , with 10 000 head of sheep and my whole familly's future and livelihood tied up in it , and was reguly losing sheep to dingos i think i'd want them , shot caught moved areas , whatever has long has they stopped killing my sheep . Suppose if i was in my 4 wheel drive going out where the dingos lived , i would'nt be stupid enough to allow my pet or child wonder off So the top two have both got a point the 3rd one is just an idiot who should have no say . But the fourth one , groups who recieve govt money from which the farmer's tax pays for , should just keep there nose out -
Ethics Being Pet Owner Rethink Breeding Buying Dogs. ABC News 4/6/24
coneye replied to Deeds's topic in In The News
Did these people have to study at uni long to be able to state the obvious -
Did'nt read it , They could of saved heaps of money and just asked what i' and millions of other older dog lovers already knew , Labs are greedy buggers who will eat till they gorge , I can also tell them for nothing . so will my little bitza dog , and feed him the recomended amount once a day say night time , next morning he's looking for food and throwing up white bile , , so he has to have 2 meals a day to stop that , lately because were home more in the colder weather its split into 3 meals , 6am 100 grams ----12-1 pm 100 gms ------ then around 7 pm the last 100 grams , heh presto , no bile , , he's never looking for food anymore , and happy and healthy , There ya go and that info did'nt even have to be funded , ,, can't help but wonder how much it cost for them to state the obvious , labs are a greedy dog I'm basing that on owning a few , plus being brought up with my grandfathers labs , cannot ever remember him not having one , every single one of them called prince has well LOL

coneye replied to Deeds's topic in In The News
Sorry he got caught he means ,, The dog meant a lot to him , Yeh sure did , bet he was thinking about it a lot while he was running away , I'd give him 6 months in the big house to get over his depresion and anxiety , along with a video of the dog being destroyed , he could watch it to cheer himself up , -
Think you done the right thing , it could off worked out OK then again it could of been 15 years of problems and heartache , personaly i would'nt buy that grief

Breeder advertising purebred, pedigree poodles, DNA clear. Then breeder admits in writing not DNA clear they got 2 pedigreed dogs without papers for breeding and 1 on pedigree papers she is breeding with but no evidence of this. False advertising
coneye replied to HoneyHound's topic in General Dog Discussion
Your never going to stop this because simply theres money involved , I know of a lady , i've only spoke to her a couple of times through mutual freinds , she apparantly bred labradors , i have heard her very vocal in the past totaly against labradoodles , claiming it was byb 's doing the wrong thing for money ect ect , throwing out all the against ideas , not in favor one bit , got to say i agreed with her a lot and could'nt then and still cannot understand why people will pay THOUSANDS for a mongrel she was always happy to hear my opinion , my wifes freind payed 5 grand for one ,, 5 GRAND FOR A MONGREL WITH HEALTH ISSUSES . Anyway that was then , now is now and she's changed her whole ideas and attitudes , now its great there introducing a new breed , there doing a great justice for the dog world and all the other associated rubbish , but what changed her mind , thats an easy one , she bought herself a poodle and now sells labradoodles charges nearly double than she did for the labs has well , she don't like me any more because i just casually said its amazing what 5 grand a pup can do for your mindset LOL . -

I think Honeyhound is just pointing out , the lies and deception that some breeders will go to , this paticular person i would'nt call a breeder , but still theres some for want of a better word , proper breeders out there , who's only concern is the dollar , the dogs come second and thats A FACT .
