Arent they from 2005 or am I reading those wrong..?

From what I can see, dobesrock has been polite and civilised in articulating her views and has not sought to demean and insult others. Others responding, regardless of whether they agree with her views would do well to emulate such conduct. It doesn't really matter how 'right' a person's convictions are if the message is distorted during the communication process or the person's inability to express himself/herself articulately makes others dismiss that person as an ill-mannered boor. You're not Kevin Rudd are you..? Swallowed the thesarus? Thanks for your comments, will take them all on board as I stand here with pants around the ankles.

And stuff the Pet Shop Peddlars. All of them. No apology there.

And since WHEN were you appointed the DOL Police to monitor and comment on MY posts..? Yes, its a public forum. Glad you see that. Boring. You're doing the same thing.....go off look in the mirror for an hour or so and practice what you preach. Ermm Bull Terrific - labsrule was actually posting in response to koalathebear's posts, not yours. She was actually posting in your favour. Well, that just makes me look like the tosser then doesnt it... Well, I could go back and delete and try and dig my way out of it or indeed I can let it stand and leave my dacks around my ankles for awhile longer. May as well...wont be the first time Sorry Labsrule...will read a bit more carefully in future ;)

Good post AND to add to my previous point earlier that some have their knickers in a knot about. Its absolutely ludicrous to suggest or infer that theres pet shop owners out there that are not selling their 'wares' to people they see as undesirable. They're in it for the buck and at the end of the day, thats what will win out. Fair dinkum - my gut justs turns seeing animals in cages inside these shops and whilst the owners (ie Goofy) might see themselves as providing a moralistic service and business, they're nothing but peddlars. All of them, even the ones that are on the NSW coast who say they only sell to nice people.

And how does that work..? I come in and she doesnt like me so says "Im afraid even though this dog is for sale Im not going to sell him to you"? Sorry, but once they have the animal up for sale they will sell to the person that pulls out the wallet first. Look, theres a whole lot wrong with what you said there and you believing it. About to put dinner on and no time to be going to go into the other 20 things wrong with what you said ...but christ almighty, what a crock of horse shit.

Deleted - changed my mind on the post.

And now that we've done a thread on 'who works full time' with the new member, can we now do a thread on "where everyone lives" please..? Only joking...Friday afternoon and a warped sense of humour

Ahhh..but whether Lake Mountain likes dawgs. Dunno. Didnt think of that one

Lake Mountain Ski resort is not far from Marysville (bushfire devastated area). They need the tourist $$ back up through there. You can camp at Eildon (I think about a 40 min drive) with your dogs at the Blue Gums Caravan Park. Very dog friendly and they have cabins. Its a beautiful park. Love it there.

A bloody LOT of homework..!! (starting here, like you've done). When we first looked at getting involved with the breed we have, we nearly made the fatal error of getting what was to be our foundation bitch from a "breeder' who we 'thought' was reputable because they held a high position within the breed club. Wow were we lucky that we didnt go down that path. Homework, homework, then some more homework. :D

Can you point me to to the list of "Registered Reputable Breeders" please..? :D Is it online or perhaps the ANKC has it available?

Then you visit DOL with your eyes shut. I agree with the OP and the points being made.

The Chihuahua is...the other 2 couldnt give a toss.

And you base your 'thoughts' that they are two completely different breeds on what..?

Its actually not something that is up for 'vote' Facts are facts. Lo Pan pretty much hits the nail on the head here. If you're not discussing this issue in the same ballpark that Lo Pan is in - then you've probably got no idea on what you're talking about. Sorry, but dems da facts

Crikey. My suggestion is open car door You and dog hop into car Drive to Adelaide

APBT is a lost cause and always will be until numpty owners are legislated against.

No brainer. I wouldnt give flying him one seconds consideration UNLESS you know the pup gets car sick or overly stressed.

Abigail still doesn't understand what BSL after all thats posted and unfortunately is just a general ignoramus to boot. Stick to goldfish.

And THATS a Bully for you..!

Amen to that
