U
I know very little about hunting with dogs. I'm not a fan of hunting. I'm almost vegetarian about it. I think it's wrong, but I still eat meat. Figure that one. Not saying it is wrong for you. By all means, continue doing what you and your dogs love to do. I was simply stating that if I were to have a terrier, I would not hunt with it. That I find the ED competitions very interesting, and would perhaps train my dog for it.
I started this thread to get help. I got the advise, I'm taking it and it's working. I don't need people to come in here and bark at me because I don't like the dog, or because I have names of distaste for her. I have a friend that calls his wife's cat "Dumb cat" and says he hates him. But when Doodle got sick, he was right there, crying, hoping the cat would make it through. He being trashy to that cat too? No, it's the same thing with me and Minnie. I call her this, and say I hate her, but she sleeps on my side with me at night. She's my cooking buddy, and gets left over tidbits when I'm in the kitchen. Oh yes, this dog is treated horridly! We go on long walks, and when she can't go any more, she gets to cuddle up in my jacket, and I sing to her all the way home. Oh the abuse!
Trolling?
You're the one that comes into my thread and starts talking trash. You're the biggest diva. Get over yourself. Why would I want to come near your dogs? Who said I was? What reason would I have? Calm down and stop kindling the fire. And responding to a statement that speaks illy toward myself is not trolling. If I started a Thread called PoodleMommy Shut Your Face, that's trolling. But defending myself against someone that thinks I'm a monster just because I don't like a dog. Whatever. Get over it. Not everyone LOVES or has to love a dog.
Yes my posts are angry, because I'm tired of people telling me I treat her like trash. I get defensive very quickly when that happens, call me strange. You must surely know what a dog REALLY being treated like trash goes through. I'm sure you've all been to shelters, or are rescues and foster homes yourself. Or at the very least seen it on TV. Again, I could have let the dog die. But no, I spent my time and money helping her... that must mean I do care about her, and oh what.... Not treat her like trash? Oh no I have poor thoughts toward her. Oh no, I called her rat on the net. I already said that my words were poorly chosen. What more do you want?
I'm logging off Chaz. I'm sorry if I broke rules, I know I did.
Again, didn't mean to dis your Chi's Lizzy. Thanks to all that DID help me, and read my posts through and through.
