i also think crush is a little confused as to how TINY a toy breed dog is...
laurs crates are perfectly sized for her TINY dogs.
crush is trying to say they cant stand up turn around ect...well just because your dogs 14lbs at 3 months...lol, my 2 full grown cresites way about that much...
theres a HUGE difference in size.
those crates for your dog crush would be curel...but laurs dogs are itty bitty papillions.
jasper and rubies crates are stacked...
and when i say night night they both run to their crates. jasper spins in circles and if i dont open his door quick enough he starts barking at me...
BUT thats not cruel enough...not only do they sleep in closed crates at night (i might add again that they get excited about goign into) but...but...get this...
i actually cover them up!
it has nothing to do with the fact that jasper yells at me if i DONT put a blankie over his head...nope i do it because im a cruel horrible person!
and to make it even worse...
i put CLOTHES on my dogs
im a horrible horrible person!
i can imaging ruby and jasper running free however, it would be funny, first rainfall and theyd be cowering miserable under a bush...jasper wont go outside if its raining without his rain slicker he HATES having a wet back!
and snow....HA, now that would get me the title of "abusive" just the evil looks i would be getting from the crestis sat out in the snow, staring at me plotting my demise.
not to mention the wowies...that would be it...id be killed in my sleep lol.
i also find it incredibly funny that MR "i have one dog" is complaining that dogs in crates dont get to interact naturally "with their pack"
you know, cause theres so much interaction between dogs when they sleep.
lets see, ive got 6 dogs right here...right now...
jaspers on the back of the sofa asleep...dodgers on the back of the OTHER couch asleep. vixies by my leg, charlies at the top of the stairs and rosies ina completly sepearte room and rubies having soemthing to eat! yup, lots of pack interaction there!
sure if given the chance jasper would much prefer to sleep ON ruby...and ruby would much prefer if he whent away...
but as a pack, they all prefer to be on their own, in seperate places all over the house...
yup, im abusive, omg i dont force them to all sleep together in a tight little ball.
you knwo what else im abusive for...during the day...i make them all go outside together but i dont make them stay all together in a pack OMG, yup im evil, see my horns!?
do i get "most absisive dog owner of the year" award or what?!
i like prizes!
*rolls eyes* seriously.
if im abusive id hate to meet a "kind" dog owner :rofl1:
zoom, id love it if you could make some english sense out of my expereinces...
the formation of english sentences evades me despite the fact im british lol.
i figured if this has to be such a ridiculous thread about how one guy thinks puppymills are doggy heaven and shelters are doggy hell and crates are pergatory and abusive...there should be something REAL, TRUE and USEFULL in here.
