What dog breed would be good for a fictional sleuth? by STJensen
I'm writing a mystery and am considering giving the sleuth a dog companion. The private detective works solo and I thought a dog companion would be a good idea for him. He travels all over the world solving crimes and stays as a guest in the luxurious private homes of his clients ... so no...

I never expected to be so unwelcome by Chanzilla
I've been absent from this group due to an unfortunate avalanche of personal issues, but from the tone of responses, I take it I'm not welcome. Yes, I'm trying to put together a website for dogs. Yes, I came here asking for help because I thought it would be a good idea. I love my dog, it's an...

Ping: Sionnach--NADAC rule ? by Robin Nuttall
Okay, I have a question about TIR in NADAC. I have a friend who is thinking of entering her young green dog at a trial. The question is, if you are schooling in the ring, can you bring a toy in? I know, of course, that you can't if you expect to Q. He's got a load of drive and intensity at practice...

Rant about national breed clubs by Tee
In doing some window shopping via national breed clubs I'm finding more and more of them are demanding you send money to them in order to find out who their member breeders are. IMO that's stepping way over the line and I think its unethical. I can be heard to say at least once a year that...

Breeders who advertise in paper by bettyjean
I was surfing the net and came across this forum. I have been breeding German Shepherds now for over 12 years. I find it offensive that most articals I read state that anyone who has to advertise in the paper are back yard breeders or to stay away from them. It takes time to get established as a...

BSL - 75 Breeds Listed (Even Goldens!) by Paul E. Schoen

Chihuahuas: are males better pets than females? by [email protected]
I am going to get a Chihuahua puppy after the new year. An AKC compliant breeder has informed me that males tend to be better pets than females, because they are hormonal and possessive. Males are also cheaper, so she is not steering me towards a more expensive pup. Any comments on this? Are male...

Something messed up about dog show people by Alton
Seeing this post Macy's Parade dog show, it reminds me that there's something very strange about the psychology of dog/cat show people. The control-freakism of fixation on the physical form, stance and movement of an animal. They seem to be first cousins to the people who gussie up...

Scariest LOOKING breeds, public perception? by [email protected]
Does anyone know if there have been any studies/polls that measure what the "general public" thinks of as a "scary" dog? I'm ruling out the most obvious that I 'hear' about (Pit Bulls, Dobermans, and Rottweilers) for the purposes of this post. In the future (next year or so) I want to add another...

Purebred or Mongrel? by John Davidson
I'm thinking of getting a dog, a medium sized one -- maybe a German Shepherd or a Lab. Should I be looking at a purebred or a mongrel? Are there any pros or cons one way or the other? (There are no small children in the house, if that makes a difference). Thanks.

Illegal grooming at Westminster by ANNE FROMM
Not sure how they "get away" with it. I am watching TV now --part 1 of the show. I guess all the rules are made to be broken! Sorry, I don't mean to sound flippant, but the shows are obviously getting too big to supervise all of the pre-show activity. ~~~~ I wanted to ask if anyone knows about...

sorry about topic "dragging" by Janet B

BIS Westminster--the GSP by Robin Nuttall
I admit that I think the Best lineup this year was stronger than it has been in a number of years. There were a number of dogs I really liked going in--the Bloodhound who won in FL, the Pyr, the Tibbie. Didn't really think about the GSP. BC was eh--not my kind of dog. I just don't get Pekes--it...
