wolfpuppy wrote: "diddy" wrote in message . .. "wolfpuppy" composed these thoughts and posted them : Buffoon my ass, bitch. Sure, and a brand new mercedes could be free too--what the hell does that prove? You want to buy a purebred pup from me, you'll pay big bucks. That's a stupid argument. n case I just got a free purebred puppy out of Championship parentage. http://shell2.lomag.net/~moosedog/pup.html just in case you want to check the pedigree. It does not have to be a lousey dog in order to be given a free purebred puppy. Not everyone relates to dogs and owners the way your little world does. You can fill a room full of exceptions and not change the main premise of an arguement. You and I have the same breed and I wouldn't want to buy a puppy from you. Like diddy I recently got a free puppy from top parents. Sire is V rated, schutzhund 3, good ZW. The breeder went and saw him in his home situation as well as looking at his koer report and scorebook. And she is fluent in German so she doesn't have to rely on someone else's translation. The bitch is the sixth generation of her own breeding. And these dogs are titled in AKC obedience, tracking and agility as well as some having schutzhund titles and herding titles. The breeder breeds only for herself and would rather give a puppy away to someone that she knows that would be the right home than to sell her puppies for the several thousand dollars apiece that she could get for them. (And this is the second such dog I've been given from her.) BTW, I looked at the sheps4u website and was underwhelmed. Beth |

"Janet B" wrote in message ... When you buy a purebred, you know exactly what you are getting, if you purchase from a reputable breeder. My latest female will not exceed 65 lbs, which is standard for a female GSD. I have a breed standards book which has the standards for all breeds recognized by the AKC. If my female exceeds 65 lbs, I wouldn't be able to show her, so it is paramount, if you are buying a puppy to show, that you know what wt. she will attain. Gotta piggyback he So go look at your book for Labrador Retrievers, for me will you, please? Then go look at the monstrosities they are showing and winning BOB (Best ofBreed) in their group. You tell me that is what the ORIGINAL Labradors were to look ike, that the 'akc standard' hasn't changed. This is only to get some answers for myself no attack. Those Westminster dogs are extremelley overweight, over skinned, VBG, (more like bloodhounds), and so large I doubt they'd get anywhere near my lab gal. (And nope, no anti-Westminster person here, I know many of Manhattan's decendents, personally. You do know who Manhatten was right?) She, Ceilidh aka Boo, was 'adoptewd' at 4 mo old from the Erie SPCA in Philly. She was bought at a pet store, coming in on a puppymillers truck, I'm sure. And yet, even tho she has a very serious problem with her hips, (NOT hip dysplaysia, but not well bred.) Take the two of them, the Westminster Labrador winner and my adopted lab gal, out to do what Labs are BRED to do, and see who comes in the closest to the breed's 'standard' for doing what they were bred to do. It ought to be very simple. This will show a very big difference in shape and size. It, however, in no way, diminishes that my lab gal is a true lab, given her ht/wt standards, and also her main reason for being bred..... Even tho she was bred by unscrupulous 'breeders', she is so much more the 'field bred' lab and designed to do just that, moreso by a long shot than the overweight, fat, slobby, labs that win at Westminster!

"Janet B" wrote in message ... On Sat, 1 Apr 2006 13:26:10 -0500, "wolfpuppy" , clicked their heels and said: Yes there is. If your dog is too heavy, you cannot show. Standards are standards, and wt. is a standard just as is coat color, ht., and bite. please quote the akc standard for the gsd in regards to weight. And for a follow-up please state the AKC standards for weight for all of those Labrador Retrievers that have been coming up as BOB at Westminster.

"Steve Crane" wrote in message You might check the label and make sure they have finally added supplemental taurine to the food. No argument here, with you Steve, as you know I highly recommend NaturaPets products, all with added Taurine. Check out www.Naturapets.com or go to www.doberdogs.com to find any other foods with this. MaryBeth |
