    Wow, my last post was a mess. What I meant to say was this type of site caters to the "fast food dog buying folks". Having rescue folks and breeders who put their ad in to educate will help those who want to learn. sorry that the last post was so unclear. I as sure I knew that I was saying…laugh.

    If this is a recent change, has the dog been seen by a vet? When a dog is in pain they will often have a behavorial change and be more grouchy and not like being touched.

    A dog would not necessarily be a bad idea in a normal museum setting but if you look at the pictures of that museum everything was displayed in such a way that it would be a huge temptation for an animal. In fact, it would be a huge temptation for a small child that was under adult supervision.

    You all make great points and I agree with you all. BUT I still think the public is adding to the population pet overcrowding, by having intact dogs. This should not in my opinion effect show dogs, as this is a whole other catagory. But, if they can give the distinction to cars, motorcycles, and trucks, why can't they give the distinction to show dogs, pet dogs and the like? I mean, its not brain surgery. I do understand everyone having issues with across the board pet legistation…but I think it can be broken up into sections, and handled according. Again, We need responsible show breeders and this is a totally different sect from the bubba's that just put 2 dogs together.
