    Yet, I am the one attacking? I don’t know what your problem with BRAT is but evidently you have one.<<

    Yet, I am the one attacking? I don’t know what your problem with BRAT is but evidently you have one.Your responses were unhinged, unrelated to what was being addressed an truly unworthy of more of a comment than this.

    I was addressing your attack of a member. Period. Whatever her mistakes, you turned it into abusive personal name calling.

    Yes, I have documented issues with Brat. None of which need airing here. None of which have anything to do with this thread other than acknowledging others also have issues, but it doesn't help the dog to address those thing when the dog is and should be the only issue. Your pretense of knowing everything on both sides neither helps nor impresses... nor excuses your personal abuse.

  • Unless you can prove she lied or defamed BRAT, you are doing the same to her.
    And yes, a moderator to remove your repeated personal attacks that are against forum rules.

  • Heather, when you or any client refuses to follow any professional's advice, they would be irresponsible and total idiots to continue to be listed as your doctor/vet/pharmacists/ dentists, whatever. Period. It is very telling that no vet will treat him if he is in your care. It says you have blown off all of their advice or gained such a reputation they won't risk it. You have managed to put the dog into an unsafe position of having no veterinarian. It doesn't matter if you are right about the meds if you lose the dog and he is euthanized. You are old enough to know it is necessary to convince a professional of your view. My vets have always met me at least halfway even when they disagreed because I went to them with solid research and specialists in the field willing to discuss the case with them. Add to this, BRAT owns the dog, not you. The vets have to answer to the legal owners.

    You locked in on sawdust and one brand. They said you could find an equitable brand. There is no research or medical proof that a dog needs freshly cooked meat.

    Your posts can still be seen by the moderators, and the police can demand copies if this issue escalates to a legal challenge.

    You have yourself and the dog backed into a corner. Adopt him, or offer to hold him while they euthanize him if you are really sure that is their intent. That they are pushing for intervention is a clear sign that you are about to lose any options. The police and animal control can appear at your door and simply take the dog. If you care about this dog, you need to be sure what you need to do to save him. You are not going to find that through venting on this board.

  • @dagodingo Just stop. She didn't say it was ONLY sawdust. And it is you who continue to make all-knowing claims. You have no better insight into Brat's intentions than anyone unless you sit on the board or tap their lines. And that isn't helping the dog for you to keep attacking her personally or defending Brat. It's about the dog. Not you puffing up about how you are reporting her, hope they get the dog, hope she's sued etc. Just focus on the dog.
    I care for basenjis. I don't equate being for or against or totally unconcerned with BRAT to be a test for loving the breed. Again, you want to keep on puffing up your defense of Brat. Focus on the dog.
    As for her posts, I have addressed her posts.. without calling her names or being abusive. Maybe that's why you missed them.

  • @debradownsouth She said it was sawdust, please go ahead and show me that RC satiety is sawdust? Link me to where it states RC satiety is sawdust as the statement says?

    The more you continue to defend the indefensible, the more I lose respect.

    You are equally implying that you know BRATs intentions and the facts here more than I do. It is you “puffing”yourself up and insulting me.

    Damn right I am focusing on the dog, you go right ahead and tell me it’s better to leave the dog where he is with no medical care.

    Go read their ingredients and research. Beyond bored with your obsession.

    The more you continue to defend the indefensible, the more I lose respect.

    No idea what "indefensible" you are accusing me of defending. But I'm pretty sure you know how deeply I care about your level of respect. I do care how you keep going off topic with personal attacks so I'm going to simply stop responding to your broken record.

    You are equally implying that you know BRATs intentions and the facts here more than I do. It is you “puffing”yourself up and insulting me.

    Speaking of lies.... there is one. I said NO ONE knows their intention who isn't on the board or wiretapping. Since I do either, that puts me in the "no one knows their intentions." Surprised you are so frothing you tried to twist that.

    Damn right I am focusing on the dog, you go right ahead and tell me it’s better to leave the dog where he is with no medical care.
    See above. You're making things up. I didn't say that either.

  • @debradownsouth You continue to attack me, and defend someone who admits to abusing a basenji.

    Many times I have seen you do the same to others and stayed out of it, not in future. YOU are the one attacking people on here.

    I replied to the OP and YOU were the one to then accuse me of attacking and interject yourself on your high horse as the arbiter of forum decorum and rules.

  • @debradownsouth Here is the ingredients list, show me where it says sawdust?

    https://www.royalcanin.com/us/dogs/products/vet-products/canine-satiety-support-weight-management-dry-dog-food

    Btw, the statement “is sawdust” implies that it “is sawdust”. It’s like saying Coke is water. It contains water but is not water. To state Coke “is water” is incorrect. Further, the threshold for defamation lawsuits hinges on actual malice. As such, the statement “they want me to feed Declan sawdust, would you feed your dog sawdust” given in the derogatory context (along with her statement that RC is “crap”), would clearly be defamation.

    So having cleared that up, what would you like me to point out next?

  • @debradownsouth “Damn right I am focusing on the dog, you go right ahead and tell me it’s better to leave the dog where he is with no medical care.”

    “See above. You're making things up. I didn't say that either.”

    See above, I didn’t say you did, I said “go ahead and tell me”

    Reading comprehension problem?

    If he gets along with other breeds of dogs, perhaps taking him to doggy day care or a dog park would help. I would definitely ask Brenda about this first. Some Bs do not get along with small white fluffy dogs as they think they are prey! Jennifer

    Jennifer I find a lot but all seems to be quoting one major study showing 21 percent of lab dogs exposed developed tumors http://www.google.com/search?q=site%3A.edu+dogs+and+radon

    I think you need to go back to house training 101…. just like if they were pups... and it is an adjustment.... My question is however... what was he like in the foster home? How did they do with house training... or more like what did they do about house training...?

    Sanitized bone should be fine… however like you said, these days I would not trust the "goo"... .... especially now that they have found that for many of the foods that "claimed" they didn't have rice, wheat, corn as the protein source, they really did.... or on the package it was listed as "protein source" that turned to be one of the above glutens...
