Well, if YOU are an example of the spelling ability of U.S. students, I have to agree with you. Haven't you seen any of the programs on the Dumbing Down of America? And how long did it take you to look up the definition of subtlety? Or did you even look it up, lol. Someday if you get to...

All right, smarty pants!!!!! YOU take two Equate gel Cold Capsules and see what YOUR fingers come out with, rofl. Let's see if you can get this correctly---if you were explaining to someone that in the English language we have the words two, too and to, how would you spell it, telling them...

That was excellent, Blue! Not true but clever. And congrats on the improvement in your spelling. It is noted and appreciated.

Egotisical=EGOTISTICAL Beleive=BELIEVE Im=I'M non=NONE ment=MEANT I would suggest that you take some serious spelling courses so in doing so you can improve your reading comprehension. I will explain exactly what you did not comprehend in my above post-----------9 pointer....we have no...

Ignore the Manchester clamped onto the hock.

Well let down on hock refers to a dog who is "seated" into his rear. That is MY description. With a dog with proper rear angulation, as say a Dobe, the bone from the hock will run almost parallel to the ground before joining to the lower leg. You seldom see it any more, since the rear...

You must live in Canada? I have heard the term "reserve champion" around here in the states. I must differ with you (surprise, lol). Anyone can finish a dog. You want me to tell you how it's done? You get all your friends to handle all your "pet" dogs, or pay for them to show their dogs...

ROfl...........too close??? Ya can't get any closer!!!! I sure as heck would never do it. Janet was "in the family way" when I got her. Did not know till she kept getting bigger and bigger and bigger! She had 8 poopie pups. They were Sooooooooooo cute! My second bitch came from New...

You are right. But it seems to be easing off. I haven't had to take any cold capsules to breathe today. I just hate colds. But ever since the Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever I seem to be a tad more susceptible to getting blasted colds. At least no here can catch it, lol.

Impressive pedigree, is it not? Can you tell which type of breeding it represents? Of course if that is Kelly's pedigree, it is an inbreeding now that I think of it. I rescued Kelly's mother from Mary, and Janet was already "expecting"......boy was she expecting. PIcture a 10 pound dog with...

I am truly sadden by your experience. I can relate. Lovely breedings...gorgeous pedigrees......AND DEMODECTIC MANGE. Puppies having to be put to sleep at 5 months because of feet so infected they could not even stand up. Breeding can be a heartbreak. I was fortunate with the Manchesters to...

I apologize for the confusion. Actually the Manchester breed is about 300 years older than the Doberman. I first became besotted with Dobermans. But after things like cardiomyopathy (sudden death syndrome) and von Willebrand's surfaced, I admitted defeat. Plus the predisposition of the breed...

You are correct.....anyone can finish a dog if they have the time, money and grit. That is why I mentioned in a couple of posts getting a dog ranked, or other awards which goes far beyond getting a championship. Also, there are breeds where a championship actually represents...

For those who might be curious..... May I present my grandson, out of my bitch Sophie. The quality goes on and on. http://www.kismet.net/fwaggle/today/indy.htm MBIS Can/Am Ch. Burmack Gaenja's Crusader at Fwaggle, CHOF, CROM/AROM

Redy, I am curious....how many dogs have you bred that have finished? Also, ya got any dogs that were ranked? Any that got Club Awards??? Just nosey.
