    Broken Front Tooth

    I'd be worried about the different color. One of my dogs had broken teeth - caught too many frisbees in mid-air - and they were fine until the day I noticed that one was discolored. It was light pink, and my 'internet diagnosis' was bang on with what the vet said. The tooth was infected and had...

    Rant: If I Wanted to Buy That Crap

    You can order them but sometimes the distributors don't quite do their jobs. I had that problem a while back when I was trying to get some Felidae. The pet supply store had ordered it but kept getting the runaround - it may not be their fault.

    WHY do people believe this stuff?

    Cripes there are a lot of people running their mouths with bad advice out there! But your comeback was priceless! I'm going to remember that one!

    Ontario PitBull Ban in the Court of Appeal

    No it will not. But at least they are trying to get this thing repealed. And if they do, it will send a powerful signal. I'm trying to remain optimistic.

    I passed out twice today

    I used to have anemia. Maybe they'll give you iron supplements. They really helped me. Good luck.

    What are adoption fees in your area?

    The "small" shelter nearby charges $155 for puppies, $105 for adult dogs and $80 for senior dogs. The "fancy" shelter near the university town charges about the same except that purebreds are more, last time I was there it was $250. Breed specific rescues want at least $350 for PB Goldens, and...

    Women, pro-life and pro-choice, pay attention

    Y'know, I'm sorry about your miscarriage, I truly am. But did you read the link in the very first post? The Bush administration is out to criminalize the pill. That was the whole point of this thread.

    Women, pro-life and pro-choice, pay attention

    This is why we have to vote Democratic in the upcoming presidential election, regardless of "who you'd rather have a beer with." Look at the ages of the supreme court justices and who appointed them. THAT is scary. One more Republican president and the pendulum will be stuck at the right for...

    Cops raid home, kill two dogs (labs)

    PeTA and HSUS going for Helmsley millions

    Lilavati I'm not in the habit of arguing with lawyers LOL but my understanding is that there is $12 Mio for her dog, and then there is the $8 Bio from her estate for the 'care and welfare of dogs.' The Helmsley Foundation is overseeing the disposition of the second pot of money. I would think a...

    PeTA and HSUS going for Helmsley millions

    Remember Leona Helmsley? The NY hotel baroness gal who left $12 million to her dog Trouble? Well her estate is valued at up to $ 8 BILLION and is supposed to go to the "care and welfare of dogs." Look who's waving 'me, me, gimme the money, we do care and welfare of dogs!' PeTA and HSUS...

    I had to kick a dog today...

    I'm not about to lay into you. I think most people would defend their dogs from another dog. It's better than having to take your dog to the vet and have the other dog's owner blow you off over the costs, plus the police will never do a thing to help you. I've had it happen a couple of times...

    A whole new low, even for Peta

    http://www.aegis.com/NEWS/PR/2005/PR050911.html I guess there's no one suffering from AIDS whose life is worthy enough to fight for the rights of animals, only diabetics. Sheesh!

    A whole new low, even for Peta

    Send the body bag back. PeTA needs all they can get for those thousands of shelter animals they kill.

    Interesting article on aggressive dog breeds

    Laurelin that is a very good point - if the training or lack of it isn't part of the survey then you can ask what is the point of even gathering those data. To me the only reason would be to see if there is some legitimate reason for BSL - I happen to be opposed to it and so when I see...

    Interesting article on aggressive dog breeds

    The survey was the C-BARQ survey. http://w3.vet.upenn.edu/cbarq/ It was designed by Dr James Serpell, Director of the Center for Interaction of Animals and Society. http://www2.vet.upenn.edu/research/centers/cias/publications.html They look like they have experience designing...
