Punky says they don't have any, however.... Even if they did what is your point? My Di is totally blind from cataracts, what do YOU recommend I do? The attempt to slam Punky actually hit me because I have a dog with cataracts... Rather ironic since I did defend you earlier....
Here she is.... she does just fine actually, so I am not sure your point...
And with her family...

I think she is referring to the glowing eyes in the pics in my sig. I didn't think anyone could be so ignorant to camera effects. lol. And I also think he is referring to Harry, who if you can read it says Harry passed away in January.
Maybe you, bigdogs, should get your RESCUED animals ALTERED, and stop adding to the overpopulation.

Punky, can I suggest you just leave bigdogs threads alone, you're going to give yourself a hernia.
She is NOT a troll.
She isn't even a god awful person. She just doesn't do things how YOU do them.
She is being more responsible tham average joe and fact is she didn't have to post anything at all, and noone would have known....
She may not be sticking to the "perfect dog owners handbook" but she's doing a job with them, and I bet there are 10 other people out there pumping pups out of their own dogs on purpose and dumping them at the kill shelter, or on the streets.
These pups have a chance, and I am sorry, but I got my dog from a SIMILAR (not same) situation, and it all worked out hunky dory.
It is NOT the end of the world as we know it. No crime against humanity. Noone will die.
How many people here have dogs from places where the owner now has no responsibility? Me, I do. Anyone who adopted from a shelter. Anyone who bought a puppymill dog.
Bigdogs hasn't taken on more than SHE can handle - she's handling it. Just not how YOU want her to.
How would you possibly know I am over stressing myself, and going to give myself a hernia? I don't think about this person when i am not online. I don't get stressed with online trolls. You couldn't possibly be able to see me through the computer screen.
How is wanting to breed a dog who she supposedly rescued, who happens to be a breed that is VERY overbred over here in the U.S responsible in ANY way? Its NOT.

After her last few threads/posts... I dont know how anyone could state she is not a troll?!
spiked collars in place of neutering.
not neutering a dog because her "genius" son said not to.
this wierd obsession with this dogs male anatomy.
the if I were a cop thread...
The insinuation that she may in the future breed one or more of these dogs.
Im sure I could find more.

A troll is someone who posts to wind people up and start fights intentionally.
Now, she may be daft, but I don't think this is INTENTIONAL.
And punky, it was a joke
I don't think this person will change just because you repeat the same thing AT her 20 times plus.
It's not even an evolving conversation...
Don't do this.....
but I am.
Don't do it..
But I am.
No, don't...
But I am.
No..
Yes.
No
Yes
No
Yes.....
And so on.

Something doesn't need to be a catastrophic natural disaster to be "bad" or "not a good idea."
If she can't find a way to guarantee that these puppies will be fixed--either by doing it before they leave her OR by making sure the new owners will fix them (by charging more of a fee, then giving them back money when they show proof of fixing, for example)--then she isn't "handling" the situation responsibly. And that is what a foster dog brings--RESPONSIBILITY.
I'm glad for every dog who came from a puppy mill, BYB, or shelter who ended up in a loving home. How many don't? How many just die? If these puppies grow up and have more puppies, what will their fate be? Here is an opportunity to prevent that scenario.
(Also, have you read the thread over in the Health section? If not, I suggest you read it all the way through.)
I am still trying to figure that one out.
At this point I'm praying she is a troll because it's better than the alternative.

Im pretty sure she is doing this too wind people up... people who post seriously ask questions and then at least take some advice.... if I ask a question I may get 10 different answers... so I look through them all and take the best one in my opinion... but if I constantly asked questions and took NO ONES advice into consideration my point in being here would be what?! That is what I fail to see... why she is here? She isnt here for help, she isnt here for people to admire her because no one here does... so what is her point? Even though we understand she is a troll... people still feel the need to correct her idiocies so that lurkers wont take anything she says as fact.
If she was banned, it would be easier, we wouldnt constantly have to correct things.. .do you really want some lurker going out to find info on a Pitweiler?

Oh please. The average person spays and neuters their pets because they don't want the hassle and because they blindly follow the advice of their vet. The average person abides by contracts when adopting an animal from a shelter or rescue.
I don't think BigDogs is a troll. I just think she is someone who is proud of the fact she now owns a "pit bull" and enjoys the aspect of raking in an easy profit breeding dogs that appeal to the "dangerous" crowd because it's a huge ego boost and reputation go-getter.

I think a lot of people who find this board are average people.
I had never been to any type of dog forum or anything before in my life and was looking for a food for Elle because her breeder was mad that we were going to feed Purina ONE and that is a really good food.... so I googled... "quality dog foods" and low and behold I found this forum... I started reading through and "OMG, Purina isnt a good food?" and "I never heard of Innova", "why would anyone feed a food they never heard of?"
Now if there were tons of trolls on here at the time saying ONE was good food, I may have stuck with it and never been back and all my pets would be eating Purina.
That is the importance of correcting misinformation on this board.

I had a very similar experience. I adopted Lucy, and knew next to nothing about dogs. (We had one when I was REALLY little). I was annoyed that the shelter wanted me to buy her $50 food, when costco sold bigger bags for $20. I googled to find out if it was worth it, and found this place.
There are DEFINITELY average people who read it. They may not stick around, but I'd bet the majority of casual lurkers are average folks.
