I guess that many breeders get frustrated at seeing the same questions asked time and time again. When you get 50 threads titled "My dog is X days pregnant, WHAT DO I DO, HELP!" the breeder may decide why answer this one again and move on. Or, they'll kindly answer a question then you see the same question asked 20 more times. Next time, they may not be so kind.
With over 1,000,000 posts, you'd think that their question has been asked at least once. The only time that I've seen posts that come close to being rude are the ones where breeders give their advice. Then, the OP gets on the defensive and accuses everyone of attacking them. I'll say it again...what one may seem as rude may be fine to another.
People need to learn to get a thick skin. Don't be so sensitive to what you see written. Unless someone is coming right out and telling a person that they're stupid, heed the advice, take it and run with it. |
I agree. I've learned real fast that anyone who wants to be serious about the show/breeding world needs to have a thick skin. I think people have a difference in a opinion on what a "positive post" is. To me a positive post is helpful, informative, or educational with the best interest of the breed and dogs at heart...not necessarily sugar-coated to give everyone warm, fuzzy feelings inside. So...again, some things need to be said..people need to stop being so sensitive...read and learn..don't get defensive.
