However, if you give the information in a tactful way people are more likely to listen. Remember the sang you can catch more flies with honey than vinegar. I if we change our way of speaking to others on this forum, then people are more likely to listen to us. If people continue writing post where they attack instead of giving constructive criticism, then more people will be fleeing the forum and not starting new threads. Nobody is going to read flaming words from somebody's hot lips even if the poster is right. LOL
You are right; I think I was so angry when I read: "There is a big difference between a show dog and a tiny little pet"; I should have taken my time to reply instead of typing furiously. I was using doing a play on words using the word "show" and it just came out, as in "shows me . . . ", and that was too smart alecky, it's a problem I have, even at my age. I do have to stand by the rest of my reply, and as stated previously in post 90, I have no hopes of changing any breeder's mind, but I don't want to offend people who are actually trying to learn about choosing a good breeder. I shall try to do better. May I say, you set a fine example for scolding someone.
