Oh, thats right, it won't remember! See, anyone can say anything to justify what they want to do. The pet owners with these implants have a right to know the potential risks and reasons behind such procedures. You attacking me just shows you don't care how the owner feels, just yourself. |
we aren't talking cars here! living creatures, remember? and fyi, if the tails etc bit was aimed at me- im in the uk.
all my dogs wear collars and tags, but because for health reasons and safety they are walked on harnesses, their collars are always Very loose, so could easily slip off. i also said to put the breeders name as the secondary, and owner first, why not take that up with your breeder; why assume every breeder wants to maintain a hold in a negative way, surely thats a good thing- that they show they care? i don't simply sell my pups and be done with it- i care about them. i will always take back and re-home puppies if needed, by offering that does that seem like i am maintaining a hold on them in a bad way? also, it is up to the new owner to to a bit of research on their new pet- you can't expect the breeders to o All the work for you (not you individually, but pet owners in general).
puppies are not how most of us on YT make our money- like commercial breeders do- not livestock, members of our families. we don't have dozens of litters per year. i can remember every single puppy i have raised and homed by name and picture... commercial breeder couldn't- there are too many... whole other kettle of fish.
and also, an attack on you? this is just a conversation on an open forums thread. its how they work- from differing opinions.
