I don't think it's a low blow to bring up zoey. When my dog Barney tore his ligament, gemy suggested it was due to early neutering. I found myself laughing out loud at that proposterous suggestion....that an early neutered 11.5 year old who jumped off a bed and onto a hardwood floor could have had that happen because he was early neutered. I could care less what anyone thinks though. I spent 26 weeks with my beloved dog fixing his ligament, having the repair break, and taking him to therapy twice a week at the tune of several months' pay. So this nonsense about hurt feelings and respected members is a crock. I have contributed thousands of posts with real merit and experience and have often been the recipient of attacks and disdain...as has jodi. You have a problem, talk to the moderator instead of lynching members like Jodi as if she was a shelter dog approaching the gas chamber.
