 Uhh....yeah.
"So of course, I made an effort to make sure everybody thought twice before they would torture their animal like that. If people like you post here that "eight hours is okay", I fear some people might actually believe that. So I'm just putting in a little effort to make sure less dogs out there are suffering."
ROFL-WHAT??? So I suppose that I've been "torturing" animals all my adult life and make a successful living from doing just that.
That's a bit extreme.
And it sounds like you believe everything you read. It's best, imo...since we both clearly have them, that one should read a book and then practice it w/ your own PET...not wolf. What you've read simply doesn't sit completely right w/ me. If you're to go on to try and work w/ dogs professionally, then you simply MUST do waaaay much more than read some book. You must have loads of hands on experiences w/ thousands of variables and be able to take your base method and tweak it oh so slightly to fit each case. Books often do not have all the answers...just suggestions and ideas. When a book-if you're a reader-fails to give you the answers or results you were looking for, then you consult a professional and hope they're worth their grain of salt.
Putting your average pet dog in a crate for the amounts of time I said and then properly handling them when you get home is nothing shy of PROPER REARING.
It looks like we will need to agree to disagree on this entirely! |
