We have Arizona dirt shirts, Sedona dirt shirts, many resorts to go too. Arizona is a great place to see, especially in October. Arizona is at the center of attention by the entire United States over this bill. Many other states are ready to pass laws just like ours and are just waiting to see what happens to us first. The whole law is like a keg of dynomite. |

Glad to hear you say this about Arizonia in October.. I'm going to be in Phoenix for an IABCA show in October and was hoping it wasn't going to be really REALLY hot!! Coming from MN, about that time of year, we're already getting our Parka's and Sorels out so it will be a nice change for a few days. Looking forward to it. -Diana:animal-pa |

I did not take what you said in bad way. I understood it as you meant it and as you typed it. Obviously people can misunderstand ones "tone" on a forum. But, it was not offensive to me. I do think that more people need to help in shutting down puppy mills. You are passionate about Parti's and want them to be recognized by the Yorkie world, you are a far cry from a puppy mill. You are not the only one who wants this for the parti. I have read this thread and some of it is crazy. :eek: |

My comment was not back handed or flippant. it was sincere. It was not a remark, it was a suggestion. I cannot for the life of me figure out how anyone could take the suggestion to crusade against puppy mills as something negative. I guess some people are so angry they see negativity in everything. just read the words that I write, not someone elses interpretation. |

It tells her to move on to another TOPIC not another THREAD and suggests that her time would be better spent doing something worthwhile, like crusading against puppy mills (meaning it is a worthwhile cause), rather than to waste her time bashing parti breeders. We are not going to go away so bashing us is a waste of time Now explain to me exactly how that was making light of puppymills in any way what so ever. Quote:

I like your new signature too and wish exhibitor and hobby breeders would back legislation to end puppymills. But sadly, most do not because of their fear of what the new laws would mean for their breeding programs and the number of dogs they own. I do understand their concern and wish legislation could be written in ways that would avoid affecting negatively the truly reputable breeders. Browsing through the animal protection and welfare section on YT you will notice with the exception of a few comments by a few reputable breeders, there are no breeders posts supporting puppymill legislation.:confused: In fact, for all you see written about puppymills and YT members wanting to put an end to them, that section of this forum is dismal in member participation (I'm guilty too). Now having said the above, I really don't understand how you (and Nancy) took Jeannie's post to be "making light" of anyone's work with the puppymill situation. Also, I agree with others that her comment about checking back in on partis in ten years had nothing to do with mills. |

I hve often wonderexd why the AKC and all of the Breed clubs, with all of the influence, were not lobbying for legislation. Now it makes sense. The UK has legislation against them. I have no idea how it reads, perhaps someone from the UK can explain it. But I was told, they do not have pet stores or brokers. All pets have to be purchased from the breeder. I realize "that" in itself is not going to stop puppy millsd but it might slow them own. |
The complaints Ive seen from breeders regarding legislation is that it also affects hobby and show breeders. I dont think any breeders would be against legislation that just targeted puppy mills |

Jeannie has told various people on this thread that their posts are not welcome and again she told Yorkiekist that she should do something "better" with her time. Yorkiekist has shown in interest in the past in the problems in puppy mills, which very few breeders here have done publicly, and I have worked very hard trying to get breeders involved in some of the solutions. To make light of the problems of puppy mills, and reputable breeders involvement in the solutions is reprehensible. I believe the remark was made in a glib and snide way, if you actually believe her quote, "maybe you could go and crusade against puppy mills, that would be a far better use of your time." was a sincere suggestion, that is indeed your prerogative, but knowing a little of past threads and history, I do not. |
