| When being used to talk about breeding etc. when you are in dogs, it doesn't phase me at all. I do remember back when I was dating my husband who is now my ex I was at KMart with my mom, this is back in the 80's, and I heard someone scream across the store Hey Bitch. I thought I would die, my mom was in a fighting mood LOL until she realized who it was. It was my husbands grandmother. I could have hid under a rock. But to refer to a dog such as Winners Bitch, its just part of the terminology. Deana Prestigeous Yorkies |

| it doesnt offend or bother me its just weird when im reading a post and a see the word bitch and im like uh oh for a min and then i have to realize we are talking about a female dog and we just arent on here calling each other bitches lol. i guess since its used so bad and some of us regularly dont hear or see it so much online lol then its just a little shock when we see the word and then we have to realize. i curse like a sailor too lol but i use the famous F word a lot lol |

YT 2000 Club Member | I do not use bad language and I think that I would have trouble calling my dog a Bitch. Good thing I will have a boy!! My mom has no problem calling the girls little bitches, and she refers to herself as The Queen of the Bitches and is Proud of it. I guess that makes me and my sisters princesses after all!! |

Donating YT 2000 Club Member | Other than in the ring, the use of the word Dam is acceptable. |

We have a female cat that we call "B" or "Big B", but for some reason that doesn't bother me

Seriously, the word doesn't bother me either. And the reason it became a slang/derogatory word for women was that they were using the term to apply facets of female dogs to women. So if your female dog is a sweetie, and someone calls you a bitch, take it as a compliment! | |

| terms The terms Bitch (female) and Dog (male) mean something totally different then the terms..Dam and Sire...all Dams/ Sires are Dogs and bitches, but not all Dogs/bitches are sires and dams... I relish my title as "Alpha Bitch"...LOL |

| All of you are so fun to learn from. Lets see if I got this straight from Yorkie Rose's post. Any male dog is a Dog (real clever) Any female dog is a Bitch Any male breeding dog is a Sire (or a Dog) Any female breeding dog is a Dam (or a Bitch) Is this correct?
