Morning all Yes you can take a pet that has passed at home to a Vet office and for a price they will send it to be cremated with other animals that have died. I have done it. Now politics it in everything that has a winner and more. Its at the office its at the schools in churches ....... So in the show ring its who knows that Judge and did she put hair colour on her cat and you take my cat up so the judge doesn't see whos cat it is . The judge don't like me. We don't like to think that people who are in charge are not alway fair put it happens more that we would like to admit. Then just between fellow breeders it can get so political. I have not shown dogs I would think its not much different. |
There is a saying when 3 or more humans are gathered together - there is politics. Politics the word the noun has become synonymous with a whole host of negative connotations. I muse how this has come to be. Is there politics in the show ring? Yes there is. All the time? No. More than a few times the best dog does win. In the ring this weekend - Dara won her breed then went onto group. It was a small show and therefor a small group was present. The judge was very fair - even though 1st to 4th placement was won by pro handlers 3 out of the 4 dogs I would have picked. the 4th placement was up for debate in my mind. And the judge did debate between Dara and the 4th placement as she re looked Dara and had her run again against the dog that eventually placed 4th. The show world is far from perfect - but it is what we have. As dog loving folks support your show breeders for without these breeders you would not have the beautifull purebreds you have today - and without support the future is very un-certain for the purebred dog. |

Deviruchi I accept your apology. I know that up hear in Canada we don't use that word anymore. My daughter studied in the US in the medical field. And the word retarded was still being used that was a few years ago now, It bothered her alot . We all make mistakes we apologize we accept we move on. |

Apology accepted. But please lose that word from your vocabulary. It is highly offensive to many folks, especially those of us who have loved, lived and worked with children and adults of differing abilities. |

@txviki yeah, my apologies, english is not my first language and i wasn't trying to refer it as someone with disabilities. @mybellababy i worked in brain injury unit and as well as other hospital units and we didn't really use that word to associate those with mental disabilities.. we just stated what disability the patient had, but never anything that had to do with the word *retard*. i've used it commonly with friends to joke around with in high school and in college.. didn't really think of that word as anything more than just *stupid*. but again, i'm sorry, i didn't mean to ruin anyone's morning with that. @gemy i'll try to avoid that word here.. i'm sorry again. |
Slightly off topic, but when you get back the cremated remains, don't you think there's too much of it? My vet charges more for individual cremations (you get back your dog's ashes). The cheaper group cremation you don't get back any ashes. When Scrappy passed, we had him cremated and I wanted to keep his ashes. He was about 4 lbs. I think there are too many ashes and too heavy. And don't ashes weight like nothing? I have a feeling it's not him in there. |
Breeding Just wondering what you meant by wanting him to experience being a father? He will not know what he is missing if he's never a father. The "father " experience is also short lived if you plan on selling the puppies. Was just curious. |
