You know what REALLy boils my blood?!?!
Now if they are correct show dogs and have tropheys and champions etc i can let them buy as these people are genuine breeders who try to make the breed better People who’s female accidently has a litter i sort of understand but at the sametime they should have there dog nuetered male or female Then there are the people that believe a female to have 1 litter is good for her boils my blood same applies to people that get a dog it may not be a crossbreed like my pit bull is full pit bull but isnt from champion/show dog lines (hopefully you all understand) and they think cause its not a crossbreed they must breed from it same applies to evan cross breeds WHAT IS IT WITH PEOPLE NOT NEUTERING AND FEEL AS IF THEY MUST BREE FROM THERE PET???? Or perhaps im just old fashioned and having the need to breed from your pet family dog or your own is the hip new thing!! Oh it really revs up my engine if you couldnt tell?! |

I don’t really understand why some people don’t believe in getting their dogs fixed, in all actuality, it is healthier for the dog to get fixed. Less worry about certain cancers, less worry about cysts, just alot less worry really. |

but its the people with crossbreeds or non top lined dog that they have to breed since when does getting a dog mean you have to breed from it? What is the desperate idea of wanting to do it? Just all around why breed a mutt or a dog that does have correct breed guidelines or charecteristics? It just annoys me... |

People just need to stop breeding dogs for the fun of it, and leave the breeding to the serious people who are dedicated to improving the breeds, for a better temperment, better health, and an all out better life. |

Why people need a agresive dog i do not no i personally dont want a people nor animal agressive dog but if i had to choose it would be animal agressive that way it would only pose a threat to animals and not people but to actually BREED two dogs together so a dog would naturally be like this is just f**ked up!!!! Who wants a puppy thats agressive? Who wants a dog that is genetically imbalanced than made to have a imbalanced personality? |

On the positive side, neutering male dogs eliminates the small risk (probably <1%) of dying from testicular cancer, reduces the risk of non-cancerous prostate disorders, reduces the risk of perianal fistulas, and may possibly reduce the risk of diabetes (data inconclusive). On the negative side, neutering male dogs, if done before maturity, increases the risk of osteosarcoma (bone cancer) by a factor of 3.8 (this is a common cancer in medium/large and larger breeds with a poor prognosis), increases the risk of cardiac hemangiosarcoma by a factor of 1.6; this is a common cancer and major cause of death in some breeds, triples the risk of hypothyroidism, increases the risk of geriatric cognitive impairment, triples the risk of obesity, and with it many of the associated health problems, quadruples the small risk (<0.6%) of prostate cancer, doubles the small risk (<1%) of urinary tract cancers, increases the risk of orthopedic disorders, and increases the risk of adverse reactions to vaccinations. On the positive side, spaying female dogs, if done before 2.5 years of age, greatly reduces the risk of mammary tumors, the most common tumors in female dogs, nearly eliminates the risk of pyometra, which otherwise would infect about 23% of intact female dogs; pyometra kills about 1% of intact female dogs, reduces the risk of perianal fistulas, and removes the very small risk (<0.5%) from uterine, cervical, and ovarian tumors On the negative side, spaying female dogs, if done before maturity, increases the risk of osteosarcoma by a factor of 3.1; (this is a common cancer in larger breeds with a poor prognosis), increases the risk of splenic hemangiosarcoma by a factor of 2.2 and cardiac hemangiosarcoma by a factor of more than 5; this is a common cancer and major cause of death in some breeds, triples the risk of hypothyroidism, increases the risk of obesity by a factor of 1.6 – 2, and with it the many associated health problems, causes urinary spay incontinence in 4-20% of female dogs, increases the risk of persistent or recurring urinary tract infections by a factor of 3-4, increases the risk of recessed vulva, vaginal dermatitis, and vaginitis, especially for female dogs spayed before puberty, doubles the small risk (<1%) of urinary tract tumors, increases the risk of orthopedic disorders, and increases the risk of adverse reactions to vaccinations.

There are tons of purebred dogs in shelters. As more and more shelters require people to fill out applications, introduce pets to each other, and perform home inspections, the amount of adoptions are slowly dwindling. The average pet owner doesn’t want to have to fill out tons of paperwork or receive an interview. As stated, it’s easier to buy from a backyard breeder. Plus, the purebreds in shelters can be quite pricey. When I lived in Idaho, there was a Saint Bernard at the Idaho Humane Society for $300.00. I looked at the classifieds in the newspaper and found an add for $250.00 Saint Bernard puppies. I’d love to adopt a dog from my local humane society right now. I’m certain I would be unable to due to the fact that I don’t have a fenced yard. Honestly, knowing this makes me want to buy from a backyard breeder. I’m sure I’m not the only one in this situation who feels the way I do. Now, to get to my point. I’m certain that the majority of backyard breeders have it in their mind that they’re doing the world a service. They think that offering purebred dogs for low prices is the best thing since dinosaur chicken nuggets. I’m also certain that most backyard breeders think that breeding dogs is acceptable because, in their opinion, they’re not at fualt for the current pet overpopulation problem. |

Alot of people don’t realize the humane societies and responsible breeders are only making sure their puppies and rescues are going to good, loving, SAFE, and dog friendly environments. I’m happy they do these things, now if the backyard breeders and puppy mills would only stop being irresponsible, there wouldn’t be so many dogs in shelters, because only responsible owners would have puppies and dogs. Same goes for cats. I am going to college for veterinary technology so I have firm beliefs in getting you animals spayed/neutered if your not planning to responsibly breed them. It prevents bad and worse things to come. This especially goes for cats, there are so many cat being rescued that most older ones are being put to sleep because there are so many kittens, and adoptions aren’t going as fast as hoped. |

Quote: I am going to college for veterinary technology so I have firm beliefs in getting you animals spayed/neutered if your not planning to responsibly breed them
the way i see it unless you are a top notch breeder then your dogs shouldnt be spayed, if you are buying from a top notch breeder the pup should be spayed as im not sure if USA is the same as Norway but top notches dont allow you to breed with there pups a contract is signed amd if you break it the dogs taken back to the owner same applies to showing the dog an the same rules applys to top quality cats (i had it when i got my mum 2 Persian cats) Now are rule is here which i dont agree with is a dog is only to be nuetered if it has a medical problem now a vast majority of the population including me still go to get are pets nuetered heck i nueter my dogs, cats evan my rabbit and if i could my Gerbils but my little boys only have eachother and they are gentlemen and behave wonderful! Now despite are goveement rule we dont have strays, very little dogs in shelters and when you see a dog advertised 7/10 times its a purebred you will very little come a lcross a mutt plus are top notch dogs dont cost so much a adoption fee from the shelter if its still correct from when i got Kimbå it should be 696NOK approx 100$ and a top quality dog from a top notch breeder as a 8week old pup is 6,000NOK approx 800$ BUT Great Danes, Bullmastiffs, Dogue de Bourdeaux, English Bulldogs, Mastiff these breeds from a 8week old pup once again from a top notch breeder can cost us around 100,000NOK But it just shows that people here that try to pass off there pups as top notch dogs doesnt work it truely doesnt we are smart people and we go by price and BYBs that expect alot get thrown to the side and not bought from no matter how cheap or evan if they sell for the same price as quality breeders |

Quote: Having a fenced in yard is kind of essential to having a dog when you live in the city, not so much when you live in the country.
That’s definitely not true. I’ve lived in the city the majority of my life, and I’ve resided in many apartments. I’ve had several apartment dogs, all of which were probably 50 pounds +. I’ve never tied them up or let them run loose. I always had them leashed when outside, and I went out of my way to give them the exercise they needed. Quote: A lot of people don’t realize the humane societies and responsible breeders are only making sure their puppies and rescues are going to good, loving, SAFE, and dog friendly environments. On the contrary. I’m quite sure that people are aware of this. They just don’t care. As stated, the average pet owner wants to obtain a dog without hassle. The average pet owner doesn’t want to have to fill out an application, have their home inspected, fill out a questionnaire, etc. I understand that humane societies are trying to ensure that their dogs find good homes. I think they could do better if they went about it differently though... I only support spaying/ neutering your dog if you’re a casual pet owner (i.e.: you don’t plan to breed your dog, you don’t have the time to ensure that your dog doesn’t mate, etc.). As I stated earlier, there are more negatives than positives when it comes to fixing your dog. |

i have to agree with this as much as i prefere to rehome a rescue and evan when i fostered ex racing Greyhounds which was before i had Nelly and Kimbå when i had my first dog Sacha the Dobermann Rott mix evan with that its forms, forms, forms and you guessed it more forms!! I applied for a couple of dogs i was intrested in before i got Milla both were Dobermanns and despite growing up with the breed since i was 4 (am now almost 20) having 2years working with, selling and buying working Dobermanns etc and owning them as pets and having known a ton of info on them as they are my #1 i was still found to be unfit they thought i wasnt "strong" enough to own one if i wasnt strong enough i couldnt keep my workers under control, i definetly wouldnt apply for one! They thought my home was unsuitable my home is a large studio masionette with a back yard the size of a small football pitch with a 9ft rabbit run with hutch in it amd its still huge space left, i reckon it may have been down to my age? But the shelters just p!ssed me off so much thats why i got Milla from a breeder in Poland and smuggled her in not right to have a illegal breed in the country but they dont know what she is they just think she is a Staffordshire Bull Terrier thats what she is registerd as and has a dodgy paperwork the vets dont need the breeder paperwork only time i would need it is for showing but im not showing her so all is fine really But in conclusion i agree not all of us like forms and people poking around are homes and in my case i dont like being critisized saying im not fit to look after/own a Dobermann when i f**king am!! End of :) |

i also heard that in USA that some states put Pit bulls on the house insurance that true? If it is what does that do? If your dog attacks someone you loose your house? I heard that it applies to Mastinis (Mastiffs), all Bullies, Rotts, Dobermann, Boxer, GSD pretty much all "demon" considered breeds |

The insurance you have to have on pitbulls is not just pet insurance, it’s 100,000 insurance in case your dog attcks a person or someones pet, you are covered to pay for medical bills, you also have to have a fenced in yard, a tie out, and a muzzle for the dogs. |

Or does it only apply to certain states? Ill be f**ked when i move to America if Milla is still alive ill have her and definetly a Dobermann or Rott and i would love to have a couple of gaurd dogs lol but only if i had a huge fancy pad plus if Zena and Thor havent been killed on a hunt then theyll have a kennel lol but holy heck the insuramce company would live my wallet haha |

I am on about people that have a heinz 57 all variety dog and they feel as if they MUST breed it because it looks "cute" or "she will be a good mum and it will be good for her" these are the people that i am on about im sorry if you thought i was aiming it at everyone including you but i wasnt as i said i have always repected in what you do like if i was ever to become a Dobermann worker or Bullmastini hunter breeder it would be the good quality ones with good working and correct standards etc but i highly doubt i ever would |
