I don't have a problem at all with ethical breeders. These are ones that work to improve their specialised breed through breeding and education about their breed(s). I do have a problem with some of the types of breedings that I've seen, such as a Teacup Poodle. In MY opinion, this is not bettering the breed but making it more delicate and weaker, which is a whole 'nother thread in itself. I've know many people who will swear by their pet shelter animal. I still prefer that people that are simply looking for a family pet go to the pet shelter. I adopted a dog once from a humane shelter in Minneapolis. Long story short . . . . the dog had been surrendered for "barking too much in an apartment". Since I had a house, it was no big deal. Through trial, error and first hand experience, we found that the dog had been abused, neglected and who knows what all. The dog was such a biter I was getting bitten, on average, once a day for about two months. I tried every way I knew and tried to have as much patience as I could but this dog would just turn around and bite for any reason he felt necessary even when there wasn't one. I felt sorry for him but my hands were tired of being bitten and I was afraid for my toy poodle's safety as well.

Pets at the pet store are typically sold "whole" because to take a dog to a dog show or to certain competitions which would measure confirmation of the animal, the dog cannot be altered in any way. Although, if I wanted a dog that was show quality, I'd go to a reputable breeder and not to a pet store. Many people are under the misconception that animals WANT to be parents. A bitch or a queen WANTS to have offspring to nuture. Or that they MUST breed at least once so that the animal has the chance to experience parenthood.

Yeah, but apparently, even that doesn't help all that much

The Mirror of Her Dreams - Stephen R. Donaldson

Dubh Aingeal by word of mouth.

I haven't gone at all this past winter but winter before last, not only were the bathrooms not clean, there was a VERY noticeble lack of toilet tissue as well as the toilets not flushing at all. Having to wait outside the ladies room while someone takes a bucket of water in there to flush the toilets is not high on my list of Fun to Do. And as someone already stated, heating/cooling is also an issue. While I've not seen the basement like SG has, I'm sure it's in quite a state of disrepair.

There are certain facets of my life that I simply won't publicly post about. If I'm having issues at work, can't figure out how to handle a co-worker, or just had a fecking bad commute to and from work, yeah, I'll post about it. But if I'm having issues with the boyfriend, the roommate or my best friend, no I won't talk about them here. Someone tried to do that to me once on the old DGN. They posted as if they were speaking about someone who never even knew about DGN. When I read the post, I just about choked on my soda because it suprised me so badly. I never want to do that to any one else so my personal issues don't make it here. When I was involved in other online communities that weren't so geographically concentrated as DGN is, I didn't have as much of an issue in sharing more private aspects because it's like "You live in Vermont and you live in Texas and you live in Alaska and you live in India and . . . . . " I wasn't concerned about the information doubling back on me and biting me in the arse somewhere along the line. Having a geographically closer community as DGN is allows for more slipups and sharing of information.
