Also I don’t typically first launch personal attacks, but I do respond to them. All depending on the level of the initial attack is the harshness of my response. That’s why i haven’t launched any attacks here ;) I always try to attack the persons POV without attacking the person. If someone is attacking me personally then thats something else. Now some people must like what I’m doing since I get emails from people who view the boards but don’t post. There emails basically say they like what I’m saying on the message boards and don’t stop ;)

LOL But yeah, He shoulda gotten a rescued pit. imho. Those poor dogs have gotten the worst rap because of cruel owners. Sorry, I've said my peace, Please don't kill me.

Vendaval -> RE: Obama Picks a Dog (2/25/2009 11:19:27 PM)
My experience with pit bulls is that they are usually ok unless mistreated by the owners. But for a family dog you really want to be sure that the breed is going to be tolerant of youngsters.

Mellissande -> RE: Obama Picks a Dog (2/25/2009 11:22:49 PM)
True, but breed isn't usually a determining factor in tolerance, Training is. I have a pit and he was very stubborn, but he now is like a big baby and plays very well and very gently with the neighborhood children, some as young as 1 year. But no more, I don't want to hijack the topic. The portugese waterdogs scare me. I don't like not being able to see my dogs face, I might get very confused... like "are you asleep or staring intently at me?"

I like that the 1st Lady is insisting on a rescue, over store bought/breeder dogs.Sets a good example. She`s also insisting that the girls do the do-do clean ups. Un-like the previous tenant,who had other`s cleaning up the piles of poop. Kinda like the bush admin needed.he-he Wow,what a metaphor! Kidding,........this is all about the dog.That and the girls learning responsibility of ownership.

Vendaval -> RE: Obama Picks a Dog (2/25/2009 11:31:55 PM)
Most breeds have rescue groups that are specific to that breed in addition to all the private shelters around the country. One of my friends has 2 Golden Retrievers that he found that way.

My pit is a lovely and as calm as rocks.Never ramps up of makes a fuss.

It's not much of an improvement. I'd agree with the poor pits though. :( Poor little guys. I hate when a whole batch of them have to be put down because idiots raise them to fight eachother.

Vendaval -> RE: Obama Picks a Dog (2/25/2009 11:35:08 PM)
There was an older lady in my old neighborhood who dyed her poodle...pink. [sm=dunno.gif]

ScooterTrash -> RE: Obama Picks a Dog (2/25/2009 11:36:31 PM)
I imagine this is one place that President & I would likely be quoted the same, when addressing his family; "I've got better thing to dwell on than what breed of dog we have to have, pick something". He probably didn't really give a damned either way and just wanted the family to decide something, so the "media" would just back off and quit asking. In other words, great, glad they decided. Do I care? Not really.

BbwCanaDomme -> RE: Obama Picks a Dog (2/26/2009 4:04:59 AM)
Wow, this thread got kind of ridiculous. Anyways! My friend's mom has a 12 year old standard poodle/portugese water dog mix, and it's absolutely the sweetest dog in the universe (even though she used to chew on my sleeping bag whenever I slept over).

LadyPact -> RE: Obama Picks a Dog (2/26/2009 4:55:30 AM)
It's...... a........ dog. I highly doubt this is going to be the pivoting decision of the next four years.

The presidential family deciding on a breed of dog even made the news here in Germany, as did the death of Socks. I like it that they will be getting a rescue, setting a good example.

Crush -> RE: Obama Picks a Dog (2/26/2009 7:55:10 AM)
Actually, it was the first dog they could find that didn't have a tax problem.....

First time Ive seen one, thanks for the links:) Ithink for me it would be fine with short short lab cut but not the poodle frou frou. (I had some bad experiences with poodle and chihauhuah owners when I was little, but big assed dogs , I love em.) Lucy

They have the temperament of a teddy bear.Soft and clean,no drool.They can get up to a 100 lbs. or as small as 25. Saw a year old at the dog park yesterday.Boy, what a goofy fun dog he was.My rosie likes to rough-house and run hard and the other dog was way ok w/ that. As far as the deep political ramifications of PODUS pets goes,it`s a chance to F`n lighten up. Lord knows ,we need it.
