Hershey I'm sticking my- tongue out at- you!     Barked: Tue May 29, '12 1:06pm PST  Yesterday was Hershey's birthday, and my princess turned ELEVEN! I have to be honest and say it is bittersweet! She is still running zoomies like a puppy and has more energy than I can harness. We just had lab work and x-rays done in April and she is great, and I'm thankful for that...so very thankful! But, I still don't like that number creeping up. But, we had a party and she got all kinds of spoiled! I just can't believe it's been 11 years!! my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Hershey I'm sticking my- tongue out at- you!     Barked: Thu May 10, '12 4:34pm PST  Since it IS illegal to leave a dog unattended in a car where I live, it's not a waste of time. I also live where it's already hot and humid. I was giving you the view point of someone who sees the other side of it. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Dog Laws & Legislation > Someone called the cops

Hershey I'm sticking my- tongue out at- you!     Barked: Thu May 10, '12 7:59am PST  First, I didn't say that I brake people's windows to "rescue" their dogs, but that I know someone who does. I do not. I will have the store page them if possible and then call the cops if necessary. Second, while I do completely do believe it is irresponsible to leave a dog unattended in a car ever, under any circumstance, I did not say that you have no business owning dogs. I am sure that if someone scrutinized everything I do with mine, someone would find something they find irresponsible, and the same could probably be said with every single dog owner. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Dog Laws & Legislation > Someone called the cops

Hershey I'm sticking my- tongue out at- you!     Barked: Wed May 9, '12 1:13pm PST  There are more dangers than just the heat. What if someone broke into the car and stole the dogs? I know someone that will break a car window if they ever see dogs unattended in a vehicle. What if a dog moves the gear shift and puts the car in gear? Ive seen it happen. The alternative is one of you go in Wal Mart and one of you stay with the dogs. Is there any reaso why you both absolutely had to go in? When we go on vacation and go into a non pet friendly place, one stays with the dogs and one goes to the store. Yes, I find leaving animals alone in a vehicle incredibly irresponsible, no matter what the temperature is. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Dog Laws & Legislation > Someone called the cops

Hershey I'm sticking my- tongue out at- you!     Barked: Tue May 8, '12 1:36pm PST  In some states it is illegal to leave a dog in the car unattended. Honestly, I might have dine the same thing. There are more dangers to the dog than just heat, and it CAN get too hot in the car at night, especially in the south. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Hershey I'm sticking my- tongue out at- you!     Barked: Sat Oct 15, '11 11:01pm PST  I get ya Sampson. We don't have the dumping problem here on our farm, but I could see it happening. Ironically, people would dump cats at our house when we lived in town...very pregnant cats (I mean...within days of deliver). Because of this I once ended up with 19 cats at one time! Our shelter is HIGH kill, so I refused to take them to the shelter. I called my vet, and he agreed to vaccinate and alter at no cost after hours and help us find them homes. But people kept dumping cats and kittens for a while. Thank God our vet helped. We kept the special needs cats and now have 6....a number we can manage and we moved....no more dumping. I couldn't have done that with dogs. I love my cats dearly and they are all getting older now, but I do not see me getting another cat any time in the near future. I'm worn out. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Dog Laws & Legislation > PETA's Latest Scandal (White House “Spay/Neuter” Petition)

Hershey I'm sticking my- tongue out at- you!     Barked: Sat Oct 15, '11 10:08pm PST  Dumping them in the country is the best option unless its your farm they are dumping them at. Then, it's not a good option at all. I'm with Sampson on this. I'm 100% against MSN and against pediatric s/n for large/giant breeds. To me, it's about what is best for the dog, not what is most convenient for the human. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Dog Laws & Legislation > Can action be taken to stop someone from euthanizing their healthy dog?

Hershey I'm sticking my- tongue out at- you!     Barked: Thu Sep 1, '11 2:26pm PST  Legally, a dog is property. Sadly, many vets will put down a healthy pet at the owners request. Do you live in a rural or urban area? In many cities, it is illegal to discharge a firearm within the city limits. But in rural areas, I highly doubt it would be illegal. There are situations where shooting an animal is the most humane thing that can be done, though this is obviously not one of those cases. I would probably do everything I could to get her to give me the dog. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Dog Health > How bad is it for dogs to eat cat poop?

Hershey I'm sticking my- tongue out at- you!     Barked: Fri Jul 29, '11 5:02pm PST  If you find a way to make him stop, you'll have a multi million dollar invention! my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Hershey I'm sticking my- tongue out at- you!     Barked: Tue Jun 28, '11 11:52am PST  If spaying is done before full maturity, the hormones are not present to tell the growth plates to close on time and the dog WILL be taller with weaker bones and joints than if the hormones were present. This is not a might, but a will. Now, that doesn't mean the dog will suffer ill affects from it, but there is no way of knowing until after it is done. I would not have the dog spayed until an x-ray has confirmed the growth plates have closed. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]
