Horrible dog attack!

[sammi]

I don't think either Gini or Jackie meant to sterotype Korens or anybody else or any breed of dog. I believe it was stated and meant in general statement such as - Americans like to throw their money away foolisly - well it just a statement about Americans that spend a lot of money ect. in what ever area this statement is made about.

Things have been said on this site by others about America in a degrading way. And even though this was said over a year ago it is remembered by Americans on this site that will stick up for their country and feel very hurt by those words.

And thats a poor joke if you think that Jackie is offensive to others. She say the most kind things to others on this board and has for the long time she has been a member here.

So you don't all need to try and be the all- mighty one here.

"My limited knowledge is that Koreans ignore our laws and do not license them, or give them the proper shots unless Animal Control follows through. "

That's why I raised the issue. It seemed poorly worded. I think anyone can see why it did not bode well with me. But I'm sure I'll be forced into some sort of deconstruction.

The few times I've seen JackieDaisy on here she has been rude to either me or someone online, which is why I made my statements, especially when she accused me of never having a nice word for anyone.

Stop it, everyone, RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!

This is Pet Talk.

Everyone is here because we hold one important thing in common - our love of pets. I am sorry this thread has gotten out of hand and feelings have been hurt. Let us stop, now, and begin to heal.

No one should stereotype peoples, nationalities or breeds here. No one here should "trash" another's beliefs. People should remember that we are all here because of our love of animals.

This thread started with an unfortunate event. We feel bad for the people and the pets involved. That said, I do not think anyone should ever post that they wish an animal would die, you can think it, but please, do not post that here without considering that anyone can read this forum, even owners of Jindos, Pit Bulls, Labradors, Siamesse cats, everyone, including children, can read this board. Be minful of that before you hit "Submit reply."

The reason we are here is because we are all passionate about our pets and those of others. Passionate people sometimes say things they may later regret. We need to stop, right now, and let everyone settle down on this matter.

DO NOT POST in this thread until you are absolutely sure what you are going to say is not hurtful. We don't need to "run anyone off," we do need to be kind to each other.

Please!

Please!

Go pet a pet. Be glad you and your animals are safe right now, I am glad. I worry about Miss Hoppy sometimes but we just did "raisin time" so she is happy, and safe.

A few days ago, the Dog of the Day's owner said "If everyone had a dog like Dakota, the world would be a better place!" Do you not feel that way about your pets? I know that bunnies would get a lot more respect from people if they all knew a bunny like Miss Hoppy!

Take a deep breath, and go give somebody a raisin, a biscuit, a tummy-rub ... whatever makes them happy!

OK thats it, I have had enough about the country fighting & who said what & so on. For crying out loud I live in CANADA, & a vast majorty of "people" think we live in iglues & travel by dog & eat raw fish & blubber, I have met alot of these people on the net & in person when I travel to a different "country" u don't see me freaking out, I love my Country too, but I really don't care what others think nor say, because I'm old enough to know what I like & not to fight. & if people around here can't get along I think we need to grow up a bit & think of how silly this fight really is. Fighting is wrong, did any wars really solve anything? come on were all people here, dissagreaments & different opinions happen, its natural, were only human, but were not ANIMALS! We have a brain so we can think of right & wrong & we all know FIGHTING is wrong. If people arn't going to grow up, then stop talking to eachother & stop fighting with eachother. My dad taught me that I'll always be picked on by bullies if I kept fighting back or yelling at them, but the second I acting as if they wern't there, they stoped. I grew up alot that day, & boy was my dad right. so I was us all to grow up & continue to enjoy chatting & bragging & having diff opinions & being friendly with each other.

p.s. almost forgot, we all have a very important tool & its called forgiveness.

[wolf_Q]

Jackie, when I first joined this board, you were probably the first person I met, and one of the nicest too. I really appreciate you, and I love your dogs. Please don't leave. I really don't think what Ann said was anything wrong, and I don't think Jackie is "offensive" at ALL! People are just very defensive of their countries, it is a part of them. PLEASE listen to Sammi and Karen!!

[Karen]

Gosh, see I thought only the Japanese ate sushi, you're saying Canadians do, too? Just kidding about the "raw fish" comment! My bosses LOVE sushi, my Dad calls it "bait." But I don't let them fight about it, either!

[Soledad]

I'm sorry this sort of tumbled into the mess that it is. I was quite annoyed, but it's over. Obviously, my point was completely lost...but there are more important things. Sorry to all involved, but I still stand by my comments.

[kingrattus]

Ya, I also have a dog team of 8, made up of pure breed huskies, oh wait!! how silly of me, huskies r hardly ever used as sled dogs anymore... now its husky + malmute + hound mutts... bet a lot of people didn't know that... & yes I did have a 1 dog team when I was 11-14, Max was my sled dog & when I was 16, my friends Rottweiler was our sled dog.. BUT I REALLY DON"T EAT RAW FISH, I hate fish!! hehehe

this is a fun conversation... hahahaha

Jess

[wolf_Q]

Lol Jess, yes a very nice conversation. I won't even get into what people think of me when I say where I live. From what I hear, the most popular "sled dogs" right now are Alaskan Huskies. Not really a "breed"....just a line of dogs bred for racing, that are very fast. I'm not quite sure why I was compelled to comment on this lol.

[kingrattus]

The alasken huskies ur the mixed breed I was talking about, its hard to imagin that there is hound in there, but the used hounds because they have long legs & fast legs. some of the dogs coats r so thin, they have to wear coats & booties... hehe.. just like my dog Max
Max is such a sissy
max is well trained & I taught him a command called teeth & open.
I tell max to bare his teeth & then open his mouth. I taught him this because hes such a friendly dog, he just looks silly baring his teeth
heres a photo of him

Jess
P.s.
I'm high in caffeen right now, so if I'm making little sence, just go with it... heheh

[Ferretor]

I have a neighbor next door who has a pit bull but it's really nice although I think he might want to eat my ferret I've petted him several times and he seems pretty nice

[Ann]

Why does such simple things always manage to escalate so much?

Before I forget, welcome to Pet Talk Ferretor, cute avatar you got there

jackiesdaisy1935, I don't wanna babble on and on and respond to everything you've said, so just let me say this... Ditto to everything that Soledad has been saying. I do want to respond to a few things so here goes:

Yes, you do have a name and it's Ann, wow you have been here 2 years, I've been here 67 years, probably a little more experience in living here than you do.

I NEVER EVER said I knew more about the USA than you did. All I did was respond to your accusation ("the member who has no knowledge about what she is talking about"). So all I said was that I do know what I talk about since I have lived in the USA for two years, I never acted like I knew more than you. Stop trying to twist my words please.


Something that I also found amusing was your statement that:

Originally posted by jackiesdaisy1935
We respect the countries that everyone comes from, I have never heard an American on here trash anyone's country and we have the intelligence and respect not to do something like that.

When you just a second later say:

Originally posted by jackiesdaisy1935
Why don't you grow up and talk about things that you know about like animals and leave our country out of it unless you have something nice to say for a change. I really don't care to respond to your posts as you are immature and silly.

Calling me "immature and silly" sure shows a loooooooot of intelligence and respect, doesn't it?


jackiesdaisy1935, I know you feel like you are a martyr and that I'm driving you away from Pet Talk, but please realize that I'm not. The last time you got upset at something I said (the angel thread if I remember correctly) you ALSO said you were leaving Pet Talk for good. So with that in mind, I'm pretty sure you'll stick around Just calm down and atleast try to respect that people can have other opinions than your own. And you know, I didn't even MENTIONED the USA in my original post, so all you are doing is digging up the past. Unecessary, wouldn't you agree?

Look... In the angel thread (where you posted a link to that one post I made a year ago and the link to my boyfriend's website and where you said my boyfriend makes you want to vomit) I posted a very long response to you. However, Karen deleted it because I used "inappropriate language" (I think it was the word that is commonly shorted BS if anyone's interested). I don't need your comments AGAIN. Ok? I'm holding in a lot of things right now since I don't want Karen to delete my post again, so just leave me and the past alone, ALRIGHT?! If you wanna go around and PM people the links and your comments again, then do so, but don't make me see it because it makes me see red.

[kingrattus]

u mean this whole fight is because of a year ago??
ok answer me this question,HOW OLD R U PEOPLE? !!
I will repeat myself GROW UP, let bygones be bygones & start acting like adults, not 5 year olds...

I hate fighting, I know I wasn't here last year & I don't really know anyone here, but so far from what I've been reading, this fight is really really stupid & should have never started.
I've heard theres something called private threads or something like that, so I sudjest from now on, if anyone has any beef with someone elst to USE THE PRIVATE THREAD THING, so people like myself & CHILDREN don't have to read the stupid fighting.

Jess

[sammi]

Ann, I said nothing about vomitng - no idea what you are talking about.

I am sorry if your past link upset you this much. Your boyfriend is a member here on this message board and you can get the direct link to his web site.

Don't read the messages then if they upset you - relax and play with your pet.

[NoahsMommy]

You guys! Karen said to stop...we need to respect that....I've learned that you can't express your opinions on here without being attacked...its sad...but that's how things seem to be now. Besides...I don't think what people do here all the time is express opinions, but tear down others. (I'm not directing this at anyone in peticular, I've been "attacked" for my opinions here too.)

Lets just drop it and discuss what this thread is about...the way some people DON'T take responsibility for thier dogs. That is terrible...especially when its the innocent who suffer.

Or....lets talk about the different types of sled dogs...that was quite interesting to me, being a native Californian myself.
