We're in trouble...

In Jasper if you don't pick up the dog poop after 3 warnings that comes with a nice fine, the dog is taken away to the pound. If the dog is sent to the pound more then 3 times for the poop issue, then you cannot get him back.

I reckon there'd be a fair few dogs in shelters if that law was imposed in Lancashire. I can kind of see the sense in it, it's an owner's responsibility and the environment must be clean, but taking away the dog? That seems a bit harsh to me.

Makayla , April, and I are not trying to say we dont like buddy.What happend was scary, so it was the worst time for him to be running off.As for the training Makayla is just trying to get him to luv and trust people again wich is hard becuase he was abused.Makayla is focusing on geting him to trust her before she can reach ferther training.He is getting the training he should of got a long time ago from his ariginal owner. We are training him very hard but he needs to gain trust before Makayla can get really. hard training .

Thank you Sarah! That was very well said.

What do you mean 'aww, poor Buddy'? I've had him... for... a year or so.

[luvofallhorses]

I meant about him being abused before you got him..

[zoomer]

Oh. Sorry, I get steamed easily I need to learn to get off that! Yes. He was badly abused... BADLY

[luvofallhorses]

it's okay. I hate when people hurt animals!!

[zoomer]

Don't you! The owner was always drunk and never went out of his house, and if he did he was in his boxers with no shirt And he'd throw beer bottles at him while he was tied to a tree. That's when April came in...

Oh. Sorry, I get steamed easily I need to learn to get off that!

Yes, you do. ASAP. I was like that when I first arrived here and boy.. did some people hate my guts! (And some possibly still do.. lol)

But yeah.. this is just the internet... (I'm not taking sides but) If something ticks you off that someone on here says, IGNORE them. Be the bigger person. Don't reply to their comment. I know it's tough, we're all dog lovers here and I think a lot of animal lovers are "moody" in a sense.. just because we're so sensitive and have real, caring hearts!

Even if they say something about you and Buddy, ignore them if it bothers you. YOU know the truth, YOU know how you feel inside, they don't.

That is why i get so upset because these dogs get abused so badly some people think about $$$$$ signs when it comes too pitbulls i have seen shows were they put them in fighting rings and actually enjoy it it really is sick!!
