Small Dogs

This I find interesting, considering finding this in a spree of detective work:

I'm rather curious as to what shows you and Diesel have been to recently? http://www.petoftheday.com/talk/show...ht=high+octane

What was the show called where you placed 2nd in the Working Group?

Oh, and High Octane *is* a sort of kennel name, according to the AKC. There are four dogs registered with that prefix... High Octane Diesel Douglas, High Octane Diesel Fuel, High Octane Unleaded, and one other whose name I cannot recall just offhand. I cannot find a single show result for any of these dogs, no matter how much digging I go through.

For someone who's already gotten a group two... I'm just curious -- where are the win pics? Why can't you continue to show Diesel rather than get a new puppy -- he seems to be RATHER successful.

Diesel is registered with the AKC.
I cannot find any record of his litter, which is highly uncommon, especially for a dog who has received a g2 placement.
I think it's just as bad for you, Briana, to jump to conclusions. She hasn't yet had a chance to answer all my questions. She may very well be Diesel's co-owner, and he may very well be a veteran show dog and the records are just very buried. There's only so much the internet can tell you, and I don't feel like wasting my time calling supers about someone with an inferiority complex on some Pet forum.

Iilo, and Brianna if you're interested in his questions (which you obviously are...), Diesel placed those places in a match. And I really don't know all that much about his litters. But as sure as heck with try and ask Doug as soon as possible.

I don't know what to believe anymore either.. and I'm done replying to any posts like these unless someone brings me into the topic.. I don't believe anything without proof, so whatev.

I agree with Briana. This is still fishy to me... . I'm not replying to this thread anymore unless I feel it's nessacary.

Hey, I'm trying to prove everything I can. I'm answering every question you ask with the total 100% truth. You want to go over something PM me.

Can you just tell the whole story? Start to finish, no BS? I'm so confused. What about that puppy? What about Mastiff10? What dogs are yours? Why are you looking into smaller dogs when you were going to get a boxer pup with your friend?

[Iilo]

Wow, I leave for like two seconds and y'all jump all over her..

All I was interested in was Diesel's show record.

Makayla, it does make a lot more sense that he placed that way in a match, thank you for clearing that one up.

"Diez" is a logical short form for Diesel, so I don't know why you guys got so riled up about that one. I post pictures of both "Ri" and "Rien" on other boards and no one jumps down my throat for lieing and such.

From the stacked pictures of Diesel, I don't think he'd be that successful if you showed him in AKC conformation (which I don't think you have yet?). If you really have your heart set on a show dog, you do have a lot of learning to do, but you should really start with the best you can possibly get, rather than with a dog like Diesel, who, if he isn't just from a BYB (I mean that in the least offensive way possible), is obviously not from a well known Boxer line.

A small dog would be a good place to start off... But I'm not a big fan of the internet for deciding on what breed to get when it comes down to a show dog. Do you have handling classes in your area? Go to those, see who has what breeds and who is willing to be a mentor. Go from there, fate will decide for you, as it is often known to do when you get into dogs.

[Tollers-n-Dobes]

I'm not going to get into any of the arguements, as I'm so sick of all the arguing/accusations that have been going on lately.

Makayla, I'm not quite sure how old you are, but have you ever considered going to handling classes and becoming a junior handler for a breeder? There are often breeders who are willing to take on a junior handler for their dogs...
