Huhhh... great. Just perfect.

Oh well now she is much healthier.Thats something to be glad about.

No effence but you dont really co-own her...
theres nothing saying you do, you dont pay anything towards her so what made her half yours?
You would of been her handler not her co-owner.

I co-own Rowdy.
I pay monthly for him but its still the ladys horse.
She sold Trigger and I had no say in it.
I didnt want him to go but its her horse and she dose what she wants and even though I actually paid half the board ect I didnt get to have a say in him leaving.

You have the other dog to show anyways.
Just be happy for that.

Ya it sucks your out a show dog but you learned alot and will be ready for the next one that comes. Maybe her mom decided she wasnt fit for the show ring or didnt want to put all that money into it because like you said you dont pay for anything and showing is expnsive as you should know.

Are you sure theres no other sport.
What about flyball?


EDIT: Also sounds like she has a smart mommy if there are male dogs running around not fixed. You dont want to add to the population of unwanted dogs right? And greater the risk of cancer .

I have to say yes, Lola was pretty, but to my appreciation not a "perfection" of breed standard, and by the way not a show prospect, not to offend but she wasn´t in my eyes..........

Other thing you always claimed you co-owned her and Diesel, but you have no legal papers or anything, it´s like if I said "yeah that´s my mom´s dog but I co-own him/her because I trin him/her". Co-own is a very different thing than training/playing/handling a dog.

this I took from a previous thread you posted I bolded some things YOU posted

Do you show dogs?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Do you show dogs? Yes
Are they your dogs? No
Are they your co-dogs? No
Do you just handle them (so they aren't your dog or your co-dog)? Yes, they are my friend's dogs'
What are their breeds? Diesel, Boxer and Lola, Rottweiler

Sorry to hear you got mad, it may seem they throwed your work away, but now she´ll be a better pet with what you taught her, despite not being in the show side.

Many here made very good points toward the issue here, but don´t get mad, life goes on and as Lola may not be a show dog you´ll find another eventually that will...........

Seriously, just calm it down. Why do you care if Lola is spayed? You can show speutered dogs in Juniors. The decision is up to the owners & the breeder, not you, even if you trained her. A 13 year-old doesn't co-own, or own, any dogs. Just because you're a handler doesn't mean you are entitled to ownership.

We a l l completely support altering dogs that are anything less than superb breed quality, and the owners either saw that she was not, or that they were not responsible enough to watch her 24/7 during her heats and prevent an unwanted pregnancy, and they're smart enough to admit it. That is really, really good news! Would you rather she ended up producing mixed breed litters with possibly dangerous temperaments, and increase her chances of getting pyo or mammary/uterus cancers?

Actually, to correct a misconception I've seen on this thread -- people under 18 can legally co-own a dog (I've never heard of the term "co-dog" before PT though). Many juniors "sign onto" (which is a legal documentation process of simply signing onto the dog's papers as an owner) dogs to show in junior showmanship.

And people under 18 can legally own a dog as well, but I don't think they can legally sign contracts, which is why most dogs are simply under the parents' names (breeder contracts usually need to be signed when the dog comes from a responsible breeder).
