    Tim,

    Yes, please, rehome this dog. As soon as possible. You are absolutely right ... you are not the right home for this dog. If you PM me, I will make the arrangements with a boxer rescue for you, and they will come pick the dog up. I only need your permission.

    That is the very best thing you could do for this dog ... let her go to people who know, love and understand the breed. They are very devoted to the breed, and probably have a waiting list of pre-approved homes. Please do the right thing, you became responsible for this innocent life when you bought her. Please do what's best for her now, without regard to money.

    And PLEASE think very long and hard before getting another dog at this stage in your and your children's lives.
    "We give dogs the time we can spare, the space we can spare and the love we can spare. And in return, dogs give us their all. It's the best deal man has ever made" - M. Facklam

    "We are raised to honor all the wrong explorers and discoverers - thieves planting flags, murderers carrying crosses. Let us at last praise the colonizers of dreams."- P.S. Beagle

    "All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king." - J.R.R. Tolkien

    This upsets me,My thinking is when you get an animal,You are with that animal until they pass.

    Hyper,I have a 100 pound Newf that runs through my home,And have small children all the time,But it is almost like she knows when it comes to children.

    You say Daisy is Hyper,Well whether not there is training classes,You look and find one!

    You would not think a Newfoundland would need obedience Training,But every Newf Breeder will tell you "THEY NEED TRAING"

    I am so mad right now i could spit,This little Girl does not deserve this,And Frankly you do not deserve her,She is Beautiful.Please take others advice,And get her to a rescue.

    This way she will be rehomed with someone who will lover her like she should be.

    Best Of Luck Daisy!!!

    I agree that rehoming Daisy would be in her interest.

    Keeping your children and your pup seperated aren't going to do anything about their "fears" (so to speak?), though.

    Dunno if any one's noticed ... but Mr. Lewis hasn't squeezed a word in here since 8:32 AM - Saturday Morning.

    We might have misplaced the Audience.

    Maybe take a few DEEP Breaths or a chill pill; and let him slip a word or two in here.

    He got the dog for protection. She obviously isn't doing her job because she has no family to protect. Everyone on PT's dogs would protect them cause they are all loved and have a family a REAL family. And since he has no time to train her to protect like a actual guard dog she just isn't doing what he bought her for. I'm not saying he is for sure but I agree it obviously sounds like she is going to be bred. Please dont ever get another dog in your life and lets hope your kids grow up and have a better understanding of dogs and dont make the same mistake you have..

    As far as not being here it was surely not because of what any of u said i have been sleeping. I dont need the money i make plenty of money in the coal mines, im sorry but to me a dog is still just a dog. i will miss Daisy very much if i do decide to sell her to my b i l. As far as her not getting attention you dont really know that she does get attention she isnt in a small cage 24\7. i get her out and take her on walks and play with her and i do love her, and as far as my kids they are way more important than any dog. the only way i would let her go is to my brother in law because i know he will take good care of her as he does his and if he wants to breed her that will be up to him. But honestly i could care less about the $600 i am getting for her that doesnt matter to me, but he will be the only person to get her i can tell u that. The reason i posted this is to see if any of you knew a way i could train her with what limited time i have, and its not a cop out its just the way it is.

    Tim i am very sorry for ever sticking up for you! I am also deeply sorry for your dog! this is utterly ridiculous, aparently you join PT because you loved her, and all your showing now is discusting to me.
    Why on earth would you purposely add to the millions of dogs that are in shelters every year when its SIMPLE to spend a few more bucks on her to fix it. You aparently dont care for her like you say you do otherwise you would never give her to someone who you know prospectively would breed her.
    Im sorry if i get yelled at for this or banned or whatever, but you make a sorry excuse for a dog owner, and i deeply feel you make a sorry excuse for a human as well!
    Because of people like you gives the rest of us a harder time to do things with our pets or move places with them ect,
    if you have so much damn time to walk her, im pretty sure you can find time to train her.
    You discust me!
    (again i really dont care how much trouble i get in from anyone here when i say these things)

    Ok, so, you walk her, you play with her and you love her.... Training has to fit in somewhere. What would another 15 minutes out of your day to do some basic training hurt????

    Just a dog???? There's the problem

    I knew when I saw the title of this thread it was a mistake coming in here.

    Guess you got the attention you wanted. Get Daisy to a rescue and it would probably be a good idea if you never got a dog again. You don't deserve to own one.

    Well, if she goes to your brother in law, I'd be willing to bet money that he'll breed her. Real nice life to give a dog. And if you think "dogs are just dogs" then do the poor dogs (or any animal, for that matter) a HUGE favor and don't ever get any more animals. If your kids are so important to you, why did you even get a dog in the first place? You're teaching your kids that animals are disposable, like pieces of property, and they aren't. How about teaching your kids about love and responsibility? And if you want protection, be a man and go about it yourself. Honestly, I don't even know why you came back if you don't want to listen to us. Poor dog. I really feel badly for her. She doesn't deserve what you've done to her or her doomed future.

    I did the right thing by setting you free
    But the pain is very deep.
    If only I could turn back time, forever, you I'd keep.
    I miss you


    I hear you whimper in your sleep
    I gently pet you and say, no bad dreams
    It will be alright, to my dog as dark as night.

    Fur as dark as the night.
    Join me on this flight.
    Paws of love that follow me.
    In my heart you'll forever be.
    [/SIZE]



    How I wish I could hold you near.
    Turn back time to make it so.
    Hug you close and never let go.
