When you are dealing with any large group of people, there will be lots of differing opinions, and no matter of argument will change people's minds. So, please keep the cute pictures of you and your beloved dogs coming because that is why I love pet talk and why I came on in the first place!! We are all dog lovers so please continue to take those wonderful pictures of your sweet dogs!!!!
Hmm I understand where you're coming from, but you have to understand where others are coming from too.

If a byb of maltipoos came here and showed pictures of their new litters, are we only allowed to say aww cute pups, or educate them on their breeding practices as well?

Or how about informing others on why dressing up a dog or chaining up a dog isn't all as abusive what some people claim to say. Of course we're talking about people who love their animals, not neglect them in a yard 24/7 or in a purse 24/7 and never walked.

Many of us deal with many stereotypes on different ways of dog ownership or breedism (all small dogs are yappy, all pit bulls are baby eaters, ect) and would like to put an end to some of those myths. Thats what these forums are for, education.
