I'm just wondering whats your thought on chaining a dog?

[pomtzu]

Thank you LH for your posts. I agree 100+%.

I said I wasn't going to publically post in response to any other post here, and in keeping with that, I sent a PM to one of the OP's friends, explaining in a rational manner, why I, and a lot of others, see him as confrontational. I shouldn't have wasted my time and energy, because in the end, I was told that I was rude and bashing the OP. I still have the PM's, and would be glad to forward them to anyone who might want to view the conversation, then you can tell me if I was rude and a basher.

This OP started out looking for issues in his Introduction. He admittedly "opened a can of worms", and when no one took the bait, he started this tread with the same intention. Not a lot of folks read Intros - thus the lack of response - IMO of course. So he starts a new thread (same subject) here - makes it a one sentence post ending with "so what's the big problem?" HUH????? Nobody had a chance to even say if it was a problem, since he chose to make it one on his own, and in only one sentence. Is it any wonder that people view him as confrontational? If someone says to me "so what's the big problem?", or "have you got a problem with that?", and the like, then I know "words" will probably follow.

I have nothing against the OP, his dogs, his friends, etc. Perhaps if he would change his approach and soften up just a little, people might see him in a different light. I'm not saying to be sweet and syrupy, but tone it down a notch or two. Again - this is my opinion for what it's worth.

and do you think Karen will appreciate any of that? Ridiculous. Love the pink coat, Marty!

How about you come and spend the day with us and see what we do all day long I'm in Ga and thats not to far away

I would absolutely LOVE to do that!

[pomtzu]

That is some creepy ish. Are you a mod or something?

If everyone had thoroughly read LH's posts, they just might have gotten a clue!

Alright, after reading all of the pages on the forum threads Marty posted... I have come to the conclusion that...

Yes, he does answer vaguely to annoy people and then they start fighting with EACH OTHER and it blows up into big fights. Apparently, they talk about dog fighting on his forum. They also laugh about getting everyone on other forum websites to fight...

I gave the benefit of the doubt that you guys were really trying to educate people about pitbulls, but seeing two forums blow up over pitbulls because of something ONE person... the SAME person, wrote and how he writes it...

someone's up to no good.

Oh, and also the fact that he doesn't answer questions... how can you educate if you don't open up and share your information... ??? We are open to learning... believe me... but if someone isn't sharing the information that is needed to learn... how do we learn? I usually have a whole text book of information in my classes that I learn from. And powerpoints. And I ask questions, and they get answered.

And Blue, why are you standing for this guy when you kept telling him that he had a stick somewhere in one of his body cavities on the other website???? (Not trying to argue here, but I'm just asking because I want to know if he posted somewhere else and it made more sense or not)

So, I'm going to try and rephrase a question I have from Anna's post... and one you never answered on the forum thread you posted...

My previous dalmatian had excellent definition in her hind quarters... they have very strong legs, hence why they can run for miles. She acquired these amazing muscles (because she didn't have them when I had her) by running her with me on my bike every day for a very long time.

Yes, genetics has something to do with it... but...

I know that you cannot get a dog that looks like that from genetics. How, exactly, do you get your dogs in amazing shape for showing them?

So why did you delete what you originally posted?

I didn't want to add fuel to the fire Pomp. I lost my temper and what I said wasn't worth the time it took to type to be honest with you. It's not my style to contribute to these kinds of posts, but i listened to my inner bad side lol. If anyone has any questions on APBTs or Am Bullies in general, we can start another thread.

lol I really don't care WHAT it looks like with this cooold weather, even if it's made out of straw I'm gonna keep my feet warm!

[MonicanHonda]

Lol, TRUUEEE. It is quite chilly here. So much in fact that I don't have my deep freezer yet, and don't have room, so Delta's whole chicken is kept frozen on my balcony. HAHAHA!

Good lord that is coooold! We think we're freezing to death here in Florida... we're comparing this week to the longest cold streek ever lmfao and we're only getting to the mid twenties at night.

Thank you. I appreciate your honesty. I believe that I speak for a lot of folks here when I say we don't like to argue over petty crap. I think all that anyone is asking for, is an attitude more conducive to promote a friendlier atmosphere among posters, whether they be new to the forum, or have been around for a while.

FLORIDA!!! haha Sometimes I wish I was there. *sigh* only in a dream. Hahaha But I will do without the creepy bugs and REAAAALLY hot summers.
