    This makes me mad.

    I was browsing the local on-line classifieds like I always do, and someone is offering puppies up as the "prize" for a raffle. From the way I have seen a lot of people take care of their animals in this area, I would never do something like that..
    What if the person that wins is completely imcompetent to even own an animal??

    Great danes are not a dog you just want to get on a whim.... The poor thing will probably be taken to the shelter once the person gets "tired" of it.

    I just couldn't believe I was actually reading it right when I saw that what they were offering as the "prize".

    Here is the ad.

    That's terrible . I dunno what to say in an email, and when I get mad my feelings sometimes get out of hand.

    Yeah, they'll be able to see your e-mail address. If you don't want to hear what they have to say just block them from your e-mail.

    I sent my e-mail and sent the link to all of my friends to send e-mails too.

    I'm certain of it. Everything posted on this site can be traced.

    Take time out and think of what you will say. Keep calm when sending an e-mail when you are irritated. , confused, concerned.

    You might be wondering, Is this raffle in the same catagory with "Pit Bull" dog fights? Get where I am coming from?

    Find out, from this organization, what their objective really is. Money? Attracting people who love Great Danes and Dash-Hounds, ?? What is the pay off for THEM??? and for the dogs!!!! If they don't respond,
    Does this Organization stand on sound principles. ?
    What a mysterious Ad indeed.
