LOL that was the first thing I noticed as well. And this.

Which kind of scares me from Aussies cause I have heard the stubborn bit

BUT

Almost all of their dogs have a ton of titles in the rear end as opposed to only championships. Like rally, companion dog, canine good citizen, etc. So that leads me to believe they're pretty trainable and all the stuff I wanna do.

It's a lot of titles too, I feel like most breeders only maybe have a couple if any.

Although I do know you guys are joking and yes I thought it was hilarious too lol



Oh no, you're right, it's definitely expensive and I didn't mean to downplay it and "reasonable" is a relative word because even 1800 is still a ton of money. But I do think getting from a reputable breeder who health tests and/or does activities with them is definitely worth it. I did just look in rescue and there's a few but not many :/ also another issue I am having is finding standard breeders and not minis. Seems everyone is breeding minis and miniature American Shepherds now :/

I didn't realize there were tests for that sort of thing. I know of standard puppy temperament tests but are there others?

And it's mostly just a crazy want/pipe dream atm. I don't think I'm ready for a dog atm but maybe soon

Save your pennies and by the time you get the money, you might be ready for the dog. I can't joke too much about stubbornness, pugs are not known for their trainability after all!

Good morning everyone. I woke up with a sore throat just to add to this week. At least today is my last day before the 4-day weekend.

Hope you feel better soon
Did you catch it from Kiki?

By the way, how are you feeling @KikisGirls, did you find out what caused your sore throat?

No no no! I didn’t mean it that way, I just meant that them being older isn’t always the case. Their incubators make sense but still, as a breeder I personally wouldn’t sell eggs that were that old.

I wouldn't either.
I'm just mad because at a max I can keep 4 chicks. I almost want to lie and say none hatched so that I can keep more :/

Good morning all!
Can someone link that thread from yesterday with the poorly fed hen?

This is the one everyone was discussing last night.

I don’t blame you. I find it kind of ridiculous that they are having you hatch them and yet they knowing sold you older eggs and are expecting half back. Did you pay for all of the eggs? If you did then I don’t think you have to give any back as they’re technically your property then.

Thank you I caught it from my brother, he came down with it last week and it’s finally taken me down. Just have to power through!

Good morning guys!

My throat is better.
I am almost 90% sure my issues were from scream singing too much at the concert.

I hope it passes quick.
