Congrats!!!!!! I never had any kids and I think those who do (and do a good job raising them) are simply awesome. Toughest job in the world when done right.
Hey you guys, did you see the huge F-up Pasado's did this AM? (As usual! I have a long history with these idiots and believe me they are NO GOOD!)
Evidently someone (and animal expert, mind you) has never seen hunter dumps. So they see what is evidently three dead skinned coyotes on the side of the road (I DO HATE hunters that dump dead animals out in public like that). Anyway, I woke up to BREAKING NEWS on KOMO about "three hideously disfigured dogs DISPLAYED on the side of a road" by some "obvious sick individual". SO PAsado's goes off half cocked,as usual, and grabs this "evidence of a crime" while bleating they will pay $5000 to anyone who can help them solve "the crime" that they, by the way, just ruined the site of for investigation by REAL officers. Get all the little old ladies hysterial and reaching for their check books to make a donation....
Then the sheriff comes on the radio and says "these are more likely than not coyotes which have been skinned, as hunters do cut the head and feet off them to skin them". Last I heard Pasado would not return phone calls and wouldn't hand over the "evidence" to the sheriffs....
This is what is so sad: the so called "experts" these days are young kids, clueless, and running off at the mouth about these sick things they imagine, and I think we will be darn LUCKY to get off without some teenage kid seeing HOW MUCH ATTENTION THIS GOT and doing a "copycat" thing with REAL domestic animals.... So much of the crap humane societies say become self fulfilling prophecies when dumb kids read their stuff.
How do I know? Over 20 years as a professional animal control officer, also consultant to animal control in five countries. As well, myself and two others worked very hard to save 50 dogs that Pasado dumped on a hoarder (who was promptly busted for animal abuse and shut down when we got authorities there) in Arkansas during the "Katrina" debacle, because they wanted to get their pictures in the papers with their PASADA t-shirts on, but h um, didn't want to have to deal with the not-so-cute and adoptable dogs they "saved". They left 50 dgos sitting in the rain in wire cages at this gross facility with over 300 dogs on it (no running water) and 2 people....
Anyway, I'm sorry to rant, but NOTHING T's me off like "animal lovers" who aren't.
OMG BOLDOG!! that was one of my many hates about pasado's!!!! the pictures of those dogs left in a darn field in wire crates with no water in the rain and then hot sun!! they were mostly pits! and yet they still tout how they saved the katrina dogs!!!!
Their "haven" is around the corner from me and the fraud that has been going on over there is assinine. the Everett Herald ran some really good stories about why the founders divorced etc. She was using the funds to build herself a big mansion and live the high life and he was tired of it. they recently got new directors and I think the property is no longer in her name and she is gone. The vets have been fighting with them to start euth'n animals as they are suffering far beyond what is reasonable. sad sad sad
I have a pit mix that gets along with 5 yorkies (some of which are dominant females) and a bulldog/JR mix, but does not get along with one female dog.. We found her dumped at a public park after the big boat races here 1 year ago. We've been trying to find her a home ever since. She's a very nice girl but high energy, loves to fetch and play ball, adores her playmates (especially Panzer, a male bulldog mix) but due to breed bans in our area and ignorant people, we've been unable to find her a good match.
If any of you know of someone looking for a high energy young dog (the vet thinks she is great dane/pit mix) let me know. I love this girl and she is very pretty/muscular, but she doesn't get along with Panzer's sister and we've been acting as a 'foster' for about 10 months without any good homes. She wouldn't be ideal around small kids due to her high energy and exuberance, and needs more work around poultry (although she listens when you say 'leave it')... but she is very sweet and loves her people. She adores soccer balls, tennis balls, and cuddling while watching a flick, she loves walks in the park and hiking,... she dislikes rolled up newpapers and yelling. We actually had her come up to us around midnight when we were leaving a sportsbar late last summer. We were told she had been coming to get water for about a week,but would never eat. S he's up on shots and worming.
Her name is Jackson (after the sports bar she was found outside of) and she no longer looks like the walking skeleton she was when we found her. She's a doll and I wish, so badly, that we could keep her.
