Personal Rant - Asshats All Around Me

I was going to publish the aggressive dog post I've been working on (and re-writing multiple times), but unfortunately I am a bit too pissed off to post it. Sorry. It is coming, just not ready yet.

I got home last night from work to find that our Quad was stolen. Ok, I should have noticed it was gone yesterday morning when I got up, walked the foster dog and then went to work ... but come on!

Featured Rescue - Corrine the Chow

I was looking through Petfinder and was amazed at how many dogs are listed as a Chow Chow or a Chow mix ... There are 2,927 dogs listed ... and most don't even look like a Chow! Anyway, it took me a while to find one that fits the following descriptions:

1. doesn't have something wrong physically2. doesn't dislike other dogs3. doesn't dislike cats or kids4. does look like a chow

This is Corrine

Asshat Rant - Exercise? What's that?

I didn't have to go far through CL to find this one.

To the poster: Do you really expect me to take you seriously? You have, in 4 sentences or less, just confirmed many people's stereotypical opinions both about young parents and pittie owners.

Good grief. I wish I could reach out and smack this guy upside the head. What an Asshat.

First off, that is one killer run-on sentence. Perhaps you

Updates - Foster Dog

Well, it's Tuesday ... feels like Monday ... need I say more? Sorry I haven't posted for a few days, the computers at work have been down all week. Because of this, I haven't had much time to wander through CL or the news yet! Things are progressing over here, so I thought I'd post something a bit personal today.

The latest foster dog is learning so quickly I've had to slow her down (she's only

News Reel - Off-Leash Dogs

Hey Seattle! Stop letting your dogs off leash in areas they are supposed to be restrained. I hate to say it, but the world doesn't like dogs running at large. (Don't ask me why because I am not sailing on that boat.)

Here's the thing. It seems so innocent, right? Yes, you should be allowed to have your dogs off leash anywhere but according to the laws that govern our cities, you're not. Some

Featured Rescue - Millie the Rottweiler

I do love the big breeds. Make no mistake there. Rottis are one of my weaknesses ... my first foster was a rotti. A snarly little gal who would show her teeth at anyone who touched her (unless it was one of her handlers!). I ended up fostering her because I didn't want to see her put to sleep. She was the beginning.


So, I thought I'd post a Rottweiler today. I usually think through all the

Asshat Rant - Brokers

When I read posts like this it fills me with dread. I get a twist in my gut that says "Danger! Danger Will Robinson!" I don't see a helpful family taking in unwanted rescue puppies, I see an asshat snatching up puppies and then turning around and making a profit on it.

A broker.

These sorts of people take in cute little puppies and then play on other people's emotions by saying they would have
