  1. I like the interrogation theory. 8) I have a beautiful breed/show bitch. People ask me when I'm going to breed her. I just tell them once she gets a CH in front of her name, I'm going to find a male with a CH in front of his name and a ROM behind his and his parents name. You could just politely respond I will only breed ROM's. :lol: :angel:
  2. Well the time debated question? :hmmmm: Dog lover or Cat lover? I guess I would have to say that I am an [b]Animal Lover[/b]. I love :iloveyou: all animals, although for most of my life I enjoyed the company of cats :kociak: over the company of dogs :dog: but that was befor my heart was stolen by a Ridgeback. And she did steal my heart at a tender age of three weeks old. :angel:
  3. :-? Well I'm not wild about terrorizing an animal into thinking "OH NO, If I don't mind a brick or chains will fall out of the sky and hit me and hurt me" :dog: Now I have one of the hardest breeds in the world when it comes to doing a recall. I have all hounds, Ridgebacks to be exact. When I call my bitch she stops, turns around looks at me, literally sticks her nose in the air and turns to go away. All I did to break this is teach her that I better not have to come to her or she will get in trouble :nono: and my discipline is the same her dog mommy would give, grab her skin by the neck and pat her bottom towards the direction I want her to go. When we get there she has to either be put on her tie, (maybe 5 minutes) or go in her crate. I don't beat my babies, but I do use firm tones in my voice and when they respond immediately they get a dog cookie. It's almost gotten to where I could use cookie as my recall word.

    Pet Store Story

    Hello aramsey, I am so sorry :cry: to hear about your new baby. I too had a bad experience with a Pet Store. It was about 10 years ago and I had to have this kitten. I had a guarantee and a free vet visit :lol: . I waited until the last day to use the vet visit and when I went in the vet asked why I didn't bring the kitty in as soon I got her. He had been treating the whole litter for dystemper. I had a fit and a fight :agrue: with the store manager over my refund; :o he wanted the cat back. I eventually had to stand in the middle of the store (mall store) and scream as loud as I could about how he knew the cat was sick and didn't tell me. I got my refund and he paid for my prescriptions and I got to keep the cat.
  5. :D Thanks for inviting me. An RR is a Rhodesian Ridgeback, I will add pics of my babies as soon as I can. I have two RR's an IG (Italian Greyhound) and two house lions (domestic cats). They all get along great, but an IG is not really a bred for children to play with as they are fragile and can be snappy. I won't let any children under 6 or 7 play with mine. Now RR's are breed to be family companions as well as protectors. They are very good at distinguising between false and real danger, and very loyal, especially for a hound. They do however have a very strong prey drive. Hope that helps K. :P
