CANDIDATES FOR DOY/GDOY 2015

That is your right.





I am sure you do.





Still doesn't change the fact you/they didn't lift a finger to condition her to begin with.

Still doesn't change the fact she seemed to be a so-so dog in ability ... so why match her again?





Yeah?

And I could wallpaper a building with the vet reports I have shot down over the last 25 years ... from "licensed, practicing vets."

From at least 50 vets over the years, who said a dog "can't have babesia" in the US ... to a "licensed, practicing vet" who had a dog right in front of him, dying of kidney failure ... the lab results in front of his face ... and who STILL rejected my statement to the owner (over the phone 600 miles away) telling her THE DOG HAS EATEN ANTI-FREEZE ...

The "licensed, practicing vet" said, NO ... and when the woman came home, her boyfriend informed her, "Oh my god, I shook off some antifreeze I spilled on the floor mat right in front of her."

So you can disagree with what I say, and follow bookworm vets who know nothing about bulldogs, again that is your right.

But the very fact you (or whomever it was) DIDN'T EVEN TRY to save that bitch makes you/them UTTER PIECES OF SHIT ... for exactly the reasons I said above.

Frail boned yes! So so in ability not at all. And not trying to save her would have been leaving her where she was. Bringing her to a vet is trying to save her. You dont know the extent of her injuries the vet did. People who Bulldog know there are some that can't be saved. Free finished strong and got to do what she loved.

Point taken.

And not trying to save her would have been leaving her where she was. Bringing her to a vet is trying to save her.

Good distinction, and another point well taken.

You dont know the extent of her injuries the vet did.

True again.

But YOU don't know what would have happened had you tried

I personally would have tried as hard to save my bitch afterward, as she tried to win for me when I put her in that position

People who Bulldog know there are some that can't be saved.

People with intelligence know that you miss 100% of the shots you DON'T TAKE ...

People with heart and character are willing to try as hard as they possibly can ... for those who prove THEY will try as hard as they can too

Your "easy way out" decision may have been following "a vet's recommendations," but it's been my repeated and consistent experience that "vet opinions" aren't worth a whole lot, ultimately.

To me, this was way beyond "a vet" ... it was A MATTER OF PRINCIPLE: anything that tries THAT hard for me, I am trying THAT hard for it. Period. End of story.

That is just basic decency.

Also, correct me if I am wrong, but didn't you say in the beginning that your dog just "beat all the odds" by winning in the first place?

Yet you don't give her the chance TO LIVE afterward, by ignoring the vet, and doing EVERYTHING YOU COULD FOR HER ... as SHE did everything you could for you

Buddy, she just finished "ignoring all the odds" for you ... yet you cave in to the odds when it's your turn to reciprocate

That is just lame, plain and simple.

I can't sugar-coat my honest opinion.

I respect the way you're handling my statements, but I think YOU FAILED YOUR DOG when it counted

Free finished strong and got to do what she loved.

And you threw her away with both hands, without being willing to give her a chance "to beat all the odds again" ... where it counted.

Denial isn't rebuttal my friend, it is only denial
