Thread: Do you love dogs?

Put it on a sticker and you might

Nah, I hate dogs, they leave fur all over the house, sit on your head when they want breakfast, sit beside you when you're watching TV, try to give you a kiss when you're sad, make you laugh when they're being nutty.

Did I say I hate dogs? I meant to say I wouldn't be without one, or two, or three or four. With pugs you can't stop at one!

But then i'm recovering from an allergic reaction to a friend's cat at the moment.

Fixed (well as PC as I could make it)

Absolutely.. We only have the 2 Pugs though (at the moment) and our beautiful Greyhound - all rescues as well. We have had 2 rescued Greyhounds from GAP (Greyhound Adoption Program) - they make awesome family pets, and are a misunderstood breed. They are gentle and loving (If you're not small, white and fluffy)...

Pugs are still the best though - couldn't imaging life without at least 2 of the little sneezing, snuffling, fur shedding, snoring little fur bags sharing our home.

There is a lot of nice posts about pet dogs in this thread but not many expressing their views if they are happy with sacrificing 17000 dogs to maintain the gambling pleasure for few.

Come on guys! give us your opinion, is money, greed and gambling justify this barbarian animal treatment or an implementation of some kind of control if not ban the dog racing is needed?

Back to the OP topic

I think it is disgraceful,but probably not a lot can be done about it.Pretty hard to stop gambling and a whole industry overnight.Sure,things can probably be done better,maybe the regulaters need to step in.

Mate of mine has Greyhounds,and thats just what they do

Sure,rehoming would be good,but there are way to many dogs around that need rehoming,even if there were no greyhounds around as well.

When i was an apprentice,i remember working on the cold/freezer rooms at Vet .Sciences at the Qld Uni.The rooms were full of greyhounds,so some do go to a better cause than being wasted.
