He's pedigree, and one of the cutest things on four legs. While I proffer for people to adopt from a shelter, I understand the desire to have a pedigree dog. I like to tell myself that they come from responsible breeders. Responsible breeders are in charge of a very important job, and it's preserving the integrity of a breed.

Random Question: Is it okay for the government or private organization to mass breed dogs in a mill to use in their products and experiments? That is something allowed in the USA that I discovered working on a job. Not cool, do we really need breed dogs to a death sentence? People shit on china for eating dogs but the US is a little barbaric when it comes to dog culture, we just don't publicize (make a big deal about) how many dogs are put down or used in experiments every year. I mean, I'm sure China is worse but still.

jews. No it's not ok, kindness towards animals is the Aryan way, jews need to fuck off.

yeah, I agree. My Local Union (when I was in the apprenticeship) got a contract with a animal vaccination facility to expand on an old structure, and I learned that, for some ungodly reason, they need to boil vats of dogs blood (which smells like sin) for their recipe. Then I found out the blood is provided from dogs bred in a mill that our LU also has a contract with. Kinda made me pukey. We had to do work in the live building where they were boiling it and it's the type of smell that makes you wanna kill yourself. The niggers working there laughed at us white construction workers "oh you get used to the smell scrubs". No the fuck you don't

Why use puppies when you can use subsaharans? Oh yeah...dogs are closer to human

We have 2 dogs(young but not puppies anymore), we were considering adopting from a shelter but with grandchildren that's a big no no, there is always a risk with rescues, just this morning actually I met a friend who I hadn't seen for a few weeks, I noticed a scar on his wife's upper arm and mentioned it, sorry went that they were looking after a friend's rescue border collie, something triggered it, she ended up with about a 4inch had that had to be glued and he was bitten 3 times, obviously that dog was put down by it's owner. That re-enforces my point. If you have a dog from a pup then you know it's history, what is been through and train it how you want it to be.

I also once had a rescue(I've had dogs since a child, I'm 54 now), same kind of issues with that, it was my dog and my wife and children weren't allowed near me, it actually went for my wife one day as she came to sit by me, I put myself in the middle and have a big scary to prove it, after that he had to go. Broke my heart, we couldn't have given him a better life than he had but instincts take over. I'm waffling now but you get the point.

I do think dogs are treated badly, in sure those things you mention go on in every country.

I only buy from pet stores, and make sure they are mixed and puppies/kittens. Never had bad luck there, always had great companions.

Here in the UK, they banned pet shops from selling puppies (and I think kittens also) as they're were some very dodgy sellers selling sick puppies to the public. You can only get puppies from friends who have a dog that has pups, kennels, sanctuary or privately from any number of adverts, I think banning it actually made the whole thing worse.

I rescued a kitten recently where I came back to the car from the woods to hear a vehicle screech off at breakneck speed, thought nothing of it and opened the back to put our dogs in their compartments, next thing I hear is a frantic cry and meow and so I went to look at it was obviously very close, I found a 6week(at most) old kitten half way up a tree and had a good look around for any others or a mom, knocked on a local house to see if it was there's and it wasn't. We eventually surmised that the car we heard screeching off must have dumped the kitten in the tree or at the bottom of it. We picked it up, made some phone calls and took it to a shelter probably 5 miles away, initially I think they thought they we had dumped it until we rolled up with 2 dogs in the back and it became obvious that our account was true, sickens me what some people do to animals, fortunately we happened to be in the right place at the right time otherwise a fox or something else would have had it. People are sick.

One of my beagles came out of the woods near me, she's very skittish but an absolute sweetheart. I have another beagle that came from an abusive household, same story with him. Beagles aren't really known for being aggressive though. Your milage may vary.

I love beagles, beautiful hounds. Not enough of them here in the UK, sadly many of the ones I see are on leads because their owners are too scared to allow them off the lead because of their breed , their reputation precedes them lol.

Reactive and aggressive dogs arent without hope, with the proper training, discipline and understanding of an animal, you can at least make a dog safe to be around, though some might not enjoy being a family pet. it takes an educated experienced dog trainer for that kind of shit though, and you need the time to take them on a walk for at least half an hour every day for 60 days strait for the discipline to stick

My dogs have 3 hours exercise each and everyday, off lead for 95% of it. The rescue we had was also well exercised.

Rescue dogs really can't be trusted 100% around young children(I wouldn't ever trust any dog 100% around children), children can be little shits where dogs are concerned and a close eye has to be kept, I caught one of my grandchildren(3 ) pulling one of my dogs ears when she thought no one was watching, short sharp shock for her with a loud deep shout, made her shit herself basically (dog didn't react to her) but knows not to do it again. I've been around dogs and horses all my life and have a good understanding of both.

the 30 minutes isnt about excursive, its about an on leash training regiment that shelter dogs could use. For 60 days, its like doggy bootcamp where they are not left alone and they are not allowed to get out of line without receiving more training. During this time, they should not be at dog parks off leash. I'm thinking of a specific training program i heard from a professional dog trainer

If you have good dogs, offleash stuff is good, the more excursive and fun a dog has the better! I have two dogs, medium and large, and I always watch my kid around them since he can be obnoxious to them. I teach him all about good manners with dogs. I strait up tell him if he hurts or scares the dog they might bite him on the face and give him a big ouchy. I don't really see my dogs ever doing that but it's not impossible and its definitely a possibility with other peoples dogs. either way, good for kids to have good manners and respect all dogs' spaces.

Our puppy is a pedigree from a good breeder. We went with a puppy so that we can do all the training ourselves. Our cats are adopted in from shelters.

Hell yeah! Pounds don't always have puppies, and for families with kids it's important to know what you are working with

Yep mostly beagles are bred for scientific torture albeit any animal will do. There are some "humane/anticruelty/welfare" animal organizations that actually sell animals to research facilities. Always always check into whether your local shelter euthanizes and or works with research facilities.

"No kill" doesn't always mean "never kill". It can mean whatever they want it to mean. I've seen animals killed in hours of being turned into a shelter...sorry, off my soapbox.

Purebred vs rescue/mix? I grew up around dogs, professional breeder, show dogs. Depends on what you want or what fits your life.

The gubmint breeding animals for abuse? They pay for abortions. They pay for trans surgeries and hormones and shit. They pay for pedophilia and child trafficking. Give it time, we'll be eating cats and dogs like the bug people.

FYI: Did you know in the northern areas of India they eat dog and cat?

given that they work so hard to keep the streets dog free, I wouldnt doubt some places get good pay selling dogs for research. In CA they force you to get your dog fixed before you can get your dog back from the pound if they picked it up. In a way, fixed dogs are good, but its not great they force you nearly by law to do it. I bet their gibelottes sell for more than i think. Beagles are popular because they are large with short legs so they save on space when your breeding them in bulk and need to store the product for later (puke).

(edit to add) i wasnt aware of Indians eating dog and cat, but if they're also the people who don't eat cow that would make sense. I wouldnt say eating dog is a deal breaker if your family needs to survive, but I'm probably not going to be friends with people who eat breeds of animals that are meant to be pets.

As cute as the malformations/mutations are within animals, it sucks to see the health problems of them. The breeder problem is horrendous though. Munchkin cats, smooshy face cats or dogs that all end up with breathing problems, & White tigers to name a few. White tigers bothers me bc they are just Asian tigers with a pigment mutation caused by inbreeding and perpetrated by government subsidized zoos in order to say 'White tigers are rare so please donate to save them.ʼ

lol, yeah, I feel for those breeds bred to have health conditions. Pugs didnt used to look like that. Some breeds of dog have gone extinct, and thats good for some of them since their biology was not good for them. I cant remember the name of the breed but there used to be a dog breed bred to run in a wheel all day every day. The wheel would turn a spit of meat in the kitchen. When it's job became obsolete, it became extinct because it was frantic, stupid, and didnt know what to do with all its psycho energy. It was also, not a cute looking breed.

Lol... I forgot all about them and remember them looking like goofy corgies. Turn spit dogs iirc. Another thing that irks me is the breeders themselves want to control the market by charging an exorbitant price than only willing to sell it spayed or neutered.

Yeah dwarf cats is a really f*'d up human caused mutation. Sonsabitches. There for awhile people were making bank on congenital anomaly cats like that "Grumpy" cat and "lil Bub". Those poor little cats were hard core retards with all kinds of health problems, thank goodness they don't live long. The white tiger thing is just as bad. Those poor animals have all sorts of health problems and chromosomal abnormalities.

sheeeit.
