Wow, second at Crufts, that is one heck of an accomplishment! And agility and conformation is really amazing too. not something you see very often. That takes one heck of a dog.

I have him blocked so I don't normally see his postings... :-)

I guess you learn something every day, didn't even know Skips came in cream color, I've only seen black. My dad had some Skips before he passed away. I worked with them for about a year, and he finally sold them. I always thought they were pretty little dogs, but wound too tight for my tastes. I like a dog that will occasionally stop moving, and actually listen to me. I'm sure training one would be quite a challange.

Yes they need a lot of training. My wife takes most of the credit - she is the secretary of a local dog club and the dogs are at training 3 nights each week, plus competitions at the weekends..

hahaha i wasn't having a bad day. it's how i feel. just loike how i felt it was wrong promoting your own agenda in a dog training thread. i can have my opinions even if other people do agree. like i said before in the past. i am pro animal rights and the treatment of animals, but i am no activist because the activists see only one side of things. just like you see only one side when your business is to raise dogs. i am in the middle seeing both sides.

while bikerman is promoting his arguements against religions and making people who believe in any religion an idiot, his wife is prepping their dogs to win awards for the sake of getting their own selves recognized. that's all dog shows are. they are also about the mighty $ and breeding. they don't benefit the dog in any way, shape or form. they only benefit the selfish owners. and yes....it's the same when mothers spend so much time prepping their duaghters for beauty pageants. the only difference is that dogs don't know the difference between winning and losing and the little girl who is being set up for failure, DOES.

and personally, i really don't need to hear about people taking second in a dog show when this thread is about dog training. i was a dog trainer for many years including training for the film industry so this thread interested me. bikerman was the only one who gave some real good advice until he started talking about dog shows which had nothing to do with dog training. although winning agility shows does have to do with dog training, he did not incorporate that in his posts. you know why? self promotion. and it just proves my original point about owners forcing their dogs to compete and the selfishness behind it.

oh yea, and bikerman does have me on ignore haha! i thought it was so hilarious when he is one who says he is strict in promoting free speech. he is a hypocrite. he put me on ignore because i don't agree with half the stuff he says in this forum. i really do think it's funny. he just wants everyone to conform to him without an arguement or he will put people on ignore

Max and maddie looks beautiful. Oh we rarely get to see such type of dogs here in india. We do have some contests once in year and get to see sometimes but not all type of breeds. Dalmatian was rare to spot here till 1999 and after that movie there was huge import and breeding for these types. Now it's not rare anymore we get to see them often.
