Dog Park meeting #2!!!

The dog park is a great place.

Its is the new social place for people. People without dogs come to them to see the dogs.
 
Watching the dogs play with each ohter is just so cool.

My dog has her special friends and knows them by name.

I love helping people teach their dogs how to get along with others.
 
dog parks are one of the few things I miss about Houston. Nawlins doesn't have em.
Desh is right they are way cool.
Dogs are way nicer too each other than I would have guessed, like little kids on a playgroud. Owners all chat with each other.

Desh the Lieberman Conservative is applauding the wasteful spending on dog parks....

Is Desh really a Republican? Seems like it to me.

There are limits to teaching your dog to be submissive. People who cannot handle big aggressive dogs should not have them. Dogs are not toys or children and there is often little respect for their nature in America.

Americans ruin any breed of dog that gets popular here, thus German Shepards are no longer the dog they were or the dogs that are in europe and Germany. The same is true of boxers, dobermans, collies, rottweilers, and basicaclly every popular breed of dog in America.

When I'm approached about my bouvier, which is like everyday, I'm quick to point out that these are not dogs for everybody and the last thing I want to see is bouvs getting popular in the US. It will ruin the breed here.

I recently bought a black russian terrier pup and I hesitate to even tell people about the dog .. that's how badly I think of Americans and dogs.

I sometimes take my dogs to one of the dog parks here, but at the first sign of aggressive behavior between my bouv and another dog, I simply move my dog and do not scold him for his instinct to protect himself or for him being a large male dog. Bouviers are herders and he will try to herd dogs that a running around. That's his instinct and I protect it.

He is a very social dog and even small children run up to and sometimes over him. They grab his beard and many children, often no taller than he is, have walked right up to his face and stared right at him. I have no concern for the safety of those children knowing that Tupac will never hurt them.

I've shown my bouv in AKC confirmation twice and he took a 1st and a 2nd in his breed and was once 3rd in the group. But I don't relly care that much about confirmation and don't want to dampen his aggressive spirit and nature as I see in many lifeless almost zombified confirmation dogs.

one problem with dog parks is the potential of illness transfer. you dog should be required to get vaccinations before allowed to go.

im going to raise the money through fundraising. the only cost would be maintenance like trash removal.
 
I only rescue.

I never buy a dog from anyone for any reason.

The Breeds mean nothing to me. I pick a dog which suits me( and sometimes they pick me).

I have an austrailian shepard right now and she is a wonderful dog. If I decide to do another Aussie it will be a rescue only from a kill shelter.

Any dog can be agressive and they need to be submissive to me no matter how big they are. If I tell my dog NOT to get agressive it better damn well do what I say. You dont have to hurt them all you do is make them submitt to you. I like laying them down like Ceaser shows. It works great and is completely harmless to them.

You not caring about breeds explains your not being concerned for the natural instincts of the dog .. which is fine, but that's not me.

I hope you didn't get the impression that my dogs don't do what I say or are aggressive towards me. That's not what I'm talking about. In fact, I usually put a CDX on my dogs. All of my dogs get personal protection training, which requires a social, yet aggressive when called for dog.

Ceasar's shows are midly entertaining but are for people who don't know how to handle dogs.Those who don't want or can't handle aggressive dogs should stick to poodles.

I have found Poodles to be aggressive.. two large poodles attacked my boxer a couple years ago when on an off leash walk in the woods.
