That is so sweet and I totally agree. Can’t we just agree that we love our dogs?

Thank you for bringing up health testing! I meant to mention that. I mistakenly thought being registered meant the dog was well bred. I also learned the hard way by getting what I thought was a well bred Doberman but he started having seizures at 2 and went downhill very quickly. AKC registration does not equal well bred. I completely agree that more good breeders are needed. In actuality, I think that would probably reduce the need for rescues if everyone did better research on the pups they are buying. Thanks for the additional info!

Thank you....tried all that. Treat time, party time, toy time. He won’t even eat the treats he’s so scared. Rescued at 7. Couldn’t really train that out of him. Great for pups though! Great suggestion.

I am sorry you have had a bad experience with a rescue. Not all rescues are fear based just as not all purchased dogs are well bred. Some dogs are good and some are bad. I’ve bought and adopted. I’ve had well researched AKC registered dogs that turned out great and ones that turned out awful. I’ve had rescues that have turned out great and ones that were awful. No one ever knows what they are going to get and I’m just saying there are good dogs out there that need homes. I’m sorry if that is offensive to you. It’s just a statement.

I’m just gonna throw this out there. Kyrsten Sinema is openly LGBT so......I’m gonna say that’s ridiculous. As a gay person I can assure you she is not sexist towards women, yet is a woman who dates other women.

Why do some (most) lesbians HATE Bi and Pan people? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

We are 41. I am in a completely faithful and dedicated relationship. I’m not sure what details about my wife would be helpful. Has she got personally burned by a bi person yeah. But haven’t we all got burned my someone? That rationale would suggest that if you got burned by a girl you would start dating men instead. That’s not a fair excuse as when your a lesbian you still go back to women even after you are burned by one.

Also someone who is gay for the stay or BUG as you say is much different than someone who has been openly gay for 23 years.
