Does it annoy anyone else when people advertise dogs as AKC and then describe a color not recgonized by AKC? For example AKC WHITE lab... Or AKC Silver Lab... The white is actually considered yellow, but the sellers want thier dogs to stand out so they say they have some "rare" color.
I just wanted to vent off about it. And since I'm griping... Why would people pay $2500 for a hybrid dog??? I can understand $500, in some rare cases $700, but lets me serious it is ultimately a mix breed. They are just as easy to love and easy to play with, but they aren't worth $2500.
I think that's all I feel like griping about... But who knows! |

 my gripe is that you are griping!! why?? gripe about the price of gas or the war in irag or the many many many people dealing with foreclosures..not..the color one uses to describe a dog!! i would imagine that the seller is advertising white as a way to better describe the color than just plain yellow. some people want the lightese yellow they can get and white is a great way to address this issue in the ad. so on and so forth. some people think that the more they spend, the better quality puppy they will be getting, this is soooo not true. the price is at the breeders disgression only and has absolutely nothing to do with the quality in most cases. i use the word buggy and you probably use cart. but we both know its the thing that we all roll around while food shopping. what difference does it make??? |

My appologies... I understood this was a Dog forum... Wasn't aware that it was a political forum. Why would you waste your time griping about my gripe? Seriously people like you are the reason that I'm leaving this site now. |

Recheck the spelling, then get your dictionary out and make yourself useful  if that's possible. |

You need to stop taking yourself and this board so seriously. Nothing I said means I am bitter. Me thinks you should get out your dictionary as well. It's okay in your book though, for Moggie to give the duh emoticon 50 times over! What I said was straight on..deal with it. Seems you regret giving up your mod duties as you still think you are one.  maybe it's not too late to reapply. |

wow it's worse than I though, I don't see where being so hard on a kid is a good thing but hey to each their own. Last I checked it took years for adults to know as much as they do, and even though schools push hard they still can not be expect to speak or spell as well as adults, not to mention who knows if English is this persons first language.
As far as the mod, I gave it because I did not have enough time to devote to the duties of being a mod as I felt I should, any job to me is worth doing right, and if you can't then you shouldn't do it. |

Wow it's worse than you thought?? You say you didn't peg me as that type of person, and say you guess you're a fool AGAIN. Pretty strong words against me and passive agressive when all I did is tell 'em to use their brain, get a dictionary out and make themselves useful.
It's called being SNARKY if you need to define it. I didn't know I needed your approval before I can post. |

I have a right to voice my opinion, and it is that you have become more bitter since you first came here, just a personal observation, that you are reinforcing.
Be well |

JC I have seen you call at least 7 people bitter. I'm not bitter, it's called being snarky. I got edited for calling someone a simpleton within my first 50 posts now get off it already. |

Im not on it to get off it, because Im not really on it, you have a problem with my observation of you, I dont have a problem with you, your grown and able to be how you want to be and its not my place to try to change that, be nice to have a bit of the old you back but hey theres allot of things that would be nice.
As far as bitter, there are several bitter people here, but if we where all happy bubbles how much interest would there be in what one has to say. |

PerfectPom, T.M.I. To much information. Sorry if I sound like a nag or that I am being rude but to be completely honest with you nobody wants to know that you are going through peri menopausal. |
