Old people are dangerous animals, look at how many people are attacked by them every year. We don’t need them. Try telling the parents of child that was attacked and killed by a pack of octogenarians that these people are not evil mean spirited beasts that are one second from snapping. ---

**Jonathan** - My bad. I was _not_ including those who engage in breed rescue in my previous post. People who rescue dogs are good in my book. 🙂 ---

Let’s cut to the chase, BZ2TheXtreme… You’re a very shocking young man. Your borderline genocidal ideas make us all sweaty with nausea at the thought of your individuality. Your name is forever in the annals of BIG IDEAS that MAKE ONE THINK However: No one is listening You are dumb. Thank you. ---

If a dog ran around the earth at faster-than-light speed, would he go back in time? Cause then if he made a mess on my floor, I could send him back to a time before that and then I could take him for a walk instead. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by UncleBill \* > \*\ ***jackelope** , I generally am a “large dog” person, but your pooch is one of the cool smaller dogs, and is one of the few smaller breeds I would choose to live with. Nice photo. \*\* Thanks **UncleBill** ; I’m a big-dog lover too. The picture doesn’t show it well, but she’s about 70 lbs. of fang and love. If anyone’s interested, she’s a [Carolina Dog](http://www.carolinadogs.com). Or I think she is; hard to say with an “open breed” like that. ---

She listens when I talk, and answers She always wants to take a walk with me She like to “take a drive” in the car for no reason She is pretty She is nicer to me than my exhusband was–even though she costs a fortune in vet bills, food, treats, and toys. I would rather pick up her poop than pick up his socks! He spews crap from his mouth just like you BZOOOO ---
