Maybe Dennis will post about how neutering DIDN'T keep his male from mounting etc one of his in heat females & the end result of that little escapade.
Dennis?!!!
So neutering is not always the answer to your prayers either in terms of dog behaviors. Most dogs with personality & certain behavior issues are not 'cured' by neutering or spaying & in some cases these negative behavors can be created or even exasperated by spay/neutering. Sometimes the answer is not always so easy as she I or shouldn't I. But for the average pet, it is the answer most of the time.
I'm still in therapy over that incident

I can't believe fluffing in serious threads is part of the Leerburg Culture.
Somebody needs a nice tall cold adult beverage.
This is a "discussion forum" after all.
C'mon - these are the "dog days" of summer
A dog has alot of friends because he wags his tail instead of his mouth.

As a young man I was offered a job as a fluffer, but I declined after I found out what the job really entailed

I... can't think of a come-back to top that.
For once, the lol is actually 100% truthful. The dog jumped up out of a sound sleep, I laughed so loud.
I snorted through my nose...

If you initiate a fluff thread on the non dog forum I believe they have here I'll come fluff.
I can't believe fluffing in serious threads is part of the Leerburg Culture.
Hello, I'm Barbara, and I'm a recovering fluffer. If it weren't for the fluff, great folks AND good information here, I'd be in the corner, sucking my thumb and rocking back and forth.
We enjoy fluff around here, and in my experience, as long as it doesn't get mean, personal, etc... it is tolerated. Kinda jazzes things up a bit.
Let's all let our hair down, shake it all wild and loose, and chant "Care Bears... Care Bears..."
