When you see that topics being featured on each day are ‘Terrier & Hound’ (the other victims of blood sports); ‘Toy & Utility’ (animals are not toys); ‘Gundog’ (!) and ‘working & Pastoral’ (animals should not be slaves) ::)

MemberDo you know what annoyed me the most about that…
Breeding unhealthy dog’s…
The misuse/abuse of the apostrophe. (should be just dogs – plural does not have an apostrophe!!)
Even if we were breeding unhealthy dogs’ dinners, the apostrophe wouldn’t be where they’ve left it.
Learn to write correctly and you’ll gain a little more respect from the educated masses. Oh, and change your silly policies or it won’t be much.

MemberFarrokh, I have a lot of respect for the posts you write. It certainly seems like you put the needs of your dog first.
Did you read the link? Where it said that “working” dogs was an offensive title because “dogs are not slaves”? The content of the site was pitiful at best. It showed a distinct lack of education about dogs’ needs generally. There is a big distinction between breeding for health and banning the breeding of pedigree dogs altogether. If you took the time to read some of the other posts I have written on you would know my views on this matter. I feel very strongly that breeding healthy pedigree dogs is a good thing. And no, I don’t believe crufts should be stopped, I think that the emphasis should be on putting health above “beauty”.
And yes, I do think it is important if as a business you want to be taken seriously that you use good grammar. If you were to write a CV I have no doubt that you would take the time to use a spell/grammar check on your computer.
