Nobody! Because you're not an animal!  At least I don't think you are, are you?  . |
Oh, boy. 
What's really frightening is that the mental midgets that dream this drivel up are not only permitted to freely walk among us, there is nothing to stop them from reproducing.

You caught me at a bad time. We're under assault in Wisconsin and the mental "little people" flooded our capital just this week.  Since, according to them, I am by definition an evil, abusive, puppymill, by simple virtue of being a dog breeder, I believe I may reciprocate with the same forthrightness of conviction.
If at least some of the diehards would spend a little less time persecuting human beings ,and a little more of their time actually helping animals, I would remove the midget designation and merely reserve the term mental

| But, but, but, splutter, cough, is that article for real?? I thought maybe it was just a beat up?
If its real then Kristine you are right. Allowing these mental giants to reproduce is a crime. The human equivalent of BYB. |
| It does appear to be from an Aussie news paper - what have you heard? |
| Nothing!! But I am not an avid reader of news, too depressing. And I spend too much time here anyway.
I will have to look into it more. I'm away this weekend grooming my Mom's evil poodle again but may have some time Monday. |
| If I am going to actually think about this then here are my thoughts:
1. IF using dogs to drove sheep stresses the sheep then droving sheep by any means will be stressful. SIGH roast lamb will be banned. 
2. IF stressing sheep is such a BIG concern then what in the name of blazes is the supermarket chain doing allowing farmers to slaughter sheep. Surely the abattoirs is the MOST stressful component here!
SIGH roast lamb will be banned. |
