I would be perfectly happy to give you some advice on dog training, despite your terrible attitude.

In turn, I would be most unwilling to attempt to teach you about mutual respect between two animals. That comes from within.

No I haven't Sounds rather interesting though

If I was as touchy as you, I would be tempted to quote your earlier post:

you are pushing the limit. Restrain from personal attacks.

But I prefer to do everything I can to help this breed that I love, rather than make snarky remarks on an Internet forum about how much you hate them. Feel better?

@Doc Ebola We come from very different schools. http://arachnoboards.com/threads/cat-training.295523/
I understand the need for obedience in an animal. But that obedience can be achieved without dominating the animals spirit.
I fully realize this is a much more difficult, painstaking process and expedience rules most animal training these days. However, I don't want to be surrounded by subservient slaves but partners in life.
Can you respect and understand this?

You assume far, far too much. What on Earth do you know about my training methods? I have rescued and successfully rehomed over thirty Bulldogs to date. In many cases, from utterly appalling conditions. They are all now in happy loving homes and I'm still in touch with every single one of them, or the owners. I don't know what your problem is, but it's completely misdirected. You seem to be getting quite upset. Perhaps you should log off and have a think.

 

[The Snark]

By all means, elucidate. Enlighten us all on your training methods. And if they differ from other common methods, additional info would be quite welcome.

You presume far, far too much. I fully understand commonplace animal training, and I respect it and many trainers.

No, I think I've got your number.

I'd love to hear about the extraordinary measures taken to assure this chaps health and contentment.

This was your first post. You're simply a hater of the breed who knows zero about them, as proven here:

Think a 100 to 150 lb torpedo barreling at your lower legs. Small children get flattened as a matter of course.

Male English Bulldogs are roughly 50-55 lbs, literally 1/3 that size. You're busted.

 

[The Snark]

I stand corrected. My encounters have placed them in my memory as heavier.

Now if you will do me the courtesy. I had several long discussions with one of our old time respected members here. PitBullLady. One of the topics that came up was animal abuse. She went into some length about people, children, riding dogs and how it can cause severe injuries.
Your post reminded me of this. So I tossed it into a web search. Several sources came back. I cited one of them, a veterinarian from a reputable institute.
You replied:
"Well, coming from a guy who doesn't know how to train a young dog to respect children and let's them get bowled over like skittles, your little copy and paste effort at a retort there doesn't cut much mustard. 0/10 for effort."
That post discounts a legitimate citation as well as comes across antagonistic.

"Does your poodle hate you too?"
That post seems to draw a derogatory conclusion.

"As I said, bad owners make for bad dogs. I've rescued a bunch of EBs and never had them barrel children over or crash around my house. I would be perfectly happy to give you some advice on dog training, despite your terrible attitude."
That post again draws a quite negative and derisive conclusion. I also mentioned in a later post that I would very much like to hear of your wisdoms regarding these animals. That has been ignored.

"But I prefer to do everything I can to help this breed that I love, rather than make snarky remarks on an Internet forum about how much you hate them. Feel better?"
This is a deliberate personal attack, forbidden by ArachnoBoards. It also draws a very erroneous conclusion.

"This was your first post. You're simply a hater of the breed who knows zero about them, as proven here:"
And again, another erroneous conclusion and personal attack.


Now I reiterate, asking sincerely; By all means, elucidate. Enlighten us all on your training methods. And if they differ from other common methods, additional info would be quite welcome. Will you please be so kind as to offer information in this regard?

 

[Doc Ebola]

Your whole story about "meeting and falling in love with a 150lb English Bulldog," upon which you based your misinformation about the breed, is totally busted as complete BS. Nobody who knows about dogs mistakes a 50lb breed for a 150lb breed. That's like mistaking a Shih Tzu for a heavily muscled Bulldog. I'm sure Arachnaboards take a very dim view of people like you trolling new members and attempting to derail their threads, which at your age, on a forum for inverts, is quite frankly weird.

 

[Doc Ebola]

In fact, I just checked the forum rules on posting etiquette, and Arachnaboards does indeed take a very dim view of older members trolling new members, hijacking threads, and personal attacks. The rules state to take up these matters privately. So I suggest you take this to private messages where we can speak plainly. Is that clear enough?

Right well the pissing contest has ruined this thread.

Agreed. What a shame.
