Best producing DDR studs - Page 7

I think your words were, "I'll bet you were a child abuser". I saved some of that crap, just like you save stuff. It's all taken down by now, I'm sure.

I told you that I took a plea, for sake of expediency.. because this is why both sides HAVE the plea bargaining system... to save everyone a lot of hassle and money and undue risk. Obviously, the county has or at least HAD a lot more resources than I did, so it would have been foolhardy to go forward, "just to prove a point". The average idiot would do that, but I am not your average idiot! LOL. I know a tarbaby when I see one. Anyway.. I had a lot of evidence, and believe me, they would not have offered me that plea deal if I didn't. I don't think Santa Claus works in the DA's office.

Now.. That said, the plea was relevant only to one dog, a bitch named "Figgy", who was maintained by my husband on another property. I didn't know what was going on with her. He told me there was a problem when she was really teetering on the brink. I intervened, got her back to eating / gaining weight again, and gave him specific instructions, which he then ignored. She crashed again, and I had to bring her to the kennel. I don't know why I bothered to try to save her. She was a basket case, nerve wise. It happens.. dogs are individuals and considering the pedigree, I cannot be entirely suprised, in hindsight.

My husband is arguably retarded in his development, somehow. I think he has pretty bad ADD, but I think it's more common than anyone ever knew. Hubby is lucky that HE didn't get a 2 x 4 upside his head (only kidding). It wouldn't do any good.. He's just who he is. Figgy was who she was. I've only seen a handful of dogs like her, over the years.. run, run, run, run, run.. all day long. She ran herself down, and was not managed properly. Some dogs will do it. Thankfully, it's not so common, but I hope I never see another one of these dogs in my life. FACT: Figgy only came to the kennel three days before the raid. I should have had her and a lot of other really worthless dogs put down.  But, that's not my natural inclination, and it's not the message I was getting from the staff at the vet hospital where I used to take dogs to have LEGALLY, HUMANELY euthanized, occasionally... usually preceded by at least a two month process of internal debate and hand wringing. I decided to go "no kill" for awhile and ended up in a huge mess. It just got out of hand. I tried to see it from the POV of the "no kill" staffers. I would not be very happy to be asked to do that, if my motivation was to help save animals. Well, but sometimes it just has to be done. I tried to "save" and spare these old pensioners and surplus / misfit / unwanted dogs and all it made was trouble.

But, I know.. There are no excuses.. only draconian punishments for people who make mistakes. That's the new order of things. No tolerance for mistakes equals no risk taking, and this is why (in my opinion), we are stalling out in the US, no economic growth. When draconian regulatory systems and property forfeiture become the rule of the day, then government agencies and enforcement would be expected only to get bigger and bigger, but in fact they are also hitting a brick wall.. because the private sector cannot grow. No growth, no funds or tax revenues.

I had to treat the kennel as a business. My heart told me otherwise, but reality dictated a hard line. I knew I had to make some real changes and hard choices, and it was going to take me all year to do what I needed to do. But, I never got the chance to try. Enter the 800 lb gorilla and the proverbial shit hit the fan. It used to be that you would be issued an infraction or "notice to comply / improve". We haven't seen that sort of thing in a long time. The l

continued..

We haven't seen that sort of thing in a long time. The labor unions just want to come in and levy severe fines and forfeitures / closures. That's what they do. So, the risk in undertaking any kind of enterprise has become too great and people don't want to try. Banks don't want to lend, and insurance companies don't want to underwrite. It's OK, I guess. The market demands will be filled by underground marketeers and overseas suppliers. This whole "puppymill" movement reminds me a lot of the prohibition movement. Arguably, society as a whole would be better off without alcohol use, but prohibition didn't work. In fact, it was a disaster. It also was inspired by a zealous community of do gooders and ethicists. It got so bad that the government was putting poison into alcoholic products which might be used as a substitute.

Oh.. and Schaferhunden.. Do you think I CARE what you think of me? LOL That is too funny, really!
"Oh, my... They all hate me!" ROFLMAO..

So, Sock Puppet.. all the other crap you are accusing me of is allegations and libel / slander. I plead to ONE count, related to Figgy, only. I took that felony. I owned it...even though I didn't get her into that condition.

No other evidences were entered, because there was no trial. There was some pretrial stuff, and a preliminary hearing, but they had a problem with that, because I had evidences to suggest that there were some serious issues with their testimony. So, I don't suppose that was why they were so willing to enter into a plea agreement.. Oh, no.. couldn't have anything to do with it.

You are so wrong DDR and all that stuff was put back so if I said those exact words they are here. I have no clue if you are around children so again I did not make that statement.

As far as the rest of your story you plead guilty to only one count but you where certainly guilty of much more than one count. You would not be so lucky now.

Please quit trying to blame others. If your husband is the way he is then why would you blame him for this? If he has what you say then why is he in charge of taking care of the dogs.

Janice I tried to be nice to you in the beginning but you want to blame everybody else so sorry I can't feel sorry for you.

One of their own veterinarians told me on a visit when I ran into him there at the dog pound, in hushed but urgent directive.. "GET THESE DOGS OUT OF HERE!!!!".  He admitted to this under oath. Why did he tell me that? Maybe he was one of the few people there who really cared about the dogs. I can tell you that I got nothing but malevolence and insouciance from a lot of other people I encountered in that system. But, invariably, you will find some honest people in any group, and another pound worker testified under oath that the dogs were in good shape, overall.

Everything is not always what it seems. Let the discerning man decide for himself. I am pointing out a warning. Sometimes, the medicine is what kills the patient, and a common cold should be left alone.

You're right, Sock Puppet.. a plea stands on the record as a conviction.. same thing. But, you've taken a few too many liberties with it, IMO. Newspapers are protected by something called "qualified immunity". They can take whatever the police say and print it. Oh, well.... There's nothing I can do about it, and I know it. If I were to try to sue the Pet-Abuse site, I could be forced to pay for the cost of their defense. It's called "Anti-SLAPP", and this is what got Bobby Berosini.

Yes, I have done my homework, and I know how the whole game works. I also know about lobbying firms and sock puppets and their dirty tricks in the propaganda / PR / public opinion game. Yellow press journalism rides, again.. 

The animal rights industry (a "conflict industry") is accumulating a vast sum.. hundreds of millions of dollars, and people like me .. struggling, working people who only hoped to do something good in life.. are the poster children and collateral damage in the PR campaigns. We end up as road kill, left on the side of the road.  

DDR-DSH,

I have heard that you are still breeding possibly with a partner is this true?

You're being relatively nice today, Sock Puppet, so either you took your meds today, or another person in the activist boiler room is manning the "Sock Puppet" ID, or you are using yet another form of emotional manipulation.. switching back and forth from mean to nice. I know all the games pretty well by now, so what ever the reason for the change of tone, I don't care. I remember you said some perfectly horrible things to me, before, which indicated to me that you do not have one genuine bone in your body, or in that hand that's shoved up your sock puppet ass, either.

I am very much a forgiving / forgetting sort of person.. to a fault. It takes a lot of effort for me to stay mad at anyone for any length of time. But, I will make that effort, because I have learned the hard way that you cannot make nice with everyone in the world. We all have enemies in life, and adversaries, even if we don't want them. I never meant to seek out any kind of trouble with anyone, but when a man or woman has dogs, they have troubles.. like it or not. I wish I could find a magical island where I could live only with the animals, but that place doesn't exist. So, I can either forget about the animals altogether and just grow a thick scaly skin and let my heart atrophy into a small, cold stone.. Or, I can still have some animals in my life and be prepared to take chances and do battle. But, trust me on this much. I do not ever want to do business with the public selling puppies. They can have the pound dogs and rescues.. fine by me. I hope it all works out well for them and that everyone is happy with that solution. They won't have many choices, the way things are heading.

Hey Puppet it not her fault it was Bob,Harry,Joe,Dick,Clark.Susan Joan,Joann.George,Peter.Betty Cazmo,ect.ect have any more people you can blame KA-Pow KA-Pow

DDR-DSH,

I am a nice person but I can be mean and ruthless. I tried to be nice to you from the beginning but others jumped in and set you off. I believe people can change seen it all my life but those people could admit to having a problem and they put it behind them and moved on. No I do not like animal abusers so I reacted strongly to your lack of taking respondsiblity for what was done. I just never heard remorse or even anything that sounded close to remorse.

This site is about dogs and I am sure you can understand why people including myself do not want you here. You are smart enough to understand why but you keep coming back. You readily admit you don't like it here but you keep coming back. You say you don't read here but you know a lot about things that are going on around here. Please for the love of the dogs can you just leave this site alone. Get some help to understand why you can't take the blame for what you did it is no ones fault but your own.

Please just go. If you truly understand then you will just walk away.

I don't have any partners. I am not in business with the dogs.
My goal now is philanthropy.. as it was originally, some thirty five years ago.
Whatever pups I might have from an occasional litter which don't test out for the goals of the project, can be sold and someone else deserving can keep the money. I just need to be paid for the vaccines and health certificates / vet checks, crates, etc. I even pay for the food myself. I'm not in it for the money. I just like the dogs.
In November of 2008, I was given two good dogs which were perfectly matched and suited for what I wanted (as it turns out, better than I had hoped), and so I bred them, then let the person who gave them to me sell whatever pups they could and keep the money. There was no contract or agreement. She needed to place those adult dogs and I saw potential in them. That seemed to be only fair to let the former owner take the money, since her money was tied up in the dogs.. her advertising, etc, and it seemed to me that she had been taken advantage of by others, before. I'd do it again for her in a heartbeat. She's a good lady, good person. So, I think that there is nothing wrong with that.
There are easier ways to make money than with dogs, that's for sure. I have to limit the dogs so that I have time to pursue other opportunities and tend to other obligations.
I had considered to sell that one female adult, but I see now that if I ever sell anything (even if it is my perfect right to do so) that I will be accused of being "greedy" and "exploiting the dogs", "only in it for the money". I will not sell puppies, anymore. I'm just done with it. Gives me a headache just to think about it. At one time I had considered to make the kennel my retirement business, but there's just too much conflict and jealousy and trouble to be had. You think you'd love to have a business doing something you love, but it just ruins it, it seems.
So, something else will be arranged for that particular bitch and hopefully she can be sold and the money will go to a cause that I like. Even for a few thousand dollars, it could never be enough money to make a material difference in my life, so what the heck?
If something good comes of it, it will be like the office joke that I like, so much..
"Doing a a good job around here is like wetting your pants in a dark suit... You get a warm feeling, but nobody notices". So, I don't care about getting notice or recognition. I'm just looking for that elusive good feeling.. seeking my own sense of relevance and purpose. If I don't have that, I have no purpose in living, really. But, that's something I have to find, myself. You cannot provide it, you cannot reaffirm it, you cannot destroy it, you cannot take it from me.

I'm a pretty good problem solver, I think. I see that raising dogs on any scale past one litter is what I'd call a "Herculean task"... something so demanding as to be almost impossible by one person.The vast logistical problems associated with having a breeding program can be managed and mitigated by various strategies. Frozen semen is one of those tools. You get the genetic diversity without the need for a huge dog colony or even a co-operateive community (dog people are not, in my experience, realiably co-operative / trustworthy).
That's basically it..  John La Torre I think is the one who is spreading this idea that I am "in cahoots" with other breeder/s and in some sort of partnership. There is no partnership, no business. I know ONE person and we can help each other once in a great while, if possible. To me, that is just sharing... NOT business.
And, I have been very suspicous that John also started this whole crap about the Pet-Abuse site, because he is about the only one who would know who I was or care. He sought me out way before I ever thought I would get back into dogs in any fashion, and pretty much got me started, again. I really didn't want it and have been very ambivalent and even reluctant about it until last year, ten years after all this crap happened. I told him straight up what had happened, because I didn't want it to come out later. I just thought it was something we should get out on the table, right away.. Now, I think he tries to use it against me, gunnysacking on me, when he had my trust. He GAVE me a puppy, Biene.. who we still have as a pet and has never been bred, and he knew all about this, because I told him, beforehand. To him, I think that the dogs are all about competition and I am not on his team. I'm sorry if he sees things that way. It's sad..
To me, I think that most of the outsiders coming onto this forum must think it's pretty pathetic. Try to look at it as someone who is NOT of this community. We're a sack of bitches, really. I know that I cannot work within this community and I don't intend to try. You all seem to have it figured out pretty well how you want to do things.
I don't even know why I'm spending so much time here today. I need to get some other things done. Bye..
