MilitantDogOwner Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 Just watched a section on Sky News about Dog Farms in the UK. There are few things that will bring a tear to my eye but the....words escape me but disgusting is the closest I can get to...conditions that these dogs were being breed and raised in just made me sick. One of the pups on the footage looked very similar to my Gizmo (the Lhasa Apso in my Avatar). Yet the worst thing is that the farms are licensed and will not be shut down. How can a nation that calls itself "a dog loving" nation allow this? Has anything like this ever happened here? And if so what happened? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albert Tatlock Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 Has anything like this ever happened here? And if so what happened? Yes - there was an experiment with one here, but it soon closed down when it became clear that dogs didn't lay eggs and taste like crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if it has ever been investigated. I doubt it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite bland, but very greasy though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MilitantDogOwner Posted August 4, 2009 Author Share Posted August 4, 2009 Ok I realise I might be in error here. Starting a thread about dogs mistreated. On Manx Forums. I know the Manx (for the most part judging by some of the patrons of this forum) are anti-dog, but even this must upset some of you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mutley Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 I know the Manx (for the most part judging by some of the patrons of this forum) have a great sense of humour, and like to take the piss out of me cos I'm a bit of a tosser. Fixed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can a nation that calls itself "a dog loving" nation allow this? Has anything like this ever happened here? And if so what happened? Did not watch the programme but isn't it the case that those who wish to own exotic breeds (Lhasa Apso, my arse), or "must have" pedigrees supply the demand that these (admittedly unpleasant) dog farmers cater for? There are plenty of nice dogs at the MSPCA, and from other sources, living humanely, which would welcome the chance to have a loving owner/family. Crocodile tears don't wash.

Fixed No need for fixing, my original statment stands. You only have to look at the Dog Walking thread to see how anti-dog people are on this forum.
