Shanna, Thank you so much you made my day. I really was upset by that lady and started questioning my own reasons for taking in so many. I take very good care of them and three of the last ones I got came from a no kill but they needed love and attention and were getting none at the sanctuary. I knew this because I volunteer there and couldn't stand leaving them behind to sleep in cages at night. They needed more and due to medical or behavior issues they would have never been placed. So I took them problems and all and love them despite the issues. To me this is what is important. They are cared for, loved and happy. Thank you for reminding me.

Its just there nature there fix. You do not know this person, never met her, so just let it go, and go back to what is important... loving your babies! I have said it before and I will say it again, if they are well cared for, and happy, then it fine. At least they are not on death row!! why do some people think some dogs would be better off in a shelter? even a no kill shelter, the dogs are in cages, with no one to hug them, love them, or a lap for them to lay in. how sad is that? You go girl.... give those babies all the love you have. dont let others tell you what to do, especially someone you dont even know. :) It sounds to me like this person really does not see the sweet kindness you give these dogs. To me that is not a dog person! ok ok... I have said enough...

The moderator ask me question about how I could afford so many. I told her that I do my own grooming, shots and have only one that needs spaying and that I use a clinic through the rescue group that does discount spaying. I feed Blue to all my dogs that I purchase through a group that buys bulk. My dog are my life and I would do nothing to hurt them. She called me all sorts of names. Said I cut corners and that is worse than being a hoarder or back yard breeder. She took me off her group. I am still very hurt by this. Like I said I love my babies and would do anything for them. They are all my husband and I have. Her scolding has left me shell shocked!

I have been called names and so on. But if they came to our home they would see that is it clean and the chi's are all well cared for. Something a hoarder wouldn't do. All my babies have vet visits, shots, spay neuter and so on. They are taken care of as well as most people care for their babies. Well anyway my break is over, good luck with the new group. Maybe I will check it out.

I do NOT want to affect the Chi group at all Dasha...nothing is gonna change here!!! People are wise enough to not join if they can not handle it...I dont want anyone to join if they think it will impact this group but I certainly dont see why it would need to. Many times with my groups I post the same message to all of them...if it is a generic and not personal or specific to one person...i think thats why the BCC is there for our use. Really guys...please do not join if you think you can only post to one group...I do not want this perfect CHI group impacted. I know you guys wouldn't want that either!!! I simply wanted to offer a place where people with a "bunch" of dogs wanted to learn and share their ways...their management skills. Also a place where you wouldn't get slammed for having too many! Even with my little pack I get garbage all the time and it makes me mad!! I have friends on other lists that have more than 15 and they are sick and tired of being attacked because they have chosen to live their lives with so many. I thought...and still do think that there should be a safe place where everyone could share all that without the "comments" from others about it. It amazes me how people feel they have the right to pass judgement on situations they know little to nothing about. No one will get slammed for having multiple dogs...now I have the power to stop it ...heee heee heee!!! There are LOTS of things I do differently because I have multiple dogs!!! Things have to be done differently!!! My life is WAY different than when I had one or two...it just is. If it didn't change someone would be shortchanged around here. It is REALLY fun to learn about the different ways people do things with lots of dogs...I LOVE hearing about it and trying things out. One really fun idea that I learned from a lady that has 9...she took one of her largest bedrooms and made it the dog room...you should see pics...it is the cutest room I have EVER seen...decorations, paintings, functional yet adorable furniture...lighting...you name it is centered around her dogs. Because I LOVE to decorate I spend many hours re-designing in my head how I would create the perfect dog room!!! I have saved all the pics she ever posted...and pics from many others who did the same thing...and someday I will do it too. BUt untill then I sure have fun planning it!!!! No one would most likely consider that with just one dog...so just another idea that stems from those with multiples. So...if you enjoy hearing fun ideas that people do with multiples of dogs...if you have more than one and want more...if you want to spend much of your life surrounded by dogs...and IF YOU CAN HANDLE more than one group...please come join! You wont hurt my feelings if you dont guys!!!! I totally understand!!!

Anyone can join...how about that!!!???? I really labeled it as a "bigger" pack because I thought that would deferentiate from the Chi group and I didn't want to "take" anyone away from it but I guess it is totally legal to be in more than one group...so PEGGY!!!!!NANCY!!!!!

Two or more dogs is a pack and the leader of the pack is the owner, that makes three as a pack. Well at least you used the card that I made for you on your main page! -------Original Message------- From: Deanna Corey Date: 1/5/2011 7:25:48 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [Chihuahuas] inthedogpark yahoo group Hello Everyone, I am starting a new yahoo group called In The Dog Park...it is for those of us who have 4 or more pups. If you are interested in joining just go to http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/Inthedogpark/ and join. This is my very first attempt at a group so we will see how it goes but I wanted somewhere where those of us that lived with a "pack" could support and educate each other...ya know...on great ways to feed, manage, train, walk, play, accomodate etc with a larger # of dogs. Love to see you there!!! I hope this is ok to post about...let me know if it is not!!!
