Before people read this and get all angry...here is the disclaimer....It's supposed to be tongue in cheek not taken seriously!!!!!! I was just thinking that sometimes we all worry too much.
Gerri Dueringer ************************************* OK. Selling to people who work is out. Selling to people with children is out. Selling to people with hampsters and large exotic birds is out. What else can we add to the "Verbotten" list??? Hummmm.... Apartments - too confining. Farms - not confining enough. Cars...definitely cars. Dogs die more frequently by being hit by a car than they do from all other "Natural" causes combined. New owner might inadvertantly back over their dog in the driveway. Or, they may allow their dog to ride, unrestrained in the car. We won't even discuss the open back of a pickup truck. Doors...people that have doors DEFINITELY cannot have a Cavalier. Doors can be left open and the dog can dash out, which winds back around to the "Car" thing. Electricity...can't have that either. Puppies are notorious for chewing and what if they bite into a lamp cord? Cats...no cats, no sir'ree. Those damn things have sharp claws and can severely injure a Cavalier. Fish tank....absolute No No. What if the dog gets curious and falls in and drowns? Lake front property...dog could drown...dog could fall out of a boat. Ducks on lake could injure dogs. What if a snapping turtle came up from the bottom of the lake and snatched that dog under while it was happily swimming with it's owner? And we've all heard the stories about monster catfish that sometimes live in freshwater lakes...swallow a Cavalier whole. Ocean front property..too horrible to even consider. Think Jaws... Fences...definitely no fences. Dogs can go over or under. Gates can be left open. Dog can get hung on the fence. Yards...the whole idea of a yard is out. Horrible things can happen out there. Dog might swallow a rock and get a bowel obstruction. Fire ant hills. Fireants can take down foals and calves so imagine what quick work they would make of a Cavalier. Mosquitoes are out there too and any sort of wildlife might injure a Cavalier. The perfect scenario for a Cavalier would be a clear plastic hepa-filtered room, completely sterile. That way all contingencies would be planned for. Except...what if one of the walls collapsed? Nope...can't have that either. So, now we are down to the fact that there is NO suitable place for a Cavalier. ========================================================= "Magic Commands": to stop receiving mail for awhile, click here and send the email: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?body=SET%20CKCS-L%20NOMAIL to start it up gain click here: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?body=SET%20CKCS-L%20MAIL E-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] for assistance.
