Question for Swadesh?

Favorite Answer

I always simply ask for an email address. If the asker, or commenting contributor to the question, won't provide that, then I move on with my busy day.

Life's too short to deal with those who make themselves difficult to deal with.

As to an aggressive 20-week old Rott ... most outside of the business don't really understand aggression well enough to accurately label it; they just don't.

I see possessive dogs miss-labeled as aggressive, I see defensive dogs miss-labeled as aggressive, and I see protective dogs miss-labeled as aggressive. But rarely do I see God honest aggressive dogs.

I used to, and there was one line of Rott which, when doubled back to in a pedigree, I absolutely enjoyed working with. I never got to see the original article in action, but his progeny were bad-***, hard as nails, "gonna bite you and make it hurt all the way to the ground" kind of dogs. The kind of Rott that you learned to use a gauntlet under a Marburg, or Chicago sleeve ... because he was going to crush it.

Lorraine, I think I know who you're talking about because I was the one who posted the link to your profile so he could email you. With that said, I had the same problem with another user yesterday, and I'll tell you what I think the issue is. Someone emailed me yesterday to chew my butt out for an answer I had given to their question, and when I went to reply back, the same thing happened to me. What I think happened in both cases is that they opened their email so they could email us, but then closed it after that so we couldn't email them back. In other words, they wanted to tell us something, but they did not care to hear what we had to say, so they didn't allow us to. In your case, that's really quite sad because that person did take the time to ask a question about their Rott puppy, and even wanted a response from you, but then they wouldn't allow you TO respond back. In my case, it was no big deal because my email was from an under-age user anyway. (12 years old)

The only other thing is that it might be a glitch, but I doubt that because another user just emailed me a little bit ago through the YA email, and I had to problem emailing them back at all, so therefore I don't really think it is a glitch....Show more
