Any body watch it? :blink:

 

[Rebecca Claire]

Yes I have been watching this for the past couple of weeks :- " What did you think of it? Did you see the one the other week when the dog was sadly put to sleep?? I had tears

 

[madbella]

OMG! One of the dogs was put to sleep?

Please tell me what happened.

I dip in and out of it, so sometimes miss it and sometimes don't watch the whole programme.

 

[phill]

I enjoy it at times,Some people that get on it though are a bit "dime bar" like those last night with the husky,Have no idea what they are taking on and obviously don't do any research into the breeds!! :rant:

The dog that was put to sleep was agressive and could'nt be trusted to be left a second.

 

[Rebecca Claire]

I can't remember the breed Maddy but it was truly aggressive and whenever the owner when to leave her own house it was a mission, it use to grab her by hugging her with its front legs round her waste, and at the start of the program when it was put in the kennel she couldn't put a collar on it as it started to jump up and bite her (she was scared of her dog, no question, mind you so would I be!) and when on the lead she would try to tell him NO and he was try and bite her - it even went to bite the examiner!!!!! :- " She had children and the concern was it wasn't trusted especially not with her children. She had three options i) to keep dog but muzzled all the time and not left with kids ii) re-home him (sadly no-one would take him on, way too many issues) iii) put him to sleep.

It was sad, but at the same time is was dangerous, even though she had him from a pup, sad to see a dog turn out like that

Do correct me Phill if I have put something down wrong!

I do agree with you Phill - some of them haven't a clue, some really do benefit from this training and make their dogs lives so much more enjoyable. There are a few breeds of dog I also really like, but just wouldn't suit my lifestyle - wish some people would look into the breed first

the dog was an american bulldog, sad to see him put down but right imo

did you see the borzoi last night? omg!!! :wub: he was an absolute STUNNER!!! :wub:

i think you have to sort through the "lets be on tv element" , but on the whole i think the programme is good as the trainers all have different methods :thumbsup:

 

[madbella]

Oh dear. At least she made the right decision in the end. Poor dog though.

Echo, people should research the breed first.

Surprising how many people don't realise how big cuddly puppies will grow.

That will be the one - thank you :thumbsup:

I watched this on Tuesday night - do you mean the saluki/lurcher one?? of the little black speedy dog who did really well at flyball?

You are right, I am sure its very much 'lets get on tv!' situation - must admit, it has got me watching it weekly :- " :lol:

Very sad that the bulldog had to be put to sleep, but it did have to be put to sleep. Another case were in my opinion, the breeder of this dog need their wrists slapped as well. Just shows us how imortant it is to ensure our dogs go to the right homes. Sometimes what seems a 'good' home is not enough.

Such a good point. There are some wonderful people out there wanting certain types of dog, but haven't quite got what it takes to be top dog - shame really as some of the dogs could be absolutely amazing in the right hands.

I must say, everyone on K9 seems to be so careful of where their whippets go - its truly lovely to see :huggles: I wouldn't have any other breed - adore whippets through and through like most people on this site :huggles: :wub:

OH MY GOSH - 4 horses??? AM SO JEALOUS - 1 is enough for me for now, love TB's however feet issues - will think again next time! He is currently having a year off which he is loving, so could do with another horse to ride :- "

Tortoises??? These are superb little creatures, would love one of these but OH isn't warming to one

You show both horses and whippets? Horse rugs - don't start me on that, although my horse Storm only have 15 - decided to stop buying, mind you compared to what you have, 15 will be nothing :lol: :lol:
