Just sell out !!!

[LTcaughthog]

Listen if you hunt dogs and don't take care of your dogs or can't afford too just sell out !!! There working dogs that deserve attention and care like any working animal or person !!! If you can't give these animals the proper attention and needs then just get the hell out of the game !!!! Y'all are an embarrassment too the sport when you have half starved,  flee/tick infested dogs am then you expect them too go out and run miles for you and hunt for you !! So do us all a favor and  just take care of your damn dogs

Its not Hard 10 minutes of your time and your done. Every single person on earth has 10 minutes to spare. And if your to lazy to do that at least buy a feeder that you can fill up and they can eat when they want but dont let the dogs suffer because of your laziness.

Here we go lol , lots of theory's here , has been hashed out in the past lol , some people say a fat dog won't hunt , some say I feed plenty and he wont gain weight , I've had one of these , I've seen people's dogs not leave a gut pile because there so hungry , it is really sad to see any animal not taken care of properly or fed regularly , I agree though if you can't worm , heart worm , rabies , 7 way and feed the animal than you have no right to own , pics of starving looking animals which we have seen on here are a disgrace to the sport and fellow hunters

Yeah, I must say, it's an embarrassment for all involved in the sport when someone's running underfed parasite ridden dogs. Very sad. I do see it time to time. Now, due to this extreme heat, you typically gotta run your dogs at a lighter weight, but NOT starved down. I do know some folks who are fur mommys will look at any dog that's not 30lbs over weight and accuse the owner of starving said dog.....that's not what I am referring to here. I'm referring to folks who have dogs that are spiney, ribby, and are so thin that they are lacking muscle tone. NO dog should be treated that way....ESPECIALLY dogs that you expect so much out of. I wish there were a minimum standard of care required and enforced to own a dog in general. Fed properly, wormed monthly, vaccinated age appropriately.....parasite free. If I had a dollar for every person I've stumbled across that considered themselves a 'dogman/woman' that I wanted to smack some sense into.....I'd be rich.

Carefull!

So who are you calling out? I think caring for dogs takes more than 10 minutes a day. I have to clean water bowls everyday in when it gets hot because they go sit in the bowls. When I am stressed out or just mad I go sit with the dogs. I like them better than most people anyways. I say go feed your dogs and then sit outside with a cold drink. You notice things that you need to take care of that way and it helps you relax.

ummm ok.

from me.....who else. tapatalk

I'm guessing that the OP just came across what he's posting about obviously and is just ranting about it. I've been ticked off before about encountering similar situations.

Just saying caring for dogs is more than just food and water.

[dodgegirl]

I wish it took me 10 mins to tend to my dogs. But it don't. But I enjoy spending time with my dogs, I like them better then i like most people to be honest with you.

It takes Krystal more than 10 minutes to and maybe speaking out of turn , she just said that to make the statement that it doesn't take to much of your time , I will speak up for her because I've spent time getting to know her and her husband , very good people with a heart for dogs as big as Texas , very knowledgeable about dogs , I bought one from them ,  they sent records , extra food for the transition , called and check regularly , still to this day wants to know how rose is doing , what I have done with her , I named rose out of respect for her husbands wishes , they bent over backwards to accommodate me and to make sure the dog was gonna be taken care of , if there was just more folks like her that did exactly and even more than they promised this world would be a better place , talk is cheap especially as a Internet hog hunter and its easy to spout out and just turn it off , I've been guilty of this my self , hot tired and in a bad mood ,  but mrs Louisiana is top notch in my book

x2. I spend AT LEAST 2-3 hours a day tending to them...and that's just feeding, watering, and cleaning that has to be done...after that its me just sitting with them or messing with them. id pick my dogs over people any day ha

Be very careful what you wish for. The antis would love nothing more than to be able to roll in and shut EVERY hunting dog owner down and take their dogs because THEY think, or appear to THEM to not be PROPERLY cared for.
     Don't take what I'm about to say the wrong way. I despise the fact that people don't take proper care of animal's. BUT......Its their animals.
       Animals are not humans, what i wish is that people would be more concerned about a human life as some folks are about pets.
      I think most of these care issues are done out of ignorance. I know when I first started I didn't know much about PROPERLY caring for my dogs, and still learning 20+ years later. Ive also seen the people that were too dang lazy to feed or anything else and scratching their head wondering why their dogs wont do anything.
    My point is, who am I to tell or try to force my opinion, views, beliefs on anyone, or to take away someone else's property because I done like the way their doing things.
     Our government has too much power as it is, and growing every day.
think of it like this, the antis are forcing their beliefs on us every day, and trying to force us to not own any animal because THEY think what we do is cruel and wrong.

Let me reiterate on my standpoint here.

This thread was started on dogs. Of course human life is to be held above that of a dog! The topic of discussion here is dogs. Now, technically, no, it's not my business how someone decides to take care/or not take care of their dogs. However, when said person is a fellow dog hunter, it DOES indeed become my business, because by bringing a skinny underfed dog out in public, they are adding to the general perspective that dog hunters don't take care of their dogs, thus feeding the "anti's" and adding fuel to the fire. That's when it becomes my business. Same thing that I'm dealing with in regards to breed specific legislation. Is it my business if someone doesn't contain their bulldog properly, so that it can get loose and kill people's pets, and bite people because they were under socialized? Yes. Because all these occurances in the public eye, lead to proposals of bills, and legislations trying to take away our rights. Same concept of what can happen with our rights to hunt with our dogs. Now, I am aware that Judy Q. Public has a hard time deciphering the difference between a working weight dog vs. a legit skinny dog, (I deal with this with my bulldogs a lot), but the OP of this thread is a fellow hunter, so surely he knows the difference between a legit skinny dog and a working weight dog. When the actions of others may directly effect myself as part of the same community, I DO feel entitled to speak up. Those of us within this community SHOULD know better. Sure, some folks have lower IQ's than others, but it does not take a rocket scientist to look at a dog, that looks darn near a skeleton with hair on it, and think "hmm...maybe I should chuck some more kibble to that dog."

I agree with what you said 100 percent...but more legislation is not the answer as you were saying in an earlier post...true, we have some real dummies out there and those few are the problem...a few bad pics here and there and the antis just love it...the few pics can and will make headlines and the neutral majority will vote alongside the antis...I believe I am pretty easy going but if it were up to me I would line up all the antis and send them through the gas chamber and make fertilizer for the wildlife out of them...kinfolks included...
