There has been a few things that i just don't understand. I have a few friends that have got dogs off of here that were supposed to be finished dogs, got a trial and all that, but when the dog didn't work out u can't get a hold of the guy,  but when u try to say something on here to make others aware of what happened, it gets deleted. Same as the man that had found his collars in the ditch and dogs were gone. IF u hunted around there would u want to know who the guy is that is taking the dogs, i damn sure know that i would want to know. I bet if it was yall dogs that got taken you would want to know about everybody that has a reputation of taking dogs and such. Im not understanding why posts like that get deleted. im sure this one will be deleted, and i will probabyl get kicked off, over just stating my opinion. everyone else that has a little authority on here can say what they fill so why can't I or nybody else for that matter?Huh?

Think people who moderate and the members probably agree...but they cant allow slander and negative discussions. It has to be regulated so the board does not get out of hand.

Especially if it is not fact...just a personal opinion or hearsay...

Facts are hard to come by on the WWW.
   I had to deal with it awhile back. When people make up crap with no facts b/c of reasons unknown it results in damage to people's names which shouldnt be taken lightly.

Unfortunatly this topic has been discussed multiple times. And while the mod cant allow neg. comments I do think it would be a good idea to have like other sites a 30 day and 30 post min. before posting in the dog trade or classified and that may keep puppy peddlers off or a good guy section for people that have GOOD dealing with someone so that others know that haave a good reputation with buying and selling things... But the best info on a dog deal is if it is a TRULY finished dog then that person wont have a problem taking u hunting with the dog or you taking them and the dog on a hunt to see how it hunts in its enviorment because some dogs hunt diffrent then u may want. Sorry it happened but it does more times than not

Jeff
  I am a betting man,, and with that!!! I am betting its a Case of CYA on the board owners side and  theres  two side to every
dog trade story ,,, i am all  for a hit list so to speak of all those selling  dogs that need to be culled, and damn sure if they
have a record of doing it,,, just hang around for awhile  and you will see everything balance out  in the long run,,i lingered in the shadows for a long time before i signed in Wink
   that is JMO and it is not to reflect the opions of ETHD

    It's really pretty simple to get along on this website, and out of 1200 members there are less than 10 that have ever been banned...So odds are you have to really screw up to get kicked off Wink

Follow these simple rules on ETHD dog trade, and you will not get taken on a dog trade.

Quote
1. Ads on this board are strictly between buyer and seller, ETHD assumes no responsiblity.

2. If you have a legitimate question on the dog, then ask it, any other comments need to be taken up in private. Negative comments and/or bashing the individual or the dog will not be tolerated and will result in being banned from this forum. Any disputes between buyer's and seller's will be held off the boards and in private.

3. BUYER BEWARE... research the seller as much as possible. If the majority of their posts are in The Dog Trade, that should tell you something.

4. Sound advise: If you are going to spend a bunch of money on a dog ... GO SEE THE DOG HUNT/CATCH BEFORE YOU BUY. Any respectable person selling a proven dog will not have a problem with this, if they do turn and run the other way. Also get a trial period on the dog, but remember this... it takes a lot of dogs time to get used to their new owner and new packs. A short trial period is not always sufficient.

I bet if it was yall dogs that got taken you would want to know about everybody that has a reputation of taking dogs and such.

At this point I don't think anyone knows who took the dogs.  Now with that said should people start naming all the bad guys in hog dogging?  I know some sure enough bad people, one of them posts on here occasionally to sell a dog, it is my OPINION that he is a bad person...but would it be fair to him to call him out for it publicly?

I agree, I got out of hand once and I wish I would have just kept my mouth shut, not worth rattling the cage. Plus having a opinion is what makes this page go round so lets all just keep having fun and lets keep moveing this sport forward, Good hunting boys!

no idon't think u should just go shooting names in the air of people that have a reputation of dog napping. well if nybody sees me post or inquire about a dog, and the man has a reputation of screwing people, pm me and tell me that i won't even consider the dog nymore, i don't care how good he is or not. i don't see how people can sleep at night doing some stuff like stealing dogs, and screwing people over. i traded a man a dog a few weeks ago, and he hasn't got to hunt the dog, due to being out of town working, when he gets home he is going to hunt her and if he doesn't like her for any reason im going to make things right. seems  from stories i have heard from oldier gentlemen back in the old days people didn't do all this lying about dogs as such or should i say it didn't happen near as often as it does now. just my opionon

I am not sure what this boards policy is but after dealings on other boards you are better off allowing ZERO slander, even if the people are bad and every one knows it. One time it may truely be a bad person, the next it may be just a misunderstanding, no way to regulate it with out a judge and jury. Cheesy

I have seen some stuff come up for sale from people that do bad business and I privatly let those interested know my experience with that person. That is about all we can do.

Them all timers didn't mind doing away with a cull That for sure now people want to pwan them off on someone... Try to make a dollar!!!! But I do not want to slander someone and it has to be a fact before I would even consider saying this thiefs name in public!! I think the dogs will come up dead before they get them back there is to much heat on this guy.... He has been seen with the dogs but they are not at his house....

Jeffeasttx,

     I can tell you that I have sent out a friendly PM to a few people inquiring about a dog from one specific person. That person very rarely posts and has only listed a few dogs for sale, but he has really screwed some of my friends, and I don't want to see it happen to someone else.  So in keeping within the rules of the board, I PM the potential buyer, and I offer them a list of references on the person.  Maybe they call them, maybe they don't...It's up to them at that point, and I am not publicly calling the person out, but at least they have the opportunity to be informed. Wink

Jeff, I'm under good "advise" that when you publicly slander someone it opens doors to legal issues in which ETHD will have no part in. It's never been allowed and it never will be.

If people disagree with this policy, then so be it... it will never change.

Looks like we need some more post on the "I want to thank some good honest people" thread.  I havn't been a hog dogger for a long time and it would be nice to know who some good, honest breeders are.
