Title: Oh boy..... Post by: MrsLouisianaHogDog on May 05, 2014, 04:47:40 pm So the thanks to the media, we already have a bunch of nutty folks running around under all these mis- conceptions about "dog fighting" and what is considered paraphernalia and all that BS. Well I have an ad up on Craigslist for a dog box I am selling, and I received this inquiry that I wasn't expecting, but I think I handled it well, LOL. I will copy and paste the dialogue below for all to enjoy. So now....a dog box has something to do with dog fighting? :-\
Could you tell me what a "dog box" is? Thanks Dana It's basically a giant ventilated crate made out of durable materials that fits in the bed of a pickup for the purpose of transporting dogs from point a to point b in a safe and responsible manner. Sent from my iPhone Thanks! I was concerned it was something used in dog fighting .... Oh no ma'am not at all. Dog boxes are very commonly used especially by folks who hunt with dogs, (hog hunters, deer hunters, coon hunters, etc). People that travel to sanctioned dog shows often will utilize a dog box as well. It's a very safe means of transportation for the dogs. Have a great evening! Sent from my iPhone Thank you so much for taking the time to explain it to me! You made me feel a lot better... :)) Take care! Title: Re: Oh boy.....

Title: Re: Oh boy..... Post by: barlow on May 05, 2014, 05:35:49 pm Maybe she thought it was like a BOXing ring . . for dogs that are used for BOXing. The best breed for that would probably be . . you guessed it . . BOXers.

Post by: grittydog on May 05, 2014, 07:07:04 pm You should have told her it was a fighting ring for Chihuahuas. That you were so stupid you would sell illegal stuff on craigslist to nosy people like her. Stupid people deserve stupid replies.

You'd think she'd care more about the pit puppy peddlers on craigslist rather than what a dog box is, or use the internet and figure it out herself. At least you were cool with her. Title: Re: Oh boy..... Post by: MrsLouisianaHogDog on May 06, 2014, 06:46:47 pm Well with us living here in the south especially.....with almost every other truck around having a dog box in it....I was pretty surprised she had no idea what one was. Yeah I have dealt with enough idiots, ignorant, mis-informed people over the years. I have mastered how to be tactful, and diplomatic in my responses to thing like this. There are folks that you can explain things to in the nicest way possible, and it still won't matter, but there are the few that when you speak to them politely and well spoken, you can actually get through to them. She was probably surprised at how well spoken I was lmao.
