    Exactly, I would rather have her home with me where I can watch her and she would be more comfy.

    Yes, we had Kimber stay at the vets and we didn't know there would be no one on-site. When we picked her up the next day, the vet told us that when they opened up, they found Kimber had chewed her stitches out. That could've ended very, very badly.

Honestly this board is extremely mellow compared to how it used to be. I just do not see asking peoples for advice and then getting defensive about their decision makes any sense. You did not say people say what works best for them. You said "A lot of people here think they know the best way to do things and the thing about forums is that you can say whatever you want without consequences because it is all anonymous. The bad thing about that is...these people don't know you or your situation.

    A lot of people on here know exactly who I am as I am friends with them outside of this forum. Just take advice you like and move on from the rest. Sorry if I seem harsh, but you seem to start discussion and do not like the answers and get very defensive. From you asking people if you think your dog is ready to be uncrated and then telling people they do not know your dog and you do. Well yes, but then why are you asking the question if you know if he is ready or not. Same with prong collar question. People were giving advice on not going straight to a prong collar and you ended with well I already bought it so it doesnt matter now. I mean if you do not want to hear what peoples opinions are just google how to fit a prong collar or go to a store with a trainer and have them show you.


    I did not ask people for their opinion on whether or not I should buy a prong collar, I asked what size I should get. Therefore, I shouldn't be reprimanded for not liking their advice when I wasn't seeking it. If you have such an issue with me, PM me. Do not bring it up in a thread that has nothing to do with your issue. I gave the OP advice on doing what is best for HER. I understand that everyone here has an opinion but that doesn't mean that what works for you will work for her and that she shouldn't feel bad because of that. I have said this twice now, please get that through your head.

    Stop taking everything I say and making it an issue. I am entitled to my opinion just as you are yours. I'm not sure what your personal issue with me is but you appear to have one as you feel the need to argue with everything I say. Please stop or address me in a private manner.

    I have not made assumptions about anyone. You can't tell me you have an issue with me "not liking other people's opinions/advice" and then when I address that, you bring this issue up. Again, address me in private if you have an issue. This is not the place to have this conversation.

    I think at this point, most people feel this way about your posts...

    Are you freaking kidding me? Am I the only adult on this forum? Let's all get together like a bunch of high school girls and scratch each other's eyes out. I have asked several times for you all that feel the need to attack me to either privately discuss your issue with me or just STOP! STOP for the love of all that is holy! Let it go! I am entitled to MY opinions. I am allowed to ask questions. I do not have to agree with everyone's advice. Just like you are. I will not be bullied by you anymore. Leave me alone and stop hijacking other people's threads to do so. OR if you just cannot control your urge to tell me how wrong I am or what I do wrong at every turn, start a new thread dedicated to me and how you all have a problem with me. Knock yourselves out.
