I have not posted anything regarding politics here for quite some time.
Why
do you make that comment to me John rather than addressing the issue I
brought up........remaining consistent on what is acceptable and
unacceptable to post here.

The first two paragraphs addressed your comment new 'rules'.

I think you should be able post what you want to in an un-moderated NG
without being netcopped. If folks want to participate in the thread they
have that option. If folks do not want to participate in the thread they
have that option also.

What is upsetting some folks, including me, are the self appointed netcops
deciding what is appropriate or not appropriate to post here. I know I
may have been in that group late last month and realize now that it was
wrong.

What everyone should be focused on is stopping the name calling and flames
rather than deciding what can and cannot be posted here and telling folks
where to post it. That alone will make this NG a pleasure to visit.

I really did not ask any questions John so I was not looking for any answer
from you. But since you have some sort of answer why not post it here?

Pet Pig ????!!!!

Eisboch


Yeah. We got him as a frostbitten, tiny piglet. We raised him in the
house,
feeding him from a bottle until he got old enough to eat on his own. He
was
a great pet, would jump on the couch, sit in my lap, beg to be petted,
just
like a dog.

However, they grow up and get heavy. When it jumped on the couch and
put
its hoof through the cushion, it got banned from the couch. Once it hit
about 250lbs, it didn't fit on my lap anymore. It went to the butcher
shop,
Neither my mother nor my younger brothers would eat bacon unless they
saw
it come out of the store package!

Did you see Porky's picture? Cute little guy, huh?

You ate your pet!

The same thought crossed my mind when I read John's post.

How can you eat an animal you raised and loved as a pet?


Hunger.

Thanks. I don't question your circumstances at the time John, I just would
have a very hard time doing it.



That's the difference between those 'country boys' and us 'city folk'.


Here's another quandary.

One of our dogs, the bearded collie, had a nerve sheath tumor just above
the left front paw. We had it removed a couple weeks ago. It will reoccur,
and eventually require the amputation of the foreleg, at least.

I would prefer putting the dog to sleep as opposed to amputating the
foreleg. My wife would prefer amputation.

What to do....


Dogs get get along very easily with 3 legs, the can do walk, run, go up
and down stairs without any problem, unless he had other health issues,
I would never put him to sleep due to amputation.


That's the wife's approach. Before they get to that point, however, they
*must* go through a painful and difficult learning process, no?

No, the pain from the operation is minimized from painkillers. Walking
without a leg is very easy for them.

Let's not forget the rules of civilized behavior. No posting

I know it's a strain but try to keep up the good work.
