So from good to bad with no signs hardly at all.

    My first Pitbull was perfectly fine one morning when I left for work. A few hours later my wife got home and tried to take him on a walk and he didn't want to go. I left work early and took him to the vet. Cancer. Tumor this time had ruptured and he was bleeding internally. Best case was $14K in care and the treatment and surgeries alone could kill him. So again from good to bad with no signs hardly at all. He was running around and acting as normal as could be before I left only to be down a few hours later with no obvious problem.

    You want to know how many times I went to get eggs and found a chicken dead? It was numerous. Fine one day and dead the next. Old age? Cancer? Something else? I don't know because it didn't tell me.

    I have had rabbits do the same way.

    In general animals do not always do a great job at showing illness or issues.

    So I will compare animals however I please from my experience with them.
    Dogs can whimper is what I'm getting at. Don't be silly. This whole board sounds like you're just trying to justify being a [bad] owner and co habbing.

    So here you are again putting words into my mouth.

    My comment was fine and if you read it you saw I said my actual argument against this was the space it requires to do well. So why are you trying to argue my point for me while coming at me like I said something wrong?

    Wow name calling. So nice of you.

    Yes, dogs can whimper. Did you know snakes can hiss and strike. Those are the first two things I usually notice when my snake is trying to tell me something.

    Going back to dogs they sure can whimper but in both of the personal cases I shared neither did.

    Your situation happened that way so it must be the same for everyone else right.

    I didn't say that at all. Was it hard to understand?

    The point was dogs do not always tell you something is wrong, nor do other animals.

    They certainly do sometimes but I didn't think that needed to be explained. I guess it did.


    And I am called a [bad] owner when I rushed my dog to the vet for care at the first sign of a problem. Wow!

    I took the day off work the first time and left work early on the second. I paid all the money needed to make them comfortable and make the best decision for them and I am a [bad] owner?

    What is your opinion of the place that turned my pitbull and I away because I was a large man with a gun....and a badge. They left my dog and I in the parking lot thinking care was on the way. When what they really did was call the police on me. They told the arriving officer they didn't care if I was a policer officer, they were refusing me service. So then I had to find another after hours vet and take him there. Yeah, but I am a [bad] owner.

    You know nothing about me or my level of care for my animals. Maybe you should check my gallery to see if my level of care is acceptable.

    Evidentially I am not an animal lover. Turns out I am a [bad] pet parent. All because my opinion is different than another's. Just another great example of the tolerance.....as long as you believe, say, and think what they want you to.
