| In a free market economy an effective economic boycott makes a powerful statement. |
| Stud Dog Fads Erode Breed Health Perhaps the time has come for breeders and puppy purchasers to consider the health of the overall gene pool when making breeding and buying decisions. Overuse of a limited number of individual male dogs, regardless of their unquestionable contribution of desirable characteristics, eliminates the distribution of genetic combination from other individuals and will narrow the [read more] |

| Roll-Over on the Alpha Rollover When your dog presents you with inappropriate displays of dominant behavior, many behaviorists, trainers, and veterinarians will recommend the Alpha Rollover as a remedy.

Hi Tosamama,
the site was moved to a new server about a month ago. Everyting is workig fine. Only problem would be if you had the old cookie on your computer it would prevent you from loging in unless you cleared it. Cookies expire after 30 days. As far as I know you were not blocked. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Private Instant Message is back. The latest forum posts are at the top right. This method uses less database resource than the one in the center of the page. I am testing things - patience please.

I can't say, but of respect for the administration, it would seem to me that sincere recommendations should be made privately.
