lol. I was only joking about MaryH getting mad at me. I KNOW RPB supports responsible breeding. That's why I thought the blog was a little one-sided. We need a different word for the "I want my kids to see the miracle of birth" and the "my dog is so pretty I want her puppies" and the "hey I have a rednose; want to breed your dog to him?" person-who-perpetuates-more-pit-bulls. "Breeder" is not the right word. Just the same as we need a different word for what "game" means without reference to dogfighting.

I honestly tend to be more one-sided on the breeding thing when addressing the general public. Then I'll throw in an "RPB is not opposed to ethical breeding, here's a link to the Breeder COE for an example of what ethical means...." so maybe people who would have otherwise bristled soften up to my message a little more. I honestly hardly ever come across truly ethical breeders and I'm rapidly becoming jaded on this topic. As far as new word for unethical people, how about 'puppy pimp', cuz that's about what it amounts to  |

I know Em, jokin' here too.
I agree on the "game" term in reference to dogfighting.
I changed my term for aggression from "intolerance" and now to "reactivity" which is really what it is until some jerk turns it into action from reaction.
