vickles, I usually carry pepper spray or vinigar with me, but I wouldn't want to squirt pepper spray at another dog unless it was really dire. I may overreact and then I'd feel terrible. Especially if the owner is there. But then you know if you don't over react you may have a dead dog. It's fine if the owner isn't around and you have no choice, but I guess if the owner is around I feel they should try something too! "He is your friend, your partner, your defender,your dog. You are his life, his love, his leader. He will be yours, faithful and true to the last beat of his heart. You owe it to him to be worthy of such devotion." Unknown

PS. I will try looking up that on google too. Thanks. "He is your friend, your partner, your defender,your dog. You are his life, his love, his leader. He will be yours, faithful and true to the last beat of his heart. You owe it to him to be worthy of such devotion." Unknown

I see your post now! OMG how awful for your two chows! I remember my dad breaking up dog fights with the water hose or a bucket of water. The thing is, that stuff has to be handy in a moments notice, which as you know it rarely is. Thanks for the advice about not messing with the heads. I guess this guy at the dog park knew his dog (he didn't seem like an idiot) but if that had been my dog ripping into another I would have taken my leash and butted her over the head or kicked her or ANYTHING to get her off! I just wouldn't have stood there and watched. But everything is okay, it just got me thinking. And yes, it is horrible to watch! "He is your friend, your partner, your defender,your dog. You are his life, his love, his leader. He will be yours, faithful and true to the last beat of his heart. You owe it to him to be worthy of such devotion." Unknown

I had an incident with Nico this morning at the dog park, not serious, everything was fine, but it got me wondering how one goes about breaking up a dog fight. What happened with Nico is she wanted to play with another rottweiler (Angel) who was playing fetch in the water with her owner (a real nice guy) Angel's owner said that's fine, Nico can try to play with Angel if she wants. Well Nico tried to take the stick away from Angel and Angel ripped into her like she was going to give Nico a new butthole. I almost had a damn heart attack. But Angel's dad said it's okay, Angel will back off. Well she did..after a minute...(and Nico was trying to get away!) And he finally yelled at Angel after he saw I was near having a stroke from yelling..and the groundrules were established. Do not try to take Angels stick away. Okay, that was fine. They were still able to play in the same spot without incident for another hour. Nico played with another dog and Angel played with her owner. This was a bit different cause Nico wasn't fighting back, even though she outweighed the other female by 20 lbs easy. So Nico just backed off with her little stubble between her legs. But I was wondering, what if an out and out dogfight occours, are there ways to break it up? I heard that you should pull your dogs legs back, even though you may get bit I wouldn't mind getting bit by my own dog. But in this case it was Angel who was the aggresor and I aint pulling someone elses dogs legs back. I don't want to put this on a dog board cause they'll start lecturing me on the evils of dog parks and what a stupid owner I am for bringing her to one which I don't agree with. We have a great time at dog parks. It just got me wondering for future knowledge, it could happen anywhere, even if I'm walking her on a leash and another dog bolts from there yard. So I'd like to hear anyone who knows anything about breaking up a dog fight.What's best to do? PS. Everybody who was watching felt sorry for little Nico and petted her after that.

You can enjoy other peoples company without being "likeminded" on beliefs and lifestyle. You can enjoy other peoples company without figuring out a way to "show them the truth." You can enjoy other peoples company without figuring out how to get them to listen to teaching tapes, or bring them to your fellowship. You can enjoy the company of REAL people again! Yahoo!

wyte they'll probably show up again. Sometimes it looks like my stuff disappeard and then "poof" it shows up again. It may just take a couple minutes to load or..who knows? On the eighth day, God created...Rottweilers...

JSN I'm working on it, Im finding the pic but it aint animating. But I will work on it! On the eighth day, God created...Rottweilers...

Yeah if you find out how to animate wallpaper I'd like to know too. I don't think you CAN animate wallpaper can you? Screensavers yes, but wallpaper??? I havent' seen it yet. On the eighth day, God created...Rottweilers...

Okay JustSayno. I totally understand. And I'd rather learn how to do it for myself too. After Steve! did it for me I started fooling around with it myself and was so happy when I finally got it somewhat! I admire your patience! I automatically assume everyone is impatient like me lol. But I plan on saving this thread so I can go over all this info myself when I have time. Great stuff here! On the eighth day, God created...Rottweilers...

JustSayNo not to butt in here, but maybe you could send Dovey the exact address in an email? The reason I say this is because when Steve! Was trying to help me with my rottie pic in my sig, I was having a hulluva time figuring it out myself. I finally just gave him my GS password so he could go in and do it himself. On the eighth day, God created...Rottweilers...

By the way, I'm not going to but in since JustsayNo is doing a superb job of explaining things(I'm learning a lot) but I just want to say dovey is more than welcome to use a website of mine. I've got the AOL stuff ya know? I can just throw the pic she wants on one of mine. I don't plan on changing AOL anytime soon. That way she can at least have her pic of her fireworks. Dovey look at the thread entitled fireworks, make sure you give it at least a couple minutes to load so they all show up. There may be something there you like.

wytdove I thought I lost you! LOL! Here you are! I'm so happy our wonderful GS'ers are helping you out. Now that I know where to find you I'll be back later. I have tons of stuff to do right now (having the living room painted tomorrow) I was looking for you in the fireworks thread! On the eighth day, God created...Rottweilers...

Hi wendy jo! Yes I live in Dupage county! I've lived in Chicago and Villa park too. I think I took PFAL around 79. When it hit it's all time high of 200 bucks. After 79 it seems like a LOT of people moved. I fellowshipped awhile in Elmhurst in fact after that, but it just wasn't the same. :(--> I remember going back around 85 I think, this guy named Bob Wassung? (I'm massacering his name probably) had a fellowship in Glen Ellen. He was a very nice man, but again, it didn't have the "feel" of that original Way home. I believe he got transfered shortly after that anyway. Boy people were really moving in those days ya know? Really good people too. But on the other hand I probably never would have met any of them if it hadn't of been for the Way sending them out here anyway. I suppose. On the eighth day, God created...Rottweilers...

Yeah, this is the one I was following. Continue the original before starting a new one. It makes it easier to follow. On the eighth day, God created...Rottweilers...

Rent the NEVERENDING STORY DAMNIT! And read the book. Greatest kids movie/book ever written Better than Mrs. Piggle Wiggle even. Well....almost. On the eighth day, God created...Rottweilers...

I haven't read any of the Potter books. I want to, but everytime I go to the local library to give them a peek they're checked out. I love childrens fantasy. I think it can be misused (any fantasy actually) but some of it is wonderful. The Neverending Story is my favorite. That's really not a childrens book though, though they made it into a very cultured Children's movie. (The first one that is) Let me add here (and please don't hit me over the head) I absolutely HATE most Disney films. (Mary Poppins was wonderfull though) Theyre so..so..forumlated. Yeah kids love books about magic, that's for sure. I know I did as a kid. On the eighth day, God created...Rottweilers...
