| I repeat it is not the size of the dog but the behavior and the owners who are at fault. Nobody should have the right to keep a pet of any size that is a nuisance or danger to any owners. Concentrate on the behavior and if necessry get rid of the pet whether 9 pounds or 100. |

Kathleen I understand your frustration but unfortunately the road ahead is not an easy one, there is no magic fix. I have posted your options under my take of Ohio's condo law; other than suing them your only option is to keep bringing it up as Robert suggested. If you can get your fellow dog owners that are complying with the covenant and non dog owners as well to join you it will be easier. If they still will not enforce the covenant then it is time to vote them out and replace them with members who are willing to enforce them.
The behavior you posted is IMO against the law and you should involve the police and or your local Game Warden / Animal Control Officer to make sure a paper trail of this dog's aggressive behavior and its owners apparent negligence exists. |

To all,
Can I politely suggest that this animal issue has been beat to death, for about the hundredth time. We are trying to attract new readers to this site.
Ok, I know my posts are too long, and believe me I try to shorten them and will try harder. |

There’s some empty space on the advert at the top of the home page beside the smiling couple. Maybe we could have a blinking warning sign reading NO FUN ALLOWED ON THIS SITE!
My take: I enjoy reading posts that sometimes veer off the formalities. I like the personalities they reveal. I appreciate the lightness they provide to break up the humdrum. In fact, I’ve wondered why there isn’t something like a Free For All thread where the regulars could post thoughts not related to a specific topic.
For instance, someone recently posted on the Social Committee thread about hearing voices and ogling young women in the produce department. Fine with me. I could identify with that, and it make me laugh.
If I’m going to volunteer my time (hopefully) helping others, I require a funness factor. I’ll add that on NPR today, it was noted vet bills for dog owners average over $400 a year while those for cat owners are less than half that amount. And if you must get a dog, get a mutt, as that avoids inbred ailments common to many “pure breads.” What happened to the days when you’d pay 5 clams for a rabies shot once a year and that was it?
That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.

| Robert just as you are free to change the channel if there is something on TV that you don't like, there are over 5000 different threads here for your posting pleasure. If you are tired of a particular thread may I suggest that you simply stop reading and / or posting to it. |

Hogwash Glen,
You want to pick a fight, but not with me you won't. I gave a reason for wanting to move on, I didn't give an order, I gave a good reason. Honestly, how many people do you think consider this endless pro/con animal conflict subject provides them with what they are looking for on a site like this. Search the file on this subject. I also know that most of what we take about is repetitive stuff that would drive some people to tears. This site was more active and informative a year ago I am willng to say. It would probably hurt us all a little if we were to find out why.
It will do no good to post a reply to me on this thread, I will not read it, You had your say, Ive had mine. |

Robert,
The problem with us old folks is that we remember alot of stuff, sometimes too much. It clutters up all of our mental storage space. I agree with you that we will always kick the "pet issue" to death. It has been a subject since day 1 and I venture to say that it will rear it's ugly head again in a couple of months.
People are passionate about their pets--me my Great Dane and you--your kitty. So it is fun to read some of the light hearted storys about them. But enough is finally enough because we are not getting anywhere with this anymore. So lets just find some sunject that we can really sink our teeth into. I'll look to see if I can start something much more controversial. |
