Re: Re: What are you reading/cats NOW deer

And the reason that Cocker Spaniels are biters? They were victims of the "popularity" syndrome. A breed gets popular, and the "puppy mills" go into high gear. The indiscriminate breeding essentially promotes tendencies that should be discouraged - and it isn't just limited to tendencies like biting. There are breeds that may be susceptible to hip dysplasias or other health related problems - these could be bred out, but the greed of owners precludes it.

That's crazy. Then they need to outlaw about half the dog breeds out there. Cocker Spaniels are on the number one worst list for biting. What about pit bulls (my stepson has two that are gentle giants). I've said it before...and I'll say it again.....PEOPLE ARE STUPID.
