Dog Breeders Quotes

Antiques and Oriental rugs tell people that my mother may be a dog breeder who dropped out of Bryn Mawr, but she’s got power—because she’s got money.

Showing little regard for the animals’ historical working roles, health, temperament, or well-being, Victorian dog breeders raced to mold dramatic new shapes for their pets. Producing dogs in the same way one might produce widgets on an assembly line held tremendous appeal in an age of massive industrialization.

The Joy of Sex!—Elaine brought home that dreary tract one day, those tidings of comfort and joy by some Californicated Englishman, and we studied the ghastly pictures, the two hundred different positions. What a joyless book. That poor fucker the instructor-model, performing his gymnastic routines over and over, with slight variations, for three hundred pages, each and every time upon the same woman. No wonder he has that look on his soft hairy degenerate face of a bored he-dog hooked up on the street with an exhausted bitch, longing to leave but unable to extricate himself from what breeders call a “tie.” The woman in the book looks only slightly happier; somebody out of mercy should have emptied a bucket of ice water on the miserable couple. Technique, technique, technical engineering, curse of the modern world, debasing what should be a wild, free, spontaneous act of violent delight into an industrial procedure. Comfort’s treatise is a training manual, a workbook which might better have been entitled The Job of Sex.

Many people go to breeders to find a dog, and others to the pound, but sometimes, especially when it’s really meant to be, the right dog finds you.

What’s left for us to prize? I think it’s this: to do (and not do) what we were designed for. That’s the goal of all trades, all arts, and what each of them aims at: that the thing they create should do what it was designed to do. The nurseryman who cares for the vines, the horse trainer, the dog breeder—this is what they aim at. And teaching and education—what else are they trying to accomplish? So that’s what we should prize. Hold on to that, and you won’t be tempted to aim at anything else. And if you can’t stop prizing a lot of other things? Then you’ll never be free—free, independent, imperturbable. Because you’ll always be envious and jealous, afraid that people might come and take it all away from you. Plotting against those who have them—those things you prize. People who need those things are bound to be a mess—and bound to take out their frustrations on the gods. Whereas to respect your own mind—to prize it—will leave you satisfied with your own self, well integrated into your community and in tune with the gods as well—embracing what they allot you, and what they ordain.

In his contradictions he was as much an enigma as the country itself: a religious devotee out of spite at the soullessness of men who thought of nothing but dogs and sheep, a scientific breeder of sheep because of his contempt for sheep, the Icelandic pastor of a thousand years' folk-stories, his presence alone was a comfortable reassurance that all was as it should be.

animals are often fed mechanically, so their only human contact comes, and this is only in the case of breeder dogs, in the form of artificial insemination and, nine weeks later, a pair of hands snatching babies away. If Dante

Breeders say you always look for the great one you lost. You watch every puppy in case he’s the one. I will. I lost a great one. But I had him. And I’ll recognize him. I cry for Ben, not because I lost him, but because he had to leave and I know how much he wanted to stay with me.

Me and Cassie are glad you showed,” Deacon Gates said to him. “You put a pink bow on your dog,” Nick replied. “I didn’t,” Deacon returned. “Your woman put a pink bow on your dog,” Nick said then turned to look at the man at his side. “And that dog is a German shepherd. It’s a wonder every shepherd breeder in North America isn’t rushin’ this location to put a gun to your head to demand payback for that dog’s dignity.

I don’t really like tiny dogs. I can get to know and respect individual small dogs, but as a concept, they generally bum me out. I guess it’s because I know human beings had a hand in their breeding and I believe that to be wrong. Let dogs fuck each other (or not, if you spay/neuter them), and stay out of the way. Don’t decide which dogs should fuck each other so that you can wind up with a litter of miserable, shivering little abominations that will fit in a cereal bowl when fully grown. Plus, do you watch the dogs fuck each other and/or assist them? Psychos. Do you punish them if they refuse? Anyway, it’s clear my issue is with the dog breeders themselves more than their cursed progeny, but I can’t help but be reminded of their origin when I hear some yappy little shitbox barking at the heavens, knowing deep inside God has forgotten about it.

In 1920, a resident of Navarre, Ohio, reported that the town’s mayor had shot and killed his dachshund “for being German.” The dogs were “completely driven off the streets” in Cincinnati. Londoners feared walking their dachshunds in public, lest the animals be stoned to death. Reports of children beating, kicking, and “siccing” other dogs on dachshunds throughout England and the United States were common, and AKC registrations of dachshunds dropped to the low double digits, even as breeders scrambled to rename them “liberty hounds” and “liberty pups.

More to the point, one cannot understand The Holocaust without understanding the intentions, ideology, and mechanisms that were put in place in 1933. The eugenics movement may have come to a catastrophic crescendo with the Hitler regime, but the political movement, the world-view, the ideology, and the science that aspired to breed humans like prized horses began almost 100 years earlier. More poignantly, the ideology and those legal and governmental mechanisms of a eugenic world-view inevitably lead back to the British and American counterparts that Hitler’s scientists collaborated with. Posterity must gain understanding of the players that made eugenics a respectable scientific and political movement, as Hitler’s regime was able to evade wholesale condemnation in those critical years between 1933 and 1943 precisely because eugenics had gained international acceptance. As this book will evidence, Hitler’s infamous 1933 laws mimicked those already in place in the United States, Britain, Norway, Sweden, Finland, and Canada. So what is this scientific and political movement that for 100 years aspired to breed humans like dogs or horses? Eugenics is quite literally, as defined by its principal proponents, an attempt at “directing evolution” by controlling any aspect of human existence that affects human heredity. From its onset, Francis Galton, the cousin of Charles Darwin and the man credited with the creation of the science of eugenics, knew that the cause of eugenics had to be observed with religious fervor and dedication. As the quote on the opening pages of this book illustrates, a eugenicist must “intrude, intrude, intrude.” A vigilant control over anything and everything that affects the gene pool is essential to eugenics. The policies could not allow for the individual to enjoy self-government or self-determination any more than a horse breeder can allow the animals to determine whom to breed with. One simply cannot breed humans like horses without imbuing the state with the level of control a farmer has over its livestock, not only controlling procreation, but also the diet, access to medical services, and living conditions.

Alexandra Horowitz’s book Inside of a Dog: What Dogs See, Smell, and Know should be required reading for anyone adopting a rescue dog or buying a dog from a breeder.

When you buy a pet-store puppy, you know nothing about the health or temperament of the parents. You have no connection to the breeder of the dog, no resource to go to if you have questions or problems a few months or years from now. But perhaps most important, when you buy a pet-store puppy, you contribute to the demand for puppy-mill-bred puppies, and add to the cycle of misery of mill-owned breeding dogs.

The United States military officially began using canines in World War I and by World War II more than four hundred scout dogs were taking part in combat patrols, finding and hunting the enemy. After Pearl Harbor, a group of dog breeders formed “Dogs for Defense,” with the goal of building a well-trained canine force in the event America went to war. Come Korea, roughly 1,500 canines performed guard duty with the Army while others joined patrols. During Vietnam, with its close-quarters combat in treacherous terrain and tropical climes, dogs were once again called into action: around four thousand joined patrols to hunt for weapons and enemies, and served duty on army bases, especially at night when soldiers were most vulnerable to attack. But many of the dogs that served alongside U.S. soldiers never made it home; some were euthanized and others abandoned in

I had imagined it this way: find a caring breeder, choose the perfect, healthy pup, frame the pedigree, and live happily ever after. I hadn’t planned on making a snap decision beside the road with giant dogs and dead deer and caffeinated truckers and ganja fields and boyish rangers and sweet gypsy eyes looking up at me, wondering when we’d be going home.

Mary, however in typical matter of fact fashion, does not see any conflict in her multiple roles. “You know, rescue people often ask why breeders keep breeding dogs when there are so many unwanted dogs that have to be put down every year. My answer is that responsible breeders produce the best puppies for a long and healthy life, creating an opportunity for a fabulous human/canine bond that is based on a breeds particular attributes.” Mary loves the breed and enjoys all the time she spends with them, but she also takes her role as a breeder very seriously. “Do not over produce, do health testing and breed to improve the overall quality of the dog,” she implores. “And educate a potential dog owner about your breed so that you and they can be sure the dog is right for them.” Mary Remer, in the essay 'What a Good Dog!

If you balk at the idea that dogs could be bred like pigs, I’m sorry to disabuse you. Dogs and pigs alike are treated as breeding livestock. The animals are made to have as many young as possible. The babies are taken away at a young age so that they can be sold and a new breeding cycle can begin. The animals never have real sex—that is, sex when and with whom they choose; rather, females are tied up so they can be mounted or, more often, they are artificially inseminated. In commercial breeding operations, and also in many small-scale or backyard breeding outfits, dogs are treated, like the sows and their piglets, as units of production and their sole function is to bear young for profit. All they do is bear one litter after another, until (usually at the age of four or five) they are spent. At which point they are no longer of value and are killed. Taken together with the spay/neuter picture, what we have is rather bizarre: an enormous population of eunuchs and virgins, and a small population of dogs who live their entire meagre existence as breeders, as part of a puppy production line.

The breeder had pressured the new owners into showing the promising young puppy. After McDuff’s first blue ribbon in Puppy Class, they were hooked but for the wrong reasons. Most people are involved in with dogs because they had that one special dog in their past. That special dog had been a friend, a confidant and fellow warrior against life’s travails. They now searched for that special dog once again but the search was for a memory which, like dreams, is vapor and shadow. Alice and Arnold needed the status of owning an American Kennel Club Champion. The man, more than the woman, had no particular love for the breed or dogs in general. McDuff had, in fact been a big disappointment because of the legendary Airedale WILL. The Airedale WILL compares to the proverbial immovable object meeting the irresistible force.

That tail! Was there ever such another? A man, they say, may wear his heart on his sleeve, certainly you wore yours on your tail. Other dogs I have known wagged their tails in pleasure or drew them close in fear or apology. Yours never drooped. You waved it like a banner and it was seldom that it was absolutely still. - A breeder told me that its carriage was too “gay” for showing, that your muzzle was not heavy enough, that your eyes were too large. He agreed, and well he might, that they were the most beautiful eyes he had ever seen in a dog’s head and that you had a “grand little body.” Out walking, the waving of that tail gave our progress the air of a procession. It was a hardened hater of dogs who had not a smile for you. You had none of the dourness and reserve attributed to your breed. From morning to night you craved friendliness, and you were almost as greedy for it as you were for food. Lying stretched asleep on the floor, you would seem suddenly to be conscious of something. Life stirring about you, perhaps—and you approved of life with your whole soul. Your tail would thud against the floor in ecstasy,

If just half the Americans already getting a dog went the shelter route, then statistically speaking, every cage in US animal control facilities could be emptied. Right now.

Fruits and veggies are an important part of your dog’s homemade diet. Dogs need more vegetables than fruit and tend to enjoy them more as well.

There are plenty of foods that you should avoid giving to your dog: Fatty meats Raisins Grapes Citrus fruits; these can cause an upset stomach All members of the garlic family, including onions and garlic, can damage red blood cells Mushrooms Rhubarb Chocolate Dairy products. The Schnoodle does not have the lactase needed to break down lactose Nuts (many dogs have nut allergies, and it’s a good idea to avoid them all together) Yeast dough. This causes excess gas to develop Salts and salty items. These can cause sodium poisoning in some cases

Intelligence in dogs, like in people, is usually hereditary, meaning that Schnoodles are excellent or above-average regarding how they can handle new commands or how they can solve problems.

In dogs, high intelligence doesn’t always mean the dog is easy to train. Some of the dogs at the bottom of Mr. Coren’s list are smart; they are simply headstrong and independent and do not take commands from people easily.

First off is food. Nearly everyone is on a budget these days; therefore, it might be tempting to settle for a cheap brand of dog food that you can buy in bulk to cut costs. But, to keep your Schnoodle healthy, you must buy a high-quality dog food that’s low on fillers and additives yet high in protein.

his teeth and gums, and vets generally recommend dry food for good oral hygiene. Dry food is generally higher in carbohydrates than canned dog food. Carbs are good for your Schnoodle’s health, as long as it’s not eaten in excess.

The good news is that Schnoodles, like many hybrid breeds, are generally healthy. The problem with many purebred dogs is a lack of ‘new blood’, so to speak, in their gene pools,

hormones. This, in turn, causes them to age quicker. The metabolic rates in larger dogs tend to decline faster than smaller dogs as they grow older, leading to obesity—which in turn can cause organ strain, heart disease, and cancer. The bones in a larger dog can become weaker over time and more prone to fractures than smaller dogs. A broken bone can lead to infection and the weakening of the immune system. Cellular reproduction rates are spread out more in smaller Schnoodles than larger ones. It is easier for a larger dog to grow quickly. This causes the dog’s cellular reproduction rate to wear out as they grow older.

Low-quality food, aka ‘supermarket food’ is the white bread of the dog food world. Most of the time it barely meets the already shockingly low standards for animal

Imagine how miserable you would be eating nothing but low-quality food. A good diet is not only vital for good health, but also for morale. I’ve seen a world of difference in dogs before simply by switching their food. High-quality dog food is made from only the best ingredients, is low on fillers, and are often packed with vitamins that your Schnoodle needs for healthy growth and development. As a bonus, dogs love the taste!

low-quality food from high-quality food? First, never shop for your dog’s food at a supermarket. Always go to a pet store. Second, read the list of ingredients carefully. Avoid anything that contains a high amount of fillers such as corn meal.

consult your vet before you choose a brand of dog food, and you can always ask the pet store manager or clerks for more information when buying dog food. Most of them are well-informed and can direct you to a certain brand of dog food if you’re having trouble deciding what to buy.

your Schnoodle is a puppy under the age of six months, you’ll need to feed him more often; three meals a day, in the morning, around noon, and at night, will suffice. He’s still a baby, after all, and his growing body demands more energy than an adult dog. Make sure that his food is small enough for him to chew and that he has no difficulty eating. Once his milk teeth strengthen, he won’t have too much trouble chewing regular dog food, but you should still provide him with a dog food that’s specially formulated for puppies, at least until he’s six months old.

Contrary to everything nursery rhymes have ever taught us, never give your dog a bone; it can splinter, and shards can lodge in the throat or stomach. Make sure that you wash all fruits and vegetables thoroughly before you feed them to your Schnoodle.

sheer boredom! Just make sure whatever toys you give him are safe for dogs; avoid rawhide and stuffed animals intended for children. Rawhide can be very harmful to smaller dogs, and stuffed animals have small pieces, like plastic eyes and synthetic filling, which can be swallowed.

There’s good news. However, Schnoodles are relatively easy dogs to care for. They’re gentle, intelligent, and loyal—perfect for first-time dog owners, families with children, single people, and just about anyone willing to open up their hearts and their homes to one of these shaggy, gorgeous dogs!

One of the Schnoodle’s best traits is its intelligence. The Schnoodle is an incredibly smart dog, which makes it easy to train. Who says that dogs can’t be both cute and smart? The Schnoodle is so smart because it is bred from two of the most intelligent dog breeds in the world: the Schnauzer and the Poodle. In Stanley Coren’s famed book, The Intelligence of Dogs, the author gathered information and performed tests to rank different breeds of dogs regarding their intelligence. Over time, Mr. Coren’s findings became more or less commonly accepted by most breeders, trainers, and dog enthusiasts as a viable tool to measure dog intelligence.

You should bathe your Schnoodle once a week; any more than that and his skin might dry out and become flaky and itchy. Choose a high-quality doggy shampoo; I prefer shampoos that are oatmeal-based as they smell great and are terrific for dogs with sensitive skin or dogs that are prone to itchiness.

You need to make sure the nails are trimmed on a weekly basis. If left unchecked, the nails will start to curl up and might impair his ability to walk. Purchase a dog nail trimmer with a curved, angled design and an attached nail guard that will help prevent you from cutting off too much of the nail at a time. Examine your Schnoodle’s nails and identify the ‘quick,' which is a blood vessel that runs through the nail. Always be sure to cut above the quick; be careful not to cut it.

Start by trimming the hair around the Schnoodle’s eyes every week. Like most dogs, Schnoodles are prone to tear stains on the coat around the eyes. Not only is this unsightly, but it can also attract bacteria to his eyes.

Every day, take a cotton ball and dip it into warm water. Use it to gently clean around his eyes to get rid of eye discharge and keep the tear stains from setting in. Check your dog’s eyes regularly to see that they are clear. If you see any cloudy spots, fluid deposits, redness, or irritation, consult your veterinarian. Ear Care Trim the hair around your Schnoodle’s ears every week. You must hold the hair from its end while you

I’ve tested half of them. And of the number I’ve tested I have disqualified one pit bull because of aggressive tendencies. They have done extremely well. They have a good temperament. They are very good with children.” It can even be argued that the same traits that make the pit bull so aggressive toward other dogs are what make it so nice to humans. “There are a lot of pit bulls these days who are licensed therapy dogs,” the writer Vicki Hearne points out. “Their stability and resoluteness make them excellent for work with people who might not like a more bouncy, flibbertigibbet sort of dog. When pit bulls set out to provide comfort, they are as resolute as they are when they fight, but what they are resolute about is being gentle. And, because they are fearless, they can be gentle with anybody.” Then which are the pit bulls that get into trouble? “The ones that the legislation is geared toward have aggressive tendencies that are either bred in by the breeder, trained in by the trainer, or reinforced in by the owner,” Herkstroeter says. A mean pit bull is a dog that has been turned mean, by selective breeding, by being cross-bred with a bigger, human-aggressive breed like German shepherds or Rottweilers, or by being conditioned in such a way that it begins to express hostility to human beings. A pit bull is dangerous to people, then, not to the extent that it expresses its essential pit bull-ness but to the extent that it deviates from it. A pit-bull ban is a generalization about a generalization about a trait that is not, in fact, general. That’s a category problem. 4.

The Schnoodle may be a ‘mix’, but he has all of the dignity, poise, and grace of a purebred dog!

Schnoodles are, as the name suggests, a cross between a Schnauzer and a Poodle. It is one of the most popular hybrid breeds, due to its easygoing nature, friendly temperament, and high intelligence. Schnoodles are, for the most part, very easy to train (a genetic gift from the Poodle, whose intelligence and trainability has made it a favorite amongst dog owners for hundreds of years). Despite having a long coat, they don’t shed much and are hypoallergenic, like their Poodle parents. Their slightly curly hair comes in a wide variety of colors—white, black, gray, silver, tan, apricot, gold, and every shade in between!

most popular dogs in the world! Schnoodles inherit the Poodle’s curly coat, remarkably high intelligence, and easygoing nature. For the most part, Schnauzers and Poodles are bred within their weight classes (Miniature Schnauzer with Toy Poodle, etc.), creating three different types of Schnoodles;

(Note: As with most dog breeds, males tend to be bigger than females; therefore, if you’re looking for a slightly smaller Schnoodle, I would recommend choosing a female dog)

Rottweilers are one of the breeds coming under attack as vicious dogs. Honcho himself is “real good with kids.” Well, all breeders say that about their favorite dogs, but Honcho’s soundness has been tested. “Honcho had a bit of a rough time. He’s been teased by kids, but he came through that and still really likes kids. Some other dogs go through that, well, they’ll just hang back when kids come over, but Honcho introduces himself to new kids on the block. When my sixyear-old, Adam, goes outside, I have him take Honcho. Then I know he’ll be safe.

In the late 1990s, breeders began going overboard on type, which lead to a physically more degenerate dog.
