"the insurance companies are still going to rail you on the dog because of stigma and irresponsible owners in the past. "

Less money for cigars, no thanks. I will take a pointer, a boxer, or a weimaraner over a pb any day.

Stigma or not, I'd take a poodle over a pit bull, and I hate poodles.

You are not alone Cooper. I always spend Thanksgiving and Christmas alone.

WHY?

No worries, they just unfortunately have a bad rap that proceeds them and as such the few have ruined it for the whole. There are a number of other breeds of dogs out there that are actually far worse when it comes to causing damage and biting, problem is, no one cage fights Chihuahuas so you don't hear much about them.

RE #42

Standard poodles are fantastic dogs. Toys on the other hand, not so much...

no hand slaps. At least not yet...

I've had a 'red' standard poodle for 6 years, we got her at about 8 weeks.

I can't imagine a better dog.

Does not shed.

#19 You just made the list buddy! Ever see that Bruce Lee movie with Kareem Abdul-Jabar in it? You know, where Kareem whips a foot out and plants maybe a size 20 shoeprint on the chest of a pretty decent-sized guy?

Look down at your chest...now imagine the print of a size 14 Adidas there....a size 14 Adidas GREEN BAY PACKER shoe!

#31 Damn...you're making this too serious. I thought Thanksgiving was just a time to share food with family and newly-made friends, then days later, start inflicting new and exotic diseases on those new friends, shortly before taking their land by force, only so your progeny can then, some 400-500 years later decide whether you still want to "recognize" those former new friends.

Man...you make it all sound so damned morose and evil now.

:(P~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Worse than I thought! Stuck in North Dakota don'tchaknow.

You betcha!

So i drive to McDonalds to have a TG Thanksgiving dinner..... CLOSED!!! WTF!!!!

^

There's allways dairy queen

Waffle House....

Small town...... Went to the gas station and got a hotdog.

Did you get some mashed taters and gravy on it? Gotta make it feel like Thanksgiving somehow

There ya go - turkey hot dog and the bun counts for bread dressing......grab a bag of potato chips and a V-8 for the side dishes and you're set!

Wish you could be home with the family, Cooper...and not out with Rod making trouble...
