Got my Rotts pedigree today... General Chat

Hi Dougie here.
As you are aware We love our dogs and as such Will be glad to Buy this pup back.
Shona is very upset,so please can you give it consideration.

can you please pm me your phone number

this would make him litter brother to tikka on the forum,
I cant get hold of richard as of yet, im livid that he sold a pup to someone who would allow him to be treated like this, form the previous threads about him being taken out with 15 year old lads and stuff, encouraged to bite and so on, im just devistated,

Mr ross having a good history in labs I had thought better of him, he even had a bob at crufts... just goes to show you cant trust anyone.

It would certainly seem that way Shona, shame on him. I hope the situation resolves itself and you can come to an agreement. Can I just say how lovely it is to see a stud dog owner taking such an interest in their pups, good on you!!!!

What she said.

Hugs Shona, no wonder you are devastated. We all know how you feel about your dogs xxxx

I appreciate the commtiment from both of you with pups from your lines, Im not entirely sure you need to be so worried at this point. If I was you I would probably be more interested in what went wrong with the original owners and Mr Ross (who ever he is?) and why it wasnt resolved before now. I wrote what I was told about why the orignal owners bought him and the rest of his story which is far worse than him with us having been in training, well fed and happy.

You guys will know more about where and when he was conceived and who to talk to (presumably Mr Ross) than I do, for us he is a fine dog with great aptitude for security work, that doesnt like to travel

Take some time to find out what you can/need to. Be good to know if you can verify his origins?

Yip from here too.

No wonder he has such a good temprament, shame, a terrible shame thatit seems to have been abused

Just to add, if I can help with any info via PM to help clear up things, so you know what has been going on. Then im happy to

What a shame. Hugs Shona, you must be feeling awful. Callum, I think it is the idea that the dog has been in a bad home and treated in a bad way prior to him going to you that Shona finds so upsetting. Something went horribly wrong in the homing of this dog.I feel for both of you in this situation.

FWIW
I think that this dog is in a good place with Callum, after seeing what effort he put in with Dougal the staffie rescue, I think he is in good hands for the moment.

The good thing I suppose is that you now know about it shona so can do something about the person who sold him/bred him.
he is very handsome..so no wonder he is related to the gorgeous vinnie
dani

thinking of you at this awful time shona.... hope all is resolved without to much heartbreak xxx:-(

Thank you both, this is how we see it from our POV.

how many homes has he had?

Sorry, I should also have posted that it is a blessing that he is now safe with you

We are his 3rd. The orignal owners had him until he was around 1yr old. The woman we got him from took him on to rehome him so he wasnt kept outdoors etc (Her story), she had him til we took him.

np, ty

but there is a possibility you will hand him on if his training doesnt work out, I have to say if hes anything like his father you may find hes not cut out for the work,

can we make some arrangement for him to come back to me if this is the case,

im gutted, there are still two pups from this litter I have no details for,
I found tikka by chance, I had baggered Mr Ross for long and weary about who got the pups and for him to give me the details, to no avail,

so in real terms these two pups could be anywhere, if his choice of home for this lad is anything to go by,
they could be sat in rescue somewhere,

I think thats an excellent suggestion Shona, I would think callum would be aggreeable? He did say that if it didnt work out he would rehome him. Callum?

It fails to amaze me why anyone would go the trouble and expense of breeding their bitch and then NOT home the pups responsibly.This example which we have here just goes to show why we need tighter legislation on breeding.Shona I applaud you for your responsible attitude both towards This dog, Tikka and all the other rotties you have helped rehome and rescue.

Callum,I think it is divine fate that Dogsey has brought you and Shona together. She has so much experience in the Rottie field and that of the security business. You could not have found a better person to advise and support. The fact that your Rottie is from her lines just strengthens that connection.

Im sorry I have been so off on here, Im just a bit gutted at the moment,

I trusted the chap that used vinnie at stud, he has a good rep in labs,

but to find out that one of those pups {poss more} have landed in the wrong homes and been passed around is a dog lovers worst nightmare, I dont use my dogs at stud willie nilly,
kaos has been used once, vinnie once
I never dreamed I would be in this sinario,
im so upset that the dog has had such a harsh start in life,
im trying to calm down a bit,
but if you all put yourself in my shoes, its horrid,
