Shaun Ellis, Again Controversial

thanks for that Mini!!

I couldn't help but chuckle when I read this and yes, IMO it is a good point.

i read once that SE went to one of the nis shows and everyone loved him. when did that change?

Thats ace Mini!

Gnasher.
SE has now got rid of 3 Ni types. The one he had from JK via NI rescue, he got rid of that without even telling JK or NI rescue, then he had these two and is niow getting rid of those, in fact he said he was having their mother too which is why she is advertised aswell!!

Can you imagine how these dogs may be affected by constantly switching environments when all the "experts" say how sensitive and nervy they can be and that family and balance and routine is imperitive to them. To me SE has no feelings or understanding of them.

Pmsl, I love it.

Very funny Mini ! But come on ! Please don't tell me you are comparing SE with the Yorkshire Ripper !

You know what I mean, you are being obtuse !!

I don't know, I am reserving judgement. I have vowed to my dying day that I will give Tai a good home. But, I am having to go back out to work full time. Should OH have to do likewise, we will need to rehome Tai. There is no way in a million years he would tolerate being Home Alone.

Never say never, is my motto. Everybody can have issues such that they need to do, or not do, something. We have no idea what was behind Shaun's thinking and reasoning, frankly, it is none of my business in any case. I will not sit as Judge and Jury until I know the facts.

I can only say ditto to my posting to Shona.

I was at that NI show, doglover. The point you make is a very good one.

I choose not to follow the herd, but to plough my own furrow. I will await the facts before I cast a stone. I hate all this bitching without anyone actually really KNOWING THE FACTS.

Dawn, do you KNOW all this to be absolute gospel. Do you know Shaun? Have you actually met him? Have you heard this from the horse's mouth? If it IS true, do you not consider for one moment there could be extenuating circumstances? I am not making excuses for anyone, I am just saying I don't like this continual witch hunt on here against SE. It is not fair. Unless any of us know him personally and know the facts, I think we should reserve judgement, don't you?

I thought he was a plank back then and still do..I thought they were even bigger planks to be worshipping him like they were and thought it was totally despicable that JK just handed him a dog..with no homecheck etc..She thought she would be envied..HA!

SO if you have to go back to work along with your OH you are going to rehome your dog??? Lots of people work full time and don't have to rehome their dogs.. Kennels, crates?? Dog walkers???

Rehoming would be the LAST thing ever on my mind..hell I would take my dog to work with me if I had too

Yes - several times - am I am deeply saddened to hear he has sent these dogs back to the breeder.

I didn't say that !! I said we would NEED to rehome him. Perhaps I should have dotted the i's and crossed the t's and gone on to say that I will do everything in my power to ensure that at least one of us is at home for Tai.

You do not know me, you do not know Tai. Believe me, this dog cannot be left Home Alone even for a few minutes. Were it totally essential that we were both out to work, we would have to seriously think about dog sitters at the very least.

IF it is true Tassle, none of us know this for a fact.

good post.

You are right I don't know Tai..but I am sure he could LEARN to be left alone..

I work nights and my OH works days..that way my dogs are never on their own for more than a few hours..

I would live off the state before rehoming my dogs..

No I've never met him but then I dont push my opinon down anyone's throat so what does it matter?
I have no interest in meeting him as I think he is a total tool and his tv "drama" just proved my point.
and returning his dogs well its not doing much to improve the public's opinion of him is it really especially as he tried so hard on tv to make people like him

But you are judging him when you don't even know him ! How do you know he is a total tool? People on tv present in a very different way than in real life. I find this attitude extraordinary. You are just believing all the tittle tattle and over the garden fence bollocks that's spouted about him !

I wasn't aware that he was trying to make people like him !!

No being on tv isn't to get people to like him is it?

No thats just money!!!!!! Id imagine hed not give a sh*t if people liked him or not, Perhaps he finally realised dogs ARENT wolves afterall & got bored & got back to his pretend pack of "real wolves"...sod the dogs!
