Regarding the show I sponsored honoring Starbound on 1/19, I put handlers on some of my entries in various breeds. For any breed where no one else is using a handler, I will remove my handlers. If my dogs win, I want them to have earned it. Remember, 1/19, be there or be square. |

Ambertal, it's quite common to put retired show dogs on old boy food. They're not being shown or sessioned so it's a good way to save money. That's beside the point though because people can play the game however they want, including putting retired dogs on old boy. |

Hi Bryerwood I suffer from the problem that I feel that these dogs are real dogs. Also that I may at some stage be inspected for the quality of my kennels and the dogs therein (I know I'm sick). So all my dogs are in good condition on good food.I even session dogs for sale. Yes we all play the way we wish to. |

Ambertal, what dog is that that is on crap food? I didn't mean to if I did. |

this post has been edited 2 time(s) Lisboa, I am a fellow sufferer. All mine including sale and retired dogs are on 1777 from birth to death. In any case, with finances as they are I'd be constantly over-funded and getting it drained off anyway. I also try to session sale pups as much as possible too. I view it as a matter of principle. Tarot: I think Ambertal is referring to "Starbound" the Afghan - he's on OB or was. ----- Last edited by gaylanstudio on 1/16/2019 7:40:41 PM |

Thanks Gaylan - glad I'm not the only one. |

I think I switched him to OB when he was about 300 days old. Considering that he lived to be 584 days old, seems like he did okay. Actually in some of my kennels I switch non showing males to OB to save some $. The bitches, as long as they are of breedable age, are on 1711 for their whole lives (unless I miss one). |
