Thanks for bringing this to my attention. Pappy getting sleepy......but rest assured, it WONT happen again.
You're an f@cking little prick! I havn't been to any of these boy's NT trip or Tassie trip or whatever, have no intention to drive anyone's car. I know PP personally, 360C, RB etc, ask them if i ever ask if i can even sit in their car!! I don't pick a fight with anyone here, and I hardly insult anyone here too. but in your case, I'll make an f@cking exception!
You're breaking my heart PP you're breaking my heart!! i have to say Scud is a charismatic person and its you that i fall in love with. But you ditched me and RMV and now you have a younger Lame-nator. I still love you tho you know that right?
no, you're wrong, I'm not funny and i'm not nice. To you that is. to everyone else, its a different story.
Wow, another one who doesn't agree with me. Damn! You bit first, don't expect me to sit down and take it.
look little kid, you're entitle to your opinion, but becareful when you're express that opinion. you can agree with PP, that's fine, but no need to bring scud's wife into this. I find that very offensive just as PP would find whatever Scud said about him & his tassie experience very offensive. then you come around accuse me want to take the keys and drive scud's cars. WTF is that? I take pride in work hard and buy nice things, as well as be friends with people here (PP, RB, 360C whom I've met quite a few times) by being a nice and genuine person than sucking up to them. So you'd expect me to back with insults like that? Mate I'll bite like a satan's mastiff!
I regret bringing Scud's wife into this, I've expressed my regret and have apologised. I agree, we've all said a few things that we regret (except for PP, he never admits it ) Sorry for accusing, I was mistaken. No hard feelings to anyone, I was simply trying to insult people in a stupid manner.
alright, alright, out of my love for these ancient dogs. here is a few Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
the first one is my fav, cost about $40k each puppy. these are the finest Tibetan Mastiffs out of China. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
yes. They were used as guard dogs in ancient tibet to defend the entire village from wolves and snow leopad attacks. They rank the dogs by DNA testing every one of them, then a big process about their height (75cm+ from the back), the look of the tail, the head, and their coat color. Ratings are AAA, AA, A, B, C, D AAA dogs fully grown are close to a million US dollars, puppies are no less than 100k each. AA dogs are around 40k.
And if you've ever seen how 'valuable' dogs are treated in China, you'd never have anything to do with such a trade. Just take a look in the background of those photos... The dogs are treated solely as commodities and have a miserable life. BTW, back closer to the original topic of this thread, those who refer to Macquarie as 'a bank' thinking that means it will be fine in the long term should remember it isn't a 'bank' in the regulatory sense, it has no 'deposit base' and the biggest portion of its funds comes from money borrowed where? The good ol' USA, home of the credit crunch...
I have to disagree with you on that one Kerrari. I've personally went to some of the Dog homes in China, and they are treated the best of what the place can offer. You're quite correct that the back ground of some of the places you see looks poor and about to fall apart, and believe it or not, people live in those and they don't live much better than the dogs. The well off "Dog House" are very good, very similar to what you'll see in a good zoo actually. Some breeders with limited amount of dogs have them live in house. However due to the nature of these dogs, they are required to be leashed at all times. Trust me, many Chinese live more miserable life than these dogs.
