		<description>2-7-12, safe to say (I think) that the Martyr is gone.  I wanted to mention to said Martyr that I have close to 20K in medical bills for Emma.  I think it is safe to say that Linda has NO IDEA about what it takes to deal with idiot breeders.  20K....are you even kidding me?  Yes, I can afford it.  Obviously, Emma&#039;s other litter mates could not.  They are all dead now.  Who knew that she would be the one that survived.  She was little first born.  That girl has some will to survive.  With her will and my money she did!  ;</description>

This is just a suggestion.  Please read the entire sub-blog posting before you comment.  It will open your eyes. Thanks.  Some folks fly off the handle and make comments that make them look totally stupid.  I am willing to discuss intelligent comments.  Thank you!  Cat Woman!</description>

		<description>Linda, give me a break.  Now you play the martyr?  So typical of someone who does not have the facts.  Why bother with all of the worrisome facts when they are presented to said martyr?  Interestingly, you have no number that refers to reading the entire subblog posting or the answers to any of my questions. Howl can I rationally communicate with someone who is so ill informed? Too much reading material?  Again, typical of someone like you, (see number 2.).  Too funny.....now you are a grammar teacher?  I should have known from all of the semicolons.  LOL.  (see number 2.).  When all else fails correct grammar.  So, it is OK for you to insult me?  What a hypocrite!  A martyr and a hypocrite!  Now that is some combination.  You came back to comment because you just couldn&#039;t stand it could you?  You should have stayed put in your pious, martyr tower editing 3rd grade grammar papers. Don&#039;t forget to toss in a healthy dose of casting shame.  Honey, we do not need your phoney good wishes. Did you really think you could come to my blog and spew your verbal vomit all over me?  (see number 2.).  Oh, and regarding number 4., Emma is a family member, not a pet.  

Thank Gawd this is the end of you.  Now go hold hands with the Nances.  

P.S. - ROFLMAO - Hard to believe a hypocrite.</description>

		<description>1. Thank you for &quot;your approval&quot; and for presenting the other side of the story for others to see.
2. Sorry you feel the need to insult my person and intelligence.
3.  My heart is with Emma; I can tell by her picture she is so very sweet; she truly deserves all your love and attention; I am so thankful she gets it.
3.  That would be &quot;with whom&quot; is nice to your face, not &quot;with who.&quot;
4.  In your words, &quot;not many folds comment,&quot;because the more one reads, the more one realizes they are communicating with a vendictive, sorrowful  person, and there is no rationale for such communication.   This will be the end for me.  I truly wish you luck with your precious pet.
P. S. I don&#039;t drink wine, or anything else.</description>

		<description>Linda - Thank you for your comments/opinions.  I approve all comments that are sent in.  I actually live to reply to the uninformed like you.  It&#039;s my blog Linda.  If you want to start a blog and honor the Nances I suggest you do so.  Surprise, surprise....we have different opinions of the Nances, (I actually have facts).  I used to feel like you about them until they threw me under the bus.  I have a feeling you have not read this entire sub-blog-posting because you certainly are not commenting on the &lt;strong&gt;FACTS! &lt;/strong&gt; You are so full of shit and I can see why you are friends with those awful people.  Your comments are woefully misguided and again, anyone can tell you have not read this entire sub-blog posting.  What?  Too much over your head?  Sure sounds like it.  Linda, let me explain something very simple to you.  It is not slander when you tell the truth and have the facts to back it up.  Get it?  *wha wha*  You may have learned that had you bothered to read this entire sub-blog posting.  Earth to Linda!

Birds of a feather flock together and you and the many, *cough*, others can skip down the primrose path with the Nances.  Have at it honey.  Build a shrine for all I care.  

Remember Linda, this is &lt;strong&gt;MY BLOG&lt;/strong&gt;.  My place on the internet!  I informed Richard and Sharon I would be reporting on my hounds and specifically them as breeders.  They both looked at me (like a rube) and Sharon patted my arm and said, &lt;em&gt;&quot;That&#039;s nice honey, now where in KY do you live?&quot;&lt;/em&gt;  

You were one of the lucky folks Linda.  You came after I shined the light of &lt;strong&gt;SHAME&lt;/strong&gt; in the face of this &lt;strong&gt;GREEDER&lt;/strong&gt;.  They were forced to come clean.  &lt;strong&gt;WHAT PART OF THAT DON&#039;T YOU GET?&lt;/strong&gt;  Go back darlin&#039; and read the entire sub-blog posting.  I know it&#039;s hard for someone to take the time necessary to do that but give it a shot.  Take the blinders off Linda! You cannot possibly comment here without reading everything.  It makes you look foolish.   

Again, I have no idea what you are talking about when you say, 

&lt;em&gt;&quot;They do not have a “puppy mill,” as you have led many to believe-having them send you words of encouragement and wonder for you braveness; you must be a human being in dyer need of attention.&quot; &lt;/em&gt;
 
WTF are you trying to say?  Was the box wine running out?   Wonder for my braveness?  Let me tell you sweet heart who is in dyer need of attention.  Emma, and the others like her that came from this breeding experiment.  What I know, and have not reported would curl your plump toes.  I publish all comments regarding this issue.  Good and Bad.  Not many folks comment because they know I am right.  I get plenty of high fives via private e-mails but those folks don&#039;t want their comments published.  They have to live in the show world with the Nances.  Be careful with who is nice to your face Linda because they often have a different opinion of you as the door is hitting you on the ass.  Wow, you didn&#039;t have long to wait did you?  Here is your ill informed, stupid comment for the world to see.  I will stick to helping the voiceless, like Emma, have a voice Linda.  You stick to kissing the Nances asses.  Your devotion to the Nances will not throw me off of my path.  Emma and I will keep that light brightly shining.  We have helped more folks in a few short years than folks like you will in a life time.  Lastly, I suggest you do your homework before you start throwing your semicolons around in my neck of the woods.  Now scurry back to the Nances for more hero worship.  Cat Woman

P.S. Keep checking back because I will be opening the forum soon.  I shut it down for awhile.  My views over there would make your head and plump toes explode if you thought this was bad.  

P.P.S -  FYI, I live to reply to the uninformed like you poor Linda.  

Oh, as part of your homework....watch this video of Emma.

Hey Linda!  Here is some more reading for you...

Research and learning from it makes informed comments.  Honestly!

		<description>I have had the most wonderful experiences of my life with the beautiful dogs I have gotten form Richard and Sharon Nance. I am so very sorry to hear about your your sweet angel, no puppy should have to endure that; we would have loved her just the same and done all in our power to make her life as good as it possibly could be with that dread disease, just as millions of people do when their human family members fall into a disease that no one could predict would happen.  It is just ashamed that through all you did for your dog, you are demeaning her existence with all this hatred and slander. Shame on you.  I and the many owners I know who received puppies from Bobac, know them to be the best people in the world-willing to do anything for the love of their dogs. I have been with them many time, and it is evident that they care for their dogs more than anything else in the world. It is such a shame for someone with grieving in their heart to show such malice toward them. They do not have a &quot;puppy mill,&quot; as you have led many to believe-having them send you words of encouragement and wonder for you braveness; you must be a human being in dyer need of attention.  Shall we see a display of your braveness by publishing my comments along with the others on this site so your readers can see both sides of the people you hate so desperately:  I&#039;ll be waiting.  In the meantime, there are many areas of human suffering one might consider to actually contribute time and effort to help others. Sincerely and honestly,   Linda Martinsen</description>

		<description>I have a 2 1/2 year old Basset with glaucoma.  We have already had 1 eye removed and took her in yesterday for a check of her good eye.  The pressure has risen 1 degree (I&#039;m not sure how much that is?)  They recommended we start drops on the remaining eye, but we aren&#039;t sure how long that will hold off removing the second eye.
I haven&#039;t read through your entire blog YET, but I will - I&#039;m hoping you have good advice and ideas.
We did call the breeder when she lost her first eye in March of this year at 2 years old.  The &quot;breeder&quot; is a young girl who did not even know Bassets were prone to this.  I advised her not to breed the dog again, but can only hope she will follow that advice.</description>
