Thank you Musher. I understand a bit more. I thought you were jeering at us. I still don't like some of the way you worded certain things, and I don't agree with other things you said, but I do understand some of your points in how you are different from us, and that can make POV different. IMO is "in my opinion", by the way. I'm going to back off, because there very well be some misinterpretation going on. Like you said, we need to respect each other's opinions and choices... and I'm going to continue to try to do that.

I explained my use of the jealousy issue earlier.
I invite mjfromga to point out to me what she considers my sarcastic remarks so I would look at saying things differently.

"idiot"-I stated how I felt at that time and still do for believing the propaganda that was fed to me while I worked there. However, if anybody wishes to identify with me calling myself an idiot by personalizing and/or internalizing my points, staements etc, that is not my choice.
I didn't say commercial dog food is excrement. I said it contained excrement.
The reason I wished to leave is because I was embarrassed for being misunderstood. and yes much like I felt in school with all them self appointed high priests that ridiculed me for being stupid.
I still don't know what IMO is.
I agree with mj in that the "best place for" me is actually outside.
LOL(on me again) I was once told years ago that I would walk a different road off to the side. My road would be different than most people.
I think it's pretty cool that I would see this forum/thread bring more light to that. Isn't life amazing

wow. That's the first time Iv'e heard that word. I feel dumb actually having no idea what it means. It sounds cool though I'm going to search the dictionary then look at my translation dictionary and study this word.
As for 'why not feed raw", ... When I first saw it I translated it as "sure, why not, lets do it that way" and simply wished to converse with like minded people.
And if you are calling me an idiot for being on this post maybe think of "What if he's right? What if it does mean,"sure. why not. lets feed raw."? instead of being so sure that your interpretation is the correct interpretation.
Oh ...Wait>>>>you're a Dr. I'm just a dumb backwoods bushman who's interpretation is "wrong".
And yet, from what I see it is most likely structured the way it is to be open to interpretation as to invite as many people as possible to discuss Raw Feeding. Perhaps Dr Salter is the one acting pompously.

Ironic I would see this now after i posted a not dissimilar statement.
I feel now that at least one knows where I'm coming from.
That was good analogy. I can kinda relate although I'm not sure I really see it so much here. It might be that maybe I am just kinda immune? to it or desensitized? or maybe not consciously aware of it?. I'm actually going out to the chickencoop now.. geez!!! Now you got my gears turning.
Status quo exists everywhere eh............

I wish there had been more that came here to the land of my red skinned forebearers with your attitude.

Geez. I just saw this. Thank you.

You've said it in one, my friend.

For those who do not feed raw, I found this interesting article, for anybody with an epileptic dog and having an epileptic dog myself.

I had no idea that people would think condescending attitude from my posts. As I have said before (I'm guessing again) it's most likely open to interpretation which in turn is open to interpretation.
Well now, because I have needed to research a lot of the words I've seen and used, I've been on this darn computer (apparently on the wrong thread and using the wrong words and/or sentence/story line construction) for almost 6 hrs. Wow. in my world that's a huge waste of time. But the sun still shines and the wind still blows. Life waits for no-one but is still there for them to join in the dance. Life is beautiful.

oh my. I would have absolutely no idea on how to deal with that other than take him into the wilderness and set him free.
I admire people who exude the kind of patience it takes to care for pets like that. In my world I don't have that luxury.
Kudos & bouquets. I am going to cut and pate this ?addy? and do some research this eve sometime long after the sun goes down. It's all knowledge
Thankyou
