Thanks, I appreciate it. They have no loyalty at all, and are always running off. Do you think an invisible fence will work with dogs of war?

Dogs of War need freedom! They need a big area to run, you cant fence them in!

Unbelieveable!!
So the people who actually take the time to write properly need more education than the ones who don't?

Yeah, because informal posting on a message board, which is basically the pub scenario for lazy asses who don;t go out socializing/people who work jobs with little free time, is the standard that we as a civilization should strive for by nit picking spelling and grammer about 3 topics up from where grown men buy star wars dolls and post pictures of them. I like to the presumption that a well worded law is better then the law itself.... Oh my, Orwell would of loved this thread.
Honestly, just think what could be accomplished if you guys put this energy into something truely worthwhile that could positively impact lives instead of just being a snooty ego stroke.
