So yesterday Jen is driving down the highway to do a home visit, and guess what she saw? A sign advertising puppies for sale.
But these are not just ANY puppies! These are a breed of dog she hasn’t heard of before!
Hmmmmm….. I wonder what kinda dog this is?
So she decided to share with you another sign she sees every day on her way to work. She took this on the way home, so it’s kinda dark….. AND she needs to clean her windshield!
This guy is exploiting undomesticated cats to make himself look big and bad.
Yep, that’s a wild cat he has standing on his shoulders. He has other billboards with the cat in other poses as well.
I think it’s safe to say we would NEVER buy a vehicle from this dealership.
You know, when you open your eyes to the ways animals are exploited, it’s easy to see it all around you.
.
In other news, we had another break in at our house yesterday while Jen was at work.
Uh oh! someone stole a scrubbing pad!
That HAS to be what happened, because who among us would chew open a box of scrubbing pads?
What a sneaky thief! He dropped this on the back porch, most likely while making his escape.
Some things just boggle the mind…….
Our Eich was a Rottweiler..at least I think he was..perhaps I was wrong…I have also heard of the Rockwelter and Rockwheeler…god bless him he was a beautiful boy no matter what breed..i worry about the care factor of the owner if they don’t know the name of the breed……just saying
Posted by fozziemum | November 20, 2013, 5:54 AMHmmmmm….. maybe this is a mix between a rottie and one of those rockwheelers then?
Posted by rumpydog | November 20, 2013, 6:08 AMMust be Rumpy…oh dear….;)
Posted by fozziemum | November 21, 2013, 3:10 AMNo, I’m sure, none of you would ever steal a scrubbing pad. It’s the chewing gum of the really tough dog.
Posted by stanze | November 20, 2013, 5:56 AMWhat? Dog? Hey, you think a DOG might have done this?
Posted by rumpydog | November 20, 2013, 6:06 AMSad that the human breeding Rockweilers is too illiterate to get a job and uses innocent dogs to make money.
Posted by kimhardy327 | November 20, 2013, 6:05 AMso just what IS a rockweiler anyway?
Posted by rumpydog | November 20, 2013, 6:06 AMSo sad and silly. I read a sign which I wish I had taken a pic of where someone was selling
“ginney pigs, 3 colour cavees”
I believe they meant tri colour guinea pig which are cavies or three guinea pigs. It’s difficult to tell. I hate to think someone who cannot even spell guinea pigs breeding them when breeding is so very dangerous.

Posted by hutchagoodlife | November 20, 2013, 6:21 AMUh oh! Ginney huh? I wonder what THAT’S a mix of?
Posted by rumpydog | November 20, 2013, 6:23 AMGin and a Ninny probably! ^_^
xxxx
Posted by hutchagoodlife | November 20, 2013, 6:30 AMI do not judge people who buy pets from breeders, however, I think there are way too many cats and dogs at shelters that need a good home and I would not feel right abandoning those in need and paying money to a breeder so they can continue what they are doing, thus depriving more shelter animals from good homes. That may be the longest sentence I ever wrote. 🙂
Posted by Charles Huss | November 20, 2013, 6:43 AMI do judge them. If only they knew what conditions that “pure-bred” dog they shelled out hundreds of dollars lived in, they might think twice about that shelter dog.
Posted by rumpydog | November 20, 2013, 8:14 AMHope the dogs aren’t really Rocker :o) I agree with you, I wouldn’t buy a car there… ahmmmm and “bob40” means he is 40 years old (the 26.th time), right? Who is the guy who likes scrubbing pads?
Posted by easyweimaraner | November 20, 2013, 7:17 AMI have no idea who likes those scrubber pads! I was just minding my own business!
Posted by rumpydog | November 20, 2013, 8:14 AMLove your post today as always Rumpster! And hmmm, wonder who got into those scrubby pads? LOL
Posted by Jenna,Mark “HuskyCrazed” Drady | November 20, 2013, 7:41 AMI have no clue!!! woo woo woo!
Posted by rumpydog | November 20, 2013, 8:15 AMOh dear. What are those!!! Rockweiller? Are they a new AKC breed? This should be breaking news!
By the way, thank you for dropping by our blog and checking us out. It was an awful week for the Filipinos. Most of the ones affected by the typhoon is now slowly rebuilding their lives.
Posted by haopee2 | November 20, 2013, 7:48 AMIt’s very sad to know people are suffering in that way. I guess lots of people don’t realize that your country was once a territory of the US, so we have much history between us.
Posted by rumpydog | November 20, 2013, 8:16 AMThe sign of the first picture reminds me the story of ” Snoopy” written by Charles Monroe Schulz …..
Posted by eripanwkevin | November 20, 2013, 8:30 AMOh yes! I remember!
Posted by rumpydog | November 20, 2013, 10:02 AMEating scrubbing pads, now that is an achievement!
Posted by OhMelvin | November 20, 2013, 9:18 AMOur thieves like to go above and beyond what is typical behavior in their profession!
Posted by rumpydog | November 20, 2013, 10:03 AMThat scrubbing pad thing..definitely the work of a cat and I know you have a cat!
Posted by Emmadog | November 20, 2013, 9:27 AMAbsolutely! I blame June Buggie!
Posted by rumpydog | November 20, 2013, 10:03 AMThe culprit will be easy to spot, their teeth will be sparking clean hehehe:-)
Posted by Misaki | November 20, 2013, 10:27 AMMaybe that’s why we snacked in the litter box afterward….. IF we did it, that is.
Posted by rumpydog | November 20, 2013, 11:49 AMOh dog Rumpy! You better protect from those burglars! Woooooowooooooo!
Posted by Kuruk | November 20, 2013, 11:02 AMIt’s a never-ending struggle we face…. *sigh*
Posted by rumpydog | November 20, 2013, 11:49 AMOh Nasty, a scrubbing pad? That has to be toxic!
Posted by wigglebuttryker | November 20, 2013, 11:43 AMI bet those burglars are sorry now!
Posted by rumpydog | November 20, 2013, 11:50 AMS.O.D.!! Ugh! That guy makes trouble everywhere he goes! I certainly hope you’re not getting blamed, R.
Love and licks,
Cupcake
Posted by Genevieve Petrillo | November 20, 2013, 3:27 PMWho? Me? I’m innocent, I tell ya!
Posted by rumpydog | November 20, 2013, 5:35 PMI bet a Rockweiler would eat a scrubbing pad, anyways, the truth will out ďż˝?ďż˝
Posted by EllaDee | November 20, 2013, 5:23 PMYeah! THAT’S who broke in our house!
Posted by rumpydog | November 20, 2013, 5:34 PMWe think that same robber visits our house every now and then too:)
Woos - Phantom, Ciara, and Lightning
Posted by The OP Pack | November 20, 2013, 7:12 PMRockweiler… wow. Obviously not a reputable breeder.
Intersting choice for a chew toy, there Rumpy. Yuck!

Posted by Nylabluesmum | November 20, 2013, 8:51 PMhahahaha too funny
Posted by MilliandBustasmum | November 20, 2013, 10:15 PMA rockweiler is a rottweiler that can play the guitar.
Posted by Barney the Corgi | November 20, 2013, 11:17 PMI saw an ad on an online classified ad web site that was offering “Weenie Puppies”
I didn’t call, since I was looking for a female, and had to assume they were all male. 🙂
Posted by ntexas99 | November 21, 2013, 12:34 AMone of my sons suggested putting a scrubbing pad in a small hole in my garage wall to ward off rodents, but clearly that doesn’t work, based on your photos … thankfully, the other son suggested installing a small metal plate over both sides of the hole, and even showed up with his screw gun in hand … guess I’m glad I went with Option 2.
Posted by ntexas99 | November 21, 2013, 12:37 AMIf you can’t spell the breed … how good a breeder can you be??
Posted by Teepee12 | November 21, 2013, 1:01 AMOf all the NERVE! THAT’S ONE WEIRD THIEF!
Posted by hairballexpress | November 21, 2013, 1:43 AMRockweiler? Wow. I wonder what the combo is there? LOL!
Sad though to see these signs. The owner of the St Paul Petland sits on a stool over by my mother’s house and advertises puppies and kitties. No joke. Just makes me so mad. Guess he’s been losing business since the protests started and he’s desperate.
Re: the second sign - isn’t that a domesticated housecoat on his shoulders? Not sure why that would be an issue if it is his own cat. Hard to tell from the picture on my phone.
Posted by Mel | November 21, 2013, 3:30 AMIt’s a safari shirt he’s wearing. And it’s an issue because these cats are not domesticated, and therefore should not be kept as pets.
Posted by rumpydog | November 21, 2013, 5:17 AMI think they’re for people who want really rock hard Rotties!
Posted by Clowie | November 21, 2013, 4:29 AMP.S. I suppose they could be musical Rotties, BOL!
Posted by Clowie | November 21, 2013, 4:29 AMfunny…but, ‘labradoodles’ are worse
Posted by Jo Bryant | November 21, 2013, 11:49 AMWhen Jen was a kid, her old aunt called her brother’s penis a doodle (when changing his diaper, so don’t get upset!). So whenver I see that breed…. however it’s spelled….. I laugh!
Posted by rumpydog | November 21, 2013, 12:56 PMOh that is hilarious. I used to call them diddles for some obscure reason. Now when I see a labradoodle I am soooo going to have trouble not roaring with laughter…thanks Rumpy…that story made me laugh so hard I spilled my coffee
Posted by Jo Bryant | November 21, 2013, 12:59 PMBreeding should become illegal, as long as animals lose their lives in shelter around the world, for me this is not up for discussion, I have no understanding for those who buys animals from breeders, shops and co.!!!!
Posted by buffybuffers | November 21, 2013, 12:11 PMAnd yet, here in the US breeding continues. Most people here obtain their companion animals from a neighbor or friend or the animal shows up. That is due to backyard breeding.
