April Fools was Sunday

And from what I gathered, www.flaggers.org played a GREAT practical joke on those harassing the site owner and it's members. At least those members who are open about participating in the Puppy Wars and using Flaggers.org to flag postings that blatantly violate the TOU of Craigslist.

Wish I had a few screen shots of it to share. Oh well. Good Flaggers.org, I enjoy using your site!

It would seem the only intelligent one of the bunch below would be Cows.

Well guys, you've probably noticed I've not been around here as much. So I hope this is not too much of a surprise...

I might as well be upfront about it. I'm officially resigning from flagging. I know it's a surprise, but all the civil conversations I've had with responsible breeders have made me realize that at the end of the day, maybe part of my passion for the issue, might be that I too, in a sense, want MY OWN children to experience the miracle of birth.

Also I know it sounds cliche, but I have seen that my latest rescue really REALLY wants to have puppies (probably just one litter and then I'll have her fixed). That's a first, now I understand what people are talking about!!

Of course this is about what's best for the dog, and not the money (although I expect it to be somewhat substantial, which I do feel I deserve as my rescue baby seems quite healthy and has a WONDERFUL temperament).

It is the principle -- Maybe the solution isn't about laws and regulations, but instead simply about education, respect, and faith?

So, I would feel like a bit of a hypocrite if I kept flagging other people's sales. I hope you won't judge me too harshly. And of course, out of respect for you guys, my e-friends for the last couple years, when and if I do breed my rescue bitch, I will NOT use CL to sell my puppies. :)

never seen them actually put up a message on a website that's been shut down, it seems odd. Usually it just says the page is N/A. Hopefully they haven't just relocated or something.
