Is it just me, I mean, it could very well be. but it seems like alot of new people have came to the board here lately, just about all have asked the same questions, and when they don't get an answer they like, such as an old member telling them to run a search on the board for a previous discussion on the same subject, the new people get all rude and pissy.
I for one would like to see people doing their own research, some of the questions can easily be answered if they looked for themselves. like how to choose a puppy, what to look for when looking at a litter and so on.

In their mind, they are researching, or attempting to. They could use guidance instead of flaming.
Good Day,

Yeah, alot of dog people seem to be just rude in general, whether it be online or otherwise. Others are happy with you and act like your best buddy as long as you allow them to ride your coat-tail, explaining pedigrees, bloodlines, etc so THEY don't have to do the work. Then go psycho on you once you begin to hold up. I tell ya, I've seen alot, too, in my 11yrs with the breed. Some people, clients and breeders alike, are just unrealistic and over demanding.
Is not the mentality of today rather spoiled? They want the best things handed to them and to throw a fit if you don't jump when they want it. They need a taste of the real world.
When I decide on buying a dog or pup, I check for bloodlines/individuals I prefer/like. Then I check up on their pedigree and what they are producing-the quality needs to be in the progeny as well as the individual. I do online researching, talk to other breeders/people, read books, etc. Then I contact reputable breeders who have those lines and see what they have available, etc. This can take months to years before I feel comfortable. And, I sleep on the idea-if it bothers me, then I scrap it and start afresh.
If people don't know how to do it, they need to pick up and learn like the rest of us, or get into something else.

no not all newbies are like this. but alot here lately have been
I read a post earlier and someone who has been on the board a while posted a link and told the person they could also search the board, the reply back they got was rude and hateful in my opinion. like the article didn't help the person at all and other stuff.
