    Results on their way.

    I decided that rather than exclude posters who didn't follow the correct format (as it does change who wins/loses) I'd just list the offenders but won't include their replies next time should they not change their ways :)

    It basically comes down to the little tool I use to add up the scores. When people put full stops at the end of their replies or forget the space between the 1. and the actual answer then it adds a little time to reformat them first. When several people all do this then it adds a lot of time :)


    So can these kind folks please take more care for next time.....?

    5. Jack Russell 6
    5. Pit Bull 1

    9. fetch 5
    9. Heel 1
    9. Paw 3
    9. Roll Over 11
    9. Wait 2

    I wonder how many dog owners here have actually trained their dog? I don't know if 'down' is even a command or not?

    10. Budgie 30
    10. Canary 10
    10. Cockatoo 1
    10. Hawk 1
    10. Lovebird 2

    A boxer? Do you want the poor child to be trampled to death? :)

    i was gonna say pitbull, they were bred to protect families, but some sick bar stewards thought it would be fun to watch them rip each other apart

    i didnt go for it because of the commen misconception that they are a visious animal. like any dog they need to be raised by the right type of person, just a shame most people would rather use them for fighting
