I knew that one, just pointing out the other one isn't really wrong the way she used it.

What's wrong with Purina? Are you saying that because I paid alot of money for her, I should pay alot for her food? I thought Purina was decent food, not high-end but not low-end either.

My opinion is that Purina isn't a very good food. It's all about the ingredients.

Well, maybe you're right but that's what she eats.

The second picture is down-right funny and the third is amazing. I've never seen a dog so closely resemble a wolf in all my life. The owner doesn't say what kind it is, just Mixed/Other.

I took a pique at the photos.

Their temperament seems very similar to my border collie. To put that dog in a crate would be a travesty and harmful to his mental health. An NAID would be perfect for my household, lots of kids to love and play with, lots of room to run, and no need for a crate or chain. I just can't swing $1000.

The crate is for potty-training and to prevent "puppy destruction" when we aren't home. My malamute is quite content in her crate. Seems like there's a major problems with NAIDs and "recreation" NAIDs. Hard to tell if you're really get one or if you're getting a fake. For that price, I better be getting a real one. Not in the market for another dog yet but when I am, I will keep NAIDs in mind.
