Would it make a difference if our families knew/didnt know we had done it?

Not if your outgoings are a million pounds per dead puppy.Originally posted by Old Greg View PostI have been wondering whether, in the post-horsemeat scandal atmosphere, it's still easy to turn a decent profit on a ton of black market puppy meat.

Almost everyone has...
My view is that if you pay someone to do something, your ethical position is pretty much the same.
Given that the food we eat, the drugs we take when we are sick, fags, booze etc have been tested on animals including dogs then we have all killed dogs, basically we have outsourced it.
The production of lamb is responsible for the deaths of many dogs each year.
Many people are too squeamish to do it personally, but that is not an ethical position.
My own position reminds me of when my cat had an expensive but entirely fixable condition and the vet said it would be much cheaper to have it put down, my view was that as it was my cat I had a duty to fix the bloody thing and it was dishonourable to let it die.
But if it was someone else's cat (or puppy) that would not apply.

You just want us to pay for your flights to Oz. While MF may be stupid enough to fall for that trick I'm not that stupid.Originally posted by mudskipper View PostMy sister just posted a picture of her new puppy on facebook. It's very cute, but in Australia, so I'd want expenses too.

Baseline costs around a mongrel and then work out a multiplier based charge sheet for different breeds.Originally posted by Pondlife View PostWhat breed are we talking about here?
Are we talking about a proper dog or one of those handbag accessory, little yappy things that I could easily drop kick over the posts from the 22 yard line.
I have a dog but am definitely not a dog person.
