Acknowledgements
While I have learned from many dog trainers over the years, a few stand out. Thanks to Glen Johnson, who early in the 80s taught me about inducive training. And also to Bill Dotson, who introduced us to Schutzhund and Search & Rescue.
Thanks Tracey Louper for letting me help teach classes, and being my friend and sounding board for new dog training ideas.
Special thanks to friend and mentor Michael Ellis. Michael is a gifted dog trainer and teacher, and almost everything I use and teach these days comes from Michael.
And thanks to Ivan Balabanov, who started our club, Big Sky Schutzhund Club, on the way to becoming thinking dog trainers.

Hi,
I am looking to place a litter of 5 adorable bulldog puppies and also the parents, they belong to my late mother in law who I was really close to and she passed away unexpectedly, these puppies are so cute with correct conformation and excellent dispositions with shots and worming up to date. They do the funniest things. You just can’t get enough of their playful antics. And they are growing so fast, contact me immediately if you are interested in them.
Have a nice day,
Amanda

Both were in my inbox this morning, and at least once a week. The bulldog puppies is a low-rent version of a Nigerian 419 scam. You send money for non-existent puppies, then they need more money for shipping, and another $200 to clear customs.
There is no free veterinary equipment, no free van, but scammers obviously know there’s money to be made from charities or struggling new veterinarians looking for a good deal, bleeding “fees” for shipping or whatever for as long as they can before the charity finally realises they’ve been scammed.
Check out offers that are too good to be true at:

The good news for people with time on their hands is the internet’s newest hobby: Scam the Scammers.
http://www.419eater.com/ 419Eater.com ScamBaiting.
“What is scambaiting? Well, put simply, you enter into a dialogue with scammers, simply to waste their time and resources. Whilst you are doing this, you will be helping to keep the scammers away from real potential victims and screwing around with the minds of deserving thieves.”
What a great hobby! The letters archive makes for some fun reading.
