I don't know how to write this. I just know as a breeder I have to.
We pride ourselves with being selective with our choices when it comes to finding good homes for our puppies. The questions we ask, reading between the lines, listening to innuendoes, checking out resources, on and on.
We invest a lot of time, energy, and emotions in this process of placing our puppies. Then why does it sometimes go so wrong? Am./Can Ch. Cam's
Jack Hammer, a three and a half year old Bouvier, was brutally murdered
by his owner, John Slawinski. Those of you who know me know that I have kept in contact with John and with Jack for the past few years since Jack was a puppy.
I showed Jack to both his championships. At his first show, just six months old, Jack won Best Of Winners at our regional Specialty here in E. Lansing, Michigan. Jack would come to my house when John would go on vacation. I would groom Jack, often. Yes, I kept tabs on this lovely dog but one day last week John, in a drunken rage, took his anger out on his dog, my Jack, and in the end John shot Jack.
I have no idea how much Jack suffered.
I have to stop myself from imagining the terror.
Everyone who reads this knows my pain, knows how much this hurts.
I am not writing this for your sympathy. I am writing this because I do believe that at some time in the future John Slawinski will be contacting other Bouvier breeders for another dog. My hope is that you, the caretakers of our breed, will recognize his name if he calls you, remember his murderous deed, and tell him no (no is too nice a word).
You need to be warned. He will tell you whatever he thinks you want to hear. He is a master at manipulating, embellishing, and changing the truth.
Again, his name is John Slawinski. He lives in Lansing, Michigan. He has owned Bouviers for years. He tells a good story. He brutally killed his
dog, Champion Cam's Jack Hammer, the last week of October 2002, during a drunken rage.
Please post and cross-post. I don't belong to a list so if someone wants to post it on the list I would greatly appreciate it. Get this email out to anyone that may have puppies for sale now or in the future. Thanks for your help.

That makes sense in a weird sort of way. I don't honestly think that its humanly possible to train anyone or anything without correction. Its human nature to say 'no' or to stop a behavior by doing something. I used a tin can with coins to correct Summer's bad puppy behaviors and the cold shoulder to correct her other less desirable behaviors. I have said 'no' so many times that I probably sound like a broken record. Amie can attest to that lol.
It seems to me that some people are automatically equating the term correction with punishment. I guess they can go hand in hand since my tin can wasn't something Summer liked. My ignoring her when she's misbehaving is also something she doesn't like. Therefore it can be viewed as punishment? And that term is 100% negative.
Maybe if more people saw it as correction and not the total negative, they'd be less

That makes sense in a weird sort of way. I don't honestly think that its humanly possible to train anyone or anything without correction.
