Mary Ann Keefer, of Thornacre Collies, was and IS the intimate partner
of one Dan Pierce, the convicted dog killer reported at the "Scenes From
A death Camp" web site. She was his next door neighbor, who knew of his
systematic death by torture of those Collies. Worse yet, she not only
did NOTHING to intervene; she also REFUSED to cooperate with law
endorsement authorities and testify against him in court!!!
In February of this year, after Pierce's conviction, Carmen Leonard,
Secretary of the Collie Club of America, sent a post to the Collie mail
list stating that Mary Ann Keefer had NOT been a member since 1995,
having failed to renew her membership for 1996. However, the 1996 CCA
Yearbook just published and distributed not only lists Keefer as a 1996
member, it also gives her NEW (as of March or April 1997) address and
telephone number!!
If Keefer was NOT a member in 1996, as stated by Leonard (the
administrator of the membership roster) what is she doing as listed in
the 1996 CCA Yearbook, huh?? Worse yet is Keefer's integral role in the
puppy murders by her friend and neighbor Pierce. Keefer herself acquired
some insulation from prosecution by initially advising law enforcement
that she would cooperate with them in Pierce's prosecution. She held
this immunity up until the 11th hour of the case, when other players
became reluctant to testify and helped them lobby the prosecution for a
plea agreement. This crime, being only considered a MISDEMEANOR, didn't
merit pursuit of Keefer even for forcing the plea agreement in the eyes
of the Guernsey Co. prosecutors office.
The Collie Club of America, having failed to take any stand whatsoever
in the matter prior to the disciplinary action of the American Kennel
Club, had through Secretary Carmen Leonard, led the membership to
understand that Keefer would NOT be reinstated to membership without
some sort of examination of her part in these horrifying crimes. In
essence, Carmen Leonard LIED to the membership deliberately, authorized
the inclusion of Keefer's name in the 1996 Yearbook AND provided the
Yearbook Editor with Keefer's brand new 1997 address and phone number.
So, at the absolutely highest level of power, even greater than that of
the Club President's, the welfare and concern for the ENTIRE breed has
been summarily judged by ONE person to be of less interest than the
amount of $50: the price of membership reinstatement.
The membership has lobbied for years for Constitutional revisions. In my
opinion, the breed has never had a better reason to demand protection
from neglect of it's needs through the oversight of the American Kennel
Club. THIS careless disregard by a breed club is why animal rights
organizations and breed-specific legislation gets a foot in the door.
BTW, though I am ashamed to be a member of the Collie Club of America, I
recognize that change can only be brought from "within". Therefore, it
is my intention to run for national office again. At least I'm willing
to put my money where my mouth is. I'm copying this to the AKC. If you
think that AKC should investigate this betrayal of the breed by a PARENT
CLUB, please send them an e-mail yourselves. More is better in this
case.

"Scenes From A Death Camp"
NEVER FORGET THESE CRIMES !!!!!!
What careless disregard? To quote from the CCA constitution - Article
VIII/Sec. 2:
"Any member who has voluntarily resigned or discontinued paying his
membership dues may be accepted as an active member upon payment of the
current year's dues, together with a reinstatement fee."
Now, I can remember one year when I didn't have the $ to pay when dues
were due and had to cough up $50 also, later on in the year. So of
course, the secretary included my name in the following year's CCA
Yearbook, just like she/he was supposed to do.
As far as Ms. Leonard's leading the membership to"understand that Keefer
would NOT be reinstated......." When was this? I, too, am part of the
membership and, through my District Director, have access to Communiques.
I do not recall seeing any such statement on the part of the Secretary,
nor would such a statement be warranted since she was only FOLLOWING THE
DICTATES OF THE CONSTITUTION.

Meredith,
You're right.... and you're wrong. While you have accurately stated
the CCA Constitution, you have overlooked that the CCA passed a policy
several years back, where a member who had more than a one year lapse
was treated as a "new member".
You are also right in that the statement by Secretary Leonard was not
in the CCA Communiques. However, a statement to this effect *was*
forwarded to the Collie List from Secretary Leonard.
Since Mary Anne Keefer was not a member in 1996, and only re-applied
recently, her re-instatement should have been treated as a "new
application", BY CCA POLICY.

Oh, Leslie, you are a such legend in your own mind!
"Half truths---No Truths----Nothing But The Lies"--Leslie Mamer
I see you didn't take my advice and seek treatment and lock yourself up.
More's the pity, because you are getting crazier by the minute. You lost
your forum on Collie-I; you can't post to the new list; so what does a
crazy person do? Why, she takes her garbage to a "pet newsgroup". Way to
go Leslie!!! Let everyone from all the breeds witness first hand, how
nuts you are!
Currently on another rampage?? When you can't base your arguments on
facts, you make things up, as you go along. It has served you well in the
past, but no more. It has gone beyond the art of simple lying. You have
moved into the realm of delusions and hallucinations. For your
information, Mrs. Leonard did not make any statements regarding Mary Ann
Keefer. Number one, why would the club want to examine Mary Ann's part?
Not only was she not convicted of ANY crime, but it was never proven that
she had any connection whatsoever to the sordid Pierce mess. The remarks
you attribute to Mrs. Leonard are completely fabricated--you must have
heard them in your dreams. Secondly, Mrs. Leonard as the club secretary,
is not the "administrator of the membership" roster. Nor does she have
the authorization to admit or exclude any members from the CCA.
Certainly, even you must realize this. You know Leslie, something has
become very obvious--you continue to include Mrs. Leonard in most of your
personal vendettas and attacks. It is very apparent, that you are so
jealous of her success and influence, and her club stature, that you can't
stand it. Let me explain something to you--in terms you can relate
to--you aren't even a pimple on her ass!
It's the same old story--tell a couple of lies---embellish the
truth---slant things a little--stretch your limited imagination--make
things up as you go along--then trash and bash--It's Leslie at her worse!!
But, it's the only style you know and you don't even do it well!. You
are currently doing a "number" on Jeanne Welch. Let me give you a
friendly warning--someday Leslie, your ass is going to end up in a sling
and you will lose all the money you made from your lawsuits.
BTW, in case you weren't aware of it--thanks to your efforts, the Dan
Pierce prosecution case was completely undermined. Because of your
barrage of insults, abuse, and harassment, the prosecution smelled another
rat. The integrity of the entire investigation was compromised, thanks
solely to you. You exploited the whole affair for your own glorification
and gratification. Furthermore, your continued tirades removed any hope
of any of the witnesses ever testifying. YOU MS. MAMER ARE THE SOLE
REASON DAN PIERCE RECEIVED SUCH A LIGHT SENTENCE, WITH NOTHING MORE THAN A
SLAP ON THE WRIST! You are still at it, egging Dan and others on--even
bringing his sexual preferences into it (like that has anything to do with
the situation!).
Speaking of abuse and cruelty to animals---I bet you never brag about the
1996 Columbus National, when you arrived with your nasty dogs in tow???
Remember the fights with several people over the conditions and general
state of your dogs? Remember how soiled, filthy, dirty and spooky they
were? Remember all the fighting? And you my dear, criticize others
regarding the care of their dogs? I mean really Leslie, pinch
yourself--it's time for a reality check! If I remember correctly (in
listening to all the shouting and commotion), certain people did not want
the dogs bred by them and now owned by you, to be shown. They considered
it an embarrassment not only to themselves, but most of all, to the dogs
because of their condition (i.e. poop and urine stained, dirty,
undernourished and prick-eared). All of the breeders, without exception,
were sorry they had ever sold you the dogs in the first place. One
breeder who screamed at you, even refused to handle one of your dogs.
Remember all this? Hmmm?? Why haven't you been bragging about this on
the newsgroup??
Oh and by the way Leslie, a word of advice--don't ever let your CCA
membership lapse! This I know to be a fact--you will never get back into
the club! You are "ashamed to be a member of CCA"?? Guess what? It
won't take much imagination to figure this one out----the club and its
members look at you in shame AND pity. And BTW, go ahead and run for
office--that will be good for a couple of laughs. How many votes last
time--26? Even people you consider your friends laugh behind your back.
One of your friends, Athena says you need a permanant choke collar! Ask
your friend Doug about some of his private comments. They make for great
reading. The trash annihilating the trash!
Congratulations, YOU Leslie Mamer--breeder of one champion--abuser of your
own dogs--Dan Pierce's Salvation--Keep up the great work!!!!!!
The Real CCAPITA
No imitation here!!!
Be sure and visit my web site (under construction) exposing Ms. Mamer for
the charlatan, fake and fraud she is! See her own dogs that she
abused--pictures from the 1996 National!!

Uhuh. Now maybe the Collie Club should think about changing their
Constitution to add a provision that says that lapsed or current members
who have had some incidences which might be viewed as breed ethics
violations will be reviewed by the membership before being given any
member privileges. "course, that might be TOO RESPONSIBLE for a club
that can't even make a public statement about a lower life form like
Pierce, who wasn't even a member PERIOD!!! I mean what the hell did they
have to lose, huh??? He was arrested and convicted and the Collie Club
still NEVER uttered a peep until weeks AFTER the AKC acted on behalf of
the breed FOR THEM!!!!

Yup. That's how they barred two others whose memberships lapsed from
rejoining. That Khaddafi-ette Carmen Leonard got on the phone to her
pals on the Executive Committee and waged a slander campaign so that
these folks who had NEVER been involved in anything detrimental to the
breed got denied membership reinstatement. Can you say DOUBLE
STANDARD????

Uh..I DO believe that Ms. Mamer stated ONLY that the membership "was led
to believe". She didn't say how and it's not relevent in the first
place! Who gives a flying fart if Carmen Leonard puts it on a billboard
or sends it to a Collie mailing list?!?! The idea here is that she made
a promise to people concerned for the Collie breed!!

Please re-read the quote from the CCA constitution: these

You mean the photos at the web site aren't enough for you, Meredith? What
part of that, taken from the evidence submitted to the court, is NOT true?
I suppose that pleading guilty to two rather than the original 10 charges
somehow minimizes Pierce's culpability? I think NOT!

Well, if you are somewhat acquainted with the English language and can read
the Mary Shingle letter posted in it's entirety at the web site, you too
might come to that same conclusion. How DOES one walk
away from a "puppy Auschwitz" and recant statements to law enforcement, or
ask for a plea agreement in lieu of having to testify against a friend you
know to be a monster? Clearly Shingle *was* an eyewitness to these acts of
barbarism. Perhaps her "friendships" meant more than the lives ebbing way
in front of her? I know I would have not done the same as she; nor would
most of the people here on r.p.d. What about you, Meredith?

Merideth,
Can you spell READING COMPREHENSION? Re-read the quote from the CCA
Constitution yourself. Tell me *where* in that quote does it put a
TIME LIMIT on re-instatement? I'll give you a helpful hint - it
doesn't, and it doesn't anywhere *ELSE* in the CCA Constitution.

but I'm doing it for the puppies sake so don't jump on me too much about
it. You never know when this bit of information might come in handy. As of
today my best information is that these are current.

Why then wasn't Doug Jones afforded the same treatment? Why was he
required to reapply like a new member and rejected with no rational ever
publically given, or privately to Mr. Jones himself for that matter?
Is there a double standard being practiced? Who decides when the
Constitution is adhered to literally, in the spirit of, or outright
ignored?
>

That same Constitution mandates that when approved by the EC, a warrant
for payment shall be made by the Secretary. Why then after nearly a year
or so has the Secretary still failed to issue said warrant to pay the
bills incurred by Mrs. Ireland to stave off ridiculous charges aimed
simply at by-passing the Constitution and the edict of the membership
when they elected her as President?
Again, who decides when the Constitution is to be followed and when it is
not? Seems to me the only fair and honest solution it to follow it AT
ALL TIMES, not simply when it suits someones agenda!!!!!!
Ahh, but Doug, you are missing the point made in Colombus where we do not
need to follow the "Letter" of the Constitution, only the "Spirit" of the
Constitution. Besides, we all lead to believe that we are to damn stupid
to read it and figure it out on our own, so let's let someone else do it
for us and follow along like blind little sheep.
Again, please re-read the quote from the constitution! In Doug's case,
it had been more than a year since his membership laped. So that didn't
apply to him.
Meredith
I'll stop it right here and advise all readers that, AOL being the server
which affords lots of opportunity for TROLLS to flourish, has served up
THIS TROLL who has been following me around for several months. It
appeared on the Collie e-mail list first. Then, when I unsubscribed very
discreetly to prevent any of it's further disruption of the list, it
followed me here. Looks like it was afraid of being traced so it invented
another screen name (not very complimentary to the bully-breeds) to try
and avoid detection.
The other thing I know about this TROLL is that it is not one person but
a GROUP of Collie persons who take ANY criticism of the Collie Club of
America very personally. You can see the different styles as it rotates
from one TROLL to the next. But really, all you have to do is read what
it is screeching about and balance that against what I have said and what
is at the web site. Everything there is from the evidence files, court
transcripts and that 5 page letter written by one of the witnesses who
backed out. We have a deposition coming from the spectators in court that
day who ALSO participated in the post-court meeting with the prosecutor.
It affirms the reasons for the plea agreement and, I assure you, there is
no mention of me at all. It will be added to the web site when all 10 of
the spectators have finished signing it, and adding their own comments.
At that point you can judge for yourself whether or not to take the
rantings of an anonymous TROLL, who has killfiled me from return e-mail
("delivery refused" is the message); or to accept what you can actually
see as some proof of my integrity. The comments about the "conditions" of
my dogs at the National by the TROLL are nothing more than pure lies
meant to draw me out into it's pissing contest. Kind of funny in a way
since every dog I had with me was a Veteran which was bred and co-owned
by THE top breeders in the country who WERE there and saw them. I WAS
criticized for their "malnourished condition". They were a bit on the
pudgy side, which in view of their advanced ages could be strictly
interpreted as being detrimental <G>. I put on a few pounds after I
passed middle-age, too. The rest of the accusations are pure BS, and my
partner who roomed with me can vouch for having to fight for space on the
beds with the "old timers". NONE of their breeders asked for them back or
expressed concern for either health or condition.
Ahh well... decide for yourselves. Bottom line is that the TROLL doesn't
want the web site up or me in the Collie Club. Lies are the best it can
offer.

You know, I have read, re-read, and read again the Constitution and NO
WHERE does it sate this phantom 1 year moritorium you speak of. Perhaps
you should read it for yourself and then identify where you are drawing
your reference from. Given that you continually make the reference to
something which is not there, I think you are unfamiliar with what is
really written within that document.
At any rate, we never heard why is membership renewal was rejected. In
fact, Doug himself was never told. But I am willing to bet that he has
not done anything or associated himself with as scurrilous as someone
connected with Mr. Starve'em&Kill'em Pierce.

Meredith,
Once again. There is NO time limit specified in the CCA Constitution
for re-instatement. That is a *POLICY*, not something in the
Constitution. If you're going to insist people read the document,
you'd better read it yourself.
It was *also* more than a year for Mary Ann Keefer's membership lapse.
However, unlike me, she hadn't said anything about her fellow
breeders. Why, she lived next door to one collie breeder, a guy named
Dan Pierce, and has adamantly refused to say ANYTHING bad about him!
Gosh, that makes her a prime candidate for a back-door reinstatement,
doesn't it? <sarcasm intended>
Doug Jones
Nice try Leslie, but no cigar. Number 1, I was never on the Collie e-mail
list. Following you around??? In your dreams Leslie! I wrote you
previously regarding some garbage you were ranting and raving about on the
Collie List (the Gazette column, remember?). A kind individual sent me
copies of your posts. You didn't unsubscribe from the list---you were
kicked off---suspended. "Discreetly" you say? That's a funny one!!!!
Somehow that is not a description I would ever think of in reference to
you. Must be another famous Mamer joke! For your information, the now
famous CCAPITA, troll or whatever you choose to call me, is one person
and always has been. No one takes turns, although I have to admit, there
are several hundred people who would love to give it a try! Not one
person knows the true identity of CCAPITA. "Afraid of being traced?" I
mean really Leslie-- Shame on you! Who is going to trace me?? The
Internet cops?? "Screeching"?? I don't think so, but that does sound a
bit like you. "Evidence, transcripts, depositions...blah, blah, blah".
Garbage in--Garbage out! Everyone knows your involvement in the Pierce
affair was for your own glorification and nothing more. It gave you lots
of practice at grandstanding and posturing. You prevented Dan from
getting the kind of sentence he deserved and you further undermined the
entire case by flying off the handle with wild accusations, levelled at
everyone he knew or had close dealings with. BORING! Quite frankly, I am
not interested in a pissing contest with you--I am just interested in
telling it like it is! And at the same time, informing others about what
a phony you are--full of garbage and hot air. BTW, you and I both know
everything I wrote about you and your dogs at the National, was true. Ask
the breeders involved. Why was the one TOP breeder screaming and swearing
at you?? Huh??? I won't mention names out of respect for their privacy,
but you know who they are and lots of other people heard the entire sordid
affair. One nice thing about being a troll and being anonymous---you
can't reduce the argument to racial, sexual or personal attacks because
you know nothing about me. That must kill you! The great Leslie Mamer's
hands tied--- can't come up with hits below the belt. Too bad, huh?
Keep up the good work Leslie--your excellent work continues to make you
look stupid and foolish, not to mention sick, petty, and very very
tiring. BORING!!

Yeah, right. The *fact* that Mary Shingle, Mary Anne Keefer, et.al.
refused to testify had *nothing* to do with it, would it? Have you
*ever* heard of a case where a DA knew there was publicity, had a lawyer

Really? What an imagination *you* have. Unfortunately for *you*, I WAS
THERE! I helped unload those dogs, I helped groom them. They were *not*
poop and urine stained. Malnourished? Sorry, if anything they were
slightly overweight. They weren't prick eared either. How would I know
this? I actually saw the dogs, I had my hands on them, and handled one
of them myself.
I was also there when Leslie brought out one of those breeders, who also
happened to co-own one of the dogs. *HE* didn't see anything wrong. In
fact, Leslie made the offer to him to take the dog back, if he felt the
dog was being mistreated, or was in poor condition! His response? "No,
they look good. No need for that."
Obviously you were either *not* at the National, or, if you were, you
never bothered to join the parade of breeders who went out and looked for
themselves - and saw nothing wrong. Why don't you get *your* facts
straight!

You haven't looked at the vote totals from the last election.. try 10

Doug,
You are right and I am wrong - as far as my quoting the constitution is
concerned and I apologize.
However, the time limit for reinstatement is not just "policy" as you
state, it is a *standing rule* that was voted on and approved by the EC
back in 1990 and it is this info through the communiques, that I was
confusing with the constitution. After a time period of one year,
following the year of non-payment, a new application is required to be
submitted, along, of course, with EC approval.

Really. TROLL. I was there. I heard that "Top breeder" screaming.
I happen to have known that same breeder for more than 10 years. Read
my other post, TROLL. That particular breeder was having a conniption
fit over *nothing*. That's right. They were running around ranting
and raving over something that didn't exist. I stood right there when
they were doing it.. and told them flat out that they were wrong.
Want to know something else? Not once did they bother to go talk to
Leslie herself. This "TOP BREEDER" spent the entire show running
around ranting and raving, and despite being told SEVERAL times by
myself and others to talk to Leslie, they *DIDN'T*.
Anything else you'd like to say? I guess it *is* true that venomous
creatures are immune to their own poison!
Doug Jones
You're right, Laurie and I issued an apology to Doug, under this header
elsewhere in this newsgroup. I also identified the source of my
reference: it's a standing rule that the EC had voted on back in 1990;
apparently I was just confusing the two documents and I apologize for any
misunderstanding that may have caused.
Meredith
How disappointing-even from you I expected better. What a weak response!
It figures that you would jump in-just a matter of time-something I
expected. Mamer can't fight her own battles effectively, so bring in the
discontented masses (Where's Del-with his verbiage of robed society, hoods
and the Klan?). You guys always say and write the same thing. You all
think alike and write alike, but overall say nothing. As I wrote-Garbage
in-Garbage out. It's just sour grapes Doug-you were denied membership
overwhelmingly in a club you despise with a vengeance (only twice has this
ever happened in club history). Your reputation was trashed from your
days of the Collie Review where you managed to bluster, lie, trash and
bash, with no effect whatsoever, other than to "do" yourself and the
magazine in--BUT that's another story!! "You have a pretty good idea who
I am"---Right Doug-sure thing. You might think you know, but you don't.
Remember, I am scores of people each taking their turn, poking and
punishing all of you??? Beside what if you do know?? So, big deal! "You
were there" at the National-Oh excuse me, I forgot that you and Mamer were
roommates (who was on top Doug??) You two had better get your stories
straight--Mamer says nothing happened--THEN you say nothing happened--BUT
THEN you say, "that particular breeder was having a conniption over
nothing"-then you say "they" were running around---which story is it-hers
or yours (story #1 or #2?)---they--them? What's going on here, huh???
Personally I trust my own eyes and ears far more than any of yours! I saw
and heard what happened and I saw the poorly kept dogs (how come none of
her dogs live very long-hmmm?). Oh and BTW--would you like me to post your
private comments made by yourself about Leslie?? Hmmm?? One more thing
about Dan Pierce---Leslie's total irrational behavior during the entire
affair, scared the living daylights out of the investigators and the
prosecuting attorneys AND the witnesses. Too bad Doug-you flunk, but you
never were much good at anything-- except making yourself look like an
idiot. You do it so effectively!!!
BTW--you don't need my web site to determine who I am ---Remember
Doug--you already know!!
Well I should probably jump in here with the Robed Society comment, but
will leave that to another famous person who likes to compare the Club to
the KKK. Remember that little comment, but another supporter like this
Pita drone?
FYI CCAPita, you might want to go back an review some history to see who
REALLY made the KKK comment. Actually it was made on the BEHALF OF THE
CCA to justify the two members in the history of the Club who were
discriminated against. Do you need it spelled out for you.
I certainly hope that DF stand for the great and almighty Dante and not
myself. Actually the Review demise comment was *VERY* revealing.
The Garbage-In, Garbage-Out comment was quite true though. CCAPita has
been spewing garbage ever since she dreamed up this little screen name
for her AOL account. But then what can one expect from a drone troll who
needs to have everything dictated to them.
Would love to continue this little flame war, but feel just a little
guilty about entering a battle of wits with an unarmed opponent.
Besides, it is something that is inappropriate for an open forum. But
then, CCAPita is not a person who can hold their own in a private forum,
at least judging from the way she blocks mail from those she vehemently
maligns in open forums.

Who are these "several hundred people", CCAPITA? And WHY would they
want to harass and censure Leslie?

TRANSLATION: Leslie, be quiet, damn it, we don't want the whole world
to know how the Collie Club of America CONTRIBUTED to Dan Pierce's
HORRIFIC CRIMES.
That just about covers it, doesn't it CCAPITA?
>You prevented Dan from

Let's see here. By your way of thinking, we shouldn't have wasted our
precious time having those silly trials in Nuremberg, either, eh?
I mean, Hitler was already dead, so why should we bother with those
people who were just CLOSE TO HIM, eh?
People like Herman Goering, Joseph Mengela, Adolph Eichmann, Rudolph
Hess, Hans Frank, Wilhelm Frick, Julius Streicher, Walter Funk, Alfred
Jodl, Martin Bormann, Albert Speer, et al.
Yeah, right.
>BORING!
OIC...what happened to Dan Pierce's collies is "boring," eh?
I think that says more about you than about Leslie, eh?
>Quite frankly, I am
>not interested in a pissing contest with you--I am just interested in

If that were true, you'd be SUPPORTING Leslie, not harassing or
censuring her!
> One nice thing about being a troll and being anonymous---you
>can't reduce the argument to racial, sexual or personal attacks because

I think personal attacks are pretty good medicine for the people who
had anything to do with HELPING DAN PIERCE perpetrate his CRIME
against humanity, don't you?
Actually, I think public HANGINGS would be even BETTER medicine.
And there's another thing about being a troll: You can LIE THROUGH
YOUR FREAKIN' TEETH and no one can do much about it, can they?
Why don't you come out from behind that curtain and tell us who you
really are? Are you the Wizard? Or are you the Wicked Witch of the
West?
Yeah, that's what I thought. You're JEANNE WELSH, Lochwynde Collies
(i.e., "Herman Goering").

Yes, I suppose in your twisted imagination, that a 22-15 vote (15 votes
against) could be considered "overwhelming". Let's talk about the
*other* example, shall we? That a "well-known" breeder felt it incumbent
to run around making phone calls trashing this other person's reputation?
Despite the fact that this person had been an officer of several major
collie clubs, and co-chair of the National Seminar? Would you like to
know who was calling around about me? They're now an officer, you know.

Really? I see. So, you admit that I *WOULD* have personal knowledge of
the state of Leslie's dogs. Considering that the youngest dog there was
6.. and the rest were entered in *VETERANS* 8 and older or up.... How is
*that* not living long? I really doubt that you actually bothered to see
the dogs.

this is just another opportunity for you to hook your dirty teeth into

Not even close, although I am flattered. You think those are the only
two people in the country blaming you for the Review's belly up? I don't
think so Doug--the entire country knows of your shameless involvement. It
has been no secret. Besides which, both of those individuals have never
been afraid to attach their names to what they write. Let me put it this
way--so you can understand--- I have a tad more to lose. You have no
idea--no one does--not Leslie--not any of your cohorts! You would
probably be completely surprised! So far, all guesses have been way off
base, but very entertaining!

Actually I am a firm believer that Dan was guilty as hell and should have

get his someday, somewhere, but it won't be because of you people who
continue to rant and rave like lunatics, claiming all the credit for

Barbara,
FORGET????? You want people to take up YOUR standard when, to actually do
the job right from it's foundation, the members of the breed clubs could
and should be policing their own! Most parent clubs don't permit sales to
pet stores or brokers. However, what about the clubs, like the Collie Club,
that DO NOT enforce their own Codes of Ethics??!! Worse yet, they turn a
deliberately blind eye and clap their hands over their collective (at the
Officer level) mouths - "See No Evil; Hear No Evil; Speak No Evil" - and
deliberately AVOID offering the membership a position statement on what, if
any, should be considered when faced with an open and shut case/conviction
of cruelty, abuse and neglect within their own breed!!
The topic originated with the information that Dan's
co-breeder/partner/neighbor/friend Mary Ann Keefer had been reinstated to
full membership without inquiry or examination of her role. Her ROLE is
established in the transcripts, and is even described in the Shingle
letter. But since you seem to need some form of "physical proof", try THIS:
ADDRESS FOR DAN PIERCE:
25391 Penrose Rd.
Quaker City, OH 43773
ADDRESS FOR MARY ANN KEEFER BEFORE APRIL 1997:
25301 Penrose Rd.
Quaker City, OH 43773
Notice anything FAMILIAR Barbara??? Oh, but then you want to FORGET, like
Jeanne Welch. I suppose that you could live down the road (this is a rural
area) from Pierce and DO NOTHING, TOO!!!
You don't like this thread?? Get off of it. Use your "skip" button or
"delete" key. And remain oblivious to the fact that other breeds have their
versions of "Dan Pierce" who DO get away with murder. By using the internet
to share the incident, the outcome and even the gruesome details, it has
helped other people and clubs with a METHOD of monitoring such cases. It
has also educated persons who WANT to PREVENT further acts by such
individuals, no matter how "highly esteemed" because they show/breed/handle
a National Specialty winner, by sharing procedures and resources.
Want an example between PROACTIVE and INACTIVE?? Check out the 10 year
suspension for DAVID RAMSEY, top breeder/handler/owner of BEDLINGTON
TERRIERS for being convicted of 13 counts of cruelty and neglect!! Maybe
the difference was that no animals died. Maybe the difference was that he
was the Group winner at the Garden this year. Or maybe the difference was
that the Bedlington folks couldn't flood the law enforcement authorities or
AKC as well as we could because of sheer numbers (more Collies/fanciers)
through internet/fax/e-mail communications. I don't know but I did try to
locate a parent club contact source through net searches, to no avail. But
hey, 10 years for Ramsey is a helluva lot better than NOTHING -
particularly since Rhode Island has barred him from posessing any animals
and gave him jail time to boot. That was largely due to the media coverage
of the case. So in Pierce's case, given his rural area of Ohio's penchant
for blowing off animal cruelty, if there had been NO coordinated
communications monitoring the spectacle, just what do you think might have
been the result, HHMMMMMMM???????? He would have gotten the plea bargain he
wanted: LITTERING!!!! (No joke here.)
BTW, if Dogman says it's Jeanne Welch then I'm apt to believe him. He's got
a pretty good record when it comes to tracking and killing TROLLS.
Interesting that Welch, who has lurked around the Usegroups, hasn't made
her own reply, but thinks herself pretty handy with a knife via e-mail! She
can take care of herself.

I've spoken to Jeanne Welsh. She was ready to retrieve her bitch when all
hell broke loose! You and your cronies calling the prosecutor and making a
carnival out of the criminal justice system, just to satisfy your own
agenda.
Me thinks you are lonely and have nothing else better to do with your
life. Quit thriving on the negative and enjoy the positive side of your
life. If there is one.

Gosh, I must have been doing something wrong. I did send your little
"blame Doug" over to Leslie Rugg.. it gave her a good laugh. Thanks
for helping lighten up someone's day.
I'm glad you have more to lose.. it'll be that much more fun when I
*do* pull you out into the light! BTW, *don't* think that an AOL
account is going to make you safe. ;-) There's been a history of

No. You are twisting in the wind. You questioned my knowledge of the
state of Leslie's dogs at the '96 National... and then proceeded to
confirm that I would have indeed had such knowledge. Although you
do, typical of trolls, have to cloak it with a lot of innuendo.
You know, I sort of like the KKK motif.. it reminds me of you.. hooded

You *still* haven't answered any serious question in this thread.
You have been ducking and weaving a lot.. getting real defensive
yourself.
Now, let's get *back* to the thread... Do you really think Mary Ann
Keefer *didn't* know about what Dan was doing? Do you approve of her
being re-instated to membership? What is *your* opinion of the lack
of response to Dan's case by the CCA? It was a no-lose proposition
for them... They could've stood on a stump, screaming their heads off
about how horrible it was... and they really didn't have to do
anything else, because he wasn't a member. No suspension procedures
necessary (not that they can get those right)! But, instead....
silence.
So, are you going to continue to throw smoke to cover the CCA?
Doug Jones

So far TROLL, you haven't demonstrated ANYTHING (except your stupidity)
to PROVE your baseless rantings. See, if you're going to say somebody did

THIS is a hoot!! Now the TROLL thinks it's "Dear Abbey". Your definition

subjects which you know nothing about. We call that TROLL TURDS here.

This isn't a "list", moron! It's a "newsgroup". It's not as easy to
control and blither to as moderated e-mail lists are. Here the "real"
people come to share ideas, help others and express opinions WITHOUT your
need for censorship and control of free speech. I didn't think you'd last
too long in the real world of the internet. Time to consider yourself
roadkill on the information super highway, insect. Pissing Dogman off was
a BIG mistake. I'm sure the bully-breeders aren't amused either. And the
only day that the Dan Pierce incident will be a "dead issue" is when he
himself is dead!! We'll make room in the torture chamber for you though,
so don't worry CCAPita/IamPi...@aol.com.
You may be excused now, to go sulk and pout in the sewers with
the other Dan-Fans.
Yeah?? Want a copy of the e-mail she sent me AFTER Dan was convicted,
asking if I knew ANYTHING about the well-being (dead or alive) of her
blue bitch, Feather??? "Set to retrieve"...?? I DON'T THINK SO!!! Pierce
was arrested in June 1996 and convicted and sentenced in January 1997!
Everyone who had dogs they WANTED to "retrieve" from him had done so in
that time. And WELCH asks me in February if *I* know anything!!! You
wasted a long distance phone call, Babs.

Yeppers. I'm POSITIVELY delighted that Welch didn't get away with trying
to bury her connection to Pierce and stop my signature line. And I'm
POSITIVELY thrilled with publicly disclosing the reinstatement of Mary
Ann Keefer to the Collie Club of America membership. That, and their
thundering silence on the Pierce incident, illustrates the complete
disregard the CCA has for it's own breed. And I'm POSITIVELY ROTFLMAO at
the way you've been suckered in to the "head in the sand" position they
all assume at the Club's highest levels. Know why??? Because now I know
that YOU would be a hazard for even a rescue foster home. It takes people
with GUTS to do that job.

Yeah you both would think that's real funny. That's the kind of mentality
you both have. It only took her one year, with you at the helm, to undo
what the previous owner had worked a lifetime for! That's real

thought a magazine could be carried by someone like you--the laughing

Who cares Doug, that your life's work has become hunting down and exposing
AOL trolls. Do you really think this has some kind of relevance to people
in dogs? This is what the Great Review writer is reduced to? You make me
so nervous, I don't know if I can finish this message. Doug, honestly,

Move on Doug. The Dan Pierce issue is dead--gone---buried. It's time for
you to start thinking about something else in life, like maybe breeding
some quality dogs, making a contribution other than making a nuisance of
yourself.

You and your trolls-- who cares?

If I really thought you were interested in hearing my answers to the
questions below, I would be more than happy to communicate with you. But
you are almost like an unintelligible life form. You would be impossible
to communicate with on any rational level. You would listen to nothing I
had to say. If by some chance you did listen, you would contradict
everything without the facts to back it up. One thing has become very
obvious, you are jealous as hell that Mary Ann was let back in the club,
while you were denied membership. Why don't you start your own club---It
could be called The Collie Club of Discontent.

What do you know of the "real world". From your postings, it seems more like you
are doing everything you can *not* to face the real world.
Naw, Pierce isn't going to get "famous" over this, just infamous, as Ted Bundy
or Manson.
What do you consider the "real world", Barbara. I've lived in big cities, small
rural areas and have done a very wide variety of jobs in my life; started
working a 'full time' job at age 12, and worked my way through college without
ANY financial assistance from anyone. The area I live in is certainly
considered a part of the "real world" and the living here is probably much
harsher than anything you've ever acclimated to in your life.

the scenes "hoping it'll all just go away".

And this is the point, isn't it? I have reviewed the website and the
photos are horrific; a thing not exclusive to the collie breed and a
situation that rarely results in the proper punishment of the abusers. Two
years ago, we experienced a similar tragedy with nine Saints rescued and
three found dead and partially decomposed on the ground. The abuser was
sentenced to a fine and barred from breeding for one year; hardly worth
the lives of three Saint Bernards. Guess what he's doing now?
For me, it is not a matter of rehashing the past that becomes of utmost
importance but rather, reacting to subsequent events that are sure to
allow the same atrocities to occur. How does one react to recent events
without reminding others of the original offense? How does one accept
repeated insults by the original offenders when the likely outcome will
be, no doubt, the discovery of dead and mutilated dogs? It would be
another matter altogether if the offenders were no longer involved in
dogs. But, they're here...they're motivated...and they are bound to repeat
their behavior.
While I haven't followed all of the posts on this subject, it seems only
natural and responsible for those who are proactive in this matter, to
react to recent signals by the original offenders, treating them as a
precursor to a similar tragedy. Frankly, I would rather be accused of
annoying a few posters than remain silent and, perhaps, bear partial
responsibility for more dead dogs.

ENJOY!
You bet Barbara...
every community has it's animal abusers, child abusers, rapists, murderers, etc.
to deal with. One of the damn reasons that every community has these problems is
EXACTLY the people like you who bury their heads in the sand. You don't wish to
see the nastiness of this world, so you close your eyes and ignore it, hoping
that it will go away. And until all the different communities *realize* that
they don't have to put up with the garbage from the punks, gangs, or people like
Dan Pierce, it is going to continue to worsen. It's called the devaluation of
life, Barbara. Life, whether human or animal has little meaning to some people
anymore and MANY people have gotten to the point where violence and abuse is
part of everyday life that they *accept*. Sorry, I choose not to accept it,
and I deal with violence and abuse every single day at work. There is little
difference between someone like Dan Pierce, who let those poor dogs suffer, and
the parent who leaves an infant in a dumpster to starve or die of exposure, or
the man that beats his wife (in front of their children) so severely that she
has to be put in intensive care. Willfull and intentional cruelty and abuse are
wrong, and people need to be informed about these things to CORRECT them.
Yeah, I've met people like Dan Pierce before. Took a horsewhip away from one
once and sent him to the hospital after he struck me with it in the process.
Would do it again in a heartbeat to prevent the abuse he was showering on a
horse that refused a jump that was too high for it; or for any other unwarrented
abuse on an animal. I've taken in animals for rehab that had been treated so
cruely that they didn't even look like their species. I've gone with other
Humane Society workers and carefully cut a too-tight collar off of a full grown
Dobie that was starved down to 27 lbs and half dead from thirst because the
owner didn't think it was mean enough and "wanted to punish it for awhile"
(several weeks of practically no food and water... neighbors basically ignored
the situation because they were afreaid of the guy). That guy got jail time...
even though the dog lived.
It is VERY obvious that you have never done rehab/rescue work. If you had, you
would be as outraged as the rest of us. It is also very obvious that you don't
give a sh*t about any animal's welfare except perhaps how it can benefit YOU.
Sorry, I'm not like that... I happen to have a heart, and a conscience. I
wouldn't be able to sleep at all at night if something like what Dan did was
going on in my neighborhood and I knew about it but did nothing.
You are discrediting people who are trying to correct a problem. What have you
got to hide that you do not wish them to make an attempt to stop the abuse? You
are one strange troll, Barbara and an original... I don't believe there are any
other trolls on this group that recommend turning a *blind* eye to abuse.
"Chill out"???
Nah, I've barely started, thank you very much!

Get your facts straight for just once, TROLL. I had already unsubscribed
because you were clearly TROLLING for me and disrupted the e-mail list. I
found out from the moderator that I had been suspended with one of your
close and crazy AOL buddies ONLY TO MAKE IT LOOK GOOD TO YOU KIDDIES!!!

YOU people were in trouble; so I went along with the charade. JOKE'S ON

What a load of TROLL shit!! I'm NOT the one who broke the story; all I
did BEFORE he was convicted was pass on update and resource information
to the Collie list. You, on the other hand, were busy making sure that
your protege had the bucks for HIS private attorney, since you couldn't
find more idiots like yourself to support him morally. How exactly could
I have prevented a prosecutor in another state (or the Judge for that
matter) from giving Pierce jail time, huh?? The congratulations for
getting him off go right to YOU and the other Dan-Fans: Mary Ann Keefer,
Mary Shingle, Melody Nolan,...and the list goes on. YOU take the bows for
the mess you made of things, TROLL!!!

I didn't think you'd last very long TROLL! Running out of urine??
"Telling it like it is". Wipe that sewage out of your eyes, first! Why
don't I tell it like it is. Your a stooge for the power-mad dictators
running the Collie Club of America!! Tell the people here how you and
yours crashed and trashed a DM prjoect making headway in genetic
markers!! Tell them how you and yours pltted and schemed to suspend the
President of the CCA and then got disciplined yourselves by the AKC for
doing it!!! Tell them all how you tried to stop club members, peons to
you, from meeting at the National in '96!!! Tell them how we, the peons,
were told by you, the "gods", that we had no RIGHT to meet!!! But we that
we had to pay for some "Top Twenty" competition that charged it's own
entry fees and kept all the profit while using the site and the set-ups
that WE members had paid for!!! Oh, and don't forget to tell everyone
about how you make the membership PAY for the CCA Secretary's AOL account
(and the shitty web page with NO information or intrinsic value)!!! Yeah,
you arrogant assholes could do all this but you wouldn't DARE to make a
no-lose statement about a guy who murdered puppies at will - and who YOU
gave the Club's highest show award to!! I think I just heard all the hot
air escape from YOUR balloon, TROLL.

What we DO know is that you are nothing more than a lying sack of shit,
TROLL!! You've already gotten posts from people who were actually at the
Nationals, actually saw my dogs, actually handled my dogs, and who have
contradicted EVERYTHING you've said. It's not MY word against a TROLL's
now. And, if just one single iota of this particular lie were true, what
the hell stop YOU and your hordes of followers from calling a Bench Show
Committee at the single LARGEST Collie Club of America National Specialty
show in years?!?! Geeze!! You already had your version of the Gestapo
following me around there, in the name of "wethics"!! I guess since
nothing happened in reality, it has been pretty hard for you to swallow,
until you thought you had an audience who would believe this
ahllucination of yours! People on the newsgroups aren't as stupid as the
crowd you hang with.
Hehehehe...here's another one for you, shit-for-brains: THE undisputed
TOP breeder in the country STILL co-owns one of the Veterans (now 10 and
doing well) with me. He not only stated he saw no problem, but I notice
that he has been removed from the list of people you have been cc'ing
your garbage to. Get a phone call, did we????

So, now you ADMIT you're a troll, TROLL!! Why would I reduce an argument
I'm winning to any racial or sexual slurs?? You're doing that very nicely
yourself, FOOL! You are wrong about a couple of things though. I DO know
that you are a coward. I DO know that you are particularly AFRAID of me.
And I DO know that your obsessive stalking behavior and lunatic ravings
are a form of expressing your ADMIRATION for me. You stole my signature
line (CCAPita). Everyone knows that imitation is the sincerest form of
flattery. Pathetic TROLL. All those mixed emotions must be wreaking havoc
with your antipsychotic medications. If you let me know who and where you
are, I'll have you committed on an Emergency Protective Custody order

co-owners and, once you're found mentally competent, you'll find that you
won't be able to PRINT enough money to save your sorry, chickenshit ass

Well, as there is no libel in newsgroups, since it is a form of free

Actually, if you look in the comments section of the web site, and I have

Yes, and if someone wants the entire subject to "all go away" then they can
put it out of their own minds. It is not for anyone to impose their
personal wishes on an entire group. This has been the effort brought
forward on the Collie e-mail list.
I guess I'd like to know why MANY breed clubs have linked their web sites
to ours but the Collie Club of America, the "guardian" of the Collie breed,
HAS NOT!! Instead, I am threatened with membership loss, maligned within
the Executive Committee and then insulted by my club by the
welcoming back with open arms a lapsed member (Mary Ann Keefer) who refused
to cooperate with authorities AND had the best information as to Pierce's
history of torturing these puppies.
Sorry, but in MY opinion, negligence perpetuates negligence. It won't be
stopped unless someone does something. And a member of a breed club
shouldn't be damned for showing that they care enough to DO SOMETHING!!!

Well, you need to check your facts. Which are, as usual, shakey. Try
2 and a half years. Oh, BTW, don't forget that the founder's wife ran
it for a while, too. Laughed all the way to the bank? You really
need a reality check there! I wasn't at the "helm", nor was I
"carrying" the magazine.
You also show that you *didn't* know the founder of the magazine very
well.

No, now this may be *real* hard for you to understand, but hunting

It involves finding treatments and cures for a very nasty disease.

I see just fine, thank you. I even have a sense of touch.. which is
why I know damn well (from having lifted those dogs onto a grooming

around, you'll see that Leslie has anything but cold feet in fighting
her battles.

Well, I didn't start it. Would you like to know who did? As I
recall, it was one of the District Directors, who, attempting to
justify the voting down of the previous former member, favorably
compared the membership policies of the CCA to the KKK. Somehow,
something like that sticks in your mind. Of course, the Nazi

I see. So, in a few years, when it turns out that there's another
dead litter in Ohio, you will go "thank god, at *least* Doug Jones
stopped making a nuisance of himself!" Because of people like you..
it will happen again.
As to the quality of my dogs.. hmm, that one I just sold to a kennel
that wanted to "clean up the mess left by (deleted) Kennel", the one
that someone else is breeding to because they want something good - as
opposed to what they've been getting going to the "well-known"
kennels, and of course, the litters I have in the works.. well, see
you next year in the ring. BTW, just out of curiosity - how many

I'm "Jealous"? Oh, please. Saddened is more like it. Let's see.. a
National club re-instates (conveniently forgetting a standing rule
along the way) a former member, who, is very closely involved with one
of the nastiest abuse cases seen. Lived nearby, co-owned dogs, was a
regular visitor, refused to testify in the case.. oh yes, did I forget
that she had the same lawyer as Dan? That she was running back from
the DA to the lawyer? I guess everyone else did, too. But, what the
heck, welcome her back into the club with open arms, because she
wasn't arrested or convicted of animal cruelty. All is forgiven and
forgotten! Come to think of it, neither was Joe Latz arrested or
convicted. I'm sure I'll see *his* name in the Yearbook soon.
Speaking of the "Collie Club of Discontent".. hmm, have you looked at
the membership figures lately? You should.

no, not the "same 'ol people". There has been replies on the subject from quite
a few on the group.
As I asked, why do you and *one* other poster want it buried? As long as there
is abuse, there will be those who will educate others as to its existance. If it
saves just ONE dog's life, then the effort is worth it. If it prevents just ONE
person from committing abuse (for fear he/she will go to jail) then it is worth
the effort.

Hence the "and/or" part of my original question. Besides, for newbies, it's only
fair they have an idea of what's been happening in the newsgroups several months
ago. I have no problem with discussing what you'd consider old news - it's new
news to many. Killfile the thread if you don't want to read it. Heck, everyone

Sure - find whoever you like to be objectionable. But she has a right to post
and do whatever she wants to with her web site. In the case of the Pierce
Collies, it's fair warning to new dog owners to be careful who they buy their
puppies from and train their dogs with, even and especially people who claim to
be "professionals" or "experts." I would never buy from a breeder no matter how
legitimate - prefer to adopt from a shelter any time. Say again, who said you
had to read her posts? I don't! - Michelle

Yes, they should be reminded. Absolutely. You know, *you* don't HAVE to
read any posts that you don't want to, but the new people to the group
may not have heard about this horrendous occurance. Simply don't read
any thread that "offends" your sensibilities.
NO ONE SHOULD FORGET THESE THESE DOGS AND THIS EVIL MAN. You can still
move on to "positive" issues while NEVER EVER forgetting this situation.
Maybe the CCA people want to forget about it (ashamed, maybe?), but that
doesn't mean that the majority of other dog people want to. And the CCA
ought to be the one spreading the word the MOST, not trying to sweep it
under the carpet.

We may NEVER have found out about Dan Pierce if it weren't for people

Hi Jane,
It's awful when anybody abuses or kills animals. They don't have to be a
reputable breeder for the crime to be sickening.
A dog's life is just that. As I said, every community has had a Pierce
type of experience. Rehashing the tragedy over and over helps to lose the
effectiveness of the problem.
Everyone is tired of hearing about it. That's my only point.

I don't much like being called nobody.....and there are a few more
"nobodies" who've also thrown in their .02 worth. Perhaps not as
eloquently or as frequently as Terri, Leslie, Dogman and Cat.....
The Dan Pierce situation is FAR from over. Your insistance that it IS is
ludicrous. What he did to those dogs is forever, and that fact that he's
trying, through his "fronts", to get his hands on MORE dogs to abuse, is
nothing short of criminal. As soon as we "move on" we set the stage for
him (and others) to continue their cruelty. And next time they'll know
better how to cover it up.....
Disgusting crawly things thrive in the dark. But shine the light on them
and they scuttle away. We must follow people like Dan Pierce with the
light until there are no dark places for them to hide.

No, she's not. In fact, she's as dumb as a fence post.
AND she chose the wrong people to try and intimidate!
Which is why Im asking EVERYONE to copy the site and pictures
of the Pierce Collies, INCLUDING "BABS" posts to every single
place you frequent. Laundromats, Bowling Alleys, Work, Supermarket
bulletin boards, Humane shelters, Vet's offices, Petstores, EVERYWHERE!
Do NOT let this silly minded fool intimidate you into thinking she can

can let this matter rest and be forgotten!

thing addressed in every single tabloid, every single local newspaper,

abuse!

That's BULL CA CA. The DAN PIERCE incident is in a class all by
itself. And here's why.
Because as TRAGIC as this was by itself, as absolutely sickening to
the human sensibility as this incident was by itself, thanks to people
like YOU and the many other DAN PIERCE co-conspirators at the CCA,
like Jeanne Welch, this incident is about to be REPEATED again!
That's what makes this incident so UNIQUE to any others that I've ever
even heard of. The absolute NONCHALANCE of the CCA (and other sickos
like you Babs) regarding this matter is almost as sickening as the
actual incident itself!
And now, to see this incident about to be REPEATED, thanks to the
COMPLICITY of the CCA and the "Dan Fans," puts THIS incident in a
class all by itself!
The horror. The horror.
>There are sick people everywhere.
That may be true, but there appears to be a CLUSTER of sick people at
the CCA, eh?
I wonder what the demographers would say about that? Hmnnnnnn.
>And fools like you, who have never been exposed to the real world
> (beyond a keyboard) get all excited and make people like Pierce famous.
Your clairvoyance is on a par with your ignorance, Babs. Of course,
if the "real world" meant being confined to some Nut Farm surrounded
by a moat, no, I've never been to one. But the odds are good that
YOU have, ain't that right, Babs?
Only someone totally desensitized to pain and suffering, like in
LOBOTOMIZED, could remain so absolutely nonchalant about what happened
to those DAN PIERCE collies!
I may, indeed, be a fool, Babs, but I'd rather be a fool than a cruel,
compassionless, nonchalant nazi-bastard with no heart.
Like you, Babs.
>BTW, how did you get along with your father?
>
>-Barbara Greenall
Do you fancy yourself some kind of amateur psychologist, Babs? Or are
you simply running out of things to say?
Because if it weren't for all your many uses of phrases like "hey
girl" and "how did you get along with your father/mother" it's very
clear that you really don't have much to say, do you, Babs?
That's what I thought. Geeez.

Unfortunately, Babs, I know that. How? Because all those dead
collies, those same collies that were slowly starved to death and
eaten by maggots, yes, DAN PIERCE'S collies, didn't seem to "bother"
you very much either, eh?
So what could being called a few names possibly do to you compared to
that, eh?

Speaking from experience TROLL? Time to change your screen name

publisher wants out, too. Ever think it's people like you who drive

Here's a thought, since I know you can't give birth to one on your own:
why don't YOU take over the CCA BULLETIN when it's present Editor bails
out next year. Now, since Doug isn't a CCA member he can't be in the
remotest neighborhood of responsibility for the loss of yet ANOTHER
Editor!!! EGADS!!!! Then we would all be subject to such imbecilic tripe
as "Whelping Puppies With Carmen Leonard..."; and my personal favorite,
the JAVMA-published (NOT!!) reprint of bloat first aid, developed and
supported by the Great Dane Club of America. They, who had the foresight
and openness of mind to look at a serious problem without worrying about
*who* got the credit!!! Naaawww... with you at the helm of the BULLETIN
we'll be awash in self-agrandizing ad-libs from Schwartz about how
healthy *she* has single-handedly made the breed (again, NOT!!!)

they get your IP, your covers will be pulled and you'll be bare-ass NAKED

cloud the issue on this thread: the absolute responsibility incumbent
upon the Collie Club of America to defend and protect it's breed and

How's that, TROLL?? There were a LOT of writers and contributors to the

Forgetting the regular columnists intentionally??? Want everyone to think
that you are some kind of "newbie" who never heard of the Review until 4

Oh, I see... you spew specious LIES which are handily refuted by other

No TROLL!!! The Dan Pierce issue will NEVER be dead--gone--buried. Just
you, MAGGOT SHIT!!! The one reality which doesn't seem to have sunk
through to that poverty of intellect you call a brain is that REAL dog
people will ALWAYS care about the brutal savagery Pierce perpetrated; and
the disgraceful stain that the CCA has left on the carpet for all to see
and smell in their recognitiona and handling of the matter....INCLUDING

Terri, why is it now so important to try and lander my name? I didn't
starve the Pierce Collies. I didn't commit any crimes. I didn't badger and
harass the prosecutors in this case. Your cronies did. And everytime you

Who hurt you, Terri? Who abused you? Were you a child or did it happen
recently? Pull yourself together from this sheer madness and try and
figure out who you really are. Think of those Collies. What does it make
you "feel" like? What does it really remind you of? The others on these
groups aren't acting like you. Have you considered the possibility you
might have a serious emotional problem?

Terri, I don't support animal abuse. Every community has some deviant who
enjoys abusing animals and it's up to the criminal justice system to take
care of the problem, not a self-appointed vigilante like you, who has
become so obsessed, you are unable to control yourself or see the harm
your are doing to yourself and others.

Uh, we gotta remember here folks that although Pierce was found guilty,
the Ramseys have not yet been charged, let alone convicted. I'm not

SOMEBODY please give this *person* a definition of the term "cover-up". Oh never
mind... I'll do it.
From Webster's- Cover up: to cover entirely, to keep blunders, crimes, facts,
etc. from being known. To conceal information
Now Barbara, according to Webster's dictionary (and I'm sure the "Watergate"
folks could give you an even more 'in depth' definition), Terri would not be
considered a liar in this case, because you are indeep trying to get this

No one, not ever should be allowed to forget Pierce and what was done to
those poor Collies. I've followed this entire thread and haven't
commented before simply because like you, I agree that Leslie and Dogman
are speaking for all of us. May Pierce burn in hell and all of his

I believe that in the AKC Gazette (don't remember which issue, but
recent) Ramsey was listed as suspended as a result of the court case. As
I recall, you are correct in that he wasn't CONVICTED of cruelty, but
used one of those legal "outs" (maybe nolo contendre?)....he had to have
been charged to plea (or whatever it was he did), and the AKC won't
suspend until after the court case is over.
I'll have to see if I still have that Gazette at the house....and post
the details if I can find it. Or maybe someone else has it at their
fingertips?
Well then you won't mind if I post some photos of dead children who were
killed in a bloody crash, and hit by a drunk driver? I'll post them every
night so we can remind everyone not to drive drunk? My brother in law
showed me the photos, he's a trooper.
That OK with you, girl? Eventually you might wish to see some ~positive~

such behavior, they are losing ground! Therefore, Mamer, the only part of
your post that I will deal with are the outright lies. Take a deep
breath-wipe that spit off your face and count to 10-THEN TAKE CONTROL OF
YOURSELF.
Lie #1- I was never on the old Collie List-not as a subscriber or as a
poster. Not only can this be verified by the list moderator, but by the
scores of people subscribing to the list. No forwarded posts were made.
I e-mailed you privately twice and once recently-nothing more. If you are
attempting to make a case that I have been dogging you --good luck. If
you do happen to have posts I supposedly made to the List, they are
completely forged. Too many people were on that list for you to get away
with lying about this one.
Lie #2- you were suspended, from the old Collie list (moderator Ashley
McClure) along with another party because the two of you were going back
and forth and had both been warned by the moderator. You did not
unsubscribe because I was supposedly "trolling" you.
Lie #3- I am sure the hackers of the DES encryption code would really want
to waste their time finding out my identity!
Lie #4- The DM project was dumped because of the Veterinarian involved.
The club chose to take their chances with a more reliable Veterinarian
and situation, as the previous one lost her tenure.
Lie #5- No one purposely schemed to suspend the previous President--she
did it all by herself, by not following the constitution and by her
mean-spirited actions.
Lie #6- The "club peons" did meet at the 1996 National-only 32 people
showed up. Out of this number, a majority was there simply out of
curiosity. The purpose of the club is not to provide a forum or meeting
place for a bunch of dissidents and malcontents.
Lie #7- I had nothing to do with the Dan Pierce case-not with him
personally or his attorney's-nor have I supported him nor am I a fan of
his. I don't even know the man. Why would I give him money for an
attorney? I have absolutely no involvement or any connection with that
case in any stretch of the imagination.
Lie #8- DAN PIERCE IS NOT, WAS NOT AND NEVER HAS BEEN A MEMBER OF THE
COLLIE CLUB OF AMERICA. I notice you conveniently fail to ever mention
this fact in your tirades. Why or what could the club do in the case of a
person that is not a member? Absolutely nothing!! If he had been a
member, the club would have dealt with it. As it was, the club had
absolutely no authority or power to do one single thing to the man!! FYI,
the Club secretary did acknowledge in the April Bulletin that the AKC had
suspended him. What else did you want her to do? Go out and shoot
somebody?
Lie #9- Dan Pierce happened to be the co-breeder of the Best Of Breed
winner at the 1994 National Specialty. He didn't own or co-own the dog,
as you so imply. Besides which, this win was a full two years prior to
his arrest.
Lie #10- Anyone who disagrees with you is a "Dan Fan"--I noticed the
typical response on this newsgroup is if anyone doesn't agree with your
methods or tactics, they are automatically labeled a "Dan Fan". You
aren't even close on this one. This is so lubricous that I won't go
into it--except to mention that 99.9% of all Collie breeders share in your
contempt and abhorrence of Dan. However, I don't know of one rational
individual that approves of your methods-your own kangaroo court right
here on this newsgroup--trying and convicting others that are not in the
slightest way connected to the Pierce case. A good case in point is one
of the posts stating they will do T-shirts, bumper stickers, signs in
Laundromats, etc. linking a lady who doesn't even own a Collie to the
Pierce case. This is real rational, sane behavior!! It is this kind of
behavior that turns off most normal people. I think the appropriate term
for this is "backlash". Look it up. While you are at it, look up
"Kangaroo Court".
Lie #11- Mary Ann Keefer was never arrested, tried or convicted of any
animal abuse or cruelty charges. YOU Leslie Mamer are very lucky she has
never hired an attorney to go after you, because she would have an
excellent case, as would the others involved that you continually harass
and link to Dan's crimes that are his crimes alone.
Lie #12- Quote from you-- "INCLUDING but not limited to the
no-questions-asked reinstatement of a member already proven to have been
enmeshed in his crimes." "Already proven?" When did this happen-was there
a trial that I missed? A real trial or Mamer's Kangaroo Court? BTW,
Mary Ann was reinstated to the club, on a perfectly legal basis. She had
until April 1, 1997 to pay her dues on a reinstatement. The only year she
missed was 1996. So she had to pay by the next year's dues deadline.
Doug wasn't afforded the same privilege because several years had lapsed
between his membership and reapplication. That's why he was revoted on.
It is the same for everyone-no exceptions made.
Lie #13- I have not gotten any posts from people who saw your dogs at the
National. All I am aware of is one person, your roommate at that
National, who made comments right here on this newsgroup. Check it out.
Lie #14- At the 1996 National there was much two-do over the state of your
dogs. You think you are so smart--the breeder to which I have been
referring is not the one you think. I am referring to Marion Durholz, who
was overheard screaming at you regarding the conditions of your dogs. She
has made no secret of her contempt for you. Say what you want, but even
your buddy Doug admitted there was a commotion and one breeder was having
a conniption.
Lie #15- I have "Admiration (?)" for a whacked-out, old, has-been,
dried-up psycho living an out of control, deranged life in the middle of
Nebraska, with nothing better to do than to rail like a complete
lunatic?---not even close Mamer-Fortunately, not in this lifetime!!
I told you Mamer, I will not get into it with you nor will I debate this
with you any longer. It is impossible to argue intelligently or
effectively with someone that fabricates and doesn't tell the entire
truth. Compounding the lies is your complete irrational behavior-you are
on emotional overload. Soon we will be reading about your massive heart
attack---but the club will be sure to send flowers (I can't promise,
though-we'll have to take a vote!)! Basically any discussion with you is
a complete waste of time. Any further argument would only serve to inform
others and I can tell from the other postings on this newsgroup that it
would be a complete waste of time. Have a nice day, Mamer! I am outta
here!!

No, Terri. I am really concerned for you. Your obsession with the Collies
is not healthy. Do you see others on this group, acting like you? The
frustration you are *feeling* is the result of something else in your life
that made you feel helpless, and now you are acting out in a rage.

Mumbo-jumbo? Isn't that another term Dogman uses frequently? You need to

You are now so out of control you have actually lost your ability to
logically deal with the Pierce Collies. I am not a Collie owner. I am not
a member of the CCA, nor do I know anyone personally, who is. I have been
receiving numerous letters from people who have taken different positions
about the Pierce Collies.
If you print my name in your flyers as someone who is involved in a
coverup, then you'd be a liar, period. I have no involvement with the
Pierce Collies. The matter was handled by the courts and many are unhappy
with the way the prosecutors dealt with this. Do you know why the
prosecutors backed off and offered Pierce a plea? Because they were
suspicious of the screaming lunatics who were loudly demanding hard
jailtime fir him. They smelled something funny. Do you blame them?

There you are again. So pitiful and out of control, suggesting I am
involved in a coverup.
Terri, let's pretend you are driving home from work, noticed cars in the
road, slow down and witness three dead children, covered with blood and
mangled, who were just killed by a drunk driver. Would you be as angry as
you are now? Would you be printing fliers and brochures, demanding this
drunk driver be "put away" for life? Or would you be contacting your
legislators, in an effort to have harsher laws put in force? Why do you
choose impulsive, quick acting, and irrational methods, instead of ways to
really combat the issue for good?

That's a result of anger. And now you step out into the spotlight to
slander me when I have no connection with the Pierce Collies. Some
therapy, possibly medication, and a vacation is what your would benefits
from now. Not slandering, yelling, and seeking instant gratification that
will void your overall cause. Wake up, please.

I don't think so Terri. I know deep down inside you are in pain. I feel
bad that you are hurting so much.

Yes, Terri. Remember my name. Barbara Greenall. Someone who tried to help
you and talk some logical sense into your distorted logic. What little
logic is actually left. I have searched up some dejanews articles, along
with letters from others, and have learned you became angry at some other
users, and encouraged Dogman to construct a website containing a "Sybil"
list.
We will stop for now. And maybe others will know what your are all about.
A pitiful, irrational woman who doesn't know why she's reacting the way
she is, all over some Collies that were abused and starved.
Think of those Collies, Terri. Think real hard. And when you can connect
those Collies to a pattern of past abuse in your life, you can be set
free. Let it go, Terri and rid yourself of the pain and torure that's
drving you to do irrational things.
