griffo 28 Posted April 1, 2010 Report Share Posted April 1, 2010 i just read this week's cmw and realised i've just spent 2quid to read an article that was the biggest blow of hot air up someones own a#se i have ever seen!!!! how does the cmw justify a halfpage spread on a guy who just goes on about how good his dog is and how he can only be likened to chippers nell! is this crap only impressing teenagers and the impressionable?! After something like the above is usually mentioned an offer like " come and see how good the dog is" or "what can your dog do?" but the point is why brag and call your dog a "potfillers dream" is it in some attempt to get a better price for pups or get more stud fees possibly??? FFS lots of boys have good dogs but they don't self publicise their own dogs! most of the decent ones don't anyway! please i welcome your thoughts? cheers Quote Link to post

People have followed his dogs progress for a while. he might be a very nice guy but the article does read like ,i have the best dog,arri is sh#t hot even after injury blah blah........ i don't think you learn anything from the article and its just a free advert, if he is so knowledgable why doesn't he write about things to look for in dogs or suggest things to do not just go on about how good his dog is?! this isn't even about him its about the crap they publish week in week out Quote Link to post

hedz31 1,308 Posted April 1, 2010 Report Share Posted April 1, 2010 ive had the cmw for years and to be honest i dont know why i get it any more,i think its just habit the edrd is a far superior magazine,i did think he was blowing his dog up far to much in the arris return article and the other writers in there are boring as hell mediocre articles,Penny taylor rambles on every week,the fella Kirk cameron i have no idea how he has got to write articles in the countrymans he just potters about with a plummer terrier in his articles telling us how the dog marks here and the dog marks there and oh he catchs a single rat how the hell is that a good read every week then every now and then you get dross of David hancock,i think they need to have a big shape up in that magazine or they will start losing alot of readers they need knew writers 100% regards hedz Quote Link to post
