"When they pair off with mating partners, often one or several drakes will end up "left out". This group will sometimes target an isolated female duck: chasing, pestering and pecking at her until she weakens (a phenomenon referred to by researchers as rape flight), at which point each male will take turns copulating with the female. Male mallards will also occasionally chase other males in the same way. (In one documented case, a male mallard copulated with another male he was chasing after said male had been killed when he flew into a glass window.)"
Blue. Not mine but how could you not love this face? Her ears were cropped before I got her. I wish she still had them bc it's my favorite way to aggravate my other dog :sad2:
I knew there was a reason I didn't like loner ducks.. 
Also this just occured to me.. I was on the bus the other week just after a massive storm came through.. we were on sort of a train track for buses so I couldn't get off, but I saw a little puppy by the water and was all playful looking like he was going to jump into the water
The current was really strong and I don't know if he did or not.. I couldn't see anyone near him.. sad..

It's not really banned here but it is illegal to do it with most breeds of dogs here. Only certain breeds like Dobermans are allowed to get the ears clipped. Although some pits do look nice with the ears clipped i still think it's dumb and still would not do it with my own dogs. I know there's alot of fuckin idiots out there that will mickey mouse it and clip the ears of the puppies themselves when the pups are still young by tying rubber bands around the ear really tight until the ear dries up and falls on it's own. I swear it's idiots like them that also raise pits up the wrong way and then the dog ends up killing somebody and then just add to the bad rep that pits get.
Yes, dog fighters will normally clip the ears off of the pups so that when the dog grows up there's less of a chance that the other dog will get ahold of the dogs ears during a fight. Even if the dogs ears are not clipped usually the ears are the first to get ripped off during a fight since it's one of the parts of the dogs face that the other dog normally gets ahold of during a fight. These poor dogs are raised since puppies to be fighters by being beaten on a regular basis so the dog trusts nobody, in some cases will be fed steroids during it's teenage years and will have weights strapped to the sides of its body so it will be buffed up by the time it's an adult, and of course if the dog just happens to lose a fight that pretty much will be the end of his life since the dog fighter will normally just kill the dog after the losing fight. I swear i wish a horrible horrible death to anybody who actually enjoys putting these animals in fights against each other!
^I'm pretty sure she was going to be used for fighting. I took her from my cousins drug dealer boyfriend who kept her in a crate all day.
I want to video my dogs when I get home. You know those videos on youtube where the owner comes home after being gone a long time and the dogs go nuts? My dogs do that every-single-day. My weiner dog at my parents house I see maybe once every few months and he just comes up to me like "sup...pet me" then he's done with me unless I have food.
I have this kind of dog too
I would not have picked her. She's mixed with spaniel and I've had bad experiences with them. She wasn't a shelter dog...she came from a pet store. She was ridiculously expensive butttt she was a gift. I wanted so bad to be like take her back I don't want her but I couldn't do it. ESPECIALLY when she chewed up a $200 flat iron.
They get along well but neither would protect me if an intruder ever came in my house...they would both just lick him and lay on their backs for him to rub their tummy.
