This is a question Common

Freddy Woo writes, "My wife thinks calling the front room a lounge is common. Worse, a friend of hers recently admonished her daughter for calling a toilet, a toilet. Lavatory darling. It's lavatory."

My own mother refused to let me use the word 'oblong' instead of 'rectangle'. Which is just odd, to be honest.

What stuff do you think is common?

What do you mean by "They're 'terriers', what did you expect?"?
Most terriers are bred for hunting.
Staffies aren't, they were bred for fighting.

Terriers are great for ratting, but...
..."guarding, herding, retrieving, hunting, sled pulling"?

If you want a dog that guards get a rottweiler/doberman
If you want a dog that herds get a sheepdog
If you want a dog that retrieves get a retriever
If you want a dog that pulls sleds get a husky

What? Pull your head in.
I'm not recommending a terrier for guarding, retrieving, herding or sled pulling.

Where have I said that?

ffs
