They are usually characterized by no video on the monitor (this could also be due to the system hanging) or un-synchronized video.

Before doing this, make sure you know what the maximum horizontal and vertical frequencies of your monitor are.

Do pinnipeds bite?

PMMC - FAQ
Yes! This is one of the reasons you need to keep your distance from them. These animals bite out of self-defense rather than a desire to attack. At the Center, we wear protective clothing when working with the animals. We do not talk to the animals or pet them. These are wild animals and will be returned to their natural habitat. Animals that are aggressive have a better chance of survival in the wild.

I was told that getting a Rescue avoided all the costs and problems of a puppy. Is that true?

Bearded Collie Rescue FAQ
The answer is sometimes yes and sometimes no. Lets look at some of the reasoning you might have seen on the Internet or in books. Rescues are housebroken - They can be or maybe not. Sometimes rescues have lived their entire life outside in someone's yard chained to a fence. Rescue will sometimes foster these dogs, or sometimes kennel them. Even if they learn potty training in that situation, there is no guaranteed they will respect you home the same way.
