Those than can, do. Those that can't, bully
Some people may be Googling my name and coming up with K9 Magazine, Dog Magazine.net, Dognews.co uk, Dogchat and K9 Media plus a number of other organisation with the same information. They are all the same organisation. Owned by a sociopath called Ryan O'Meara who is a wannabee trainer
Despite the subterfuge of using different names that suggests these reports are coming from different sources, using headlines such as "Stan Rawlinson Complaints Rise". All the complaints are from one and the same organisation. owned by the same person. That in itself shows just how devious, dishonest, and vicious these small minded people are.
Ex K9 Magazine editor and K9 Media boss Ryan O'Meara, a well known cyber bully, and supporter of Dog Abuse has made lying and unprofessional allegations against my name and my company, which are meant to harm my position and standing as a full time professional behaviourist and dog obedience trainer. In my opinion this man is clearly demonstrating typical bullying sociopathic behaviour

Let me make it perfectly clear, It is not acceptable to use pain, fear, and subjugation to train a dog! It is not just the tools they used but the methods and the dogs they used them on. K9 and its organisations are trying to denigrate and destroy me because I stood up and was counted. I have always fought cruelty, abuse and stupidity. However large the organisation. I will not stop now, just because they are attacking me.
I do not use the word liar lightly. I am aware that if I use it and it is not true then I could be sued for libel and defamation. I have asked them to sue me over my statements needless to say these bully boys didn't have the bottle.
Those who know me well are aware I will not shirk naming any organisation or individual that I believe is having a serious detrimental effect or is abusing or allowing others to abuse our pets. O'Meara recently offered to remove all the slurs and lies about me if I removed the rebuttal.
Only a bully and a sociopath would start a vendetta against me for pointing out my concerns about this mans ability and knowledge. Which resulted in my insistence he remove all my articles, my name and work from his magazine and media companies. I also made him remove me from their panel of experts, I would no more sully my name by being allied to second rate organisations than I would abuse a dog.
Both the magazine called K9 and the forum which he personally moderated, supported and printed flawed and dangerous advice. The forum he ran supported an individual well known for dog abuse. This organisation which includes K9 media total pet publishing and dogsblog, showed lack of knowledge, and published dangerous recommendations.
To support dog abuse and allow a, individual to show dogs with shock collars round their genitals and a partially blind and deaf dog being shocked into submission this bullying individual brags that he owns a group of organisations that claim that they are the companies that a dog would choose. if you wanted to die through being massively overweight or have your personality and confidence erased through shocks to your genitals then that statement would be correct.
I have seen and heard him recently in the Daily Mail and on Radio stating he is the Editor of K9 Magazine. Yet more lies. He is not the editor of K9 Magazine at all. He was ousted from that job some time ago. I am not the first person to be cyber bullied by this man and I doubt I will be the last.
I would not recommend anyone to take any advice from anything Ryan O'Meara is involved in. He is not a dog trainer despite constanly stating he is.and is certainly not a behaviourist. He has no formal qualifications in any of these roles, and does not have a practice or school in any of these disciplines. His advice through his online magazines and K9 Media company is frankly ludicrous and dangerous.
My Website and its content is testament to my ability and expertise. My rankings in Google are also a strong guide to the quality of my advice and the depth of my knowledge
. Try and find anything that O'Meara has produced or written that has anywhere near the same impact, quality, or depth.
I totally and utterly refute these scurrilous and bullying accusations.
It really could not get any worse for this individual and his organisations. This what has happened since they started the vendetta against me.
Ryan O'Meara Loses Top Job at K9 Magazine.
K9 Media's Ryan O'Meara Sneers at the very People that buy their products.
K9 Magazine publishes Dangerous Advice.
This man and his organisations have stopped printing K9 Magazine and it is just another E-Mag like the many dreary thousands on the Internet. He has been shunted out of the position of chief executive of K9 Magazine and appears to be trying to launch another on line mag called Total Dog Magazine. I tried to find out more about Total Dog but the piece has been suspended. See here Telegraph. I wonder why? Now he launces yet another company all oif these are just websites. Total Pet Publishing. He thinks by changing his companies name he can get away from the accusations levelled against him.
What I am concerned about is that they are being supported by Butchers Tripe a company who manufacture a well known brand of dog food. Are Butchers aware that Ryan O'Meara and K9 Magazine advises feeding young dogs up to their eyeballs, with the resultant obesity and the possibility of an early death that these actions can cause?
Despite the fact I have written to K9 Media and supplied information that they are totally incorrect in their advice. This was confirmed by one of the Worlds leading experts on nutrition and feeding regimes, an expert that Ryan O'Meara has acknowledged was a highly credible source. Just how dangerous and foolish are K9 Magazine and K9Media when they ignore the fears of a leading UK behaviourist and a published world expert on nutrition, both with the same concerns.
Sign up to anything that he is involved in and you would be supporting a bullying, sociopathic individual and organisation that supported posting videos on their forum that would sicken most right minded people.
Some people may be Googling my name and coming up with K9 Magazine, Dog Magazine.net, Dognews.co uk, Dogchat and K9 Media plus a number of other organisation with the same information. They are all the same organisation.
The reasons for their attack is simple.
I exposed them and their MD O'Meara on K9s forum for not censoring what I personally believe was cruelty and dog abuse. And for publishing advice in their magazine K9 and on their online magazine that was in my opinion foolhardy and dangerous to our pets. I resigned from K9s panel of experts and their forum. And insisted they removed all my articles, which they had praised me highly saying I was .
Two other professional trainers resigned at the same time because of the dangerous advice and the behaviour and dog abuse allowed by the controllers of that forum, who are Ryan O'Meara, K9 Magazine K9 Media.
It is not just the fact of the shock, prong, and choke collars that were being used in home made videos. But the way they were used and abused without censor or concern from what bills itself as a magazine that cares about the welfare of our pets. That is like putting Herod in charge of child welfare.
This organisations website's and forum is where individuals made recommendations and showed DVD clips using shock, prong, and choke collars, even on pups and a disabled dog. This behaviour was ignored by the K9 team. The moderator who is also the MD, Ryan O'Meara, thereby by relationship K9 Magazine and all their other owned subsidiaries. They supported and gave the oxygen of publicity to the perpetrators of what could only described as animal cruelty. These people were encouraged to air and show their disgusting training tactics on O'Meara's own forum.
Ryan O'Meara
even suggested ignoring manufacturers guidelines on the use of shock collars on aggressive dogs. DVD clips were shown and allowed by a contributor Dennis Carthy with a Doberman with shock collars, one on the neck and the other on the groin. He also showed clips of a partially blind and deaf dog being shocked by an electronic collar. That made me feel sick to my stomach.
In the end they had to ban Dennis Carthy from their forum. Not for the lies and cruelty, but for sending indecent material of a sexual nature to a 13 year old little girl that posted on their forum. She should never have been allowed on such a forum in the first place.

Please tell Ryan O'Meara what you think about dog abuse and cyber bullying ryan@k9media.net. Or share it on Twitter and Facebook and let this man be stopped from giving potentially fatal advice.
What is Cyber Bullying?
Definition:
"Cyberbullying involves the use of information and communication technologies such as e-mail, cell phone and pager text messages, instant messaging (IM), defamatory personal Web sites, and defamatory online personal polling Web sites, to support deliberate, repeated, and hostile behaviour by an individual or group, that is intended to harm others."
Bill Belsey, Cyberbullying Expert
Dear Stan,
I just stumbled across your website as I was doing research on dog care for my animal welfare website, which is currently under construction. Amongst the numerous causes (sadly too many), I also have a section titled Responsible Pet Care.
I much enjoyed reading your well-informed tips and advise, showing clearly how experienced you are. Not only that, I got the sense immediately that you genuinely care about dogs.
If it was okay with you, I'd like to have a link from my site to yours, specifically the "Superb Collection of Tips for Dogs and Cats". I'll send you details of my site once it has gone live, which will hopefully be in November of this year.
It can't be easy to have to deal with people such as Ryan O'Meara and his associates. Fair play to you for not backing off and for speaking out, taking a stance against unscrupulous individuals. Your character and ethics will ultimately stand out over this man's dishonest and underhanded tactics.
I'm delighted to have found your website Stan and will continue to read your views and advise with great interest! Your knowledge and wisdom are benefitting many canines (and their owners) no doubt and given the quality of the information, there can only be positive outcomes.
With kind regards
Marianne
