BANNED FOR NOT MAILING PRODUCTS PURCHASED | Do you get ridiculed... for having more them one pet? We got together with family for Easter and I was telling my SIL about Baby and how we were able to take her in. Well she said " You got another dog??" Like having 3 dogs is bad or something? I felt like she was saying if we have more then 1 dog, were dirty or something. I take very good care of my babies! They get weekly baths and are very spoiled! I do not let them just rome the house when were gone. For the most part they potty outside or on pee pads, occasionally they have a accident, but it get's cleaned up right away. Anyways, she was just being a snobby B%&(()% and I did not appreciate it! Anyone else feel this way? |

| My aunt made a coment when i mentioned that we were getting another doggie. She's always very critical of everyone, but it still ticked me off. Try to shake it off and remember that your pups love you no matter what SIL think |

My Tiny Treasures Donating Member | ALL THE TIME I'm to the point now where I could care less. As long as MY FAMILY is happy then the rest can...you know what When we have company now I just put my dogs in their room. Company thinks its because I don't want my dogs to bother them.....real reason? I don't want the company to bother MY DOGS! |

| Dogs arent our whole lives, but they make our lives whole lol we love having dogs because we love dogs, and people that are mean about it are just jealous. My friends wanted me to go on a trip to mexico with them, and i told them i couldnt because i had to take care of my dog and they all started yelling at me to leave "it" at a kennel.. i didnt go with them and i later found new friends who understood |

| Some people just don't 'get it'. For some reason, they can't feel a special attraction to an animal. Too bad for them...it's their loss. |

BANNED FOR NOT MAILING PRODUCTS PURCHASED | This is a woman who had her cat put to sleep when she (SIL) had her 1st baby! That should tell you something! I agree, I don't care what other people say, I know my dogs are very loved and very well taken care of! |

| Everyone that knows me , knows I am a animal lover. I have miniature donkeys and a miniature horse. I have a inside cat and several barn cats. I have Gordon and plan to add a girl Yorkie.....I say later but I could change my mind at anytime and get one. I ditto what Lexi said... I respect non-animal people ....I don't bring my animals to their house or impose my animals on them. I expect the same respect from them.

| I agree, as long as you are happy. I only want one dog but if you want more than one, so what?! That is your preference. People who are not used to animals say dumb things. My family aren't pet lovers at all, so you can imagine the crap I got when I said I was getting ONE! I got together with family yesterday and my great aunt said " I heard you got a mutt" So you know I was pissed right? I told her "I do not have a MUTT I have a dog. A mutt is a mixed breed, my dog is a full breed" She said "well he's a mutt to me." Whatever lady...is what I was thinking.I had to respect her because she is older.

| haha yes all the time. my hubbys family doesnt think a house with dogs or cats no matter how many can be clean especially enough for them. And im a firm beleiver that one should always have atleast one dog but i go anywhere from 1-3 usually. right now i have 2. and hubby likes cats and ive never been without one of those as well. so weve got 4 and 2 more outside. my inlaws just dont like dogs and they dont beleive in having inside cats either. they have problems according to me. i love animals though. and hubby is a firm beleive that one should not get a pet to keep outside all the time, if thats all your gonna do with it then you shouldnt have it. and if i had a choice my 2 outside cats would be in as well but my house just doesnt have the room. and i cant not feed them. |

| I here it from people also. I have 3 yorkies, a yorkie-poo, a pekapoo. Well, the yorkiepoo and the peekapoo are mixed, but I paid a good price for them and love them dearly. Not as much as the cost for my yorkies. They love me too. I wouldn't trade them for anything. People are getting good money these days for mixed breeds. My husband teases me about my mutts. I don't care what anyone thinks and I admire anyone who adopts pets that need a good home. I have had mutts, ferrell cats myself. Jan Jan |

| I agree with Gina. And as long as you are able to take care of them, and they are loved that's all that matters. Why do people say things at the most inappropriate times.
