| People Can Be So Rude!!!!! I was just outside holding Autumn and a older woman was out walking, she stopped to see the dog and asked what her name was. I told her Autumn and she wanted to know how I came up w/that. So I explained that she was going to be named Starr but when we saw that she was born on the first day of fall we decided to name her Autumn Star. The lady had the nerve to tell me that her name was "STUPID" and that I should of went w/my first choice. She wanted to know if my next puppy was going to be "Summer or Winter". My hubby said as he continued gardening "Im sure at your age you have heard the saying if you have nothing nice to say then maybe you should not say anything!!!!" Can you believe the balls of some people!!! |

| Wow, she wasn't nice at all was she? I have never run into any rudeness ever concerning my dogs. I'm just galled that someone could say something like that..especially since she didn't even know you.

| I know how you feel.. Yes rude indeed. I know how you felt. We just got our baby Yorkie girl Friday night and took her with us to my son's b.b. game. A woman there saw her and said "What is that? It looks like a rat." She said it with such disgust. I told her she is a Yorkie. She said "Well it looks like a rat and I have a big dog that would eat it as a snack." I answered her with "Well I don't need a big killer dog, I have a gun." LOL. I was pissed over the comment but I'm not going to aggrevate myself over it. Hubby said that I should have told her how much this rat cost. LOL. Elaine. |

| You go jrsygal37!!!! I am usually very quick to snap back at people but I was just so taken back. This lady was little and old and looked so sweet. I guess Jaws looked sweet to someone right before he ate them. |

| The nerve of that old bat and I'm so glad your hubby said what he did! She sounds like the type of person that is probably rude to everyone. Some people find joy in trying to ruin someone's day. Shame on her. Autumn Starr is a sweet name for your precious baby and I love how you came up with it!!!

| How very rude of that woman to say that. But your husband's comment was great. I love the name you gave your sweet Yorkie girl. It was well thought out and very cute...

YT 500 Club Member | I can't believe how many people make "rat" comments!!! I makes me so mad....!!! How many rats have they seen that have long hair?? How many rats have they seen with a stubby tail??? It just makes them sound stupid. Oh, by the way, Autumn Star is a very nice name. |
