Ohhhh-that just "frosts my bippies"!!! I think you handled that QUITE well.
I about went OFF on someone this weekend for calling my 6 lb little Emma "big"-this lady and her pudgy daughter were each holding what they claimed to be yorkies, and gawking at Emma! The dogs were the size of guinea pigs-no exaggerating on this one, they had were NO larger than 1.5 lbs (they made 3 lb Milli look like a GIANT). And, they had horrific looking scraggly hair that needed to be brushed and trimmed, and these awful, gappy, pointy teeth.
I told them that Emma was standard sized, and Milli was on the smaller side, but they didn't believe it, and started ARGUING with me about the size of a standard yorkie, and boasted theirs were "teacups". I briefly went into the fact that there is no such thing as a teacup-but was shot down, and didn't feel like arguing. What I wanted to say was, "at least my dogs are CARED for, and are properly FED and GROOMED!"
Ugh, the nerve! |
