You're calling me ignorant. You might have found a more diplomatic way of stating your opinion. We are talking about the bodacious types who are ready to whip the dog out of your arms to "hold" it. I will continue on with my ignorant ways, creating a wave of panic and fear among people, telling them my dog has ring worm so they don't overwhelm her. Maybe it's you they're afraid of.
