no ones ever said anything bad to me.. most of them just ask where I get my clothes from and say "awaaa" & how cute pebbles looks. if someone said something nasty.. and directly said it TO ME.. i would say something nasty back, honestly, because its none of their business and who are they to just go around randomly saying bad things to people!! and if someone said something loudly to their friend or whatever so i could hear it i would just give them an evil look and keep on walking, because me and my dog are way more fierce than they are anyway
