I recently got in an argument with a friend of mine regarding people that make comments likening/calling Lola a "rat". This really, really makes me angry. I think it's rude and completely inappropriate... even though clearly she looks nothing like a rat and I know they only say it because of how tiny she is, I really feel that its just completely ignorant to liken someone's pet to a rodent. She didn't agree and told me that there's no reason to get upset, and that people are just making a joke. I would NEVER say this about someone's pet and I don't think anyone should say it about mine!

Am I overreacting? Do people say this to anyone else with tiny dogs? So rude!
