We are human and sometimes our moods just take over. Maybe if we all step back and try to see the other's person's position it would be smoother. You are also right about taking it personally. If we don't take it to heart, then it wouldn't hurt - but that's easier said than done for some of us. |
That was exactly why it was probably said they way it was. The point though was I didnt know anything about socialization puppies go through or how to select a good breeder but I did after her posts and so did anyone else who read the thread.
