O.M.G. This is NOT how I wanted this to turn. All I was posting was about a breed of dog that I didn't think was all too bright. I did post a disclaimer, so as to place the onus of the dogs' (Shih Tzus, in this case) behavior on the owner. And, like I mentioned, one of the STs in question belonged to an ex-BF, of whom I am not fond. All this in-fighting, personal attacks, and so on, and so forth, were beyond my comprehension. I hear people all_the_time say they don't like "yappy little dogs" WHILE they are petting my precious (and, none yappy!) Pippi. I don't take offense, rather just laugh it off. People have such varying degrees of likes and dislikes that I thought we could all be adults here, and recognize this as such
There is a member here, who felt she needed the last word to insult me (when I had done *nothing* to warrant such a rude personal attack), and I sent her a strongly-worded PM (which she probably won't read, but whatever
).
I mentioned in a post (forget which now) that Miss Behavin was the name of one of my favorite geldings when I was living in Argentina (moved from Europe to Buenos Aires, Argentina, where polo is insanely popular. Wellington, where my parent's currently live, is the winter polo capitol of the world - polo ponies are shipped from dozens of countries to be there now), and that is why I chose this as my screen name. NOT b/c I intended on causing trouble. I thought my posts were benign, until things became construed in the manner other than what I meant.
And, if someone is going to pick an argument w/me, I am like a Yorkie, I will NOT EVER back down
So, can we PLEASE just leave this at that?
