My opinion is that, bc the person posting the picture said "everyone knows who this is in this picture" - makes the posting of the picture entirely inappropriate and downright mean  .
If an analogy is needed....this (to me) would be like if I'd attended a YT meetup last weekend, and snapped a similar picture...and posted it here - knowing full well (as well as stating the fact) that "everyone knows whose picture this is!".
If anyone disagrees w/ my opinion of this, that's your prerogative....but in my opinion - this was mean. Intentionally mean, as far as I can tell.
I don't understand that kind of intention at all.  |
Ann, I totally agree with you. I was at the shows and I remember the woman in that jacket, but that's all I remember about her.
I just wanted to add that there is a huge stress level at these shows for the handlers and owners who work so hard all year long and from a woman-to-woman perspective I would have completely ignored it and thought nothing of it even if I had seen it.
I'm sure most of us were concentrating on the beautiful dogs, nothing more.
