I understand wanting to have your piece and quiet but people just melt over our little babies, can you blame them? When children come up and think they are just going to touch my little Bailey Im usually patient and tell them that they cant pick her up but they can pet her. Bailey loves all the attention, it isnt a bad thing for your baby to meet new people. If people are really bothering you keep her on her leash and keep her right next to you in your lap. If people come up to you then kindly tell them she isnt feeling well today and dosnt want to be disturbed. There are nicer ways to go about it then teaching your dog to bite on command...Just remember its flattery... I must admit, the first time I saw all the yorkies at a dog show getting groomed with their gorgeous flowing coats I kinda lost my manners, I couldnt stop talking to the lady grooming them about my babies and how gorgeous hers were Im lucky she was kind and patient with me and not rude and snappy.....


Not gonna lie -- sometime's it gets old because I get the opposite side... Jackson is a bigger boy at over 12lbs so it's always a "Is he a big Yorkie?" or "Is he a silky?" or "Wow, do they come in different sizes?" etc. But most of the time people just want to know his name and breed etc. There's nothing wrong with that. Don't bring your dog out in public if you don't wanna be asked. People don't know that you've been stopped all day by other people or whatever. I often start small talk when I see another persons dog and will usually guess the breed (I'm a good breed guesser, lol) or ask how old they are etc. I would be really offended if someone was like back off....
