My skin actually is fairly thick.. I worked for years as the only female in a male only field.. so been there and bought the t-shirt. lol
My only hope is when they DO start talking about me or my dog.. they are not using four letter words... like m-u-t-t.... lol
btw.. Sonny is doing well stacking for me WITHOUT the happy legs now. Now that he has had all of his shots, I will start going to Lancaster to the handling classes with him. Learning how to teach him to walk on the lead is going to be a challenge to me as I have no clue how to approach it so he doesn't get scared and refuse to walk on it.
