Socialization is great for Yorkies, but just as Poppy needs to be able to trust the dogs she meets, you need to trust the people you meet.
You might consider slowly building up a network of dog owners who are fun to be around for both you and Poppy, then set up your own, smaller meetups.
As for how to respond to rudeness, the best thing you can do is ignore them. Engaging them is like wrestling with pigs. Everybody gets dirty, and the pigs like it! |
I'm going to remember this one!
OP, don't worry about all the rudeness. The one hat really bothered me was the lady with he girl yorkie. On my experience, most people can't tell if a pup is a boy or a girl just by looking. Kaji has been mistaken for a girl too many tomes to count! When hey ask what my little girl's name is, I simply smile and answer, "His name is Kaji and he loves the ladies!"
