If I ever said a "small" dog, I was NOT referring to a teacup, I was referring to general size considering I have only owned an American Pit, numerous Boxers, and fostered a Bullmastiff. All over fifty pounds. So, really...stop trying to make what I've said into something it never was. I have three small children, and zero interest in a three pound dog for them to accidentally crush. It's a chore enough making sure they are aware of Sheldon who is, and always has been, tracking at five pounds.

Once again, I was NEVER nasty or rude, and I have even been quite adamant about saying that anything I said wasn't taken wrong. You, however, seem to be getting quite revved up about my tiny, singular opinion.

I know you did say that you hoped anything was taken wrong but it was a little too late. I just didnt understand why you were taking this position with this person. I just ask everyone who is excusing the way this thread went and how the OP had to just give up how you would feel if you were new and it seemed everyone on the forum were coming after you over things that when it really comes down to it are unimportant and really this persons busiiness. Bobbi when yoou were new I reamed you and I regret it and Im sorry. I could have driven you to the point of not returning to the forum and would that be fair or right. I learned from that thread though and what I learned was I may believe that what I have to say is very important and needs to be said but there is a way of saying it that the other person will accept it and not resent or argue with you when yooou say it. All of this could have been handled differently to get this person to an understanding not making them feel ganged u[ on, badgered or feel they have to give up
