I, too, always ask if I may pet someone's 'baby.' I do encourage others to approach Piper as I want her to be social and polite. I take Piper pretty much everywhere and as a rule, people have been respectful toward her and me. Awhile back, however, several people were cupping (or attempting) to cup Piper's adorable little noggin in their two hands which neither she nor I appreciated! Now I make sure to intercede to ensure my Piper-girl receives only gentle strokes from folks (I'm so dang poetic!). |
