Unlove Ignorant Yorkie Owners?

I just came from the Vet. earlier this afternoon, I had taken both Artie & Abigail and the 3 Puppies got their tails docked & dewclaws removed.
As I was checking out my b/f went ahead to put the Puppies in the Car.
I had both Artie & Abigail on a Leash and a Woman behind me w/2 other Yorkie's (1 in a bag) and her other on her Leash. Both of hers had undocked long tails and their ears were floppy. Some one else asked her "What kind of Dogs were they? She replied "Oh they are Tara Daniels Yorkshire Terriers"?
As if they were a certain Designer Brand Yorkshire Terrier? And she proceeded to comment that "They are a different kind of Yorkie" and "I don't know what kind of Yorkie's she's got"? And then she leaned foreward and asked me......"What kind of Yorkie's are those"? I replied in an odd confused tone of voice "I have Yorkshire Terriers that's the only kind of Yorkie's I know of"? I thought to myself just b/c both of mine are Gold/Silver and not Black/Tan doesn't mean that they are NOT Yorkie's and how ignorant of you being a fellow Yorkie Owner, not to know that?
But I had already dealt w/the ordeal of being there for an hour and a half,
enduring the chaos of total strangers and their unsocialized babies!
I was in no mood to get into an "Intellectual Lecture" with an Ignorant (w/c is a kind word for her) Total Stranger? I fumbled around and thought about it for a minute.......and I decided to get the heck out of there so I could rush home to relax and report/vent to YT.
After all I am a YT. Fanatic! Aloha*
