But everyone always gives Hootie all the attention and everyone completely ignores Hobbs....they say Hootie is smaller and thus, cuter.  I have always noticed how people act differently towards each of them, but it became very apparent and actually made me mad last night when we had some friends over to watch Grey's Anatomy. We had 6 friends over and they kept passing around Hootie and oo'ing and awe'ing over her and they were actually being MEAN to Hobbs saying he was being annoying.  Hobbs was NOT being annoying. He is VERY VERY well behaved. He just has a big personality, whereas Hootie is strictly a lap dog. But no one wanted to hold Hobbs and everyone was doating on Hootie, and Hobbs was just getting his feelings hurt and thus, my feelings were hurt.
I know good and well there is nothing that I can do to change the way people view my yorkies. But it just irks me...what is this world coming to? My 3.6lbs yorkie is no longer cute because now I have a yorkie that is even smaller than he?! It just really makes me mad. |
shoot I just saw this.. it's ok Becca ...people will be people... I know how you feel.. when Maddy was alive it would happen to and now that she has passed sometimes I cry thinking maybe I didnt give her enough attention and time and sometimes gave Gizmo more or vs versa... but well I feel they know we love them and thats all that matters.. I hope you feel better and dont worry. .you are a good mommy and thats all that matters...
