Actually, I'm lucky I guess, because no one's ever told me that. When Sadie was just a puppy, everyone said she looked like a little stuffed animal, which I didn't mind because I thought so too.
I think somehow people know not to say that to me that she's not a real dog...my head might start spinning around, smoke would come out of my ears & I'd seriously go off on them. I swear I'd be like a Mama Lion protecting her cubs. Don't mess with me when it comes to my baby!!
But I need to prepare a snappy smart@$$ comment just in case.....
