I probably wouldn't ignore it if it continues, if it was an isolated comment then you could ignore it but since she continues to bring it up you need to put her in her place. You know how if you ignore a bully they get worse and worse, well she is a bully or she wouldn't keep insulting you. I think the next time she says that you should punch her in the nose...lol...just joking. Tell her to mind her own business that at least your dog doesn't piss his pants. BTW I use potty pads too and my house never stinks and I always pick up the poop when she does it (or she will pick it up for me and bury it under her blankets). I have also had nasty rude comments toward potty pads from family and even here on YT. Some one even commented that if someone is so lazy that they use potty pads then they don't need a dog. For me it doesn't have anything to do with laziness. I use them for many reasons. I am not going to take her out in temps in the teens and 20's-she is only 2.8 lbs. And when it is wet outside and my yard is muddy then I don't want her to get muddy and bring that into my house. When it is warm and dry outside I will let her go out to potty. But all I have to do is open the patio door and let her out into the fenced yard...if I lived in an apartment I would use potty pads all the time like you do...it only makes sense for you to use them. Some people are not happy unless they are putting someone else down. |
