I don't understand how people can make comments like that. You're right, it's not often that random strangers go up to a mom or dad and tell them that their child or baby looks like an alien lol. Some things should just be kept to yourself. Quote:

Alex you are so right! Some people's ignorance amazes me. In this world we are all different and so are our furbabies... I also hate the mini questions or the teacup questions...I feel like i have to go back and correct all of these misconceptions. I begin to wonder why they, who know nothing, are questioning me who has done her research. Healthy curiosity is one thing but ignorance and judgement are another! |
I can't believe someone would actually say "she's so cute, but not $700 cute!" :mad: It's sad how people can casually spend more than that on a flat screen TV or a cell phone, but when it comes to a pet, an actual life, people think that price range is ridiculous. I'm Vietnamese, and I wouldn't dare tell other Vietnamese people how much my Mocha really cost. I've told some people that I only paid half of what I really did, and they were already in shock...I think if I told them his real price, they would have a heart attack! For some reason, a lot of Vietnamese people don't believe in spending more than $100 on a dog. Quote:

I had a lady call my little Sass a wimp and a man call her a rat. :mad: They both had large dogs and seemed to think they were just so funny. I actually had a trick-or-treater ask us how much we paid for her. |
I get asked this all the time, and I just say "not as much as he's worth to me", and they usually drop it. |

A lot of ppl ask me that. Sometimes i tell them sometimes i just won't, ill just say a lot but it doesn't matter cause i love them so much!:D |
I have had a few people ask before. It is rude. And when I was selling my puppy that she had, it made me feel weird to tell them how much I was asking just because of that. I think people know they are good dogs and they know they are expensive so I don't know why they even have to ask. I do daycare and one of my moms was interested in the puppy and she was trying to talk her husband into letting her buy him. He had just bought a German Shepherd puppy so he would have trampled my little guy anyway. But she wanted him so bad. So anyway, he said he only paid $200 on the internet for his dog. Then after a few weeks when I told him I sold the puppy, I was just telling him. I wasn't saying it to be weird or anything. His comment was, "Well, if that's the kind of dog you are looking for." I thought that remark was rude and uncalled for. He could have just said, "Well, that is good." You know? lol |
Well, I guess this might not apply to me since I have a Morkie(obviously less-expensive)...but thats a whole new set of drama. Anyways! People most often ask me how much he was because he's so cute. I usually just give them the breeders website and tell them the prices are listed there. Then I don't have to look them in the face when they find out. lol. I love my baby boy and would have paid much more for him if I needed too. :) |
LOL that's probably what I would do if my breeder had a website. Would you mind sharing that website? I have a friend who's thinking about getting a Morkie and your little guy is just tooo cute!! Quote:

i say he was a gift, because well, he was! :) my BIL calls him a rat. I call my BIL an A$$. :) were even now. :) |
I get asked how much Duffy costs ALL the time. I just say ALOT. If they persist in knowing the amount, I tell them $2,500.00 and he is worth every penny of it to me. Usually they then ask if I am going to breed him and I tell them no, he is already fixed. I didn't buy him for that. I had someone this morning tell me he looks like a rat and I gave her a look that she understood because she said "I only meant his size is like a rat, nothing bad". I really wanted to smack her but I restrained myself. Some people have no clue as to when to keep their opinions to themselves. |
I just smlie and say, Oh she was FREE:p and I got the last one;) |

yes, they always ask me. |
I just say they were a gift... And as a matter of fact, they REALLY were given as a gift to me... My Dad gave me Maggie, and Hubby gave me Hannah...:D :thumbup: |

A good answer without telling them to the dime how much you paid for your particular dog would be...good ones are usually over 1,000.00, but check the person out if they are selling at that price or higher. |
