Sick of comments about small dogs! Ever since I brought home Cosmo and esp. when he started going places with me I hear tons and tons of comments about "small dogs." It is so bothersome! My last dog was a Rottie and everyone had something to say about him too! Like he vicious, mean and will turn temperment on a dime. ALL of which was not true becuase I searched for a good breeder and took him to tons of dog classes. He was a big loveable bear until the day he died. NOW I have my darling Cosmo and everyone calls "small dogs" yippers, and someone actually said "Oh a Yorkie, those dogs are so greasy and mandy looking!" ARE YOU SERIOUS!!!??? I spend tons on a groomer, he is adorable, loving, and actually he is not a barker at all! I feel like telling them two things #1 You are just jealous. #2 don't call him a yipper becuase there are breeds that are. Anyway, I love my Yorkie and I am just hoping there are other owners out there that are just as fed up as me with the negative comments! YORKIE OWNERS UNITE! JK |
I agree!!!! Ppl think of little dogs as ankle biters... My one Chihuahua is, but the other one is a sweetheart, and my Yorkie, Roxy is in NO WAY an ankle biter... Ppl always say... doesnt that high pitched yapping get annoying??? And I say, "it would... IF SHE DID IT!" Yorkie doesnt "yip", and for that matter she doesnt "yap" She is better behaved than almost every little kid I see in the stores... Which could lead me on a whole DIFFERENT rant!!! In fact I think I might open a thread about that!!! lol |
i would get tired of people looking at my big dogs like they would eat them some people are just so judgemental thats why pets are so great! |

AMEN TO THAT TOO!!! That IS a whole different thread! However, I work at a high school and the last few Saturdays I have worked and brought him with me, I hardly see him during the week so on a Sat. nobody is here is except a few. I have my own office, I close my door and work. WELL, someone made a comment to me today that is unprofessional that I bring him with me on saturdays. I said I am here working for FREE on my own time, in my own office! Tough! I mean he is potty trained and sleeps under my desk, why the HECK do they care! |

Fight 4 Our FurBabies Rants... 1 Attachment(s) I'm gonna go make this thread right now!!! |
I get know it all people all the time. I have 2 rottweilers a lab and a yorkie. We also just lost our chi. People tell me that my Rotts are mean and will turn on me any min. They say my lab is a big baby. Well if they only knew. My lab loves to bite, the rotts might lick you to death if they even get up. They are so lazy. Then there was our chi that they called a yapper, I think in the 3 years we had her she barked once. I think no matter what kind of dog you have someone is going to have something negative to say about it. My BIL just found out my lab sleeps with me. He about had a fit. He said there was no way a dog was going to sleep in his bed. My hubby told him that Levi gets a bath every week and thats more than our nephew ( not his son) does. We do have a nephew that only takes a bath once a month rather he needs it or not. Hole nother story. Sorry so long!!!! |
Its sad really that ppl get misconceptions of a breed because of what ppl do to them... I lived with a Pitbull that was my exboyfriends, her name was Molly... and ppl always said... "A PIT??? THOSE ANIMALS ARE TERRIBLY AGGRESSIVE!!!"... The fact was Molly was the sweetest little thing in the world... if you even raised your voice for any reason, she would put her tail between her legs and come to you for forgiveness, EVEN if it HAD nothing to do with her!!! She was just the sweetest girl, she would cry when we left, she would wait by the door until we came home, and she would lay between us like she was just a little tiny dog, even tho she wasnt... She was the sweetest little Pit in the world... So laid back, so caring, and so gentle... She wouldnt hurt anything... *cries cause she misses Molly* |

One more point, becuase my puppy is ALWAYS happy to see me it makes me a more relaxed and happy person. There are days I am stressed, tired and at my wits end. When I get home and he jumps in my lap the world fades aways as I pet him, he thinks ear rubs are HEAVEN! I figure I am saving some counselor loads of time and the world is making a little less wine these days!:p |
One time actually I got very angry at a woman at Petco. I was getting Roxy's nails cut, and my Chihuahua, Chico's nails cut. I had to hold Roxy the whole time because Chico is the sweetest thing... BUT!!! he is 13 years old, stuck in his ways and DOES NOT like Roxy. He is VERY jealous (one of the reasons I am going to get Chompers for Roxy)... When I put Roxy on a chair in the kitchen because I can't leave her down with him, he flips out on her... and I have to pull the chair, she gets excited and thinks he wants to play, but this is NOT the case.... Poor Roxy... So, anyways, I was holding Roxy, and the woman at Petco said... "oh so she beats up on him..." And I said... "no no... actually the other way around, he picks on her!!!" and she goes... "oh.... well, that doesnt seem right to me, usually Yorkies are instigators... its hard for me to believe that poor little old thing would pick on that Yorkie..." .... SERIOUSLY??!??!?? SERIOUSLY LADY??? please... shut up and cut my dogs nails... I can cut my dogs nails myself anyways. |

I WISH YOU LIVED NEAR ME!!! I think we may have been separated at birth! I would have wanted to say the same thing! One of my students is reading this (High School) and she said Ms. Avila that is something you would type! I hate people that ASSume! Just keep your side note comments to yourself! And you are ALL right what the HECK is with WalMart! They have filthy stores and most of the customers look filthy nasty too! They should be happy that I am in their store with my beautiful dog buying their merchandise. Which is cheap but some stuff falls apart in days! Heck Cosmo is cleaner than most of their checkers! |

Missah... you can't have... a thatahh.. dog in heeah!.... And I was like... well if my dog can't be in here, you certainly shouldnt be... GRRRRRRRR! Come on Roxy, we'll take our business elsewhere... |
