| Alright you guys I'm going to take everyone's advice. I still can't believe that people reach out and grab peoples dogs... seriously come on people! I do have to see it as they're being rude and if they don't take a few hints then I'll have be rude right back. I wish people knew their limits. I don't mind a pet or two but don't smother my dog! Whenever someone asks to hold her I don't let them. She's a lil squirmer and only lets a few people hold her. I hope I never have to encounter something like this again. And I hope people soon realize they need to ask before touching.

| Just tell them that she has a skin condition or tell them she bites. People wouldn't dare come near me when I have my babies out. I don't take them out that much anymore. They don't need someones grubby hands or worse yet lips on them. They sleep with me!! Back off.

| I brought Pao to a hardware store where dogs are allowed on leash and put him in the cart on the baby seat with a pillow that I brought and some lady came to kiss him as well. I really do not like strangers kissing my dog, I just don't feel it is very hygienic ya know. And they never asked if the dog is friendly or not sigh....Pao is not really cuddly nor comfortable with strangers either. I need a stroller!!!

Donating YT 500 Club Member | that is so odd that a stranger would kiss someone else's dog?? Talk about weird!!! This has not happened to me yet- although to tell you the truth i dont even like strangers coming up to PET Bella!! She doesnt like it either.. i dont know if its a yorkie trait, but she isnt always happy to see strangers... She likes to nip at little kids sometimes also,thats why i always dread when little kids run up ..i think it scares her.. Oh well some people are just dumb! LOL

| Gah I was disgusted when she kissed Mahina. I had JUST taken her a bath the day before too! I so badly wanted to give her another, but she's sensitive, so I wiped her off with a wet towel.

People not asking before they can pet is how they get bit.

My BF's dog is really scared of little kids. One time a little girl ran into the dog park and came up to pet her and thankfully we caught her in time. She was growling and was about to snap, we picked her up and told the little girl she doesn't like kids. We never go in if we see small children, but this lil girl came out of no where. It can be a little scary sometimes, because even though other people may be petting without permission, it's still your dog and it will be your fault. Most of the time at dog parks kids will ask before touching, which I'm grateful for.

| I am so sorry this happen to you and it can be very scary. I remember last summer visiting my cousin and we walked to the park which was close by. This woman slams on her brakes and jumps out of her car drunk.I was so scared I couldn't move.She says where can I get one of them things. I attempted to tell her she would have to search for a good breeder and I told her the prices of some,and she wanted to buy mine.I just gave her a wrong number and told her to call me, just so she would leave.She never got a chance to pet our dogs because he kept running from her when she came near.(they were leashed).
