What annoys me most Since i have gotten Ranger it seems I have encountered some of the dumbest people. When we put him in the yard neighbors are always asking things like "is that a rabbit?" and my personal favorite "is that a gopher your playing with?" Trust me these people are absolutely serious. The other day my boyfriend took Ranger out to go to the bathroom and a girl was like, "is that a yorkie?" He said "yeah" Then she replied "oh i always wanted a Yorkshire Terrier not a Yorkie." He said, "That is what he is" Then she said "No, you said he was a Yorkie." My boyfriend decided that was the end of that conversation. I am just so sick of dumb people. ugghh |

We cannot let those dumb comments get us down. Some of these people's comments seem so silly that it makes me laugh. I would thank them for giving me a good laugh for that day. Now if the person were asking me a genuine question, then I would take the time to answer their question. |
I still love this one. While walking Kaia out in a parking garage, a middle aged couple stop to pet her and the female asked if she was a teacup. I go on to explain that there's no such thing as "teacup" as all Yorkie's are a toy breed and that she's just a small girl. The man then proceeds to ask, "So it's a Yorkie-Poo teacup?" I just smiled and walked away, but those types of questions always annoy me! I certainly am not one to speak as I've had MANY "blonde" moments, but when it comes to questions about my pups from random people, I get rather annoyed by the stupidity. :( |
I can handle remarks by strangers , and just brush it off. However, it is family members that always get to me the most :( The comments, She is soooo Hyper, she's the most hyperactive dog Iv'e ever seen! She needs doggie ritalin, and the ewww factor if she tries to lick u on the face> I love the kissess, my son does too, but not everybody apreciates them. my brother really like Suzi now. But he use to be the one to making the stupid comments. Not anymore. He was having a bad day, came over my place, and Suzi made him feel so much better ! ;) |
Get this: I passed one of the military vet techs who was leaving the vet's office as Meg and I were walking in. We passed them and when she thought I was out of earshot, I heard her say to her friend, "What WAS that?!" in a disgusted sort of voice. She's a DOG, you lunatic! Oh, by the way, you've met her before, and you're never going to touch her again! No, I didn't say this out loud. I was too in shock, but now I'm wishing that I had told her off. What a total b**ch. Thank God I have never had to have an appointment with her. If she thinks a dog (a Yorkie, no less!!!!) is disgusting, I can only imagine how she treats the animals she "cares" for. :mad: (Ohhhh, she made me SO angry!!) |

All we can do is take uneducated comments and try to see the positive side or turn them into something humorous. We cannot let anyone's thoughtless comments upset us -- we are the lucky ones to own a Yorkie! |

I'd take it as a compliment-- some foxes are really cute. Just imagine this one with a bow in her hair. ;) File:Fennec Fox (Vulpes zerda) -sleeping -Wilhelma Zoo-8.jpg - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |

i always love these threads. people's stupidity really make me laugh sometimes! i just always get "Shes SO BIG!" but i know i'm not the only one so i just smile and say yep she's my teapot and walk away leaving them even more confused HAHA! |
Yeah, I also hate that the minute you tell someone that you have a Yorkie, their immediate response is "Oh one of those Yippe ankle biters?" It makes me so angry because everyone that has met Ranger just thinks he is the cutest little thing. Even the people who make these comments! |

What about the people who don't know how to handle a Yorkie and treat them like it's a Golden Retreiver or powerful dog!! I mean, I know these pups are not weak but they are more fragile!! Went to my parents the other day and they had guests over for dinner. The man took Snickers and pushed his cheeks in so hard to see his teeth, my husband and I eyes bugged out and I had to ask him to stop politely. He told me "he knew dogs!" UGH!! I told him to be gentle. Then he sat down on the floor and started waving his feet back and forth for Snickers to chase and just as I went to scoop him up, wack, he kicked Snick in the face. Snick brushed it off but I was PISSED!! My husband has mentioned everyday since then how he keeps thinking about how rough he was with Snickers. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!! |
Oh i know!! The nighbor man wanted to see Ranger and he had his son next to him. He handed Ranger over to his son and my heart sank. The kid was fumbling trying to figure out how to hold him (it was clear he had never handled a little dog before) The whole time i was thinking in my head.. Kid i swear if you drop him.... lol. |
