| What pi**s me off is when people think you are being rude because you won't let your yorkie come over to see their dog. People are idiots!

| Oh no Bailie, it's not only yorkie moms. We do alot of camping and this summer we were camping by some people that had a breed of dog that looked somewhat pitbullish, but it wasn't. Well right off she walked her dog right up to my daughters dog, which is a mix of yellow lab and great perinease (sp), onto our site. My daughters dog is not really used to other dogs only mine. Nothing happened but the idea of it was a little stupid I thought. She didn't even know our dog even tho she was standing there waging her tail and smiling. That could have been a front on my DD dog part. And if they would have started growling I really don't think the other girl could have controled hers, even tho she had on of those spikey chokers on it. IMO, you just don't take a dog right up to another dog you don't know. There's just those few that just don't think. (Not to be offensive.) |

| My Rily thinks he is a great perinease, so when walking, I'm always afraid he will start something that "we" can't finish.

| took Sadie for a long walk this past Saturday in the nice 70s weather...got called a rat again...i don't mind because i call her that as an endearing term... anyways, i hate it when walking along and another dog comes by and it's out of control...it's one thing if the owners say "hey this pup is in training or i'm sorry" but some people just let their dogs go nuts on you or your dog and don't say a word or do anything to stop it....i at least apologize when Sadie barks or gets too excited around people and let them know that she's only 4 months old and still learning how to behave on walkies....and i turn her around fast and walk the other direction and make her learn not to lunge or bark...she does it once or twice and then she's good for the whole walk, so she's learning and she'll be perfect in no time flat |

| my little yorkie does that. she has no problem walking right up to a doberman and starting something... i find this very amusing that she's so tough stuff and only 2.5 lbs, but i also wouldn't let her bully a dog no matter how much bigger he/she is...i make her walk on and refocus her attention on the walking and not the big dog she wants to bark at. |

| I would have reached out and smacked her in the face and laughed then said... "haha my Alice knew I would do that...." Well Probibly not.... but maybe I would have told her how would she like it if I smacked her in the face.... well maybe im just over protective.... my friends rot. snapped at my Alice... and he was like "oh look Tina didnt bite her.... what a good girl..." and I really kicked him in the head and said... "oh look I didnt kick you in the balls... Im such a good girl too..." <true story... I mean come on if his rot would have bitten her even playing she could be dead... and thats my baby... totally dont think you over reacted... if anything in my oppinion you underacted....

| Well, since you asked for opinions I'll go ahead and add mine. To be completely honest I think you are overreacting a little bit. I'll explain. Yes it was completely rude of her to laugh and I would have been a little ticked off as well but in all reality, her dog was most likely just playing and your dog was probably absolutely fine. Dogs play extremely rough. Even now, even though I've owned dogs for years, I still am tempted to break up Franklin and Maggie playing because it can get really rough. I always forget that they don't have really any other way to play besides jumping at each other and biting each other. Secondly, a 5lb difference isn't really that big of a difference, especially since you said your Yorkie was larger. Franklin and Maggie are 9 and 11 lbs and I let them play with much larger dogs at the dog park without any problems. The owner probably didn't realize you were upset because she thought the dogs were just playing. Since they were probably just playing, she had no idea they would do that. It wasn't as if her dog bit yours and she knew it was aggressive and brought it over. Does that make sense? I agree with some of the other posters... I would never touch another person because their dog accidentally hurt mine.

| Seems rude to me I truly hope that woman wasn't laughing because her dog got too rough and intimidated yours. That's not cool. I certainly wouldn't let her dog near mine again if that's how her dog plays and the owner's nonchalant attitude about it. |
