| Your best line to keep peoples hands off your dog! Okay everyone, give me your best line to use in the moment as the hand is approaching your pooch.... I've used "my dog has a parasite humans can get" a lot, I need something new!

| Try "he/she has lice" or "can't control her bladder when touched" |

| I just tell em Laynee has DEADLY GAS and she does. I'm telling you she can stop a whole room dead in its tracks with her bottom. Lol. And it's like as soon as you touch her bottom. I think it's funny but i know its from her food. I gave her a bath today and as i scrubbed her bottom she farted on me!!!

| The only people I ever had any trouble with wanting to mess with Galahad were the twin boys who lived down the building from us in the apartment. Every single time they'd see him, regardless of what he was doing (usually sniffing around for the perfect place to drop a stinkle), they'd both come running at him, screaming his name and slapping their thighs. Mind you, these kids are eleven, and they have a min-pin, there was no reason for them to be so crazy about seeing my little guy. I would do one of two things when I saw them coming: A. Gently twitch his leash back toward me, and pick him up before they could get to him and start grabbing him. Then I'd tell them that they could pet him if they'd lower their voices and not grab him. B. Twitch his leash toward the apartment and haul butt like mad to get inside before they could get to us! We've moved out of the apartments though, thankfully, and none of my new neighbors so far have tried to grab or touch Galahad. The lady next door commented that he was gorgeous, and the delivery guy for my stove whistled and called him a "helluva high priced dog", lol.

| I usually just say "don't touch my dog." Seriously though I hate when people just try to hold or touch her without even asking, I understand it , but hate it none the less. I usually try to say something like..."she is little and scares easy so please don't" , but if I'm in a bit of a b*tchy mood I just say "Dont touch her"...yeah ,they love me then You could always try ..... don't let her lick your hand she eats her own poo

If someone asks me, I usually say ok. But it's when people don't ask, esp little kids like 5 and under who don't know how to properly pick up a dog. There was one the other day. A young mom came in with a boy maybe 4 and a girl maybe 2. The boy picked up Uni by her front paws! Uni likes to stand on her back legs and say hi to people and this kid picked her up like that! The mom was totally not paying attention, so I tried real hard and kindly said "oh honey please don't pick her up like that, she doesn't like to be picked up" He put her down and Uni immediately went and hid in her bed.
