Kind of a little mad So a little bit ago my cousin unexpectedly came over because she needed Brandon(my roommate) to look at her phone. Well my two sisters were over also and she was trying to show them something and she was kind of bent over and so Silver started jumping on her legs trying to get her attention and out of nowhere she pushes Silver off and goes "Stop and get off of me." Well first of all we've been learning at pet class if you don't want her jumping on you ignore her and she will walk away. But the thing is everyone who has ever walked in since I've had Silver has no problem with this seeing as they all love her and pick her up and play with her as soon as they step foot in the door. I just thought it was a little rude that she would come in my house uninvited and be hateful with my puppy, especially seeing as all she wanted was to play and get a little attention(by the way my two sisters already had her excited and playful so she was in the mood and she had never met my cousin so she wanted to check her out). I have never been mean to her dog when she has brought it to our grandparents home even though it jumps on everyone (It's a bigger dog, way bigger) and begs for food. So I ended up biting my tongue hoping she would hurry and leave and my little sister ended up holding Silver until she left. Sorry I'm ranting and rambling just a little mad because I thought it was rude for someone to come into my home where my dog lives and expect whatever she expected of Silver who is only 20wks old. What would you all say/do if someone had done something like this?:confused: |
I would be mad too. It would be hard for me to bite my tongue though. LOL |
I would have picked up Silver and told her that Silver was only trying to be friendly and say hello. Maybe she would have felt embarassed by her remark. |
I would have asked her to leave. I have done it before and will not hesitate to do it again. |
Yes, I know I would have been mad and I know I do not hold my tongue. Next time she comes over maybe you could say something like, "Let me put her up so you don't hurt her feelings like you did the last time." |
Well good thing is she only comes to my house once in a blue moon(Usually when she needs something). Her and I have never been close. She's not the type of person I like to associate with. But next time my little sister might not be here and I won't be so quick to bite my tongue. |
My "sister in law" came over unexpected one day and told me my Elsa was ugly. I immediately went off like a 12 year old girl saying something stupid like "your Momma" Boy the things our babies will make us do. LOL |
LOL !! I probably would have said something like "Come to mommy Silver. Pay no attention to that mean lady". I have said these exact words to my daughter when she has said something about my babies. |
Next time say: "Sorry. She's only 20 weeks old so she's not a good judge of character yet." |

wow she was really rude. I don't like my dogs jumping on people, but that does not give her the right to mistreat you puppy!!! |
I've dealt with this, unfortunately. :rolleyes: My step-sister seems to have a vendetta against Jackson, or maybe it's me, who knows. She will kiss and love on my dads two dogs and the minute Jackson would come over, she'd be all "ew, get away from me!" It hurt my feelings... because Jackson is like my child, and he doesn't get excited to see very many people (he's shy, so he has a select few that he's SUPER excited to see!) One day, I had had enough.... we were out by the pool and he jumped up on her lap and she pushed him off of her, and I started screaming at her, LOL. She started screaming back, we got in a huge fight... well now, the two get along just fine for the most part. She's come to accept how 'passionate' I'm gonna be about my dog, and that Jackson loves her to pieces, so now they are friends, though we rarely see my step-sister anyways. |

I'd have made her leave, if it happens again tell her to have Brandon go to her |
My friend is like that with my dogs. When she comes over to my home she pushes them away and that really pisses me off because we never do that to her dogs. We even lock up our basset hounds when people come over because they can be over powering, but the little guys are so friendly they love everybody and I hate to see the look in their eyes when she pushes them away She has a big St Bernard that comes over to you and and drools all over you and a little Shih tzu. I told my friend that next time we go to her home we are going to push her dogs away and see how see likes it, but then I can't do it because it's not the dog's fault that her owner acts stupid sometimes and two wrongs don't make a right. Most of the time she is a real good friend and she's helped us out alot so I bite my tongue. |
Oh this makes me mad....I would have picked up my dog and then in an angry voice told her to ''GET OUTTA MY HOUSE'' How dare she, out hands on your pup....grrrrrrr!!!!:angry::angry::angry::angry::angry: |

I would have probably gone off on her a little defending my dog. Once a long time ago a guy I hardly knew stopped by my place with some friends of mine. I had a little cat, minding her own business, named Sadie back then. This guy picked her up, held her at arms length and said I HATE cats. I told him that Sadie lives here, you don't. This is HER house and I think you had better leave. He said, you would kick me out for a cat? I said yes, everyday and twice on Sunday!! |

My sister's dog jumps on me all the time. He's this big, beautiful, and bad boy Australian Shepherd, and I really dislike it when he jumps on me. No doubt about it, Lennie is being friendly, but he's way out of line with that behavior. So I talked about it with her, and she actually said that she didn't think it bothered me because he was just playing, etc, etc, etc. and she figured it was okay because I hadn't said anything. I'm really blessed because I can tell her, "Well no, it should not be my job to have to feel uncomfortable to make your dog behave. So she now keeps him from jumping on me and others too because she has perspective on it now. So, I think that even though my Yorkie is only 3.75 lbs. it is not okay for him to jump on anyone. When I answer the door, I pick him up. It's not okay with me if he jumps on anyone other than me and DH. And if he does jumps on anyone, he is told, "NO" sharply. I guess what I'm trying to say is that it's not adorable when someone else's dog jumps on me, and I assume that it's not adorable to that person when my dog jumps on her. |
This is why I can't stand most people! I would never dream of doing something like that to someone's pet while I am in their home! We have a 70 lb. Basset Hound who thinks he is a 5 lb. lap dog. Guess what? If you don't want him sitting in your lap when you come over....DON'T COME OVER! People amaze me sometimes. |
I've pretty much figured out by now that there are two kinds of people who come into my house. Those who are "dog people" and those who aren't. Even if they own dogs, they aren't necessarily "dog people." "Dog people" don't treat your animals like that. They often greet your dog even if they are in a hurry or have some other reason to be there. When the "other kind" of people show up....well, it is better to pen the dog and just realize they don't have an interest in your pet. Their loss. I've experienced the same kind of thing from few people. It makes me mad also. I'm sorry you had to go through it too. I mean how can you resist the cute face and mannerisms of a spunky yorkie???!!! |
We had a simallar experience ... when Suzi was still a puppy my nephew pushed her off the couch. I did not seee it, but my son did. It pissed off my son , and it forced my brother to talk to his mean boy... He tried to make a excuse for him, saying, that my nephew is not use to small animals, which was BS . Thye have Chi's. to this day the same nephew STILL is very rough with dogs. They have a tiny puppy , and recently I saw him pick the pup up by the scruff of his neck and toss him onto the couch. It made me gasp. This time my brother was more firm . my nephew is 14. Old enough to know better. I do not let him come over to my place anymore. I think the kid has some type of mental problem. When it is your home, and visitors are over, they need to abide by your rules. That girl , would of been asked to leave she ever pushed down one of my dogs. |
Well, who knows maybe when I've had Dinky longer, I will see people who don't want my dog to jump on them differently. Now, I just see them as people who don't like others people's dog jumping on them, and I think that's reasonable. I don't take it personally. I really, really don't get it. I just asked DH, if it's okay for Dink to jump on people, and he too is quite sure that this is not okay. I mean we're happy to hold Dinky, Dinky's happy to be held, and the friend or loved one is happy because my dog's not jumping on them. And you know, the ones who aren't crazy about dogs, always come around. I just like to give them some time and space to do so. |
My kids sometimes get harsh with Bella, I just remind them she lives her they don't anymore. :D |

Oh hay-ell no. That chick would have gotten a piece of my mind. THEN I would have kicked her out. |
now while i wouldn't allow a 50lb lab to jump on the guests, a yorkie hardly bothers someone by jumping up with it's itty bitty legs at someone. i think i would have said something along the lines of "this is HER house, if it bothers you that she's here you can feel free to leave it" |

Yeah, there's a time for holding your tongue...this is not it. Bullies like her need to be put in her place ASAP. |
