I waited until they were sitting down and we moved over to the table next to theirs and I just commented really loud "can you believe that lady in the red shirt? " And started picking them both apart. They got up and moved! Before we left I stopped by their table and told them that they really should be more careful what they say because they never know what it will do to the person who hears. I then told them that my sister had just recently been in a psychiatric hospital for depression, that she is a self mutilator and had attempted suicide and that their words were not building her up, but tearing her down even further. (all that is true- I didn't make it up). They apologized to me and said they didn't know.

I am a speak your mind kind of person, but never at anyone else's expense and if I even think I hurt your feelings, I will come to you and apologize.

I get crap from "big dog" owners all the time. When I told my "friend" that I had a yorkie she said to me: "oh you mean those things you drag on a leash?" People are just absolutely ridiculous sometimes. I'm from Miami so I completely understand what you mean...I used to think that the people there were absolutely the worst and then I moved away and guess what? People are STILL mean! I completely understand that the comments were hurtful toward you but...you know and we know your dog is beautiful. Some people just have a bad attitude and they will try and bring you down just to make themselves feel better.

I tried to get her to settle down but she would not have any of it, so I had to crawl over the other two seats to get to the aisle where she almost jumped out of my arms toward the rear of the plane (we were in a bulkhead seat). When we got the back of the plan she let me know the issue was something about the restroom and when the flight attendant looked at me I told her I didn't know what it was but that I thought she should check it out -- she opened the restroom door and about 10 inches of water rushed out into the plane and water was pouring from somewhere -- one of the captains came back and went behind the restroom and eventually the water stopped.




From then on the "little hairy rat" was a hero because the captain said if she had not found the problem that quickly he would have had to make an emergency landing and would have messed up everyones trip. She got filet mignon and mashed potatoes from first class for dinner :D Those ears of hers never miss!

The sad part is... it wasn't just one person. It was several through out the days. I didn't really get too mad until the one guy looked at Remy, poked his friend and pointed with an ugly face and said.. that is ridiculous (she had a very cute dress on-- one of the dresses made by Connie)

Remy - bless her heart -- had a great time. She loved the walking a greeted almost all with a wag !!
