dog I refuse to let someone take the joy of my day away buy their idiot comment about a subject they know nothing about. This person got their teacup poodle mixed up with their yorkie. You know there is no teacup yorkie. I wil never take my yorkies to the banfield vet. I will go to a reputable vet in town. I just have trouble trusting them. Do not hand your precious yorkie over to some stranger unless it is an emergency. I always get a recommendation before I go to a vet or groomer. I have a groomer come to my home so I do not have that problem. I hope you will not take to heart what that person said. She certainly did not know. |

People at the vet's office (including most vets) have very little knowledge about the breeding of purebreds. The vet's office is a place for the mechanics of the pet's body but knowledge of purebred genetics and quality is not usually found there unless the people have experience of their own outside the office. A cashier at PetSmart or PetCo would have about the same knowledge base as the rest of the general public. Unless a person has experienced a place like YT or the world of professional and reputable purebred breeders they are as much in the dark as anyone else. |
People can be jerks. Its none of the petsmart employees business how you train your dog and I think I would complain. I would have Callie trained to pads if she wasn't so big. Some people don't realize with small dogs there are a whole lot of dangers for them outside. Just lack of knowledge I am guessing on the person at Petsmart. I think having a small dog who looks the size of what people thing is a teacup gives them a great chance to tell people about no such thing as a teacup but if that makes you uncomfortable I would come up with something like nope shes a dog I don't drink my tea out of her or some other funny slightly sarcastic comment. Both seem to be uneducated in small dogs but heck most of use where when we came here. |

That cashier lady should be thankful people like us come in and buy those pee pads that cost an arm and a leg and help pay her paycheck. Just sayin. lol Yeah, like everyone else has said...you'll run across people who have to put in their uneducated 2 cents worth all the time. Just let it roll off your back and go with what your own education has taught you. ;) |
I'm sorry you had a hard day, some people just plain rude! I once had some girl I never met before rudely insist that Henri was a miniature silky, everyone on here has dealt with people like that. You are totally right to not take your young pup out when she doesn't have all her shots yet, I didn't let Henri past the driveway either before he had all of his shots. Just ignore them and keeping doing what your doing, because it sounds like you have a good idea of how to care for your furbaby:) |

We had a similar situation when we first got Snoopy. We were buying potty pads, and the clerk says, "that's just going to make him go in the house." I was speechless at the time, but I wish I would have said, "that's kinda the point". I wonder if the store knows the clerk is trying to stop you buying one of their products.:rolleyes: |
