| UPS delivery girl!!! Let me start out by saying this today is my 23rd birthday, and my mom had sent my a package. Today I recieved it. Only major problem..... The delivery girl! She walks up to the door and knocks and Tigger starts barking. Well the minute I open the door Tigger runs out! I'm telling him NO! to get in the house!(he knows these commands and will usually obey me), and the girl looks down at him and scoots him away(looked like she was trying to hit him)with the my box, then he runs behind her to her other side and she lifts her leg to kick him (which she did gently and then pushes him away with her foot) by this time I pick him up (trying to be polite) put him in the house and close the door. The entire time this is going on I'm saying "Oh he won't bite don't worry." Her snooty reply "He'd better not, I don't wanna have to hit him!" I gave her a dirty look, because I wasn't about to stoop to her level, and signed her board. I didn't say anything directly to her as she left and she didn't say anything to me. BUT as I was closing the door(I couldn't resist) I made sure she was within hearing distance with the door open a few inches called her a BIOTCH only without the O. (that made me feel a little better) I hope she heard. I was so tempted to say "Hit my dog and I'll make sure you're fired!" what would y'all have done?

| Happy Birthday and don't let anybody ruin it for you! Sometimes people have a fear of dogs, any size large or small. Possibly she has been bitten before, who knows? It's unfortunate when we want others to treat our fur kids with the same compassion as we do ourselves and it doesn't happen.

| HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! First of all. Second, I can't believe how rude some people are. How can you even TALK about kicking a dog that small?! I don't get it at all. I couldn't kick or hit or ANYTHING to ANY animal....but a yorkie? For crying out loud, most of them are as big as our feet! Or just a smidge bigger. I'm sorry that you had to deal with someone as bitchy as her on your birthday no less.

| Happy Birthday!!!!!! You know it would be different if you had a huge dog like a great dane (I have one so nobody think I'm downing the breed) that came running out the door. That would actually to me be understandable b/c that's a dog that could seriously injur you. But a yorkie???? Come on, a yorkie can bite your ankles and that's about it. I understand these people probly have to deal with animals and not always in a good way but they should consider the dog that is coming at them. Just my opinion Crystal

| I dont want to start a problem here, I know the lady could of handled the situation better, but you might want to consider her perspective. Doing that kind of job she has probably been biten, or atleast close. When I was grooming, the owners would ALWAYS say "Oh dont worry he wont bite", I never believe that. Even a Yorkie bite could cause stiches depending, and if it was coming at me like that I would try to defend myself somehow. I love dogs and all animals SOO much but Ive learned that some dogs are just neurotic and will bite with no warning, ESPECIALLY defeding their property. Happy Bday by the way

Donating YT 7000 Club Member | I'm sure someone in my house would have said, "Well, thats good. Because I wouldn't want to have to hit you!" probably me I can't believe she'd do that. I'd be mad too if I were you! Good job though, for not sinking to her level! Oh and HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!

| Happy Birthday! I can also see her perspective but she could have gotten her point out in a more kind way. when any one comes to my door, I put the baby gate up before opening it. Ahia has sneaked out too many times.
