People make me so mad!! - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Nikko's_human · 03-17-2006, 07:53 AM

Yesterday I was walking Nikko and we spotted this older man (I'd say he was in his 60's). Nikko of course went into his little performance. He LOVES attention and usually jumps, spins and wags his tail furiously when he sees people. Anyway, the man came up to me and asked me "what did you name this animal?" Animal? huh? I told him his name was Nikko and he went on to talk about his daughter's dog. Then he looks at Nikko while he is being as adorable as ever and says "hey, you might me fond of me but I am not so fond of you!" and he walked away. What the f@$# was that about?

He is lucky my mother raised me to respect my elders otherwise I would have given him a piece of my mind!!

People can be so stupid sometimes and rude with what they say. Yesterday my dogs were out and they were barking at my neighbors friend and he yelled at them.

yorkiegirl2 · 03-17-2006, 08:03 AM

You should have said..
Well, if he was around you every long.. I don't think he be so fond of you either...What an a$$.

rrosenberry · 03-17-2006, 08:04 AM

Yikes~ Miserable man..

yeah,and You could have said " I don't really give two s**ts about your daughters dog, but I was polite and listened."

Nikko's_human · 03-17-2006, 08:06 AM

And the worse part is this idiot came over to ME!!

I didn't throw the dog on him. We were off to the side and I had Nikko's leash very short because i know how he can get when he sees people and not every one likes that. I was being respectful and he comes over to me and insults my dog. Say what you will about me, but NO ONE insults my dog. That really upset me.

rrosenberry · 03-17-2006, 08:14 AM

I know exactly how you feel. I have this GROUCHY old guy neighbor, and he blurts out one day.. " Pick up your dogs s**t."

After I had just picked it up, out of his neighbors yard, I held up the baggie and said " LIKE THIS?!"
When really I wanted to whip it at his face.

Now everytime I go by he glares out his window watching me.
I have NEVER not picked up my dogs do do.. GET OFF MY BACK, you old Goat!

Anyhooo, I know how ya feel.

Some old people and some not so old have lost the joy in living. I know when I took my girls selling Girl Scout cookies this one old woman actually shooed them away like flies. Being only 5 and 7 at the time it really hurt their feelings, but I told them just to say a prayer for the person.

How Rude!!!!

Marie · 03-17-2006, 08:32 AM

Some people are so rude and mean; and just don't like our furbabies. My neighbor hates dogs, she is a grouch and a biash (you know what I mean). If she hears Gucci barking she screams at her, punches the wall ( we live in an apt building) and slams her doors. I try for Gucci not to bark but she is a dog after all, that is how dogs communicate. She even told me that she doesnt like Gucci and she wants me to get rid off her; I told her she is out of her mind.

OMIGOD, she sounds awful

I live in an apartment too, and i know Nikko gets barky sometimes but thankfully no one has complained. Technically we are not supposed to have dogs in the building but lots of people do besides me. Yet, managment says we can have cats

Some cats are bigger and can cause more damage than Nikko ever could. It makes no sense.

stinky · 03-17-2006, 08:48 AM

I’ve been seeing that a lot lately in older men. It comes across as rudeness, but I think it may actually be an attempt to be clever? I don’t know, clever or not, it’s still unpleasant.

Gucci is the smallest dog in the building But she doesn't care about them cause they don't live next to her. So she takes it on my Gucci. In my building you see a pit, rotwiller, charles spaniel, etc. You can hear them barking but she only fights with me. And is not like Gucci is barking all day long cause that is not the case. She barks if she hears a noise in the hallway and I stop her rite away. Oh well we are looking to move is just that we haven't found an apt we can afford yet, we live in NYC and rents are sky high.

By the way my neighbor is on her 20-30's.
