Has anyone said this to you and your yorkie? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Kodak · 12-08-2006, 09:44 AM

It never fails when me and my Kodak are outside or in the store, some idiot says: That's not a real dog, that's a dayum toy!

I've heard this expression from all IDIOTS alike, including neighbors, relatives and people I don't know.

Then they go on to say, I hope you didn't pay a lot, or my kids or my dog could not be around anything that small.

I'm like WTH? And in my mind I'm saying, that's why your azz don't have one!

A lot of people call mine a "rat". I don't really care, I think they are just jealous. I just brush it off and move on.

This stupid people don't know what they are missing!!!! Just ignore them!

Emmsmom · 12-08-2006, 09:51 AM

Oh my lord! I hear comments like this all the time. I usually just ignore them. Some people are just born to be rude!

dragonflysw · 12-08-2006, 09:51 AM

yep.....I know where you are coming from! And I'm from the south, where Bull dogs and hunting dogs are extremely popular....so it's probably worse here! 'That ain't much of a dog is it!" "looks like a furry rat" "You need to trade that in for a 'real' dog"..........I get these saying from people on a regular basis! Then I come across people that fall in love right away and won't stop following you around wanting to 'buy' them from me!! Each to their own! We love our babies and that is all that matters! I just tell people...."I don't remember asking for you opinion."

Alot of people with big dogs have told me that i dont have a real dog. I dont care they are just jealous they dont have a cute little yorkie that sits on their lap and gives them kisses like I do

Hokule'a · 12-08-2006, 09:51 AM

Idiots abound everywhere!!!! In my 'old' age I have learned to either ignore them or give them a big grin and say in a sweet but sarcastic voice, "Are you talking to me?"

blondflava · 12-08-2006, 09:58 AM

Wow, I must be lucky because I haven't heard a comment like that (yet?). Even people walking their big dogs such as Danes or Pitbulls admit he's cute. Well, there are a lot of people owning a small dog in NY, maybe it has to do something with it?

Lexi Rae · 12-08-2006, 09:59 AM

some people have said to me,,, " you call that a dog" and my reply is>>>
yes like your mother..... thats all i have to say

Kodak · 12-08-2006, 10:01 AM

One guy said to me that's not a real dog, that's like having a stuffed animal, my dog will rip him to shreds.

When he walked away I gave him one of these

but it was a different finger.

I do ignore people, but sometimes it burns me up because it is so rude.

Hahahahahaha! I am cracking up at this one, I like it a lot. If people could only read my mind after their stupid comments, they wouldn't insult no one else.

chachi · 12-08-2006, 10:06 AM

You guys are cracking me up

Lexi Rae · 12-08-2006, 10:11 AM
