I Almost Got Bit
 

:mad: I just have to tell you all about this.ok so i take my daughter to a new doctor today and we go in fill out the paper work and so on, the lady at the desk says to me, do you like small dogs? and im like oh ya i have 4 yorkies and she starts laughing and getting excited, im thinking ok does she have one or what? she says well do you mind if we let my yorkie hugo out in the office for a bit? and im like oh sure i would love to see him, we were the only ones in there abd i guess the last ones for the day, ok so here comes hugo and i reach down of course to pet him and he snaps right at me:mad: if i wouldnt of pulled my hand away as quick as i did i would of lost a few fingers:mad: the lady starts screaming at hugo and starts kicking at hime to get in the other room, she looks at me and says omg im so sorry he has never acted like that before, it must be because you have to many dogs:mad: like it was my fault:mad: my daughter seen the whole thing and then didnt want to see the doc but i made her. we left and driving home she tells me , ya mom the doctor said we shoudnt have that many dogs:mad: its not good for the animals or for your inviroment:mad: WHAT THE... ok so we not going back there thats for sure. thanks for listening i really needed to vent.

She was kicking at him ? Did she actually kick him and make contact ? That's a terrible reaction for someone with a little yorkie :(

Hugo didn't know she owned 4 yorkies, he probably could smell her yorkies' scent on her.

But, that woman should NOT be kicking at a little yorkie like that!:mad:

And why are 4 yorkies bad for your environment?:confused:

That woman is RUDE! I would not return to that doctor's office either.

I wouldn't take my child back to that office either. I can't believe she kicked her dog just because he tried to bite you.

Just don't go back

That's awful for you and your little girl. They both sound like psychos! I feel sorry for little Hugo too.

I am not taking my daughter back there, the doc had no right to judge me on how many pets i have , we were there for help for my daughter not her opion on how many pets i have. and you are all right , that poor dog did not need to be kicked and screamed at:( all she had to do was put him away from us.i told her i never had a yorkie react that way with me since i have been around them so long, and what if that would of been a child or what if he would of made contact with me, i do feel bad for hugo, i just hope no one else has to go thru that, that was a bit scary for us:(

Poor Hugo...I can\'t believe that woman kicked her little yorkie!
And poor you and your daughter! What right does that doctor have to judge you like that, and then put ideas into your daughter\'s head about not being a good environment?? That\'s just wrong...

Nothing about this incident makes sense, from the dog snapping at you, the way she mishandled it...and the doctors remarks. The only sense to this is nonsense. Sorry for you and your daughter.

I work at a people doctor\'s office. Otis goes with me occasionally, when the doctors are out. Ollie gets car sick so he doesn\'t go as much. Otis LOVES when the people come to see him. I keep him baby gated in my office because he\'s a runner. I guess it\'s possible her dog has never reacted that way before today, but come on..... If Otis EVER acted that way, I wouldn\'t suggest that he be let out to be around strangers. Even if someone did have other dogs, he would just smell, smell, smell, never snap!

No dogs in doctor,s office
 

As much as we love our fur babies, I believe it is against health regulations to have a dog in a medical office. There are children and adults who are allergic. This dr. should be reported. Further, who died and left him in charge of deciding how many dogs you should have in your home. Report him and ditch him.

That\'s crazy! Yep, I agree, don\'t go back. . .

I would become a biter too if someone kicked me all the time.
