| While we're on the topic of DUMB people... I have been reading about a few of you that have had people just say stupid stuff to you...this reminds me of last weekend. I took maggie downtown with me...we had some friends in from out of town and they wanted to go to some of the little shops on Broadway and buy some souvenirs. We were then going to the big park down the street. So I took Maggie. I was letting her walk on her leash down the main strip and this guy said "she looks like she would rather be somewhere else" I just looked at him and said "oh, how can you tell????" he just said "she just looks like it". well..first of all, she was so excited to be "out", she loves going for walks and loves people...she wags her tail, gets all worked up...and that is how she was acting. i just said "um, ok...glad you know my dog better than I do..." he didn't say anything else. blows my mind. some people are dumb. My friend says "God must really like stupid people...he sure made a lot of them" LOL

LOL! Absolutely true! What is it about yorkies that makes people feel the need to express their opinions (whether good or bad) so openly? I have chihuahuas as well and they get dressed up and go places as well and I never get the comments the way I do with Susanah.

| i don't know why people feel like it's ok to make rude comments just because your out with you dog. would he say the same thing to a mother and child??? i see alot of miserable kids out and i hold my comments to myself. it goes back to the old saying 'if you don't have anything nice to say.. don't say anything at all." these people are rude and have no class or manners.

i really have no idea. i need to come up with a good list of come-backs. i used to have a good list going when i had my great dane. you hear the same things all the time "that's not a dog, that's a horse....wow..how much does he eat???" i had a great list of things to say.. "how much does he eat??? oh, about as much as your dog weighs." "no, it's a dog...that doesn't like stupid people" ok...I'll stop. but you get the idea. we need to come up with a good list of come-backs for dumb comments we get about our yorkies...

When i would be out and about with Heidi i used to get so many rude comments..usually Kids or men trying to be funny, they would say "look at that RAT" or just point and laugh! i couldn't believe how rude people could be! I would just be rude back at them..Heidi was like a child to me and if they insulted her they insulted me too. I just don't understand why they found a little dog so amusing..It would be worse if she was wearing a coat or a jumper. made me soooooo angry!
