Talk About Rude HI All, So today I went to a BBQ at my sisters, she has a yorkie and a maltese, she just got her baby boy yorkie a moth ago, so any way we are in the yard playing with the furkids, nice fenced in yard and all, here comes her neighbor and yells over the fence to me, hey how much for that little rat:mad: I said to my sis what the hell did she just say, mad now:mad: I said are you speaking to me? she says yes, I want one of those dogs like your thats still small and rat looking, is she full grown? I said no she is almost 6mths and a yorkie, she said , ya i know what it is, your sister has the same kind but much bigger:mad: I said excuse me , I have to go check the grill, now my sister thinks i was rude not to give her any info.... WHAT ARE YOU KIDDING ME:mad: sorry so long i needed to vent. thanks for listening. |
I don't blame you, I would have excused myself also. People can be quite rude, even though she didn't think she was being offensive. |
You should have told her she doesn't deserve a yorkie if she thinks it looks like a rat. |
That sucks and is very rude. I've had ppl call mine rats too but ppl i know, it's so annoying :mad: |
What makes people think that dogs look like rats? Rats have beady little eyes, a long nose with whiskers that stick out, round ears, short legs, a long fat body, and a long tail that has no hair on it. Next time you should say, "Wow - if you can't tell the difference between a dog and a rat, A. you might need glasses, or B. you're not ready for a pet." |
Ewwww I dont blame you at all for being mad! What a rude ^&*() She does not deserve a Yorkie and I hope she does not get one. |

i don't blame you at all. It reminds me about time me and my mom were shopping at kohl's. My mom had her yorkie, penelope in her bag and she was laying there being very well behaved. My mom sets the carrier on the counter as I was paying. The cashier looked at the bag a few times. Then she looked again, did this fake scream and said OMG I thought that you had a rat in that bag. It was so clear she was just trying to be rude. |
Goodness, why are people so rude? I can't imagine speaking to someone like that... |
That was just plain and simple rudeness at its worse!!!!:thumbdown She got more out of you than you needed to say!!!! A dirty look might have been more appropriate. |
Iam not a rude person at all and I dont want my sis mad at me , But she could of used another way to approch me to ask questions, molly is small and is cut short right now, so my sis said thats why she called her a rat:mad: im still upset about this and i know i shoudnt be, my sis said i was the rude one for walking away, now I feel bad:( should I:confused: thanks for the shoulders:) :) |
I would just shrug it off... |
i dont want this to come out wrong but why do people get so offended by the rat comment? my dad teases me about it all the time and it doesnt hurt my feelings. most people say that as a joke and dont mean for you to take it seriously..lighten up a little... if she was mean and nasty about the whole conversation thats one thing but to get offened by a commend joke isnt..i think its rude when people with yorkies think they are better and snub people for asking questions or trying to start a conversation with them. That person may have been generally interested in the breed, and you could have made a furture yorkie friend by educating her on the breed. jmo:rolleyes: |
You make a good point tammy, maybe i over reacted, now i feel guilty and will call my sister and apolizie for my rudeness, and wish her neighbor luck in finding her little rat. |
im not trying to make you feel bad, i would just say hi next time you see the neighbor and ask if she had found a yorkie yet and maybe a nice conversation would start...dont stess yourself..ive been none to offend people..my husband says im very anti-social,...i have never been big on meeting people so things dont always come out right..im usually very nervous when i meet someone, so i tease or joke and sometimes its not a good ice breaker..maybe she was the same way chin up no worries everyone will get over it =) |
