I hate being yelled at

[red98vett]

man - what IS with people these days ?

I'm getting a new view on people lately myself. I'm very easy going and always trying to help when I can and can't imagine talking to someone like that. Your post hit me especially hard today....

I can't wrap my head around how people can treat others .....It's such a "All about ME' world now and it seems like there are way too many in that don't care how they sound or how they make others feel.

Lately I'm starting to think being nice is a fault and wonder what the hell is the point if someone is going to knock you down for reasons unknown

what a jerk that woman was. I hope she was proud of herself

Then walk away. You don't owe strangers any details and the more info you provide to "nosey poseys" the more likely you will have to defend your actions. This is YOUR pup and it is YOUR business.

Better yet, next time you go to buy pupy formula, call me so I can tell people to mind their own business I haven't had the chance to do that lately, I think I am due the pleasure

Well said!

Please! A lot of pups that stay with the mom till 12 weeks will still occasionally nurse, so tell me how that is bad!! I dont mind ignorant people, I can deal with ignorant, but I cannot deal with ignorant AND opinionated!! One time a lady called me when I had puppies (not yorkies) and was litterally ticked off at me because I wouldnt let her have one at 4 or 5 weeks old!! She said "well I have gotten puppies that young before and they were FINE!". I told her to keep looking.....some people just dont realize how stupid they sound.

A,

Your good I would have told her where to put her unwanted effing advice.

[Katys mom]

Next time tell her to take a leap.

Aw, don't feel bad bc some crazy lady has nothing better to do than harass you when you are caring for a poor puppy. I agree, you should have told her to F OFF.

Thanks ya'll. It was just one of those days where DUG was on my last nerve and I was stressed out over some other things, so it wouldn't have taken much to make me cry anyway. Then when she started yelling at me that I was hurting Caillou and damaging him and all the wonderful stuff it just did me in.

Normally I try to remember something another YTer said a while back - "Opinions are like a**holes. Everyone's got one and some of them stink."

But it was just one of those days. I am feeling better today.
