You Have Been Warned...

I always try to take Ripley(now 15months) with me as much as possible.Today we went to the plant nursery(her favorite place lots of squirrels and kitties).Of coarse I always have to add at least 20minutes,for the people that want to stop ask questions about Ripley and pet her.Today I had a lady ask me if we had been down to the farmers market down town the prior Saturday.She had remembered Ripley being there :wink: The woman's comment about remembering my dog not me reminded me of something I had read and thought I'd share for anyone considering a OES puppy

"DO NOT GET THIS DOG!!! If you don't like people,and/or don't like being delayed,then this is NOT the dog for you! When accompanied by this dog you will be stopped by strangers in all kinds of places,at all times with qestions and comments like "what kind of dog is that?"Can I pet that dog?"and THAT is the most Beautiful dog I've ever seen!" People with scary body piercings and wild colored hair will SMILE at you and say "cool dog,dude" You have been warned.....

For me,I don't mind. I totally agree "cool dog,dude" :hearts:

Very cute! :aww:
:clappurple: but if you clip their hair it confuses people. :mrgreen:
Our last oes Katy used to be really annoyed if she had been out for walkies and no one had stopped to pet her, tell her she was beautiful etc. She used to strut home really pleased when someone had paid her homage. But, if no one had acknowledged her, she used to really sulk....She was beautiful bless her xx

ps still cant talk about her without a lump coming in my throat... :cry:
Haha so true!

Although with my size and boisterous personality people tend to remember me a bit as well. Probably the fear thing.

Haha! Sounds like some of us owners 8)
I had Chewie and Maggie (coonhound) at the vet yesterday for rabies shots and HW tests (negative!).
Chewie had a crowd, Maggie was just kind of "there". :?
She did make sure she butted in and got her share of petting though!
Good on you Maggie, you go girl!! :D
I took Daphne and Lilly to the beach a couple of times last week and we felt like movie stars. We had a crowd of people petting them, taking their pictures etc. They just loved it! :P
