Some people bother me!

i have found that most people are pretty ignorant when it comes to the care of dogs, they think that you throw down a bowl of something and pet them every so often and they are fine, that dogs take care of themselves.

when i come across people like that though i am always honest and straitforward with them. like if they ask why you let your dogs go to the bathroom in the school yard , explain that you didn;t and how did they come to this conclusion. at least they were interested in why their puppy does the things it does, thats a step in the right direction.

Perhaps they saw you had dogs and wanted to ask you questions but didn't know how to go about it and got your attention by yelling across the road. I don't know. Because it certainly was not their business. I think that if they are to get a puppy they should most definitely research beforehand or ask questions beforehand. It's not good to go into the ownership of a puppy clueless. But at least they cared enough to ask.

Im totally with you all, im glad they asked! i was happy to answer their questions! But WHAT IF we hadnt been there, i mean would they not have known to give there dogs toys to play and have fun with, or know their dogs need fed on a regular basis, not just once a week or whatever they were doing! but im glad i was there to help in some small way!

Then it was a blessing you were there because they would have been clueless about their puppy and never have known what to do.

I wouldn't even worry about the "what-ifs" because it didn't happen and you WERE there
