My favorite comment ever, directed at my then-boyfriend's morbidly obese male dachshund whom he refused to put on a diet: "Ah! Is she pregnant? When are the puppies due?" I laughed SO hard, it was such an "I told you so!" moment.
The terrier crew - Pepper, Sequoia, Georgie and Lucky - get the typical ... "Is that a Jack Russell? Is that a Wishbone dog? Are they really hyper?"
Vanilla is very unique-looking and people always say, "WOW. What kind of dog is that? Her eyes are so pretty!"
Keito gets the most comments, and more than one serious offer to buy him. One guy even got out his wallet and started counting off 100's. Seriously. People say, "Holy cow, I've NEVER seen a dog like that? What is he? Where did you get him?" And strangely, several people have asked, "Can he bark?", I'm assuming thinking he is a basenji, which he really looks nothing like.
Haven't taken the IG's out anywhere yet, so we will see ....
"We give dogs the time we can spare, the space we can spare and the love we can spare. And in return, dogs give us their all. It's the best deal man has ever made" - M. Facklam
"We are raised to honor all the wrong explorers and discoverers - thieves planting flags, murderers carrying crosses. Let us at last praise the colonizers of dreams."- P.S. Beagle
"All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king." - J.R.R. Tolkien
