A friend of mine from high school stoped by over the weekend on her way to Miami. She brought a friend with her, who I was told loved animals and really wanted to see my Zoo Crew. I though great, I get to see my old friend and show off my babies too.
Well things never seem to work out the way you hope sometimes. This woman was what I thought to be total out of line. She didn't like Mooch!!!She said she hated to look at Mooch, because of her eyes. She called them evil eyes and called Mooch the devil dog!!!!! She wanted me to lock Mooch up in our room while she was here, Mooch scared her to look at.
For those that don't know Mooch is blind, so her eyes are a little odd to look at. But to call her the devil dog and ask me to lock her up in the room, was way out of line, I thought!
So I told her that!
"I'm not locking my dog up because you can't deal with looking at a blind dogs eyes" "Just don't look and is you call her a devil dog one more time you are welcome to leave." So they left!!
Here's a picture of Mooch. It shows what Mooch's eyes look like. Yes they are different to look at, but not evil eyes. Just a blind dog eye's.
My high school friend says she understands that her friend was a "little" out of line, but she doesn't understand why I would not lock Mooch up for the short time they where here, just to make peace.
NO!! I'm not locking her up for anyone or anything, She blind!! She scares easy and if she can't smell us around her she goes nuts tring to figure out how to get back to us. I put her in the bedroom one time when we had small children over and Mooch just keep running into the door, trying to get out to us. I told myself that I would never do that to her again.
If Mooch was a bad dog and attacked people or if someone came over that was scared to death of dogs. I'd have no problems putting my dogs up somewhere to make a guest feel safe. But to lock them up because someone doesn't want to LOOK at them....NO, I won't do it.
I'm right....Right????
