This makes me upset!

I haven't thought of it as more than a childesh thing lately. But since this evening I am really upset about it. I have a yellow lab named Sugar. She was born in a place that was not puppy approved and there was flees. She is just a little bit *slow* right now. She is not dumb! She is a VERY smart dog. It is just that, she acts like she is * dopey* sometimes and people made fun of her. I feel so bad for her. She is such a sweetheart and that is why I named her Sugar. It was because I couldn't think of anything sweeter than my little Sugar dog. People sometimes ask me if she is sick. I just say no and that she was born a little slow. Then they start talking SLOWLY to her. Like she can't understand english!!!! I don't know why people think like that. As a matter of a fact she was housetrained in less than 6 days. Faster than any other dog around here. She also learned how to open the back door when she wants out to go potty. She is a VERY bright dog to me. I just don't understand why people think that if you are slow, you are dumb. That is not how it works.
