House Rules

My big thing is going to visit people the have taught their yappers no manners the second that I sit down jump on me and "GIVE KISSES". My dogs are not allowed to lick faces, we were still training our newest when my sister in law came to live with us I saw her let the dog lick her face, and gave her the LOOK so she got a sad look on her face and got onto the dog. I do not care I can not do dogs that lick my face not even my own dog.

I need to apologize for this ^

There have been (frequent) times when i'll post a question and get very rude people flaming me (usually a select few, who haven't posted here yet i don't think). But that's not the case in this particular post. I'm going through a lot right now, and I think i let it get to me and took EVERYTHING everyone said very personal and felt attacked. After re-reading i see i was wrong and i'm sorry.

The person who was rude to my dog doesn't come around anymore. She got really excited one time and jumped onto the couch (which she's allowed on) but it was right before someone was trying to sit right where she was ( i think i was about to feed her treats) so i asked her to get down, which she did she always does, and this former friend decided it was his job to yell at her "BAD DOG, your a BAD BAD DOG!" He got quite an earful and is lucky i didn't throw him out of my house right there. My dog WAS here first plain in simple i DO value her company more than most all my "friends" ( i can think of two friends who i value more or just as much as Angel). I'll go as far to say I'll choose her over my husband and he knows this, he loves her like i do. (he knows if he ever tried to pull any "its me or the dog" crap i'd pack his stuff for him lol)

Beyond that we have a "friend" who doesn't have big enough to tell the puppy that he doesn't want her on him. Which isn't hard, if i'm not right there to tell her not to jump in his lap he just sits there and "suffers" trying to push her off (think weak hand shake) making wimpy noises like "meh" (think a toddler). We're still working on her jumping, she's hyper and loves to snuggle. She's made progress but isn't perfect. Plus i don't particularly like this "friend" but he's my friends boyfriend and we've all known each other since like middle school. So we endure his company.

I think once we get everything situated at the apartment i'll talk to them and tell them what i expect of them when they are visiting.

Thanks everyone!

That would be me. Sorry for the post, if you happened to see it before I deleted it. I've declared the rest of August to be If-you-don't-have-anything-useful-to-say-don't-say-anything-at-all month.

I hope you can find that happy ground with these friends. The McD's would be a deal breaker for me. The smell makes me want to hurl.

Its ok, no hard feelings. ^_^ I hope you saw my apology post too. I'm with you on August being " If-you-don't-have-anything-useful-to-say-don't-say-anything-at-all month." lol. I'm not sure if its the weather or the economy putting a squeeze on all of us that's putting us all on edge.

I've been going through a lot these past couple of weeks and its all either about to come to an end this week or get worse so i'm all stressed out right now but that's no reason to take it out on you guys.
