Okay so does this happen to anyone else? ....
So today we are at the park like we do everyday and a lady noticed my frenchie first and complimented how cute she was, but when Gio came running down the path and the lady gasped and went on to tell ME how unhealthy english bulldogs are and how many health problems they have, and she knew this because she watched a special on them 3 years ago! UMMMM THANKS! Ya I politely told the lady that I know everything about this bread all ready and was fully aware of the health problems these EB have before I adopted him, and I also went on to explain that these guys still have great lives even with the health problems as long as the owners take care of them like they should! BUT THEN I brought them to the groomers for a bath and when I was there I saw a guy with an Olde English and was telling the guy what a cute dog he had and that I had an english and french getting bathed, and the guy did the same exact thing the lady at the park did, he began to tell me how unhealthy they are! Is it just me or does anyone else ever have this problem?! I was so taken back by this, I have gotten these comments before but both people seemed as if I was a bad person for owning an EB! But then I saw Gio running around and as happy as a clam and realized that they are just jealous they don't have a sweet, happy, loving, funny dog like my Gio!:D
Just wanted to upload some pictures from today! (The first two are of them after getting a bath, SO CLEAN! And the last one is of Gio on the way to the groomers (you can see little Diva looking out the window behind him!)
