    Bumped into a neighbour today while Riley and I were out for his morning walk. She was with her daughter and her daughters black rescue lab which seems like a lovely dog. First thing she said was "has Riley put on weight?" :eek: ummmm no because I weigh him and he's still 26kgs......and then the next thing was "have you still got your other dog?" Ummmm yes "only I don't see you out with him, I thought maybe you'd had to get rid of him" :eek: :eek: :eek: ummmmm no he's just very different to Riley and gets trained separately :eek: :eek: :eek:

    Goodness some people really don't think about what they say!!

    This was the lady who never having owned a dog spent 20 minutes at a Christmas party telling me how to sort out Obi's lack of heelwork (although maybe she was right as it's taking a reeeeeaaaaaally long time to get any where (definitely only joking!!!!))

    Some people really don't think before they say things, and if they do think first, they often give even worse advice or make inappropriate comments!
