Actual conversation that happened in obedience class today:

Emoore · 01-27-2012, 02:59 PM

Classmate: "Your dog is beautiful, how old is he?"

Me: "Thank you. He's about a year old."

Classmate: "And is he neutered?"

Me: "No, not yet."

Classmate, drawing back in horror:: "Oh, he's really aggressive then!"

Classmate then proceeds to take her (presumably neutered) Labradoodle to the other side of the classroom and stay away from us for the rest of the class.

Somehow Kopper managed to get through the whole advanced obedience class without mauling anyone. Although his mom was seriously thinking about it.

Gah! Gotta love it, right?

Funny thing is, almost every 'doodle' I have met has had issues. I think I only met one I would trust... I hope you laughed the ignorance off

Ew doodles, you let Kopper speak to doodles?!?!

I probably would have walked away from her first, I dont like Labs or Poodles so that combo is a double whammy.

Seriously though, some people are really stupid. I know it's not nice but it's the truth.

She probably did you a favour by reacting so ignorantly. I just had to Google "Labradoodle" cuz I didn't know such a thing even existed or what it was.

And yes....yes she did do you a favour.

Well if you follow popular logic...GSD = Aggressive, Testicles = Agressive, so a GSD with testicles is aggressive squared.

Its also funny because the most aggressive GSDs at my club are all nuetered.

Is that exponential? Does a one testicled GSD get less aggressive points than a two testicled GSD?

No, its actually more because its angry at all the other dogs that have 2 testicles, therefore more aggressive to make up for the fact that one is missing.

Joey's intact, and he's mostly a mush (except when he sees squirrels, cats and some dogs).
