I understand exactly how you feel... I get it all the time about Rusty and Brisco (my two Saints)
"What kind of dogs are those?" -ignorant mom at Petco
"They're Saint Bernards." -me
"Nooo, they can't be. are they mixed with Pyrenees or Collie or something?" Ignorant mom
"Uh, no." -Me
"Well Their Fur is Really Fluffy." -Ignorant Mom
"Saint bernards Can have rough, longer coats or Smooth, Shorter coats. These Two happen to be the former. And they've just been bathed." - Me
"I don't think They are Saint Bernards, Your Little one (Brisco, who is nowhere near to being full grown and is already a lean 150 pounds at 13 months) isn't BIG enough." - Ignorant Mom
"Mommy, Their Beethoven's" - Ignorant Mom's Super Intelligent Little Girl who has just come out of the Bird room at Petco (I really hate it when my dogs are called Beethovens, but in this case, I was thankful)
No, I have ABSOLUTELY NO CLUE as to what kind of dog I own...
