I hate it when people comment on Tani at the dog park. Tani is such a mixed bag, people always feel that it's necessary to "help me" figure it out, like I asked. People confidently announce to me that she's part pitt or part greyhound or part husky or whatever, like they are experts. She's my dog, and I don't even know. Although, based on the eyes and the merle socks that don't show in the avatar, I'd say that aussie is a good guess for some part of her. I don't know why people can't just keep their comments complimentary like, "oooh, what a pretty dog" or something like that. You'd never walk up to a person and go "So what are you, like part African American, maybe a little Indian? Some Dutch in there somewhere? Your eyes look Irish. My mom was Irish, but you look like you're about 50 pounds heavier than she was."
