What are your most common questions?

[Binky]

-Does she shed?
-Is she a Samoyed??!!!!  This from a woman who had a Samoyed!
-She's a puppy?  How much bigger could she get?
-Can I hug her?(kids love to hug her for some reason)
-How often do you vaccuum? (every day, sometimes twice)

My favorite is when you are at a crowded event and someone asks you if he bites. Yeah, I would bring a dog that would bite around hundreds of people. Duh!!!

The shedding question is funny also, because I am usually covered in hair when asked. No, all this hair on my shirt is from me.

It really bothers me when people cringe up their face and ask these questions like he is some kind of mutant alien and they refer to him as a "thing". Example = "How much does that thing weigh?", How much did that thing cost?". Grrrrrrrr!!!

I took Samson & Pippin to Theisens today & got asked "How much do they eat...I bet they eat alot...I bet they eat you out of house & home" or some variation of at least a half dozen times.
Met some young dingy girl who asked no questions at all but almost immediatly squealed "I'M GETTING ONE"...I strongly discouraged that without alot of research first to which she replied "Well, I already have a Lab/Retriever mix I know ALL about dogs"!...I told her Pyrs weren't like Labs or Retrievers & got "I know all about dogs" again... So,I told her Pyrs were really dog aggressive & probably wouldn't get along with her dog & went on my way ...O.k...I was being bad but I shuddered to think of her owning one of my beloved breed because she didn't have a clue & didn't want a clue she just wanted "one".
I also had a guy come up & tell me he used to have a St. Bernard too ...WHAT?...LOL!
Here are my rare white St. Bernards disguised as sheep so they don't get mobbed everywhere they go.

I love the price question.  I am now saying " If you have to ask"

If someone ask me about 'how much they cost?' I always throw in the fact that vet bills, medications, sugury etc.. cost double. Usually makes their eyes bug out since vet bills are expensive enough as it is. It's a good way to weed out those that just want a big paw for 'looks'.
