Exactly.. Very good points. But somehow I don't think it will sink in. _____

Perhaps if everyone ignored the dog rule there would be dogs of all shapes and sizes in every store or restaurant. What if they were aggressive dogs? Does that matter? Nah, because I think those rules shouldn't govern me and my dog/human aggressive pet. Sounds quite ridiculous doesn't it? What about people who think it's ok to allow their pet to use the bathroom in those places? Would that matter? Surely not. It's just a stupid rule, right? What if a dog entered those places and wasn't vaccinated, got out and bit someone? Would the rule matter? What if another person's dog had worms, fleas, etc., would that matter in the public arena? Is it a stupid law then? Rules are in place for good reasons.

I feel like if you want to make a choice about breaking a law or whatever then do so but you can only do that freely if it hurts no one else and since we live among others I just don't think that is possible,. I believe in thinking for myself but always OF others. _____ From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Deanna Corey Sent: Friday, February 25, 2011 8:33 PM To: <mailto:[email protected]> [email protected] Subject: Re: [Chihuahuas] Esk-Chi Faries-LYNN Personally Sheila...I think it to be a stupid rule! There are many rules I break in my life because I think them stupid. I will always do this...it is who I am to some extent. I don't have a lot of trust in rules that govern people's simple choices...I like rules that govern the basic principles of right and wrong...not stupid stuff. Do you realize how many laws are on the books out of complete stupidity?? I wont obey those either. Call me a rebel...but I will always break or ignore stupid rules. I don't like others imposing their stupidity on me...I never will! And trust me when I say that just because some politician came up with some rule, that alone will not sway me to find it valuable or important...or something i myself condone or will allow myself to be governed by...i will always decide for myself what is worth obeying. I do not see bowing to legislation as right or wrong...I see choosing to do right or wrong and it has nothing to do with "political policy"... Just my 2 cents. I stand ready to take the consequences if there are fines or whatever but I will gladly pay the price and then continue to choose. So...we just see things differently. I don't flow with the status quo just because it exists...never have...never will!! Wagging Tails in the Dog Park!

Why do you feel this is ok? Seriously? Okey dokey. For me, just because no one knows it does not make it right. I just have this very strong sense of right and wrong and fairness. _____ From: <mailto:[email protected]> [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Deanna Corey Sent: Friday, February 25, 2011 7:19 PM To: <mailto:[email protected]> <mailto:[email protected]> [email protected] Subject: Re: [Chihuahuas] Esk-Chi Faries-LYNN I think the key word is sneak Sheila!!

If your referring to service dogs and blind-aid dogs, I fail to see how that ''makes it harder for places to accept dogs that need to be with their owners for a reason'' since these dogs wear vest to prove why they have to be allowed by law. -------Original Message------- From: dasha <mailto:[email protected]> Date: 2/25/2011 6:29:08 PM To: <mailto:[email protected]> <mailto:[email protected]> <mailto:[email protected]> [email protected] Subject: RE: [Chihuahuas] Esk-Chi Faries-LYNN But when you sneak a dog in like that it just makes it much harder for places to accept dogs that need to be with their owners for a reason. _____ From: <mailto:[email protected]> <mailto:[email protected]> [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Peggy & The Girls Sent: Friday, February 25, 2011 5:32 PM To: <mailto:[email protected]> <mailto:[email protected]> <mailto:[email protected]> [email protected] Subject: Re: [Chihuahuas] Esk-Chi Faries-LYNN Yes, I remember...I was just hoping that He changed his mind by now, especially since their have been postings of several rescue dogs in need of homes and now puppies are available, which doesn't happen to often. Well I guess you can continue to enjoy the group, in the mean time! You know, if you do get a tiny chi, they fit beautifully in a purse bag that even in restaurants it will fit under your seat. As long as the dog is completely covered and is a quiet dog. Some of them look just like a real purse and you can't tell that there is a dog in it. <image1.gif> -------Original Message------- From: <mailto:[email protected]> <mailto:[email protected]> <mailto:[email protected]> [email protected] Date: 2/25/2011 3:28:07 PM To: <mailto:[email protected]> <mailto:[email protected]> <mailto:[email protected]> [email protected] Subject: Re: [Chihuahuas] Esk-Chi Faries-LYNN In a message dated 2/24/2011 10:45:00 P.M.

He feels they are much more responsibility than cats (he's right) and he enjoys the ease with which we can be gone from home for extended periods of time (all day, overnight, etc.) without any cares. I explained he or she would just go with us everywhere, but he mentioned restaurants, stores, and various other places we go that will not accept furry ones. I hate to go against his wishes and just show up with an adorable little one without his blessing as he is a really kind, loving, and thoughtful guy and don't want to make him feel unhappy since the decision would impact him also. He oohs and aahs all the pictures I show him of everyone's cuties here on the group, but he really would prefer we not have one for our own. (Sigh). So I am weighing all my options and biding my time (LOL) to make the best possible decision for everyone in my family. In the meantime, I love living vicariously through and hearing about everyone else's experiences with their Chis on the group, but IF and WHEN, you will all be the first to see and hear about the newest member of my family. Promise.
