I have 6 sweet housedogs that i love very much. some are small some are not. my house is clean and they are?

Question

. very loved and cared for. they are my babies. what is a good reply when people ask if im crazy for having so many dogs. people are rude.

Answer 1

be rude back tell them its none of their business why you have 6 dogs say why does it matter to you anyway they are not theres say i am a animal lover. If I could have 6 dogs I would I love animals very much especially dogs. I don't think you are crazy you just love animals like many people in this world. i think its great that you give so many dogs a great home .

Answer 2

I have 6 house dogs also just like you all different sizes. I work hard at taking care of them. I also have 3 pygmy goats outside of course. I just wish some people would give thier children as much care & love as I do my animals & a clean enviroment as such. I get tired of that ? too. I tell them im not crazy. They are a pleasure to own and each one has a story. When told of how they would be dead if we would not of saved them all from bad conditions. The people who ask if we are crazy, seem to understand a little better. My children are grown & i have plenty of tome to care for them. When I hear u have these dogs i sense you are a big harted person. Not that u are crazy.

Answer 3

I have several dogs in the house, from big to small and i have had the same problem with people. I have 10 dogs in the house and my house is clean, it takes constant work but it stays that way.
I have had people come and make comments about my house being a dog kennel and what i have told people is if they do not like my dogs then I suggest they do not come back. I have also had people come and yell and hit my dogs, well they do not come back.
It is very rude to comment or judge a person because of their animals.They are there to see you right? Well their comments need to stay inside their minds because they are at your house.
I do not go to peoples houses to judge whether they have a spotfree clean house, or how many animals they have, i go to visit them and not judge them, I expect the same with people, but it doesn't work that way.

Answer 4

Hi it's quite a picture to envision 6 dogs in your home full time - cute. As the mom of 5 kids, 1 furry canine daughter, with a litter of 9 puppies and 3 cats I can relate to what you are asking lol! Firstly, try not to be overly sensitive about these remarks, a lot of people are just accustomed to saying whatever crosses their mind without a thought of how it may be received. You know your life and that you love and enjoy your family. I usually just respond with, "you wouldn't believe how often I've heard that, laugh and say, "yes, they keep me busy but each one is unique and wonderful" Anyone out of the "norm" is bound to attract attention - you're just doing something that requires more tolerance, strength, commitment and so on then most people could imagine. Enjoy what you have with your head up, and laugh it off.

Answer 5

I have 6 dogs (all different sizes) and they r well cared for and the house is clean also. I get the same reaction but when they ask again "how many dogs do u have??" I respond "Its cheaper than therapy and not enough!!!!" U r not alone, people who don't understand r just jealous cause they want all that unconditional love!!!!!!

Answer 6

I would tell them to "screw off". Unless they have complete knowledge of your house hold and the treatment of your dogs than it is none of their business. I am a breeder of Border Collies and at some times I have close to 10 dogs in my house. My house is very clean and all my dogs are well cared for. Just say to them that they have no knowledge of your home life and that they have no leg to stand on when they call you crazy.

Answer 7

Aaawww! they sound so cute! I'm trying to get a dog, but I dont know where to start. If you love yur dogs you are definitly not crazy. just tell them that your dogs are clean and well loved and that if they had your dogs they would love them too. If they still think you are crazy just ignore them. dogs are sweet loyal and friendlycompanions and you are so lucky to have them.

Answer 8

I have 6 adult dogs, 7 puppies, my daughter has 1 adult dog & 1 puppy. We also have 2 outside cats. We love them all & I don't care what others think. I was actually called a "hoarder" once. I laughed in her face & walked off.

Answer 9

You can tell them that YOu wouldnt know what you would do with out them They re love is unconditional everyday even the bad ones and thats more than what some people can do or show

Answer 10

Tell them to mind there own business!!!!! I have 4 dogs and a cat and love each and every one of them!
