I am a dog person, as are many of my friends...Id even say I am one of those people that consider their dog to be a member of their family, often times choosing to spend a day going out for a hike with my furry friend instead of spending time with noisy people friends who just want to sit around and really not do much other than drink alcohol.
Also, let me say that my dog is fairly well behaved. She listens, she doesnt jump on people, she won't climb on your furniture, and she want pee in your house.
Now, when I do go out to visit friends that are dog people, I usually don't have any problems. These people like the attention she gives them, which usually just amounts to a wanting to get petted, than she goes away.
Now, when it comes to non-dog people the non-verbal communication I get ranges from "get this animal out of my face", to looks from them that appear as if they think I have 4 heads when I set there and pat my furry friend on her head.
So, my question to these non-dog liking people, what is it about dogs you do not like, and what is it about us dog owners you find strange?
