Little bit of a rant and information for people⚠️
If you see a puppy being carried around please please ask to stroke the puppy beforehand - any dog for that matter.
Every single time I've taken Nala out in her carrier to get socialised I've had At least one person stroke her without my permission. I even had my back turned and somebody squeezed their hand between my arms and was stroking and making stupid noises at her. So also too close to my personal space!
I understand that puppies are cute. But you need to ask permission. She is young and still a little bit nervous of new people. So I do not want everybody saying hello to her and her becoming overwhelmed especially behind my back as I cannot read my puppies body language if I'm unaware somebody is handling her. The last thing I want is her to become reactive because every Tom, Dick and Harry is sticking there hands in my dogs face without my permission.
Please have some respect for dogs and their owners ♥️
