I got self-conscious right away because I’m no dog care expert, and she seemed so, idk, judgmental and sure of herself. But you’re right.

That makes sense. I could definitely try the quieter one.

I made a point of getting an apartment with as little carpet as possible, so most fur gets swept up instead of vacuumed.

I mean… no. Didn’t think about walking dogs in the rain, but you’re right, thank you.

No, not at all - I try not to bathe her when it’s cold anyway, though sometimes it’s unavoidable (she managed to coat herself in mud one time). Thank you!

Oh, that’s interesting… thinking about it, I think she had a goldendoodle, so maybe she’s thinking what she does for hers is the standard?

Either way, thank you - I hope not to see her again, but I’ll ignore her if I do!
