I was at the pet shop looking for some spring toys and treats for Tricky today. The store was filled with new puppy owners looking for things for their precious new fur babies. Well, it is spring almost. This lady had a 12 week old Bernese Mountain puppy. I don't know what got into my little guy today, but he was barking at another customer that strolled in without a pet. He kept barking and would not quiet down. The lady with the Bernese pup told me I should use a choke chain to keep my pup under control. Then she asked me what kind of mutt is he? I was so mad could not get any words out of my mouth. Paid for my treats and new toys scooped up my baby and left. I just can't believe the nerve of some ppl using a choke collar of all things to control a dog!
