1/5
Sarah came over for a meet and greet. She never voiced any concern. We have 3 small dogs. One of the little Chihuahuas, a male, is an alpha male and protects me. Yes he barked and growled the entire time. Yes I had to hold him the whole time and yes he did lunge at Sarah while she sat on the couch. I did let her know he is missing half his teeth and he is only 10lbs. Rather than discuss her concerns with me at that time, and I could have advised her he has never bitten anyone, and is a different dog when I am not there. Instead Sarah stated she wanted to come back with her other sitter so that the dogs can see her again and the other sitter can meet us all. A few days later, I get a text stating that due to my aggressive dog she will not sit for us. She is scared my small dog might bite her. I find it very unprofessional and weak that she didn't have the courage to voice he concern or just say she was not interested to my face. That is the whole point of the meet and greet. If she is scared of a 10 lb Chihuahua missing most of his teeth, I wonder how she acts with other dogs?
