You have my sympathies. She probably didn’t realize how extremely offensive that was, but then, people who get into this pet mania never do seem to realize that their actual children might find it offensive to be made equal to or even replaced by a dog.
To be fair, she has never tried to call me since that day, and I have paid for her cell phone since 2003 so I know that she has service.
It’s ok, I have great dogs and a new puppy who is perfect and housebroken in 2 days. She’s a miracle.
