[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Has anyone said dogs that don't shed?  I was driving through a community last week and say people walking Poodles, Golden Noodles, Giant Schnauzers, Bichons, Airedales, and the like.  I think they buy them because they don't want to deal with dog hair, I mean, who does?  But to spend 500-1000 or more on a dog?  Definitely an unintentional status symbol.  [/quote]

Actually, I think it's the opposite. Having a dog that doesn't shed it totally middle class, well probably upper middle class. But, the truly rich, the blue bloods don't CARE if their dogs shed or get mud on the rugs and sofa.  That is an unintentional status symbol.  They can pay to get it all cleaned and that is one of the reasons they have a full time housekeeper.  Plus, that is one of the reasons slip covered were originally invented, so dirty, sandy dogs and kids wouldn't ruin the sofas and chairs.  You just got the slipcover cleaned or had a new one made.  Original well made sofas didn't wear out.  Pottery Barn was the first mass-retailer to make slip covered sofas for the masses because they realized this was an "unintentional" status symbol.[/quote]

Yes!  Are you the transfer station decal poster?[/quote]
