She's just a mixed breed and not friendly at all with strangers!

We were returning from a trip to visit family in Texas and had stopped at a truck stop gas station outside of Dallas. I was walking two of our Maltese. We traveled in our motorhome with four Maltese and our Holly - who is now two years old and 65-70 pounds.

As I was pottying the Maltese, a van came rolling up with two ragged young men. One of them asked me if I wanted to buy a home entertainment center. When I said "No, thanks", he pressed the issue and said. "Come on, we have one left over from our job and will make you a good price!"

They were probably either trying to fence stolen goods or they wanted to rob me if I took out cash to buy their product.

As they were trying to press me, Judy came walking up with Holly! One of the guys said, "Man, that's a big dog! What kind is it?" Judy was smart enough to reply. "She's just a mixed breed and not friendly at all with strangers!" The spokesman for the pair said, "Well, have a good day, Maam!" and drove off.

They are lucky that they did, Holly would have licked them to death!
