    Bil-Jac funny (aDork)

    I was in PetSmart the other day (sans Misha), looking at bags of Blue and had called my mom to figure out if we got the 15 or 30 lb bags. A guy wearing a Bil-Jac apron comes around the corner and asks, "What kind of dog do you have?"

    "A Great Pyrenees mix."

    Then he asks, " Have you ever heard that that's a thing called a large breed?"

    I'm a little surprised by this question, so I keep my sarcasm to myself and simply say, "Yes."

    His next question, "Have you ever heard of Bil-Jac?"

    Again, I think to the forum, but decide to play it nice, "I've heard about it, but I don't really remember what I've heard."

    Then, the pitch, "Well, you should try Bil-Jac, it's a good food." Then he walked off.

     I would've said very sarcastically: Yes, I know hes large, I do own him you know?

     At least that's less pushy than some of the reps around here.

    I will say, though, that I rarely get harassed by Nutro, etc reps. But the Natural Balance lady is pushyIndifferent  I do not mind Natural Balance in the least, but if I walk with purpose to the TOTW area and grab a bag without hesitation, do I really need a long spiel and samples shoved into my pocket?

    lol - I was at Petco and the Nutro Rep was harrassing a customer the other day who was ALREADY BUYING HER PRODUCT - went to the store and had it in hand before she accosted him.  What the heck, lady?  Leave her alone, she doesn't need your song and dance!  Duh!

    Meanwhile, as I mentioned in another thread, I had the Bil-Jac rep go on and on about how good corn is for dogs (since it's their second or third ingredient, I forget).  When I asked about the BHA, he didn't know what it was. He wasn't even good looking enough for me to pat his head with a "there, there, pretty one..." as has been suggested in response to stupidity.
