| Where the Money Is!?? Okay folks, I've tried to be nice and I certainly support all rescues for all creatures, but...FU.R.R. is singling out our breed and OUR rescue and posting things on the Park Chevrolet website that are way out of line. Their latest was, "Everyone loves Yorkies, but it takes a special kindness to prepare once-feral kitties for life in a forever home, and F.U.R.R has stepped up to the plate to do just that. Please folks, go where the money isn't and help to make this a better planet for everyone"... . REALLY....REALLY??? Just goes to show how little some people know !! How many of you have read unbelievible threads on YT of injured, abandoned and seriously ill little Yorkies that without places like Yorkie Haven Rescue would have NO chance of life at all! We are NOT "the money", we are simply people who care and will fight diligently for these wonderful babies. Please help. If any of you have stories that need to be shared, please go to Park Chevrolet Charlott and tell your story. Let people know just what kind of people Yorkie and Yorkie Talk people are and VOTE! https://www.facebook.com/ParksChevro...a6efe1%22}#_=_

| I don't get it, I must be missing something but I don't understand how anyone who rescues any animal put down ANY group that rescues??? If you have the heart to rescue one creature surely you believe ALL are entitled to being rescued??? And certainly wouldn't want to take away from any creatures chance at a life!

| Love For Yorkies Isn't Enough! Everyone may love Yorkies but some don't treat them with any love and leave some pretty pathetic little tiny babies out there all alone and helpless - old, so ill, injured, rotten teeth, wet/cold/matted, abandoned to the roadside - you name it. If it weren't for YHR, many a pitiful little Yorkie would be dead - or worse - living but pretty much on its own until it does alone and miserable. I'll bet those little guys in such trouble don't feel very loved! Plus, I've read so many, many threads where YHR is doing so much to help our own members in situations with their dogs and helping other situations where they hear of an animal in trouble. It takes so much love, patience, fortitude, guts, medical knowledge, mental anguish, time, money and mercy to do what they do every single day. I'm saying this all pretty badly but it makes me pretty mad to hear that some think all Yorkies all have life so great. If we really love this breed - and we do - keep voting and begging for votes no matter what. Thank God for Yorkie Haven Rescue! Let's vote them into that prize!

| I have to agree, how can a rescue try to discredit another rescue? Seems their energy would be better spent doing something else and be happy they are giving YHR a run for 1st place. As much as I want YHR to win 1st place I think any place would be a welcome donation. This post brought to you by a Yorkie owner and a rescued cat owner.

I don't have FaceBook nor will I sign up for it, I don't do sites like that or My Space or Twitter either, too many things can happen, so I can't see what they have said, but this just nonsense.

| The amazing part if that the women that are doing the YHR bashing are the BOARD MEMBERS OF F.U.R.R.! I just cannot believe what I read yesterday before it was pulled off the Park Chevy wall. I love all animals and it breaks my heart to see any suffer. Other rescues have posted pictures on the wall and I always try to say a kind work and wish them well.

| EXCUSE ME ? Giving is a personal choice. We are all bias and look at things with our own world view. It is sad that truly kind people who want to help animals, would say another charity, is not as worthy donation as theirs. I give to the Cancer Society, Saint Judes and YHR , all are worthy. Some one else may give to the March of Dimes and the Kidney Foundation. ALL GIVING IS GOOD. I am sure F.U.R.R. is a good charity, but some of their speakers have used poor judgment in soliciting votes, shame on them. I am proud of Yorkie Haven Rescue and the wonderful work they do. Everyone please Vote.

| At the least - the people posting negative comments are acting in a very immature manner. Sounds like sour grapes to me. Anyway, I thought all rescues were suppose to support each other, especially in public?

| I do understand what you meant..but when I read your post, it seemed you were criticizing people that have been upset about the way some (well,one) organization was posting such negative things. Sorry if I misunderstood your intent. We are all passionate about rescue but I want to see things continue on a positive note, win or lose.
