| just have to vent... no offense to anyone!! Hey everyone... i hope I dont yelled at for saying this but its been bothering me, so i guess i will.. its soooo annoying when people keep asking over and over on this site about their yorkies' ears and if and when they will stand up and how they are concerned...etc... there is absolutely NOTHING to be concerned about unless the person decides to show it which most people dont do! why is it such a big deal, i really dont get it? i think yorkies with their ears down are just as cute if not CUTER than with their ears up! sorry dont wanna offend anyone... just had to get that out... |

| I think people actually make more reference to size than the ears up/down issue. I don't know, maybe it's because people think they can control that factor? Although I do remember someone a while back wanting tips on how to keep their yorkie small I like to be optimistic and think that people just talk about these things out of curiosity.. Just like how you don't know what sex or eye color your skinbaby would be. I think these people love their dogs just as much. |

| I know what you mean about the same ?'s being asked & sometimes it is about the ears. But I just don't open those threads, or click out if I do. There are new people joining this site almost daily,so they are curious & I quess most of us have in our minds that a yorkie's ears should always be standing & when they don't they get concerned. I know they can do a search, but that would take away from the interaction w/ the established members. I look at it as a way to join in the group & break the ice. |

| It does seem like sometimes the same questions get asked alot..but when you are new the search feature doesn't always get noticed or used. It is just part of being new and not being familiar with the site. It's funny about the ears thing though. My inlaws were here for a week and they loved both my babies, but they think my Cooper is way cuter because his ears stand up all the time. Carley's don't always stand up. I have only had her two weeks though, and she is only 6 months old. I need to take her and get her ears trimmed and I am sure they will stand. I personally don't care, that's why I haven't been in a rush to get them trimmed...but I think that it's funny my inlaws commented on it and equated which one is cuter based on it.

| I personally love the ears up. It's just a personal preference and I love the standard. I don't see anything wrong with people embracing the features that their dogs have, be it their ears, their tails, their coat, etc. I think learning comes from asking questions, and I've never seen why people get so bent out of shape when someone else talks about their yorkies ears being cute standing up or down. As long as you're happy with what you have, who cares about other peoples preferences!?

| yes but, we all get crazy now and then... we are all concerned about our little ones... if we knew , we wouldnt ask.....in the beginning we were all amatures.. ...we are here to learn and have fun,,some people just dont know and we ar here to help them.... if anything the top posters should be annoyed and bothered and we arent, cause we have all been there one time or another....its ok if they keep asking, we can never stop them, they just want to learn

| I hope anyone will feel free to ask any questions they like. As someone said, if you are new, you haven't even thought about using the search feature. I really enjoy the polls even if they have been done before. Seems like I learn something from all the posts, someone will have a new idea or a new opinion or even a new idea. There was a good poll the other day about size. I'd like to see it done with only replies as to adult dogs. I think that one asked what size you expected your dog to be when grown. I think that may have skewed it to the small side. My breeder told me Little Bit wouldn't be over 2 lbs. Well she's past 3 lbs at almost 6 months so if I had answered a month ago as to her adult size, I would have been so wrong. Since I haven't figured out how to do polls yet, I appreciate all the different ones. Also another good one, was about price. I found that one very interesting but I would also like to see one relating size & price. Rather we like it or not, it seems like the little ones do cost more. I also wouldn't mind seeing one as to how many adult dogs are ears up or down. I think we all want to know exactly how our pup will turn out, but it seems there is no alternative to waiting. I don't wait well. I also would like to know how many breed their dogs, show their dogs, etc. It is kind of hard to ask a question that doesn't interest me. I guess I just enjoy the site. Oh, by the way, no offense taken. |
