| Really??? Hmmmm, you didn't seem to have too many concerns when you yourself were recently trying to take in that little rescue baby girl - even though you didn't have the 300.00 to "bail her out"... and readily accepted the 100.00 donation I - and other amounts that others - gave towards you bringing this little one into your world...... regardless of the fact that NONE of us had a clue what her physical, emotional or medical needs may have been..... or the expenses that may have been incurred in caring for her... Did I question your ability to care for her?? Did anyone?? I don't think so.... the fact that you were willing to give her love was enough for me and obviously others, to come to your aid in assisting with her adoption. I still am so sorry that it didn't work out for you.... but hope that she did find a loving forever home with the woman who purchased her....

| Dena, I am not ridiculing, or lashing out at you. I'm a concerned person. And yes, I am expressing how I feel. Y'know, I read posts here several times daily. I read about these wonderful people who describe in detail the daily events of their loved furbabies. In fact, I feel like I know many of them! Why don't I read posts like that about your other dogs? Endearing sweet posts telling me how much you're enjoying them daily? I did read of Mia's aggressive/protectiveness....that was a little concerning. Even though she's tiny, an accident could happen. What I'm reading from you is this sort of frantic search. Three or more dogs in a short time that you want to buy. All of them tiny. It sounds like 'collecting'. They just require so much attention and love. I'm not saying you can't give it, but I'm just not reading it into what you post about the dogs you already own. You have a gift with words. Those words can evoke sympathy and empathy. I am moved by words when it comes to dogs. Something myself, and everyone else who uses the Internet needs to be cautious about. Enjoy your dogs Dena, and I wish you the best. I look forward to hearing about Mia and Gracie and Cecelia too. Joy

The constant pictures, videos, written posts..... I can tell you that those things in no way can "measure" the love one has for thier animals... but it certainly does show a dedication I think... It feels like you're just pulling things out of the air to justify your "concerns".... and that's okay.... your views are your own... and that's okay too.... As far as a "frantic search"??? lol - I think you're mistaking that for sheer excitement..... but "to each her own"...

| I am not going to bicker with you or anyone else.... NONE of this has ANYTHING to do with ANYTHING.... Every single comment you just made about me has been discussed OVER and OVER again in many different threads..... validated or disputed.... You want to condemn others when your own situation could use some looking over.... I owe you nothing in response.... enough of this silliness!!! (BTW, your welcome.... for trying to help you bring that little girl home!)

| The owner has emailed me this morning saying she would honor our wishes. So now we will begin working out the details on this girl. I do appreciate Dena for being very upfront with me once this situation came to surface last night. Thanks everyone, I will update you as soon as we work things out. Deana Prestigeous |

| Well I was concerned when Dena posted the pm from admin saying she couldnt solicite for donations but yet people were moved to donate to her anyway. I voiced those concerns then. I dont begrudge Denas right to have a new yorkie as I am sure she is really devestated after her loss of her sweet Natalie. I do however feel sorry for the people on here that feel taken by her or that she is not considering the concerns of others. I hope everything works out for all concerned

| I am not taking any sides because I view myself as neutral, but I do feel the need to post something b/c that female in NY that we tried to rescue has been brought up. I found an ad on craig's list and posted it here on YT. The man wanted $300 for her and listed her as 'good for breeding' - a few members spoke with the 'young man' that had her and his stories were all over the place. I as well as others thought she was 'found' by this man trying to sell her. I was frantic, I wanted to save her, but I myself didn't have the entire $300, nor was I 'really' near his area to go and get her. So, myself and another YT member started to find ways to get her out of there. Coming up with the $ was easier than I thought, b/c we had a couple people 'add to the pot' - including Dena (Thank you again). So now I needed someone close enough to go and get her and to either keep her or foster her. That's where mybabyboymax came in. She was PERFECT! She said she would get her from him as soon as she could and that she could foster her (since we had raise the $, she felt it was up to us who she went to) or she said she would also have no problem opening up her home to be her forever Mommy. My mind was made up: I felt if mybabyboymax was able to meet this 'man' and get her away from him and if she was willing to take her into her home for fostering, than by all means I thought she should keep her (Thank you for trying). I believe that ALL parties involved whether through $, phone calls, fostering and keeping were ALL equal in trying to save this little girl. I THANK YOU ALL for trying, and I still continue to pray she has found a loving home. I hope this post will settle any hard feeling being expressed in this matter, I would really hate to put a 'bad taste' on something that was REALLY SO GOOD. Thank you again to everyone, NEXT TIME |

It was really great that so many people on YT got together and tried to save her. I agree that all of us had a great part in trying and thats why I was confused when it was made to seem like I was asking members on YT to basically purchase my next furbaby My heart ached for this little girl and like you and many of the YT members here we really wanted her to be in a good home. Just got to hope shes in her new home getting the love she deserves.

There were a handful of WONDERFUL YT MEMBERS that offered to help or were asked if they could and would help, WE ALL made it possible to save her, but unfortunately it just wasn't meant to be. | |

| Wow, what a sticky situation. Deana I'm glad you found out that your contract was being breeched. Dena, as painful as it might be for you if you don't get this puppy your did the right thing by letting Dena know what information she deserved. All the opinions that are being expressed really are neither here nor there with this situation. It is up to Dena at this point to decide what will happen with her baby, it is her right and responsiblity as the breeder with this little one. In reality the person who was going to sell the dog is the one who should be ridiculed and persecuted by the crowd.
