plus...how will people ever really learn what are good breeding practices vs bad if no comments are ever allowed ? I've personally learned so much from the breeders here and while I know sometimes things get heated - I do think the dogs best interests are always at the root of the posts...
but thanks for saying that YT should not be promoting breeders that specifically go for extra tiny....I really agree with that ....it sets an bad example to other breeders if they see someone listed as FEATURED who is intentionally breeding tinies... not to mention - the totally outrageous prices I just saw in that section. A new person could read that and think - holy cow... I can make 5 GRAND per puppy ?? 
I hope YT re-thinks the qualifications. If I were new here... it would be my understanding that if someone were "Featured" it would mean PROVEN ...and I just don't see how anyone with no history here could qualify for that.
Thanks for the replies on this thread...I didn't want to start anything but we all love yorkies and YT started because of that love for dogs...I know selling is important to some - but I'd hate to see it turn into another nextdaypets or puppyfind...There's already a ton of sites out there selling puppies...YT should be a safe place to buy. |
All it tells me is that this person lied on her application or request to admin. Maybe not intentionally but she witheld info. They don't need to re-think the qualifications, they just need to do a check on everyone before accepting their money and not taking them at their word. These days there is very little store in a person's word. Everything has to be checked out. At least by me. I have been scammed, hurt and mistreated so many times that I am automatically skeptical of most things.
