I won't get on my soapbox against calling people names like "dumb" and "stupid" and "idiotic" because the adults here know that they are setting an example for the younger members and they will behave as they feel is appropriate. I have been down that road as a member already pointed out.
Natalie, I am not trying to defend her, but could it be that the girl with the new puppy was on her way home after having "just picked it up" and maybe stopped at the mall to buy the carrier and some other things for the puppy? I just believe in giving people I do not know the benefit of the doubt. She sounds like she was trying to be nice but was maybe a little overwhelmed by the attention and she didn't let anyone else hold the puppy, right?
I am not concerned about the use of the term"teacup yorkie" because it is a common description of the extreme tinies, no matter how much we may not like it.
I am not a huge Paris Hilton fan, but she has owned her little dog Tinkerbell for some time now and she is always with her. I do not think that Paris treats her like a fashion accessory. If she did, she wouldn't always have her. She would only have her when it was convenient for her. I choose to believe that she loves that dog like we love our babies and that she is setting a good example by the way she takes such good care of her. She has not "thrown this puppy aside like last year's coach purse" and I hope she never will.
I also saw the picture of Whitney Houston and her yorkie too and he was a bigger yorkie, definitely not a tiny so she didn't get rid of him because he no longer fit in her pocket.
I guess I just don't like the negative energy in this thread and wanted to show the other, hopefully, more positive side. I don't like to see puppies abused either but I don't think we have any evidence of abuse in this case.
I think Natalie did the right thing by referring her here to YT and I hope she takes the advice and becomes a member, but I hope she never reads this thread.
