I feel the same with Yorkies. They're GOING to be sneaky & they can be hard to watch even when we're right with them - our attention gets diverted - the phone rings - all sorts of things go on in LIFE but to say someone shouldn't have a dog unless they were some kind of superman seems a little harsh.

Don't get me wrong - I mean NO OFFENSE !! I really don't .but once I was sitting right in my yard when Cheri was a baby - one second she was there and boom - she was gone - the hole she found was 1/4 the size of her body - I never dreamed she'd fit thru it and I COULD have lost her ...all I kept thinking about is what IF a dog was on the other side - what if they had no fence ?? I broke down my fence getting into my neighbors yard but it happened in a split second and could have been a tragedy - and I was RIGHT THERE when it happened.

Now - I DO agree there are some people I see that I wish only had stuffed toys - but that's a whole nother conversation LOL

Very well put, Villette!! Agree totally!!!
