From my perspective, and this is only my thoughts. Some people will believe almost anything they are told...until someone else enlightens them.
That is why forums like YT are so important. There are a lot of unscrupulous people out there that can talk the feathers off of a bird. And the people who are trusting, end up getting an animal that is going to cost them a lot more in medical bills, than it would have cost them to get a beautiful, healthy, long lived baby from a reputable breeder. But they don't know that. It is only lately that the "Horror of Puppy Mills" has gotten nation wide attention. And people are starting to notice.. so the word is getting out. We need to do everything we can to educate people. And it is happening. Just not as fast as we would all like it to.
We have new members almost everyday. Some who have bought from breeders, and some who bought from pet stores, but the thing is... they all love their babies just like we do ours. And now they are on YT.. where they can learn how to take care of them... and learn why to not buy another one from pet stores. With Patience, Love, Information & Understanding, we are slowly changing things and making this a better place to share information and educate people..
And that is what we are all about here.. the betterment of Yorkies and their owners.
