This is a sort of In Appreciation of Yorkie Talk post. Please everyone, feel free to chime in your stories of "Without Yorkie Talk, I woudn't have known..." I know many of our babies, especially mine, are so much better off because their owners read Yorkie Talk. :-) I don't know if this kind of thread has been done before, but here goes anyways...

Without YT, I wouldn't have known...
1. That most of the grocery store kibble brands (like Iams) are bad.
2. What the good kibble brands are, and that I could get free samples of them sent to me (yay!)
3. That Hartz shampoo isn't good for yorkies, and that I could get free samples of other good shampoos like MinkSheen!
4. That kennel cough may not sound so much like a cough - it sounds more like a throat clearing followed by gagging.
5. That belly bands exist.
6. That some people feed their dogs raw meat on purpose! :-)
7. That rawhide is BAD, and the joys of safe and delicious Bullysticks (and what bullysticks are, which is gross! lol)
8. What human foods are safe, and what human foods are unsafe.

I'm sure there are lots more, because I have learned sooooo much here, and I am so thankful, but these are the ones that come to the top of my head right now. Maybe I'll add some more later. :-)

Thank you Yorkie Talk members! Nikko really appreciates all your advice, even more than me I'm sure.
