To the OP, you seemed upset that people were making judgments on your friend, yet you didn't understand why. My post was merely meant to explain to you what the more trained eyes were picking up on so that you would understand. In addition, I mentioned things that your friend had obviously not considered as well as how she should continue to educate herself on breeding if she plans to continue, as you stated she does.
I think that many of the things she did so far WERE responsible--taking time off to stay with the pups, for example--other, maybe not so much. There is always rooom for improvement, but how would anyone ever know if the advice was not offered and you were not given a different perspective?
Obviously I have greatly offended you as you have been reduced to quite rudely insulting me. For that I apologize....but, I can assure you, I've been called worse.  I think that everyone here truly has concern over the best interest of your friend's little one FIRST, and yours and her feelings just come second. (Based of the information that you have given, in my honest opinion, it would be in the best interest of the dogs if the female were not bred again.) Sorry. But it is a Yorkie forum...that's the way it's suppose to be. |
Misty,
Agreed, we are all passionate about the care of the yorkie world and most all of us allow our passion get in the way of being rational. I know I've done that more often than not. There have been times I've wanted to put my hand through the screen and grab someone around the throat.
I remember one night such as that, someone came on here (newbie) asking about breeding their dogs as it was happening, or soon to happen, couldn't figure out how to get them to breed. Some of us were quietely explaining the ramifications of breeding without doing all the proper preliminary work, etc., we were starting to make headway. Someone else came on ranting, the original poster, shut down and signed off, never came back on. During this whole typing conversation I was so angry and it was difficult to control my temper.
