I just typed in another thread that although I knew puppymills were a bad thing I had no idea just how bad they really were until seeing a video on Yorkie Talk. I had been a member here for a long time but still it did not sink in just how cruel people could be. When I saw the poor dogs matted so bad they could not walk, that finally let it all sink in. Some people are just plain evil.
I don't think you were too harsh. Maybe a lead-in to let her know you understand most don't realize how bad puppymills are would have helped. But since she sent a nice reply, she must have learned and not taken any offense. So -- good job!
Just know that everyone you talk with will not understand the horrors your little one has encountered. But letting them know is a good thing. |
