So he plunked down a bunch of his own money and created a place where Yorkie owners could gather and share that information for free.
That was in 2004, I believe. Now, six years, nearly 3 million posts and multiple server expansions later, Dan's still here but with a team of helpers who go by the name admin. Yoda's still here, and he has a brother named Winkie. Best of all YT is still here and free (donations accepted  ) with a searchable database so anyone who wants to learn about Yorkies can find it.
That's my understanding, anyway. |
Awesome thread. I wondered about that too. Read a bit on the new Yorkshire Terrier magazine, but not details.
Happy New Year everyone !!!
