I totally understand were you are comming from... But what we all have to remember is that alot of people come here for education. This means there are people that will read these theads that are thinking of buying dogs, breeding dogs, finding breeders etc, If we can infuse these threads with as much good, ethical, information as possible then more people will be educated and prepared.

I am less likely to buy from a pet store if I have read where those puppies come from, I am less likely to go to a comercial breeder(usda) if I know how those dogs live. Or to bread my dog for money, the experince, or for fun if I know the risks and the consiquences involved. I love it when someone interjects to teach. Sometimes it gets a little heated but like others said, you can just not post in the heated ones and eventually they will go away.

As animal lovers and breed enthusiasts it would be irresponsible IMO to not say something when someone is making decisions that are less than ideal for our breed. After all that is why we are all here, because we love our yorkies.
