The reason you can see their posts to criticize is because they are ALWAYS posting and trying to help another YT member. They've saved countless new Yorkie parents from being conned into paying outrageous prices for sick babies, helped those who had already purchased sick babies by giving advice and sharing their experiences, and helped new owners learn to care for their new furchildren. They've helped with rescue and education. They've bettered the breed both with their own litters and by helping new breeders. They've become a family who supports one another outside of yorkie business. Here's how I see it... You may not like your inlaws, but if you go to Christmas and spill all the things they do that annoy you, then you're spoiling for a fight. I think this thread has shown just how generous the family of "Ultimate YT'ers" really are...  |
I kept thinking about this thread last night and came in this morning to find this post that says exactly what I had decided to say. I was going to highlight a few of the lines as emphasizing my feelings, but then I realized there was no need - the entire post says it all for me.
I love being here on YT, I love the friends I've made and the fun we have. But, my main purpose for being here will always be to learn and to help others learn. I found this site while searching for answers on yorkies and what I found was a place filled with love, devotion and respect for the breed. I feel sorry for those who don't recognize what YT offers and leave before they can discover it.
