"I don't care if you are poor, disabled, a novice yorkie owner, or novice yorkie breeder but when you post something that demonstrates such a basic lack of common sense on a site like this, well, to be honest, you are asking for it. to the extent that you then provide a bunch of additional ammunition for those that do have strong opinions here, well you should not be surprised at the response"...your right..a lot of people would have thought hey separate them..but at times where you are upset and cant think clearly maybe a little help isnt so bad...and i never saw where the op on that thread refused to separate them..its very traumatic when you have two dogs you love to pieces get in a ugly fight.

these words in bold..is what people with education and advice have use to describe their "attack" kind of fits really..ammunition/attack.. and many times it goes past strong opinions

I've noticed a trend also. It is definitely a pack mentality. and the more the OP tries to explain themselves the worse it gets and if anyone else jumps in they are attacked also.

She had no idea that in revealing her personal disbility and financial status it would be turned against her.

The thread was no longer about the dog, she was being attacked personally, and so were the people defending her.

When I read some of those posts I was appalled and I didn't even see the deleted ones. It sickened me all day.

I debated long time over whether or not I should start this thread. Then decided that these people needed to be revealed. I used to have respect for them, but now I see I was overlooking what they are doing because I was afraid to speak out.

"I felt like a kid watching bullies pick on the disabled kid and being afraid of stepping in and I really was ashamed that I did not do more to help her instead of sitting on the sidelines." A LOT OF YT MEMBERS FEEL THIS WAY

"Now in regard to this person's physical challenges.....Caring, breeding and raising puppies is a full time job. One has to be on "duty" 24 hours a day. It requires physical strength and stamina to do a good job for the welfare of the dogs. In my opinion that was also a point of contention and added fuel to the fire. Some felt that this person, with whatever their physical challange is, was not in the position of properly caring for these dogs. She'd already been a position where pups had been killed, due to this persons lack of prepardeness and education." i could have missed it but she never stated what her disabilities were..so to ASSUME she couldnt keep up with the puppies can be incorrect...honestly im raising 2 litters, 2 toddlers, a husband, a household, and my day to day things..and its not that hard..


"moderator of that thread flat out said she didn't see anything wrong with what anyone said and that they were just "passionate and had strong opinions." You'd have to be blind (in my opinion) to not see anything wrong with what was said at times!" there are several things on that post that i cant believe havent been deleted and i wont name, names but i cant believe some people havent been suspended for their comments others have been suspended for less...but seems they same ones are allowed to comment in anyway they choose with out consequences

this is so so so true : What is most sad to me is the people who are disrespectful say they are defending the dogs and the breed but you can have all the good intentions in the world and all the yorkie knowledge in the world and if you have the people skills of a WALL the breed will suffer because PEOPLE are in charge of the breed.

another good quote : "Then to hurl personal insults on top of that is deplorable. It doesn't help YT become the site it was intended to be at all and hopefully the moderators and admin will wake up to this problem"

"bring change to YT" i second that

again these same people are brought up again..apparently they are a problem for a lot of yt memebers
"this handful of people (the squeaky wheels that are getting the grease)"

Why not? its done for others on here "You are frustrated because I suppose you want something to happen to a person who voiced their opinion"

no one said they were loosing sleep...she actually said she slept well
"Losing sleep over something online is simply unhealthy."

"Don't you see that you are also being intolerant? seriously You are doing just what you are complaining about" apparently the other side needs a venting section as well..someone needs to start standing up and letting people know when there is a problem that is not in agreement with certain individuals..when in actuality those individuals are the problem

so true: If someone asks the question they are thinking about their dogs!

The thread was closed and I seriously don't "get" why people want to keep going at it. "well if you arent part of the solution your part of the problem" i love this quote..one of my husbands actually

no its not a witch hunt.. dont be so dramatic

As I said, in the first couple of pages of the post, advice was given in a a respectful, informative manner. so when advise is not heeded it gives people the right to turn nasty?

on this nothing else needs to be said she said it all "nominate the nicest YT member" I think maybe a handful of people commented but for the most part it wasn't commented on! Which is seriously sad to me. The negative and attacking threads are most popular and the positive and uplifting threads die off. And interestingly enough none of the squeaky wheels did not comment in that thread at all."
