I do get concerned though when it reaches a level that long time members leave. I tend to think maybe they are seeing something I am just not seeing. I dont know maybe its because Ive been on here for several years I just get attached to the long time members even the ones I dont agree with. There are alot of personalites and opinions and we need to speak our mind and be gvood stewards of animals but we also have to find a happy medium for everyone I didnt mean to get so sappy but this is really how Ive been feeling lately
I've seen some things happening in the past couple of months that I never noticed before. A person, might be upset because of a remark made in a post, and normally would have let it go, but a third party became involved, and fed their hurt pride until they were enraged. Friendships were fused by a common hatred. Hopefully, the cancer has been cut out, and Yorkietalkers can start focusing on why they are here, and that's a common love of dogs. While I think it's important to have compassion for people, I feel compassion for the dogs, as well, and since they can't speak up, we need to speak for them; hopefully we can do it with compassion.
