What about people that are deaf? Their speech isn't taken away they use sign language and dogs communicate in other forms other than barking. I see this woman as doing everything she can to train her yorkie and it's not working. She seems to love her yorkie and why would she give it away? If it were for her convenience and not this type of scenerio I would agree with you. Please don't take this wrong as it's not meant to be that way. What about dogs that become blind? Their other senses become stronger. What about dogs that become deaf? Same thing their other senses are enhightened and become stronger. Same as people in those same scenerios.
She loves her dog and doesn't want to give the yorkie away and it wouldn't be an option for me either.
Just another way of looking at it
