The fact is that the event already occured. ppl putting her down isn't going to change that and just because you tell her to spay her dog doesnt mean that she is so I would think the next best thing to do is hear her out and give the advice that you can so this doesn't happen again. I can understand that if what she wrote made you upset but theres a better way to express that then what yall have shown. she came here for advice not for a tongue lashing and if she didn't care then she wouldn't have bothered to write everyone asking for advice at all!! When I was 17 I was living on my own and saved a pregnent mini rat terrier from a bad situation. I knew around the time she was soppose to be due. I never had a expecting dog before I did all the research I could do, made her a whelping box and had a bed room all to her self. I left to go to the store to get groceries and I had a bad feeling in my gut and turned around to come back home. She had had two puppies one was not breathing and was starting to get cool. I suctioned her mouth and nose and tried to get some breath in her and it didn't work. the other survived and I was so upset and blamed my self for not being there or not knowing enough. I LOVED that dog and I loved her pup and it broke my heart !! now does that make me a bad person!! I makes me inexperienced, but not a bad person to where it would give a right for yall to say the horrible things you have to this person. Mistakes happened, yes I know that. and theres a way to get your point across than being plain out hatefull. I read her messages and a few ppl did give her advice that may help her for next time. the ones that were so upset with her didnt give any helpful advice at all! so what do you think your fussing is going to do? nothing. if this makes you upset then try to help her realize what next time she can watch out for so it wont happen agian. The way she was attacked makes me afraid to ask questions on here for the fear that I may to be in the line of fire. I would think she feels bad enough. I know I sure did. so can we all for the good of yorkies that we love help each other when the ppl need help the most or just tear them down so when they really do need some helpful advice they will be to afraid to ask for it? |
Slimem -- I can't in good conscious give advice on how to breed better next time if I truly believe they should NOT be breeding their dog at all. That is why so many are not offering advice on breeding, whelping, etc. If we do, that is giving tacit approval to their breeding. Not something I want any part of. It is not the inexperience as much as the way certain things do not seem to be viewed as wrong. The lack of preparation even after being a 14 year yorkie owner, suggests less interest in becoming knowlegable than should be the case. Even at 17 yr old, you were concerned about leaving a pregnant dog alone and turned around, came back, and probably saved the life of the other pup and maybe the mom too. That is the sort of dedication and compassion one looks for in a post before considering offering breeding suggestions. I know the printed word does not always convey true emotion but I can usually see "heart" when and if it is there.
The only cceptble advice that anyone can give the OP is to spay the mom.
