What we have just witnessed is not a new occurence on this forum. I have seen it before.....I was even on the receiving end of such an attack. I never even got to defend myself....because I was immediately placed on suspension. At first I said the heck with this forum. Then I thought NO why would I let some really rude and stupid people run me off. I am older than dirt.....so the insults kinda bounced off me!!
Even after this young lady explained herself re: her idenity...the attacks continued. It is absurd! I have a 16 year old son and he is NEVER allowed to reveal his true idenity on the internet on a forum such as this. NEVER!! If his father or myself discover he has broken the rules....then his internet access is denied. WHO else but a teenager would put 90210 as a zipcode!! It's probably the most famous zipcode in the world!! I'm sure this child is in a "pickle".....she must obey her parents. But she may be really worried about her dog. For Gosh sakes.....we are all sitting at a computer keyboard.....it is realy gutsey of some of you to make such judgements. Can't you just except the fact she asked for HELP? What the heck does it matter is it's a SCAM or not. What does it matter? You profess to love the Yorkie....and just maybe there's a Yorkie in need. Until you KNOW for a fact IMO it is inhumane for someone sitting a a mere keyboard to make that judgement call. I only hope this dog does not die...because we ran her away. Heck maybe she has parents who are not willing to help her....afterall didn't I just read about someone's HUSBAND on here that does not love his dogs.....didn't I. IMO....some of you should be ashamed of yourselves.
I think you need to remember "do unto others as you would have them to do unto YOU!"
Just my humble opinion. |
I think that some of us who
profess to be yorkie lovers tend to become a little disturbed when we read something like this. I made my apology publicly to her and to everyone ealier today.

It does not change the fact that I was upset for this little dog. I could care less about the zip code thing. I was upset for the yorkie. I believe that some people shouldn't have pets in the first place. They purchase them and when something goes wrong they wait until the last minute to do something about it. This was upsetting to me. I was out of line in a few things I said and I let my emotions speak for me. Does this make me judgemental? I think it makes me human. I became emotional, I commented on what I read, and I regretted it in the long run. Not because of what you think or anyone else thinks, but because I realized that I could have handled it differently. I too hope this little dog doesnt die and I was upset that someone would let it get to this point before asking for help. I admit that I was wrong in my wording but I also feel at the same time that maybe the owner needed an eye opener. My apology to her and to everyone still stands but my feelings are the same. I have learned that I must bite my tongue in certain situations. I am glad she asked for help. But I felt this was the wrong place to be asking in a situation as advanced as hers. I am not ashamed of myself for coming un-glued about a yorkie who at 20+ months old lost so much weight and a drive to a vet clinic wasn't made lots sooner. I am ashamed at the wording I used to state that fact. Your statement "do unto others as you would have them do unto YOU" is very true. I'm sure if I had posted something like this that alot of you would wonder what in the heck was wrong with me. I can only hope that LittleMissChloe will understand where I was coming from in time and that I am very concerned over these little dogs in general. I've been in a really bad emotional state for a couple weeks in my own personal life concerning my own yorkie and I let my emotions speak for me on this thread and I have learned a valuable lesson. Thanks,
