i really can't believe that some stooped so low- but i cant believe it was any of the members who were posting; of course, we havnt seen the mails, but agree that they should be forwarded.
i was young when i whelped my 1st litter, and by the time i was 12 i had already started my research on the breed and whelping, when only my granny had a yorkie who was not to be bred because I didnt know enough yet and knew that once the breeding began, i would do far more than my parents, and i was right- but being left in charge of a pregnant yorkie at 13? thats a bit much to expect her to handle.
so i'm sorry, but i dont think her age should really be a factor in telling people how wrong they were in their postings (i'm not refering to the threats- those are inexcusable). either her parents should have been more hands on, or they should not have allowed the girl to be bred.
i dont think telling someone with a pregnant And sick yorkie to get a cab is harsh- when my friends dog had unexpected pups and developed severe masitis, they didnt have a car, so called me who got my dad to drive them, but they told us if we couldnt not to worry, they would get a taxi... to me, that was normal concern, willing to do anything for mother and pups.
KAS- i'm so glad your girl was taken to the vet and is now getting the care she needs, but i understand why some where getting so blunt with you, in my 1st and reread of the posts, you didnt seem to be understanding the gravity of the situations you were describing. i'm not being mean or rude, but i think that if you took on the responsiblity of a whelp, you should have been more prepared and aware of any and all complications, and i hope you agree with that and will do more research before you breed again.
keep us updated after the vet visit tomorrow please! thoughts with you all for a good outcome!
