Ladies, this is nonsense. I honestly don't think this is a serious question, nor poster for that matter. For someone to claim they are an experienced breeder, and then to ask questions like this regarding age, and previous ones like genetics is bogus to me. The mere fact that this is causing us to argue I think is the real objective.
We all have our experience with dogs, and have offered multiple breeder findings, personal experiences, etc as proof, yet we get this text book length excuse from the OP as to why it isn't good enough. Anyone else bull*hit alarm going off? Don't fall into the trap of appeasing the OP further and fueling the fire. If you look at previous posts, this same type of drama seemed to happen over I believe it was something as petty as Parti Genetics.
To the OP, you seem to have an answer to all of our suggestions. If you know it all, and that's what it seems from the eye gouging length of your responses, then what's the point of asking the question in the first place? You seem to have another agenda besides just asking these simple easily googled answered questions. Maybe that agenda is making us all get our eyes test after being subjected to an overly repetitive, and subjective and condescending explanation to everything we post.
Like I said fellow YT'ers. Don't appease this OP and thread any longer by arguing. It, like this thread, seems to be pointless. |
If you are going to malign me, get your facts straight.
And please, shall we be adults and keep the personal attacks to a minimum?
I NEVER asked ANYTHING about parti coats. I asked what the genetic make up of the "born gold" yorkies was, as, IF you know your genetics, there are several "yellow" genes.
I wanted to know where the born golds got their color, as opposed to the sables, and I was answered.. AFTER being attacked for DARING to ask a question that had NOT been answered. I say again,, I could be wrong, but NONE of the threads I read on this forum and NONE of the wensites I visited said ANYTHING about ee being the cause of the born gold Yorkie.
So if there was petty drama over me asking where did the born gold yorkies came from, it was NOT from me.
And again with the agenda nonsense?
You don't like the length of my posts, don't read them, simple as that. Why should I have to explain that it is considered proper netiquette where I typically roam to multi quote when answering several people, so as not to flood the forum.
And why is having a lot to say on a subject such a crime? Why are some of you so threatened by a well thought out response? Because I don't give pithy little jabs and stand back, but explain my position, and then... oh horrors, back what I say by FACTUAL proof, and not clouded opinion.
I am even willing to CHANGE my opinion, and at the same time, am not expecting anyont to change theirs, and I have the nerve to be respectful of others opinions even if I disagree. I am such the troll, aren't I?
The POINT of asking the question was there in my first post.. If you weren't so kindly refraining from attacking me because I posted something you didn't like again, perhaps you would have seen it.
I have heard reasons that people give for not sending the puppy home until 12 weeks, and to be really honest, the only one that makes sense is that toys have a greater chance of hypoglycemic episodes until about 16 weeks, give or take
I was looking for other health related reasons, because NONE of the posts I found said anything about the HEALTH related reasons EXCEPT for hypoglycemic episodes. All of them touted socialization and behavioral aspects that didn't make sense to me. And when I did further research still didn't make sense. Especially considering of the 48 COE chihuahua breeder sites I looked at.. only EIGHT mentioned anything about age, and only 3 or 5... I admit to not remembering, specifically said they would not release puppies before 12 weeks.
And as the chihuahua is the breed closest to the yorkie in size, and have many of the same health issues regarding size, they were the best comparison to me.
And no, the answers were NOT easily googled. NO WHERE did I see the gold gene was ee when I searched for that answer. Not even here, And no where did I see any other health reason given other than hypoglycemia. The truth is, if you DON'T have an answer, then don't answer. However, seveal people DID give answers that were health reasons. THEY were helpful. THEY answered the question, and they did it without being angry, abrasive, or attacking me.
Also, if you're going to call me condescending, perhaps you should see to the tone of your own post, and some posts by others. I have been sneered at, had my words twisted, talked down to, and personally attacked by members of this site. While I have done my best to remain polite, and ANSWER the accusations leveled at me.
And then I am being accused of being condescending?
