Do you ever offer advice to members in emergencies that are not breeding related?
If no one more experienced in an area is available at the time, I would not hesitate to advise in areas in which I have knowledge whether it is from experience or study...it may be...call the Emergency vet or it may be induce vomiting if they ate chocolate or human medicine, or it may be to refer them to the CPR thread, or it may be to tell them about vaccines or what I know about spaying and neutering and I am not a vet, and I am not a breeder, and I am do not show for hobby, but I love yorkshire terriers, I am well sudied, I have experience with four yorkies, I have owned and trained dogs all of my life and I will help anyone in need of help if I feel I can do it with more benefit than harm.
I was once on here when there were not as many experienced breeders here and none online at the moment and a member called in a panic about a mommy giving birth and trying to eat the puppies. I did a quit search on the internet, PM'd YorkieRose and stayed online until someone more experienced came. I mostly just posted vet info I found on the internet and urged her to call the emergency vet. It turned out the mother was just overly aggressive with the umbilical cord and the puppy was fine. I feel that I helped if for no other reason than that I was there with her.
I am sorry that you feel the way you do but I offered no bad advice in this thread. My advice and my citations were accurate.
I use the font changes to get people's attention and make it easier to read when I have a lot of information I am imparting.
