So exactly why are you choosing this platform to defend someone that you have not even rendered an opinion on. (statement not a question). Not only that but you are asking Mod or Admin to dive in to personal P.M.'S? Seriously, this is ludicrous, to tell a Mod or Admin to do so to defend yourself against an unknown perceived threat is silly and very much over the line.
Remember this site is owned and operated by Admin (gratefully) because he wants to, not because he has to and he does so always in an unbiased way, as do the mods, their restraint is amazing. It is my belief that most members wether Donators, Yackers, Admin or Mods are all here because of our genuine love for the breed. On YT it is all about the YORKIES and not about personal feelings, and I am sure there are many times that there is dialogue posted that Mods and Admin don't agree with but they adhere to the rules and guidelines that allow each of us to have a voice so that others may be educated, on the left and the right, to ultimately select the road that leads them to not just own a Yorkie but to further the cause for the ethical breeding and treatment of all Yorkies and animals.
Nicole, all any of us want is to give you the tools to help you do what is right for the pup you select and the breed as a whole, and to enlighten you so that you can also become educated to the "Yorkie Cause" (and all pups...because if just one person is spared the pain that my pup and my family has been enduring the last 7 years, its worth it for me; If one person joins in to refuse to support puppymills, BROKERS and petshops...its worth it to me....
Good Luck Nicole I hope you do the right thing for you and your pup! |
Very well said....and it really does not matter where or from whom you get your puppy from....it is your choice to make.....I have had BYB Yorkies that lived to be 15 yrs old and also had a Yorkie who came from half way around the world from one of the best known show breeders kennels around Italy....its all a crap shoot anymore.....I am just saying there are no guarantee's on health....................anything can happen.....its what the breeder does after it happens is what sets the reputation of the breeder. Within the last 1.5 years I have lost 3 yorkies to unusual circumstances....Scarlett at 8 yrs of age on 2/2/10 to Thrombocytopenia, she came from an excellent show breeder in Oregon..she was never sick a day in her life....she died within 48 hrs of onset..then we lost Rhett 65 days after Scarlett, he did have a Collapsed Trachea, but that is not what he died from, he clearly died of a broken heart due to the loss of his sister....he was 7 yrs old.......then in August 2011 we lost Isabella to GME at the age of 17 months...she came from a very well known European breeder in Italy...tons of champions in her lines....and no known genetic problems....I am about to get my new Yorkie boy...............scared??? heck yes I am scared.....have I done research.....oh yea....but all the research in the world can't guarantee nothing will happen....
Nicole I wish you the best of luck in finding the perfect Yorkie for you.
