I wonder how anyone could read a newspaper article, look at a website & conclude such negatives about a person they have never met, been a customer of, spoken to or even been an aquaintance to?? Is it fair or ethical to make hurtful & damaging statements about a person & her business without any firsthand knowlege?
This is what some have done in this situation and I believe it is not only wrong but also ridiculous! To look at a newspaper story that was meant to celebrate something wonderful for the Oliver's and their town & choose to pick apart the article, pick apart her website/dogs, & then finishing the job by picking apart Renotta & her integrity on an open forum IS defamation...IMO!
I actually do know Renotta, and know that her dogs are healthy, well cared for & beautiful too! She takes pride in her yorkies & it shows......she should be happy about the recognition she's gotten!
My reason for writing this is only in hopes that some of you would think before you decide to drag someone thru the mud......I am sure you would expect the same consideration were the tables turned. And I agree with Princessyorkies....different breeders have different opinions,different practices,different experiences......if you have questions, why dont you talk with Renotta directly to get some facts. As far as opinions go, I think that Yorkiemom1970 shared her opinion & experience in a helpful way....which is what I thought Yorkietalk is supposed to be! Of course people will have different thoughts & opinions & certainly not always agree with one another but this can't this be done in a grown-up way? |
