Let's clear this up, because even others can see that this is completely unproductive.

The sarcastic, rude, condescending, name-calling is all internet bullying in my book. I'm not here to fight anyone, and neither should anyone else. We are losing sight of what this forum was built for. This is a place to offer and receive advice on the one thing we all have in common: our dogs. We are all on the same team here--we're Yorkie lovers. I don't understand how those lines got so blurred from my post.

I mentioned in my original post that I don't need responses regarding my decision to use a doggie door. This was said because this is my very real situation at the moment. This is what I have to do. I don't know how to say it any other way. This post isn't even really about the doggie door. It's about having a dog that is hesitant to go outside to pee. Criticizing and harassing me about not wanting dog pee in the house is irrelevant.

I'm sorry that I am not meeting your standards for being a pet owner. There are a lot of ways to describe what being a pet owner means. We are all not perfect. We live and we learn. I understand some of you have miles of experience over me - that is the general reason why I come to seek advice. I am sorry if my request to hold back any anti-doggie door comments made you think that I was only looking to entertain positive comments. What I wasn't looking for, but somehow found here, was a couple of people aggressively exerting an opinion with intimidation. I have not played into your same game, and I won't. I will not be part of something that fosters an environment where women are torn down with slander, especially on the internet.

Honestly, I really am disappointed in the YT community at the moment, and will not return. I am sorry to the other readers and the admins that have wasted their time reading and following this string. I really hope that others will not be as discouraged as I am, and I hope the general attitude of this forum moves forward with more positivity than I have experienced.
