Well, Who'd of thunk it?? An actual post that EVERYBODY seems to agree on!!!
I think we're all here for as much information and knowledge we can get. Everone has different opinions, training methods, feeding ideas, etc. Just like life, things happen. What might work for some, will NOT work for others. Some have one Yorkie, some have more (I have 6!!). My life with six seems nuts to some, but to me, it seems totally normal. I babysit other Yorkies. They fit right in. At one point, I had 19 Yorkies for a week!! (Now that, even I, thought was nuts!!)
I have asked questions here and been amazed at some of the answers. Mostly, if I have asked a direct question, I get a direct answer. I have also chosen NOT to ask certain things. Or to tell of a decision I have made. When I decided to have my oldest female spayed, (she's 6) I did NOT come here and ask if anybody thought it was a good idea. She lost her last litter and THAT'S when I decided it was the only idea. I didn't feel the need for anyone to agree or disagree with me. Sometimes, common sense is the best answer to our questions. But that won't stop me from asking.
If we all would read the entire post before responding, would help a lot too. And to sit and think about it for a minute or two before responding. Don't just jump in and start voiceing your opinion about what the previous poster has just said would make sense to me. Sometimes, tho, it's just hard not to respond!! Like when someone is complaining about their new puppy "just piddled on the floor". Please!! Or when someone is saying that "the breeder said this or the breeder said that". Well, what the pup did at the breeders house is one thing. The pup has a whole new set of rules now. He/she has a new home, new invironment, heck, probably even a new pee-pad area! How's the pup supposed to just "know" what you want. Oh poo! I'm getting off topic here. My bad!!
Anyway, just keep posting. This is a good place to be.
