What a great thread! Villette, I have to agree, that you are one of the big reasons YT is so great! You can always be counted on for a kind word, and do have a way of making everyone feel like they belong.
Yorkietalk is the first and only discussion board I have ever been a member of. It is nice to have a place to obsess over Ginger, and to be a part of a community that truly cares about each other and especially about each others furbabies.
I've met some great people through YT who live in my area, but who I never would have met otherwise! I've gotten excellent advice, and found others who would happily discuss the tiniest details about grooming, or feeding, or otherwise caring for these wonderful little dogs.
I enjoy the pictures and funny stories, and become emotionally involved in both the tragedies and happy endings. If you had told me this was possible on a message board prior to my stumbling across YT, I would have said that you were "nuts".
Well, maybe I'm the one who's "nuts" (for yt), for even on vacation, I walked a block each day, lugging my laptop, so that I could "check in" on YT....
Thanks for the thread Villette, and thanks to all of you who make this such a great place to be! |
