| Harsh! OMGosh!!!! I was browsing (sp?) kijiji looking for yorkies as I often do and came upon someone selling "pomshires". As this is not an accident litter (she has her own website too) I emailed her and asked why she was breeding/selling mixed breed dogs as there are already many in the pound etc. This is the response I got back... Listen a$$hole, It's too bad that you have no life other than to harass people. All my pups were sold and I keep in close contact with each one. None have ever ended up in the pound!!! Why don't you do you and me a favor and F**K OFF I can't believe some people. I am really hurt

| Geez, people are so mean. The person who emailed you AND this person above!! Look, I feel for you. Obviously you are not just harassing people but looking out for the good of the puppies. It is STUPID, I think, that people pay hundreds of dollars for these "pomshires" aka MUTTS. When there are so many beautiful dogs in pounds, shelters. It's so sad. Obviously you do have better things to do than "harass" people (which you weren't) but you do take the time out of your life to look out for dogs. Caring about dogs is nothing to get yelled at for.

| the way I look at it, everyone has his or her own opinion. You can choose to give, to keep it to yourself or to listen to it to or ignore it. There is no reason to get bent out of shape, especially over something on the internet.

Donating YT 1000 Club Member | There is no way any of us are going to change the way some people mix breeds. The reply was from someone that mixes breeds and of course they don't have the decency to respond in a nice way. The bad thing is there are no laws to prevent this and until there are there is nothing that can be done. You did not deserve the harsh reply but I would not have wasted my time even send a msg to the person as I would not expect anything less than a bad response. I hope you can just consider the source....

| Harassment refers to a wide spectrum of offensive behavior. When the term is used in a legal sense it refers to behaviors that are found threatening or disturbing, and beyond those that are sanctioned by society. Sexual harassment refers to persistent and unwanted sexual advances, typically in the workplace, where the consequences of refusing are potentially very disadvantageous to the victim. She did not harrass that person. Here is the definition. You seem rather rude and accusational yourself. Google it!!! Last edited by Wylie's Mom; 06-17-2008 at 05:57 PM. |

| I have reported this person for being rude and harsh. The ad has been deleted. And here is the last response I got from her.... "Why don't you learn to spell??? It says you're a horse person.... you the a$$???" My email address is horseperson........... I created this email account when I was 10 and before I discovered that I am a yorkieperson.......... Hey I might make a new email! She is now offering him for stud.

| I'm not taking anyones side.. And ofcourse a language like she wrote is NOT okay! But if my 'mutt' (my sweet mixed breed baby) got a litter and I wanted to sell them, I would be very sad to get a negative email... We wouldn't have all these great breeds if humans had never mixed some of them |

| I dont agree with the language, and I didnt see the site, but if she is making sure that the dogs are going to good homes and makes sure they are staying out of shelters, then good for her. It isnt a crime to mix dogs. There are many people out there breeding only purebreds that dont take that much responsibility.
