We are all talking about compassion, how about showing some right now!

Show it to a person who has rescued so many pups. who tirelessly works for our Yorkie breed.

Enough already close this thread

AMEN.

Apparently the admin and Ann are not around so this crew is having a hay day. The other threads were closed and I am sure this one would have been if someone were here.
There was no reason for these people to continue this as they knew it was inappropriate...but they keep it up and keep saying how kind THEY are. Gag me.

It will be closed. Probably deleted. And then again tomorrow there will be another one to take it's place.

Just like this one took the place of the deleted thread from last night.

Now, I am going to leave. My kids got in to the "white trash" I made for the cookie exchange and ate most of it. Off to the store to get more ingredients to make more before tomorrow morning.

Was the other one deleted. I never went to look last night after coming home from my birthday celebration. IMO it makes this thread even worse since threads are never deleted.

Really deleted

One would hope that they kept in contact another way.

And Jodi, I hope it's obvious to you that I respect you and your opinions.

Again, you get it. An exhibitor/breeder is always approached for a possible show potential. Advertisement for a breeder/show dog is not the norm.

Unless you are heavily medicated.

I haven't seen anyone say they don't appreciate what you do for rescue. Hats to everyone who does. I have 2 in my house now that I rescued and we are going thru heartworm treatment. Its hard work and takes a lot of sacrifices.

Now, now Jodi......I'll excuse that one, since you've taken a lot today.

No one should not be compassionate for someone that is ill. But being ill doesn't excuse one from what is wrong and right.

Okay, I've gone back and forth about posting this, but I am going to.

Jodi, you say over and over again that you're being attacked because it's "you". And I think you are right about that. You have a very antagonistic style that rubs many people the wrong way. Have you considered how much more powerful your words would be and how much more good you would do if you worked on your approach?

I think you went way over the top with Sugar Mama, and honestly I have a hard time believing you didn't know it was her ad. At the same time, while it saddens me to say this since I think Sugar Mama is a sweet lady, the ad wasn't (and IMO, isn't) responsible. She should not be selling a puppy if she can't meet the buyers.

The truth of the matter is that sometimes you DO act like a bully, and that often distracts from what the real issues at hand are. Why do you give your critics so much material to work with?

It also seems to me that as aggressive as you are, you get extremely defensive if anyone challenges you. This also makes it hard to relate to you, because you are very eager to criticize, and yet totally closed to anything directed at you.

I respect the work you do, and I know you have a good heart. I just wish it were easier to see it sometimes.

Finally, I'd like to say that I know lots of people who do rescue work who are as sweet as sugar. Some of them started off that way, and some worked on it because they needed to deal effectively with the public. Working in rescue has 0% correlation with manners. Also, I really feel that when people use their charity work to defend themselves, they are using the charity inappropriately. You (generic you, not personal you) should give to your charity with your money, time, words, and deeds. Your charity should NOT give you a shield against criticism.
