Exactly what horrible things were said by Megansmomma spell it out because I have read it I dont see her name calling or mocking her because shes sick. All I see is Megansmomma questioning her about what she has in the ad. What is so horrendous and horrible about that or is it just because Dee said she is sick and you dont think she should be questioned?

Hypocrisy at it's finest.

I ask why was the ad posted in the first place? There are hundreds of ads promoting the sales of young puppies on the internet. Why was this one chosen to bring into YT. Why isn't someone posting all the ads found on the net? All one has to do is look and you can find all sorts of people selling 5 and 6 weeks old puppies. Where are all these ads posted at on here?
It seems to me that ad was singled out.
I don't condone selling puppies 5 or 6 weeks old, but taking a deposit does not mean you are selling it at that given moment.

If you question the ethics of the breeders that you are saying, "birds of a feather", are you also questioning the ethics of the buyer of the puppies?? It's more than fair to assume that you lumped me into the breeder category. Since it has been justified saying that there are 2 groups here...."one that cares about the breed and one that makes money off of their Yorkies".

Just curious...if you say this about me, as a breeder, what are you saying about the people that own my puppies?

Further, I don't know her at all but I've seen her website and I would not buy a dog from Dee because her dogs are just not my type, let's just leave it at that to be NICE. It's not that hard (for me).

Not only are the dogs not my type (just being nice like you), the breeder has quite a history here on YT. I've only been looking around for 5 minutes and I'm seeing all kinds of stuff about puppies with open fontanels, no money except for groceries, and pages upon pages of questions of integrity and another breeder getting screwed in a transaction. It boggles my mind that someone is breeding dogs when back in July 2010 (only 5 months ago), they had no money except for groceries.

This is done all the time in general. We post ads of breeders selling pregnant dogs, we post ads of breeders selling 8 week old dogs, a 5 week old is the youngest I've ever seen. You've often told me I only post on the parti threads, perhaps if you read more than just the controversial threads, you would know that these types of ads are posted regularly. The only thing that was different this time is the fact that it was a YT breeder, and that made it controversial.

I have to a laugh out loud at that one if you're referring to me.

[chachi]

Why are there people on here who are assuming they are being called bad breeders that are being insinuated about. No where were their names given, I said there were 2 groups of people on here one that goes along with bad breeding practices and one that doesnt. No where did I say anyone was just making money off their dogs that was thrown in here by Breezeaway when it was never said by me anyway.

How could she when she has no money? Back in July 2010 she posted that she had no money except for groceries and people asked her then why she was breeding if no money..... Sight unseen, I'd disagree that she takes very good care of them, because she can't possibly when she only has enough money for groceries....unless she won the scratch off since July.

I wasn't referring to your comment.

Then you need to go back to puppyfind and look at the first 7 pages alone I count 36 under the age of 12 weeks for sale. There was a couple only days old.

Innocence, I doubt it, as you said there was city, state and phone number. You didn't google it? Some detective you are. By the way all you had to do is look at the bottom of the page and it states........
Contact Dee by email:
View all listings by Dee

You knew very well who it was.

Well, if it's just ANY ad, you don't know if the poster is really ill. You naturally assume the worst, that they are lying. That's fine. However, when it's a long time member, and you find out that the poster is TRULY ill and that she didn't mean it to sound the way it did. Yet, no apology made? THAT'S LUDICROUS AND RUDE! We all make mistakes...Sugar's mom made a mistake by not clarifying in her ad, and Megansmomma made a mistake with her assumptions as it turns out that the poster is TRULY ill and that she ISN'T selling the pup at 5 weeks old. She did say "deposit to hold" at the end, then Megansmomma tried to start another fuss by mentioning about "pet price" and ignores the sentence before that phrase...Ignorance to me...I guess...that's why they say "ignorance is bliss".

Caring about the breed is one things, but taking it to the level that you had taken it...that's another issue. If you truly care about the breed...why don't you get off the forum and take action to help rescue many yorkies that need help?? Instead of bashing people on YT, how immature.

(1) Would the same outrage be shown if this was not a member? Well more than likely no, if this was just some random Joe they would not have been able to come on here to defend themselves. So it is found out that she is a member does that give her a pass? No, but she came on to explain and changed her add not to mention that she is sick. So taking all that into consideration I feel that it could have been handled a little better.
(2) Just because someone does not post a lot does not mean that they don’t come on to read from time to time. It’s not unthinkable that she just happened to log in and see this thread .
(3) I see a lot of the times people will post “sorry to hear about that , but” it’s hard to feel like compassion is being shown when you have a stick behind your back.
(4) Do we know that this lady is actually sick? No, but we don’t know that she is not either. It’s easy to show love to our furry friends because they will always love us no questions asked. Animals have a simple honesty....they remind you of how life is without all the complications! Why is it so hard to show that love to our fellow man? Man is complicated, flawed and hard to love at times but we must try to show compassion.
