Would I or Have I rehomed? yes 300 times, They was not my babies but rescuses dogs and cats that noone wanted any more and just dropped off.so my husband and I took them in and cared for them until they found homes.
Would I ever rehome my dogs? No never If I am alive I will never rehome my babies. even after Im gone they will stay with my husband, if hes gone then yes they would have to be rehomed. if I become homeless. My family know how much my babies mean to me, they know if they took me in they would also be taking my babies in. So I would have to say I would never rehome my babies as long as Im alive.

I do post on the rehoming threads and its usualy to say that I hope that baby finds a forever loving home.I try to watch what I say because I am not in their shoes. being rude to them does not help matters.but I think rehoming is so very hard on the dog.

Rehome be it a pet or retired show/breeding dogs, Theres no difference to me. its all rehoming. To me maybe even worse, The dog was used for what the owner wanted and then rehomed, that to me is so wrong ...It gave so much to its owner I feel that that should be gave back for the rest of their life.
As for rude and mean pm's I too have got many of those, some not even about dogs or Yorkies. I feel that if someone has something mean to say, say it on the forum, why hide behind pm's?
Im not posting to hurt feelings or to be rude, JMO

I'm sorry for you or anyone else who has received rude/mean PM's. Perhaps we should all make it a goal to send out a certain number of nice and encouraging PM's since it seems a lot of negative ones have been sent. The world can always use a few more nice words and thoughts...

I think this was a great thread. We all had good points to make in the discussion and I also think we learned alot about each other.

It may not have turned out the way the OP wanted but I myself would like to see other opinions than my own. We are all living life in many different ways and it shows when we respond.

God Bless Us All:)

Great post, and by the response I can tell you started a lot of people thinking.:) We can never judge what it is like to walk in someone elses shoes. We come on here for friendship, information, support, and when we are lucky, a few laughs. We all have been guilty at one time or another of saying something we regret having said. Lets hope your post helps us all remember to think before we post. The very person who's feelings we may hurt, might be the very one to be there for us when we need help the most.;) I hope your friend gives us another chance; as you can tell by our responses, there are a lot of great people here. :) :thumbup:
