				 |  So a lady walks into my work today....  with a yorkie under her arm, 2 1/2 pounds.  No teeth.  States that is because previous owners only fed it junk food so it lost all of it's teeth. Then proceeds to feed it hard candy from this cup we have sitting on the counter, that is at least 8 months old. Then licks her finger, dips it back into the cup and then puts it in her mouth. On and on. She ends up having a ring (the lady) of hard candy around her mouth. Not kidding. Then asks if my yorkies are tiny like her yorkie and tells me she always takes her dog out to eat fast food.   I  not a member here, but guessing by her behavior, highly doubtful.

				 |    I got the feeling she had a drinking problem and I could tell nothing I was going to say was going to change her behavior, so this time I really had to bite my tongue.

				 |    Poor dog... It's one thing to feed healthy food to a dog, but if its not healthy for me - my dogs sure don't get it!

				 |    OMG!!!   I thought the worst thing I have seen was somebody sharing ice cream from the same spoon!!!  I have nothing against sharing food with the babies, mine actually are really big beggers, but...  what an irresponsible way to malnourish a poor dog...

				 |    i wouldnt want to reach under your legs and touch your          No doubt. Yeah this lady was all, are your yorkies as tiny as mine and I am thinking my yorkies are nothing like yours, they have teeth and are well groomed. Then she went on and on how expensive yorkies are and almost insisting to know what I paid and how I afforded it...um, a - none of your business, b - I have a job. Nutty.

  So stupid.. I'd much rather have a well-bred dog that meets the standard anyway.  And like it matters how much you paid for your dog..price doesn't always equal quality

 It seemed like that type of person who takes the dog everywhere just to get attention and then talks about how small it is. Kinda sad really.

| Donating YT 11K Club Member |    That's sad and so unfair to the dog. It will eat whatever the owners give it most likely, and she feeds it candy  That dog is prob. really hyper most times, and not getting the nutrition it needs
