Why not stop breeding these dogs to be 3 lbs and worth $2500 each? My vet is

I'll admit, I was very naive when the post was created in March - but I took the time to learn so I could provide the best possible life for my pup and had MelMel been a little more humane about the whole issue, she would have seen just how far my little friend and I had come.

I'm quite shocked at how mean and spiteful some people are on this forum. I don't think I'll ever understand what it is in the human spirit that makes them so bold online when they're nothing close to so bold in person.

I'll be encouraging potential buyers to come here and research breeders and the breeders "personalities" before ever buying another pup. I do really encourage people to watch what they say and do on the internet, because nothing is private and everything is traceable.

I'll be reading the loads of helpful information to be had on this forum, but I honestly don't think I'll be participating. It's not my style to hang out where so many vicious attacks are being slung about.

Heather - apology accepted. Thank you

MelMel - as for my worst, I would never want to buy a dog from a person who would rather jump to conclusions and call people idiots rather then getting the whole story and trying to educate them.

I've been an STD Patient Advocate for a number of years and can honestly say that sometimes offering a little kindness and education can go a long way.

I have learned enough to know that when someone sees my dog and asks if she is a tiny teacup - I tell them there is NO such thing and that she's just small. BUT she's 3 lbs now and 6 months old - so I'm hoping for at least another pound yet.

When you're conducting a business, even if it is selling quality puppies - I think it's important to watch what you say online because it can always come back haunt you.

However, as for your apology - it's obviously the best you can do so apology accepted.

I thought it would be fun to hang out with other Yorkie parents, but it seems the drama and backbiting is just as bad here as it is in a small office filled with women. I gave it a try but now I think I'll follow my instinct and bail while I can.
