I Love Yorkietalk Because.....
 

I love it because i too have found life long friends and gained SO MUCH KNOWLEDGE i would NOT change a thing :)

Thank you for starting this thread Cindy. Very Nice Idea :thumbup:



Ps. Remember it's Doogan :p Im so excited :)

I love Yorkie Talk because it's a way to just come and chat and visit and buy and laugh and buy and cry and buy and make new friends and buy.............:D

I love YorkieTalk,because I am learning things to help me keep my Banjo a healthier and happier boy!
and I am making great new friends!

Oh my gosh -- I could list a thousand things....but then I'd become one of the reasons you'd be annoyed by Yorkie Talk. So...

I love it because of the apparent endless support I've found here - the kindness, intelligence, warmth, humor, willingness, strength. I've learned a TON. I would say that I've learned 80% of what I know about Yorkies right *here*. I also learn about myself and others here - and I always welcome those opportunities.

And you know...it's not every day that I run into people that I truly admire and respect - but ya know what? I run into people I admire and respect ALL DAY LONG here at YT - and I LOVE that. :)

I love Yorkie Talk because of all the wonderful friendships I've formed with fellow yorkie lovers.

I also love it here because of all the incredible knowledge and helpfulness that the members contribute!

ETA-- I love YT because I've found people who love their furbabies just as much as me and it's made me feel less like the crazy dog lady! LOL!

I love this place with my whole heart..it has been a place to share my fears, joys, sorrows, learn and most of all I have made some very good friends.

YT is a good place to be.

Cindy Lu....leave it to your sweet self to start this thread.

I love yt because I have made great friends, learned stuff I didn't even know I didn't know, had prayers answered, prayed for others, learned more than I ever wanted to know about bull penises, cried for people, hugged people, got on a plane for an adventure that changed lives, was part of a yorkie train, and I could go on and on but dh is giving me "the look":D

I LOVE YT BECAUSE.....You guys really, truly understand me. Pokey is my new child. I cant have children, so Pokey will be the closest thing to a child for me. And you guys get that. That to me....she IS human...sometimes even better than human because she is all about love and doesnt talk back!!;)

Also, you educate me THOROUGHLY!! You know that book "What to expect when you're expecting" then I think the sequel for mothers is called the first five years or something....well, YT is like that book for me. You answer any and all of my questoins to help me to be the best mommy I can be!!! Thank you all. :)

I LOVE YT BECAUSE.....

It is the most amazing place, the only place that understands us crazy yorkie owners. Who else would you talk to about rainbow poop,,anal glads, what home gormet meal should i cook my yorkie while i eat mac and cheese, what color bow with this dress, cross dressing boys and so on with out being strapped in a white jacket and toted off haha!

I have met the most amazing people here on YT some life long friends that i cherish dearly, I have also learned life saving things that i would never have known exept to have had to go through them. I am glad that this site is here so I know what foods,treats,and other stuff to avoid.

I had a trumatc experiance with a bully stick and Peeka and i am so proud i could share it here to save someone heart ache of dealing with this situation.

I LOVE YT BECAUSE...
It's the greatest place in the world..

It's HOME:):love:

Thanks for the thread Cindy good work:)

I just wanted to add without YT there would have never been Krackle Jax LOL!!!!! You all inspired me so much here i appreciate and love you all!!:love:

What an awesome thread.

This is going to be long and drawn out and...yeah. :p

I love YorkieTalk for so many reasons its nearly impossible to name them all.

I joined on YT when I was 12 years old - I had JUST turned 12. My Mom is on here too (teri88). I remember that we joined during a family tragedy - our yorkie baby, Bandit, had passed away. He was 14 weeks old and we only had him for a month but we loved him with all our heart.

Immedietly, I saw the love and compassion in the people on here. They took these people that they didn't even know and prayed for us that Bandit would recover, and prayed for us when he didn't. Even though a lot of those members are no longer here, the feeling of that kind of love and security IS still here and present in almost every thread.

I've never in my life met a group of people so caring that they would LOOK for people who are in need, and reach out in any way they humanly can to help that person - even something as simple as praying has been known to change lives. It makes me feel unworthy sometimes to be among people with such big hearts and SO much knowledge.

Oh the amount of knowledge on this site - if it wasn't the internet it would probably explode due to the knowledge overload! I've learned so much here it even surprises ME what I can pull out of my head when I need it. Its not like I came on here expecting to learn -- I don't even know what i really joined looking for, I didn't even know what a forum was. I know that my Mom was looking for help and she got it, so I guess I was just looking to see what was going on here that people were so smart! and so willing to SPREAD that intelligence.

A lot of the original members are still here, and I love them all dearly. They play a big part in making YT what it is and making sure that we stay (mostly) in line so that YT doesn't go to the dogs (haha...stupid puns)!

You all have supported me through EVERYTHING. A few of the hardest things in my life...and you guys were there to pick me up. When my real life friends (and even some family) would look at me like I was crazy or over-dramatic, I knew that you guys were there and you won't tell me I'm crazy or dramatic. Well, you might. But you'll still help. :p

Now I'm 15 and my 3rd anniversary is coming up! I don't remember what life was like without my extended yorkietalk family. But this place is truly like a "home" to me. and when everything else in life does a flip upside down - as it tends to do to all of us - I know that I can come "home" on here and you all will STILL be here being amazing and sharing your wisdom.
I belong to about 5 forums. This one feels like "home" and I can't get off the computer without jumping on here and seeing what you all are up to.

I will commonly talk about you all in my real day-to-day life. Unfortunatly, my friends and their parents wouldn't understand and would think that I'm being very unsafe if I told them that you all were internet friends - so....I will usually say "my aunt ___" haha. I have lots of "aunts" "cousins" and others of that sort that I've never met face to face in my life. :p ;) And even though that's kind of strange, its really not too far out there because I DO think of a lot of you as being extended family members.

I love you all dearly!

Great Thread!

There is no one reason why I LOVE Yorkie Talk! I just happen to love too many things to list..... but especially the great people here.... it is a great "little corner of the world"

AND best of all, if it werent for YT, I would never have found my precious baby girl, Hope(we love you Mom Linda-lksdolls!)

I Love YorkieTalk!
 

:2hearts2:I love YorkieTalk because there is so much Love, Knowledge and Dedication here... Where else can you find a group of people that are nuts about their babies.... Until now, I thought I was the only one who felt this way about their ... I could'nt relate to no one I knew, or better say know, everyone thinks I'm nuts... Here I don't feel alone... This is a wonderful place, I wish I would've known about this forum years ago... But now I can share my thoughts and experiences with you all...
I'm fairly new to this forum, exactly 11 days ago I stumbled upon this site, when I was in search of an alternative treatment for one of my babies... I LOVE YORKIETALK!!!:2hearts2:
:yorkiesar :yorkietal

I Love :aimeeyorkNygee, :aimeeyorkGizmo & :aimeeyorkGypsy!!

I love yorkietalk because of everyone's shared passion for animals, and not just yorkies. It blows me away how many times over the past 3 years, someone has come upon a dog that needs "saving", makes a post about it, and within hours, people are volunteering their time and money....I mean, we chat online, but how many of us have really met in person? It's nice to know that we've got each others backs in a time and age where you aren't sure you can trust anyone anymore.

Most memorably, I am thinking of the yorkie that was advertised for sale at a yard sale, maybe about this time last year. Any updates on him?

how do we know what member number we are?

I love Yorkietalk because this is my nightly treat. I get my mommy time on YT each night and it really is something to look forward to. I couldn't count how many days I use to be so down in the dumps and I would come on here and my mood would just change. There are so many caring people on here. In all the bad we here in the world it's nice to see that people do really care. :)

I love YT because it saved Brooke's life!
 

I love YT because it saved Brooke's life! I joined in July of 07 and my Brooke had just been diagnosed with GME, Granulomatous Meningioencephalitis, a rare immune related brain disease that is fatal. I started my first post by asking if anyone else had experience with this disease. Divapup posted a reply asking if I had been to the GMEDogs Yahoo group, and I had never even heard of such a thing and no internet search had ever come up for it. I joined that group and learned about a neurologist in Boston that had a 90% success rate in curing GME, I contacted him right away and the rest is history. Brooke, so far, knock on wood, is in remission and she has a 60-70% chance of never having a GME relapse in the future! I it hadn't been for this group, I would have never found out about Dr. Sisson and Brooke would have died!! I will be forever grateful!

I Love YorkieTalk Because.....
 

i love yorkietalk.com becuase of people who posted above me!!!! caring people who will always watch your back and stay on your side no matter how crazy the world gets!!!! im so glad i have been welcomed with open arms here and already im buliding friendships to last a lifetime! thank you everyone for your support and unfailing love for my babies and me!!!

I Love Yorkietalk because after my loss of Grizzley Bear I came across it when I was googling pictures of yorkies. I was so sad and was lost without my little guy. I started reading all the sick and injured posts. Looked at as many pictures and videos I could. I was so attracted to the way everybody loved their babies and the upmost care they give them. Then I went to the fallen yorkie area and posted my story.The responses I received helped me to start the recovery process and I knew I was blessed for finding this site. It is a hard road to travel when you lose a pet but when you have a group like this that you can hang with and be so fortunate for them to share their babies with you. That in itself is a blessing. I just wish that I could just hug all of you and pat your babies on the head because for me it's all about the babies. I adore them all. They make my day.:) Thanks to all of you for sharing them!

What a beautiful post this was, it made me cry. I think you have alot to offer and should always put your 2 cents in!! You are a special person!

I love YorkieTalk because of people like the ones that have posted before me and also the ones who will post after me. I have a genuine love for my friends here and have so many laughs with them.

I always know I can count on YT and it's members.... the members here go far and beyond to help each other and that is heartwarming.

WOW. I love this.

Adding to my list of reasons
 

l LOVE YORKIETALK BECAUSE.....

of all the people who have posted in this thread - it's the people who make this site so fantastic.....

it has been a lifeline to so many people, including me while I was recovering from a serious accident and spent 6 weeks in bed with my leg elevated

because the Admins and Moderators are fair and unbiased

I have the "whole world" at my disposal to brag about my babies, to share funny stories and tragedies and to call upon during times of need.

to be continued.......

i love yourkie talk because...
 

ive always been a shy person... ive always had trouble making friends.... yorkietalk came at a time in my life when i felt more alone than ever... most of my friends were that i had made were growing farther and farther away from me.... and yet here was yt with so many more friends just waiting to meet me.
yt has been there to help me with questions i thought were too stupid to ask...
and of course where else can i post pictures of Pebbles constantly and not have people think im crazy

i love yorkie talk because lexi is who she is today because of it.. this site
has helped me tremendously with everything i know now.. i have met
wonderful people that i can trust with my life..i have more love for animals
than i ever had before..being on this site makes me happy and being happy
makes my lexi happier, so thank you from the bottom of my heart..
i know i could always come on here for support from my yorkie talk friend.:ghug:

I love Yorkietalk because....

... I love my dogs. With my whole heart and soul. They are my world. Noone who knows me truely knows how I feel about them. Except everyone here. Whether they make me laugh, scare me or make me cry, I know that I can come here for sound advice, to be told Im not 'losing it and they just dogs' and it feels good to have a community of people who understand that pure simple joy of loving your pet so unconditionally.

I love YT because, after surfing the net, I finally found a site that has everything I could ever want to know about Yorkies. The people here are wonderful and very thoughtful of others, something you just don't find very often anymore. Being in the "waiting room" while pups were coming was so exciting, just like being there. Thanks YT members, for being you!!!

HAHA I must be YT Member number 193 cause I signed up July 29, 2004 - how did you know the exact number ? by memory ? Cause THAT is one case of Trivial Pursuit If I ever saw it !!! LOL:D:D:D:D



I love YT cause I've met some of the best people here both online AND in person....and I'll never ever forget the support last year when my husband died...not to mention 3 beautiful ladies in Michigan who came to his funeral/house afterwards......the pm's the emails, the calls - and just in general ....the support... is something I just will never forget for the rest of my life.

the other reasons I love Yt is I used to get ALL my goofiness out with my cartoons and Spy girl stories - I really enjoyed the feedback. Now that I work fulltime I never seem to have the time to do stuff like that but my girls are STILL spying - even if it is only on my car now :D

on - and my girls are some of the best dressed little dogs in my area thanks to YT talented members - Thank you to everyone and Rock on !

I Love Yorkietalk because.....
all the warm kinded, genuine people out there. I have made so many wonderful friends here. They have cried and laughed with me. Helped me over the rocky times in my life.

I have learned so many yorkie tips and advice.

I try everyday to welcome new members and assist them if they need anything. I remember being new and completely lost. YT has grown so much!
