I believe you can educate without being rude..its called being tackfull....I mean if you get a new puppy and it has an accident on the carpet, you are not going to shove its nose in it because it "should have known better" are you? well..not all the newbies know better either.thats why they come here to learn.

But something I would like to remind everyone, we didn't all always have the understanding we do now,and many of us,myself included are still learning how to care for our precious babies. But would it not be better to be a lil easier on new members looking for information and wanting to understand the breed. Rather then chasing them away and making them feel they can't ask questions about anything because they will get hateful comments i:thumbup:n return? Try to remember, we are all people here, we are not perfect,NONE of us are. Try to remember what brings us here is our love for our lil fur babies and our want to keep them safe and do right by them. Think of how much most of us would not learn if we did not have other Yorkie Owners to teach us? Papers, no papers, no matter where the puppies come from,they are all the puppies we love. Gentle not so rough... I love this place,and would like for everyone that comes here new to get the same chance I did to learn about their lil ones. Try to remember each poster is a person , not just font on a screen.
