So the next time someone comes on YT to whine and complain that either a breeder or a rescue would not allow then to own a one of their yorkies because they had children REFER BACK TO THIS VIDEO.

Furthermore, after you take a look at that video go and read this post in the rescue forum
http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/yor...home-asap.html

Now we are not even sure what happened to this puppy but he has a serious neck injury to his c1 and c2 vertebra, needs thousands of dollars in medical treatment AND there is no guarantee if he will ever walk right again! So if you thought this video was cute and there is nothing wrong, please reconsider what you think is appropriate treatment for these small and fragile little ones.

I stand behind my thoughts that the girl who is handling the dog looks very young and does not know better.

I am by no means an expert when it comes to raising a dog, I would not have been able to do it without the advice of many people on this forum and I have noted that many times.

As for the suggestion to look in the forum at the Rescue section, I do it almost everyday and I offer up my prayers whenever needed. I commend people who can take in a rescue and help bring the spirit back into a defeated creature.

I think some of the comments would be more constructive if they were made on the You Tube site (I have left mine there). Perhaps the person who originally posted the video would actually read them and take to heart the harm they could cause.

I am not sure why you see a problem with me referring someone that sees this video to a particular post in the rescue section. There is a 4 months old puppy that has a neck injury from being mistreated. The OPer is trying to bring awareness of how not to treat a fragile Yorkie everyone agrees that he was being handled in a rough manner. I was just trying to point out what could happen with rough treatment to a puppy. Not only that but when I spoke to my vet about this puppy he sadly told me that this type of injury is very common in small dogs~So to the OPer and anyone else that might are to read a story about what could and does happen please go and take a look. If I have offended anyone by posting this link I am sorry but this puppy has been in my dreams for days and I just cannot get him out of my mind.

I really think that the girl in this video should be old enough to know better. My 3, 4, and 6 yr olds know better. I didn't show them this video, but when one was posted a few days ago I did and my 3 yr old daugher said "Mama, she is going to hurt that Yorkie" when she saw the video. It's common sense IMO. You need to be gentle with these little ones.

My thoughts EXACTLY. My toddler knows better than to even TRY to carry her around. And for my 6, 8 and 9 year old, they even thought that was wrong... This girl looks like a teen, she should know darned good and right that what she is doing is wrong. Almost makes me wonder if shes high...

I saw a comment that people with young children shouldn't have dogs??

If you raise your children right, to respect animals, i dont see why that would be a problem! All of my kids are very gentle and kind with Macy. They know love is kind and gentle, not rough. Sorry, i guess that comment just hit me wrong.

nacke · 03-15-2009, 03:37 PM

Flag it as animal abuse. Thats what im doing..

SophieKatesMom · 03-15-2009, 03:48 PM

Oh my goodness, I did not mean to open up a can of worms.

When I stated I looked at the Rescue section everyday I was offering a compliment to the people who do the rescues. Trust me I hold those people in the highest regards.

I agree children should be taught to how to treat an aminal with respect. For those of you who have children and have done so that is wonderful and I am being sincere with that compliment.

I guess it is time for me to move on and fine another forum to for information. I meant no harm and only try to point out that the person in the video did look young.

Hay its ok! I just get irritated with the "dont have children around small dogs" comments, because i get it all the time... So i always have to pull and defend my children. Ya know?

Im not mad, i know you meant well

I wouldnt run off looking for another forum though! Not everyone agrees all of the time!

Oh please don't be upset. I hope that I didn't come across in a bad way. All I was trying to say is that I don't feel this girls age should be an excuse for her actions. Most children would know better.

I know that mine do. They aren't even allowed to hold Missy unless they are sitting down and she's in their lap. Not all kids (or even adults) know better though. There are often times that my children have to guide their friends or even other adults as to how to handle Missy properly.

Please, please don't be offended or feel that you have to find another forum to post on.

SophieKatesMom · 03-15-2009, 04:44 PM

Oh I am not upset, I just do not like to cause drama - I like a drama free life (good luck with that huh).

I did send the girl a message via You Tube telling her that I felt she needed to stop being so rough with her dog. I explained I was not an expert but from what I know she could cause some permanent long term damage to her beautiful pup. If it does any good I am not sure? She may be you typical teenage girl who thinks I am a crazy old woman and block me from ever seeing her videos again on You Tube.

Regarding rescues, I wish I had the heart to take in a dog and bring it back to health but I would end up with 50 dogs and no husband. I am attaching a picture of three beautiful orange kittens who decided I was their new Momma about 2 years ago. We feed them and kept them warm for 2 months and found them all homes. It almost killed me to send them off.

I love the picture and no it was not set up, this is how they used to sleep on my porch.

megansmomma · 03-15-2009, 04:45 PM

Nobody needs to move to a new forum, nobody in this thread is being accused of mistreating a yorkie (except for the fool in the youtube) and no one who has children that teach them how to act around their pups is being accused of anything~so I am not sure how this turned into something that it is not

This girl who looks about the age of my daughter is mistreating this dog. She should have been taught to treat animals with respect. Now, I would like to also say~the way she is treating this dog is the reason that people who have children get a bad rap with rescues and breeders. I was trying to follow this up with a current story happening right here before our eyes and that was my only intention by linking a post in the rescue section. So now I am totally lost as to why it has turned into something that it wasn't??????
