I've seen Ann in person, not only is her temperament perfect for breeding, her looks are exemplary too!

Oh my computer got all screwed up and I meant to post that on this thread. http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/off...-member-3.html

Gil and his babies!

I was just thinking about this yesterday funny u said somethin. I was reading a post and was saddened by the rude comments people were leaving. I was debating on just leaving yorkietalk cuz I have just seen it to many times on here. But I do see more good nice people on here that only want to help instead of throughing their judgment around and telling people what to do and just being rude for no good reason. To many people on here think they are the all knowing god of yorkies and their way is the only way that makes me so mad. But people do that. We should be able report rude comments and if u get so many u can't come back or somethin idk but think something needs to be done because it is a problem this is a happy place a place to share stories help eachother not to bash eachother over dumb stuff people should not be scared to ask a question in fear of people tearing them apart. I seen it to much on here. I have debated on leaving quite a few times but always come back because there are nice people here we need to weed out the bad.I know a few friends of mine that left because of this reason.

Aww thanks you for compliments guys! I had a very difficult day today (best friend mummy died) so seeing that I made smiles really helped! Thanks you! xx <3

:thumbup: great post :)

What a lovely post. It made me want to cry :cry8:

You are right Pollyanna! :p

I think you left off the reason I joined. I wanted to GET a yorkie and I came on here to find out more about them. Boy what a training school this is!

And as for Ann.....

Marcia Marcia Marcia:rofl28ib:




Love ya Ann!

I agree 100%. Maybe if we can all just back out of posts that seem like their going the wrong way, we could avoid adding to the heat.

I have no idea what happened to cause the bans and no longer members things to happen... however I have to say. Ive been here a long time, not a newbie by any means. I have my fair share of posts and NEVER have I been on the brink of suspension, banned or even had a thread locked on me. Its not hard to ignore the stuff that puts your teeth on edge or to comment in ways that WILL make people HEAR you. I really do believe you get more bees with honey than vinegar, it truly works. Ive been told many times by many members, new and old that I am very eloquent with my words and have a way of getting my concerns read and taken into consideration. This is hard sometimes but worth it when you know someone HEARD you, and it works for ALL aspects of your life. Work, family, friends, the grocery store cashier... LOL

I just try to remember, angry usually goes in one ear and out the other, understanding, compassion and the true desire to educate is HEARD more. None of us can change the world overnight so we start with one person at a time and let the words spread. I want to stop bybs and puppymills as much as the next person, but there is no reason to hammer into someone when a simple explanation will do. Try to remember newbies come here as green as most of us were when we were new. :)

Thank you for posting. I am a fairly new member and asked only a few questions and feel that I've been slammed at least a couple of times - yes, I received private messages with apologies but would like to be free to ask a question without always having to think twice about how someone may react to an innocent question.

Great post :)!

It's becoming increasingly more difficult to peruse through the YT threads without seeing the continued drama. I just don't get it.

Pollyanna, I love this post. I am just kidding about the "Pollyanna", it made me smile when I read it in your original post. :)

Wow, Ann. You really went to great lengths just to tell me that you don't want me to be mean to you anymore. You created this whole thread, all generic and everything, listing no names, when it is clear that you are begging me to stop the verbal abuse that I have been putting you through.

Oh well, nice try.
We all know that won't be happening anytime soon. :)

Get over it.
As long as you keep getting older, I will keep making fun of you.

P.S. - I would advise you to quit being so obsessed with me. Young people (like me, of course) really hate it when old geezers (like yourself) get so overly-attached. Just back off. :D

Love you? duh.

Bwahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!

Do have any idea how much I've missed you lately????? Well, *GET* an idea, young lady :D!

Who am I supposed to obsess about if you are not here? WHO?

Oh crap, the Nursing Home is telling me it is time for my Padded Room Therapy...but I'll be back....

:rolleyes:

Great post!

I bite my tongue alot because I try to think of the persons feelings. One person doesn't know it all. That is why it important to try to help people with compassion. I know karma is a bi*&% also.

Can I just say this thread makes me feel all warm & fuzzy inside...thanks Ann!

It's a YT-Lovefest!

bashing
 

i so agree ann i couldn't have said it better myself..sadly i was the 1 that was bashed and bad because i decided to breed my yorkie to have an offspring of her and came on here to know more about the good and the bad..but i was condemned for breeding her saying i was signing her death warrant i would litterally get off here and cry..when it got closer to her due date i was trying not to stress out but ppl made me more stressed out that when she gave birth a wk early i found 4 friends on here and 1 that lives only 45min from me that i phoned her and she talked me threw it a i thank her for saving my chloe and her name is ann too cause chloe wasn't producing milk she suggested i take her to the vet to get a needle to help that even though it was father's day i didn't care plus the vet was already there for another emergency but i called him as soon as she was having them.the x-ray showed 3 pups when i got there i was 3 and half hrs cause she had a dead pup inside her if i didn't go i could of lost her..she pushed him out but he was already gone..i want to keep a female who came first then her 2 brothers but sadly the female died 3 days later..the 2 boys are doing great..so i haven't been on here much because i don't need the added stress from ppl that had to start somewhere..ty ann i praise you for what you said and hopefully ppl will listen

very nice thread---it would be nice if we all considered others.

I browse the site quite frequently and I understand that everyone is just as in love with their little ones, as I am...but honestly...at times I'm turned off by how quickly some threads can turn negative. I don't post very often..only if I feel I can help, or if I have a question. And sometimes I do have a question but I'm just plain scared that it might lead to something a little "mean". So I really appreciate this post because I have thought the same thing on more than one occasion....just sayin'

Never be afraid to post if you have a question. there are so many great people on here willing to help. don't let a few negative ones keep you from posting

In my opinion one must walk in anothers shoes to criticize or judge them. I believe in compassion. People come here for help and advice. Sometimes just to tell us the crazy antics our babies do. I say tread lightly it might be you someday that needs the compassion. We don't come here for a lecture.
Let's try to stick to the subject of the thread.

There are many more wonderful people than there are "mean" people. And honestly, I think at this point the "mean" people are either weeding out quickly or they sure will be. Post on, luvMIdog. Don't hesitate.

I would not say mean people, but people who just don't know when to quit when others are actually trying to help. The negative comments are not good for anyone. Not the OP, the person trying to help or the person making the negative comments and it only gets in the way of the ones who really are trying to help. And as for weeding out, I Totally disagree with ANYONE and I mean ANYONE needing to be weeded out. I think each of us has something very valuable to contribute to YT. We all just need to know that there is a time and a place for the negative and it's not in the middle of a sick dog crisis. I believe once you say you agree/disagree then that's it and theres no need to keep going on about it because it's not really helping the OP or the Dog and the OP only needs to read it once. I have only been here for little over a year and I have seen so many very valuable members leave because of the drama, people need to realize theres just no need for it and what does it prove ? absolutely nothing. I know everyone here on YT knows how to show compassion, I would just like to see a whole lot more compassion and allot less trying to prove a point, talk nasty about others and try to destroy others. I do not see anyone benefit from any of that and at the end of the day, does it really make anyone feel better about themselves ? I think not !
