Hey y'all, I've been on this site for a few months now & have gotten some great advice from many of you but one thing that irks me/ rubs me the wrong way is that while y'all are very passionate about yorkies you tend to forget that some of us are new owners & do not like getting a lashing over the computer because of a brand of food we chose to feed our pet. What if that's the only food someone could afford? Yes I did feed my yorkie Jaxson Purina when I first got him because that's what the vet recommended to me but after further research I found that it wasn't the food for us. Along with that research I saw that lots of foods many yorkie owners talk about on also on the FDA recall list for whatever reason. People come on here to seek communicate with other owners & if you have an opinion give it but remember some of us are new to this & don't deserve to be chewed out basically because we bought the wrong food. So before telling me shame on you for feeding your pet purina and supporting that company maybe you should think back on when you first got your yorkie or any pet & if you made a mistake? How about what you eat? Most of these yorkies probably eat healthier then their owners do but yet I'm getting bashed with private messages. Sorry had to vent....I'm an Army wife whose husband got her a yorkie a few months ago & found this site to get info & talk to other owners but instead I find myself getting chewed out. ....End vent...

So that makes it ok for most of the ppl to judge cause they are givin u good advice who are any of u to judge someone who received a present from her husband who got our puppy from someone who obviously didn't care or jus wanted to get rid of the baby?

Personally I don't judge anybody. Because I don't care what other ppl do. But for me I never take,buy or ask much of anything without doing my own research and then validating it the best I can. Pretty simple. If you can post here you can search the web. Double check the sources ect.. If someone rescues of pup good for them. I won't think bad of them. If someone buys from a byb a teacup 8wks old. I would suggest researching more before you buy. Just because I wouldn't want somebody to support that breeder. Put them out of business. Like everybody we all have opinions. Bottom line what somebody else does doesn't concern me. I just go to the next post :D

I do the same. Read, reasearch, take what I need. There's good advice here, I've found a ton! And good people who love their dogs, heck, all dogs.

:eek: Back in the day, Purina was the go to food. Everyone used it! If your baby started on it, that's ok. I would if my vet said to. Mine is being a spoiled brat and won't eat anything atm. (at the moment), except ants!(and what I hand feed her).:aimeeyork

Just remember, everyone has an opinion...that's all it is, opinion.There is no "bestest in the whole wide world" dog food. If there was, we wouldn't be discussing which food to use with our furbabies!:D With so many dog foods on the market now days that it's overwhelming! Find one your baby likes, and its good for them and go with it :)
