nice advise to give someone that knows nothing about small breeds, She asked one question, got her answer, and took the advise, yet ppl continue to hammer away at her. It's over, her question was answered, why take this thread to another level.

Well said!

Because a thread is never, ever just for the OP. The OP also invited comments about vaccinations when she mentioned her vet's views on vaccinating at 6 weeks.

Hopefully her thread will be viewed by someone prior to purchasing and they will take the time to learn why it's not a good idea to buy a pup at such a young age.

The thing about posting on a public forum is that you will get all sorts of answers and opinions, it's the nature of the beast. And some of those answers and opinions might be some you don't want or aren't ready to hear. That doesn't mean the statements aren't valid or that they shouldn't be expressed. Nor is it a violation of YT's rules to state them. Nothing said on this thread was harsh or rude, until the OP started telling people to back off when she didn't want to hear something .

I'm done with this thread and OP.

BECAUSE we NEVER miss an opportunity to warn the millions of others who come here and read.

Thumb UP!!! Great Post.


These pups can and often do go down hill very fast, I've seen many pups end up dead here on YT. Its a cold hard fact. The vets and the breeders involved here are all wrong. AKC and YT experts, thousands of vets and breeders would disagree.

Just wanted to say hello, welcome to YT, and glad that you're asking good questions here - it's clear you really care about your kiddos.

Sometimes, it can be confusing for newer members here bc a lot of people will chime in on threads, and then sometimes the original poster feels badgered. No one here is trying to badger you :). Rather, they're chiming in first to try and help you with the experience they have -- and second, to educate/help others who may be reading this thread now or in the future.

We all understand that you have super young puppies and we all understand that you can't go backwards and do it differently now. We're here to support you going forward in your current situation. But, we still need to take the time and make the effort to make sure that those reading this thread do understand the dangers, the reasons, and the concerns regarding getting puppies when they're younger than recommended. This is important bc here at YT, all of us have seen helpless puppies die / get horribly sick because they were just too young and fragile...we definitely don't want to see that happen to your precious ones or anyone else's kiddos, if at all possible.

Everyone is welcome to post on this thread, so please just bear with us...even if some posts are repetitive. It's all good. It can all be positive if we choose it to be. :)

They sound like perfect Yorkie sitters. I'm glad you have them to rely on. :)

No one is chasing anyone away. In my post I said why they where to young and why they should not be left alone for 7 hours and there age is one of the reasons so it's going to come up. You really have to realize this is a public board and you can't make people post the way you want them to. There will be answers that people are not going to like that just happens and it's normally best to skip over those instead of starting drama telling people how to post.

My darlin you are taking it to another level. People where trying to help her and explain why it's bad to leave them for 7 hours and that has a lot to do with age. Another member was trying to help her about vaccines which again has a lot to do with age. She got nasty about it and then your started telling people how to post so it's not other people who took it to a new level.

Name Calling is against the rules

Some times when you get the same info over and over it seems like badgering when its really not people are also posting so anyone reading the thread can get the info too

A public forum is like Twitter - every news organization reports the same story over and over for pages and then everyone who wants to gets their say and anything important is repeated over and over and over. It's not meant to anger or irritate - that's just the way it is. Repeating reasonable truth as one knows it or sound facts as they see them usually isn't offensive to most people and those new to a thread who haven't read it from the first can still pick up on something they maybe needed to know.
