And a breeder is very lucky indeed if in three litters of pups, there is one Show Quality Dog. So most of the litter is destined to pet homes. It really saddens me, that the public still does not Understand, you don't go to a Show Breeder, because you want a show dog, you go there to support those breeders who strive to improve on the breed, and to bring wonderfull animals into this world. And you will become one of the lucky owners of years and years of great selective breeding. In fact as a pet owner, you simply would not be allowed to purchase a Show Quality dog. As a pet owner, why pay top dollars for an ill-bred dog? You can get if you are willing to wait a wonderfull example of the breed anywhere from $1200-$1800 (if you live in the really expensive cities etc - $1800 is top end of what I would pay for a pet Yorkie. And for that price, I want a show and working dog breeder, who does and posts all the required health tests, from Championed parents both show and working dog titles. A health guarantee that means something, and a lifelong commitment to support their puppy owners. For those pet owners who have "oopsey pregnancies", then I feel they should just basically *give* the puppies away for a nominal fee. $200-$300 or so dollars. After all you the puppy buyer are taking their mistakes off their hands, with no guarantee to health, temperament, or conformation. It is their responsibility to bear the costs of their mistakes. Not yours. I shake my head at folks that pay $1000 or more for a puppy from breeders who have no idea what they are doing, and or, do none of the health tests, none of the championships, none of the pedigree research. Hey but then they can sell their pups for $500 or $600 or $700 and you think you are getting a deal? Think again! |
But it appears I have now find myself doing exactly what I would not do, which is argue or debate the subject. Sorry for being condescending on that. I have spoken my peace. Those who dont see or understand what I am trying to say here, highly like will not wont no matter what else I say. |

Posted by Nancy1999:" I do understand, I just don't know how to change my writing, I really do the best I can. I see your initial posts as very attacking. Do you understand, that we have lost a lot of good responders because we are attacked and told our replies are worthless. Feel free to respond to any thread and answer the questions the way you think they should be answered, set a good example, but it really isn't all that helpful for you just to attack the people who are trying to give good information. If you think someone is way out of line in their replies, you can report them to admin. :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup: That is the job of the moderators....Ann takes her job very seriously and hovers around these posts and if someone reports a post, she will most certainly look at it and if it is inappropriate, she will see it is deleted. |

For crying out loud, for the umpteenth time if you don't like something report it, whining and crying and preaching and rolling out the words to paragraphs on a forum is really so time consuming...you keep saying a lot of people well a lot of people feel opposite to you, who and what you do behind the scenes and talk about is your business, if you don't like something just report it and stop trying to police people, you and those who think that way are trying to drive others off the board, in my humble opinion. There are many many people on this board and many many different personalities and these types of things have been going on since the beginning of YT...again, I say POST AND LET POST....But strangely there are always many many many people here....I'm not being condescending or judgemental, I'm just saying enough. Peace!! |

Another poster stated, Let people be who they are and post what they want to post. weed through what you dont like and get over it.... ok cool, then do so. Others obviously dont have a problem with stating their personal outlook of the situation, and some agree with their outlooks, some dont. so why should it be any different for me. |
[QUOTE=R-Teddy;4486743]ok that may indeed be true, but what some of you dont seem to understand, is that is not the way it is coming across to a lot of people. And often, when feeling as if they are being treated badly, of course people are going to come back defensive and likely wont wait around to "get more information". I have some friends on facebook who I met here on YT then later added to facebook that now refuse to come back to YT for the very reasons I have stated and more that I havnt. Is that what YT wants? I dont think it is.YT is suppose to be about helping people and more importantly, the dogs. I dont think having people be afraid to post and running away is what we want here, or not suppose to. How is that helping the dogs or people?[QUOTE] yep...and i'm one of them... and, on top of that...i guess i own a *crap* dog too!! i paid quite a bit for Jake, but he was evidently, from information i found out later, from a bad breeder...oh, and he's a morkie...i know some people also think they are *crap* dogs anyway...but i do agree that they are not a breed...they are a mix... i got a morkie because, it's real simple...i like the way they look and their personalities...so i probably shouldn't have even joined yorkie talk, because my baby isn't a yorkie... i almost posted here last week, as Jake was having some problems... but i decided not to...thankfully, all is well...and i had a lot of support and love from RTeddy, who's a wonderful dog mom and a terrific person... I did post when we had to say goodbye to our Gus, and got a lot of very wonderful responses...so thanks for that, i always appreciate kindness...most people do, and they don't want to feel like they are *less than* anyone else... like i've said before, i worked on a forum for over 10 years, not related to dogs...and trained my moderators...we never allowed *anyone* to attack anyone else...period...

But if I was trying to POLICE people, when Nancy asked me how I thought she should have responded, I would have replied to that. I didnt. Oh and I would love to move on, but people like you keep dragging me back in. but I found a solution. ill just delete the thread from my subscription and forget about it. have a great day. |

I have had so much support from YT for my other breed BRT, that I will always give respect to and honor the very many caring, concerned and valuable contributors to this board. I also from the former show breeder members here got lots of advice for my show Yorkie. Sadly most are not around anymore. In my gentlest way possible, I would like to point out, that many members here will do their best to "steer" folks away from less than ideal breeders. But look once you have your pup, they have captured your heart, and are yours for-ever more. Some will and might say, for cautionary purposes try to do this or that, for example get pet insurance that covers genetic defects. In your personal case of owning a Morkie, without knowing if both the breeding pair were fully health tested, I would say be mindfull of, LS and LP are very prevalent in both breeds, along with gastro-intestinal issues. You might consider if you have not BAT tested your pup, that you do so. Catching MVD early is a good thing. With mixes, you have no idea what the Russian Roulette wheel will bring. Morkies do not have an established health database to even begin to understand what the health concerns are of breeding Yorkie A to Maltese B. And for any dog, I always suggest a full blood panel be done at about one year old. And now, I too have taken this thread way off the original posters question, and will try to refrain from posting more. |
