Now, can I tell someone what happened at lunch today? I was walking my yorkie puppy in his harness to the mailbox. I saw a lady on the sidewalk with a golden retriever and a lab (both on leashes). I politely walked out into the street with my puppy (culdesac) to go around them. Suddenly, the lab tore after my puppy!!!!!!!!!!! Without even thinking I whisked him UP into the air like a yoyo) dangling in his harness and caught him in mid-air about 6 feet off the ground! OMG, he was going to be that dog's lunch!! I was terrified for my pup. He was fine, though scared enough that he couldn't walk and I had to carry him!! The lady could no more control of those dogs than the man in the moon! I was so scared and angry I couldn't even speak. She walks these dogs for someone, so she doesn't even own them. She shouldn't be walking them if she can't control them!! If I'd have bent down to pick him up I imagine I would have had a dog bite or worse. I can hardly think about it without crying!!!!!

How totally scary!! We have to be ever vigilant!! My family and friends think I am crazy with how orotective Iam but I pulled that same move with Hefner when I was at a flea market recently a big dog got too close!! I am so glad he was in his harness. I think it is important to train your yorkie to jump into your arms and come on command too. You never know when it will sVE HIS LIFE!!

fAST THINKING. You might want to find the owner of those dogs and have a friendly talk about the dog walker.

DEVOTEDTOYOU:

I went back and found your thread "What is too old to breed?" It was one of the first opportunities I had to "get to the bottom" so to speak of people's strong feelings on these subjects and ask them to lighten up a little and not be quite so harsh sounding. I was happy to stand up for you in that instance and I am glad you are still here and sharing your stories. Your last one is a good lesson in vigilance and quick thinking.

....well I am new to yorkietalk. I've joined this past March with my yorkie, Comet, and I honestly have to say that if it had not been for this site, I would have "been in the lerch". I have gained more important information from the good, the bad and the ugly comments. I have gained facts about my yorkie that I could never have gotten from my dogs Vet! The topics have been insightful, and all of my questions have been answered to my satisfaction.

As far as the "meanies" go, I think that people sometimes feel so comfortable here, that they forget that so many people are "tuning in". I guess the saying is true..."Think before You Speak" .

Thank you yorkie moms and dads! I love this site!

Mydogkelsey · 05-12-2005, 04:47 PM

I just think if you see somebody being rude call them out on it, and leave it alone. If that person wants to be childish and rude, then let them. Snapping back at them and acting their level, is what they want. Just mind yer business and keep posting on this wonderful board!

devotedtoyou · 05-12-2005, 05:05 PM

I have to say I was really hurt when I was trying to get information on breeding my little girl and was treated like I was a bimbo. BUT, I'm tough, oh so tough, and I just had to step back for a few days and try again. I felt like I was getting no where and getting no information. SO, rather than breed my female, I bought us a new puppy, and he is a real doll. I would never, ever want to put my Gracie in any kind of jeopardy. Although I don't dress her up, I love her with all my heart and could never live with myself if something happened to her because I wanted another puppy. It was much safer and cheaper to buy another. Thankfully, not everyone thought I was uneducated and had nothing to offer, so I'm here to show everyone that I don't tuck tail and run!

SoCalyorkiLvr · 05-12-2005, 06:46 PM

Kelsey: I couldn't agree more! You are very wise grasshopper!

CometsMom: I am glad you can see through it all and stay even when it is not all good as Martha would say!! There is so much to learn on here and it is a real treasure to have this resource.

You too "DevotedtoYou"

tink-n-kody · 05-12-2005, 08:08 PM

Okay Okay Okay!!! It was me people just say it! I was the meany on the greenies page, Im not afraid to admit it! Okay maybe I did get out of line, if I offended anyone Im sorry I am very opinionated. You dont have to keep bringing it up and not saying who it was, just say it Tink-n-Kody I will be labeled as the horrible person for a while its kool. I however would like to say something though, Im not a newbie and I have posted again since that one it was my opinion and Im not going to not post again I was not trying to be mean! I will say I called no one names! Dont make false comments. That are not true at all. Everyone is entitled to their own opinions! Amanda

ssguzzy828 · 05-12-2005, 09:05 PM

Amanda,

If you read the post above you will see that we pretty much all agree to let it go and just respect each other thats all. I think you need to understand opinions are great we all have em. I guess we just want everyone to able to post thier opinions and in a way that doesnt get to harsh,thats all. Im glad you have continued to post and hope you continue to do so. You seem like a very passionate person when it comes to your opinions and i respect that all I ask in return is that you let us express ours without getting to upset if it doesnt agree with yours. I was just put off by the comment you made but its done and over with and life goes on. I am trying to learn as much as I can about yorkies and what to expect before i bring home my puppy in two weeks. I am a lil nervous as this will be my first time buying such a small breed i am used to shepherds. So I just want to be able wipe the slate clean be happy and merry and continue to have good times with the friends I have made here. I also hope to meet more and hope more of the newbies do post and dont scared off. So lets call a truce and start over. What do you say?

natalie · 05-12-2005, 09:09 PM

I say Yorkie Talk is full of great people and regardless of what you do or if you accidently say something that is offensive.. people here are kind-hearted, great and definately forgiving. So, if you've offended anyone or caused any controversy and harsh words.. I think everyone can agree that we have all looked passed it and can all move on to bigger and better things like.. doggie clothes. lol

jesscruz · 05-12-2005, 09:24 PM

i agree

and i also apologize if i offended anyone and got out of hand with my comments. it was just all out of frustration.

Tink...I know I just said I read your post and said WOW - I honestly said that because it was passionate and it WAS interesting - I know no one here is calling you mean - I think they are just using a few threads that have brought out emotions, which can happen to ANY of us who post alot - It's just a way of the boards.....

I'm the person who posted about a certain Kennel/Mill in July, 2004...Here it is May 2005 and it JUST got targeted also -that Kennel was contacted by someone here as a way to stir up something...I don't know why someone would even WANT to notify a bad breeder about something said here - but it goes to show thyat you just never know when ANY subject can become heated - but people usually move on ...

Sometimes I come on here and I feel like the kid wo transferred to another school in the middle of the year! I sit here and say brilliant things like DUH, whattaheckthatalkinbout? and ever so many more genius statements. How come I never can find the beginning of a thread that has the original splosion?
