In the area where I live one of the shelters uses a decompression chamber to kill the animals.

YIKES!!! What does that do to the poor doggies?? Do I dare ask.

I guess it rapidly takes the air from their lungs and they die. Imagine a place that calls themselves a "humane society" doing such a thing. It has been going on for decades and is supported by the county. A group of people broke off from that organization years ago and started another shelter that keeps the animals as long as possible and only puts down hopeless cases. They do it by injection. Of course that means they often run out of space. There is never enough room for all the homeless animals in this area. So sad.

oh god .... Well, at least the other group does it by needle and only as a last resort. Can't these shelters reach out to rescue groups to take these animals before putting them down. So sad, spay or neuter your pets, please.

The Wise Ones who approve memberships were very impressed at the brevity of your application -- name, age, weight, sex and an accompanying link to pictures in three short sentences. Absolutely perfect.

Normally, 7.4 pounds at one year, with vet verification, is good enough for immediate acceptance. However, we notice you are from Stockton, Calif., home of the dreaded Stockton Thunder of the East Coast Hockey League and a nemesis to the Alaska Aces.

The Oracle who delivers the membership verdicts from the Wise Ones happens to be a big-time Aces fan and has the power to delay Toto's acceptance for any reason he deems fit. For that reason, consider Toto's application delayed.

Unfortunately, the Oracle's power is limited to short term delays. In fact, the delay period has already expired.

Toto is hereby accepted into the Teapot Club and Secret Society with full membership. Congratulations!

Funny I get an email about this post. Miles and I are walking back from Rite Aid and this guy says "hi, little teacup!!". I was silently cracking up. Yes, my sweet little 9 lb. teacup, lol!!! I guess he associates a yorkie, any yorkie as a teacup yorkie. Guess it's better than 'why is he so big / is he pure breed yorkie or how much does he weigh'.

LOL. I never know what to say in those situations. I might try, "No, he's a Teapot." And see what they say!

Ha ha!!! Then we may never get home lol!!! I had ice cream in my bag. People seem to,be pretty fascinated with Yorkies. I am like, I live in the NYC Metro area, I spend most of my time in Manhattan where people can buy an 8K "tea cup" Yorkie with a blink of an eye so why is my doggie so interesting; I am certainly not complaining. I was talking to a couple with a Morkie at the pier and they said Miles was the most beautiful Yorkie they've ever seen, WOW!! We certainly do attract attention as I assume all of the Yorkie Mommies on the the forum do as well.

Why do you think I walk Bailey all the time (Don't tell Natalie!)

Ha ha!!! Except when the family circus is on the elevator and one little rug rat tried to mash my doggie's head while he is in his doggie purse. I had to tell him "careful...". I don't care if I seem like a b$&@h, I am the grown up and it's my dog.

I try and walk Jaeger as much as possible, but sometimes in places like Home Depot I wish I could put Jaeger in a purse. When I carry him, his torso takes up most of the length of my forearm (its the doxie in him-he's fairly lean for his build, he's just VERY long)

[concretegurl]

What...the...freak!

Oh...my..yorkies!!!


We have a hockey team in Cali?

Well whatever our hockey cheerleaders are way better than the Alaskan ones so neener!

How about a suggestion for a carrying pack sling for a big, long yorkie?

Fellow Teapots:
Please accept me into your ranks. I would like to bring a new bit of business to the table: Teapot Pride.

I submit we need to think of ourselves as fabulous dogs, instead of accepting second hand citizenship due to our size. My person has told me she specifically looked hard to find me, as she wanted a fabulous dog, not a fashion accessory with hair. In any case, I know we are all loved by our people (my person says there is more of me to love, and has said I am very entertaining!)

PS: The manufacturer of my snowsuit has used ME as the model on their web site!
