| Shocked You know, I joined this group thinking I could make some friends and gain some knowledge and with the exception of a couple, I have felt very unwelcomed because of the breeder where I got my baby and because I had a wonderful experience with them. Maybe if my baby had been sick you would have had open arms. Then I find this post about two yorkies that need help and I think WOW something positive, but then it just came down to bashing people about whether or not they should be allowed yorkies if they can't pay full price for them. I am sure that the majority of people on here are very nice and only here to brag about their babies but I have yet to see anything good and have seen some very snobbish attitudes. On that note, I'm out. |

| I'm not really sure what you are talking about but I'm sorry to hear that you are having a bad experience here at YT! Most of us do really try to stay positive and not bash anyone but unfortunately we can not control everyone. Hope you are able to stay around to experience those people, they really are great!

Donating YT 1000 Club Member | There really are more nice people than mean people here and it takes a while to figure the good from the bad out. BUT there is lots of good imformation here too so please stay even if it is in the back ground not posting for a while and you will begin to see it is really worth it. I felt the way you do for a while but now I stay away from the negative threads and stick with the good news!

| Aww so sorry you feel that way, but I understand what you mean, on I have to tell you this is a internet/community and a very large one, so we get all kind of people in here, but like Jeri said there is way more nice people than mean one in here, and a lot to learn, if anyone is making you uncomfortable or you feel that is attacking you some how, you can always report that individual to the moderator or administration or hit the ignore button |

My little Shadow Donating YT Member | Hoping that you will not be discouraged & stay with YT. There are a great number of people who are wonderful. I have been surprised sometimes & dissappointed, but the wonderful people surely outweigh the dissappointments. It's hard at first especially if you are new to a forum, but eventually you realize that there are a vast number of opinions. Just hoping that All can remain polite in their opinions.

I Love My Lil' Punkin's Donating Member | Wow, I am so sorry you feel this way. I'm not sure if I saw the threads that you were talking about or not, but I certainly can't imagine anyone here bashing someone because they didn't pay "full price" for a Yorkie??? To be quite honest, I'm not even sure what "full price" is There are members here that have gotten their Yorkies for FREE, and no one has bashed them I really hope you don't leave. I hope that you will just browse around YT for a while...there really are LOTS of good things being said and done here, and LOTS of very sweet members who are here willing to help anyone they can. I promise you, there is way more GOOD here than there is bad Please do not let a few rude comments (or whatever they were) make you upset enough to leave.

Donating YT 1000 Club Member | There is really nothing that compares to Yorkietalk. Ignore the one bad egg in the carton and you'll find lots of good ones

| From time to time I have felt that there were some posts were not very nice but for all the valuable information that I have learned and on-line friends that I have made, way outweigh the negative. There have been things that I would have never learned or thought about if it had not been for YT. There will always be those that have very strong opinions, but that is what they are--opinions. I would say to give it some time and you'll get to meet some really nice folks.

| I posted on that site about how Bilbao was treated... I know what you're upset about...Everyone I've ever come in contact with has been kind and understanding!!! I just wanted a place to go and have fun with Yorkie people who love their pets as much as I love mine...I hope you change your mind and stay. Just avoid the person who upset you... Blessings... Jodi G. and Baron

Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | Hey Deer Park - Houston here ...don't let a few posts run you off - look around the site some - there's far more here than what you saw. Everyone has opinions and that's what makes it interesting......and most of all - NO ONE Wants to see anyone with a sick dog. You won't agree with everything - no one does....and no one is "better" than anyone....We're all the same - we love our dogs. We may have our dogs in common but this site is also a good way to meet really good people. Take it from me - I've met some awesome people here - in 'real' life and online. |

Donating YT 30K Club Member | I hope you will give YT another chance. I have a pom from a pet store and a sick yorkie from a bad breeder and I love them both dearly. It doesn't matter where we get them, they are all loved the same.
