| My Apology Hey everyone. I am new to this forum, and even though I don't post a lot, I respect the members here and I think I owe an apology. I've thought long and hard before I post this. I've made some very out there statements about dressing yorkie and the book series Twilight. Whilst I have my opinions it was not necessary for me to be so disrespectful, and I would like to apologize to anyone who was offended. I've only been speaking English for a few years, (though that is no excuse) I sometimes (okay, often) say things wrong. My wording is very poor, as I'm still learning. I don't mean to be offendy but my terminology can be very off, then I become frustrated when people don't understand what I'm trying to say and lash out. This was wrong of me and I hope that I can start afresh as a new, valued newbie. I especially like reading the section with picture and show dog. Please forgive me. Love, Disney. P.S. Funny story about my terminology. When I first came to Australia I told my school teacher he was weird and freaky, when I meant to say he was unique and special.

Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | Well that took alot for you to post on a public site ----seems you're reaching out and I'm sure you'll be touched back ! I've seen some of your posts and to tell you the truth - they kind of made me laugh only because it takes ALOT to offend me personally but reading anyone who is trying to make ammends is pretty cool. Welcome - so we're not weird anymore for dressing up doggies ???? (ok - we ARE weird)

| I gotta admit...It's grown on me. BUT I'm still not a fan of strollers or shoes. But I'm sure you smarty pants will convert me over time.

Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | haha - don't look at ME !! No shoes and no strollers here - I kind of draw my own line at those things - my girls enjoy walking too much and I've seen what dogs do wearing shoes lol |

| Glad you came around and can see other's points of view. Apology accepted. Welcome and enjoy the site. We all learn from each other. What's good for one may not be good for another but heck that's what makes YT such an original place to be. |

| Wow...that was really nice and big of you to come out and say. (Generally speaking, for the record, I am a HUGE fan of Twilight, but I realize not everyone is. I can understand when people don't like the books...everyone has their preferences. However, it INFURIATES me when I am criticized for liking them.) |

| I don't know what the issue(s) are but for you to come out and apologize is very gracious of you. We're all unique in our own way when it comes to these little furballs. p.s., I have a stroller for my too. lol

| It takes a lot of courage to post an apology. I admire you for that. I don't personally know which posts you are talking about, but that's because most of the time things go right over my head. I too can speak out before thinking sometimes and it has gotten me into trouble a time or two (lol, but not here (yet anyways) as I am older and wiser now). So, welcome to the new you!

| Thank so much for kind words! And Bama, we have something in common. I hate it when I'm criticized for NOT liking Twilight!

P.S. I have a stroller for Zoey too... and I LOVE LOVE LOVE it!! When she is tired of walking, she can hitch a ride and when some protection for her from crowds/environment is needed, it is perfect!!
