Thank heavens there are enough people on here who don't care if they are called nasty names by people who are over sensitive and will speak up in the best interested of the DOG FIRST and the person responsible for the dog's suffering LAST.

(Oh, and as for why people post that they are tired of these threads....it's called sarchasm. I thought that was pretty obvious, but I guess not everyone "got it.")

That's where my bluntness and strong opinions come out, posts like that!
When I see posts & posters with what is considered by many unethical breeding practices, I speak up!
After four years there are more and more people using this site to sell puppies and though there are plenty of reputable breeders on this site, there are way too many that are highly questionable and any potential buyer should be made aware of breeders that scream out "red flags."
I think the OP has every right to post this and and everyone that responds has a right to defend one way or another.
Bottom line, people are going to speak up with frankness, bluntness. People are going to continue to help, educate and call out questionable breeders, etc..
I know I will!

I think being totally honest it's breeders, sick Yorkies/vet care and buying situations that bring a lot of heat to posts and since this site is dedicated to the love of Yorkies, that isn't going to change!

Then some of you are saying there's no "meanies" on here??...HA! well I don't know what dream realm you're living in but there DEFINATELY are some here....Ive seen it & I've only been here for a month! I haven't seen any "whiners" yet but like meanies I'm pretty sure they're out there.
I do agree that there are some members on here that can be rude, but are the most helpful. That doesn't change the fact that its still wrong to be rude! So.....if I donated a million dollars to charity, then one day decide to throw an old man out of his wheelchair....do I get a pass because I donated to charity?...NO! Lol & there's a difference between making your point clear & being plain rude. If your breath is smelling unpleasant one day...would you want someone to flat out tell you "You're breath stinks!" .....no you would want them to tell you in a RESPECTFUL manner....idc how passionate you are be RESPECTFUL! that should be applied here! This is not "BluntTalk.com"!

& since its ok to be rude cause "that's just the way it is" I will make sure im rude right back!

& to that comment about how you " Hate these type of threads" if you hate them why open it & then POST in it?...........just a thought *shrugs shoulders* :-

I hope I didn't burn any bridges here.....I'm really a sweet girl I swear I am....But I felt this had to be said.

Have you actually read the OP's other thread? I doubt it, but if you did, I'd love you to point out the posts you consider rude.

I haven't responded to any post I thought was rude, mean, etc. I have read some and shook my head but I go on. I like to be nice about things and not let things bother me. I love it here.

@Bamafan....I agree with you on some things...

Now I don't know about everyones elses encounter with "rudeness" on here, but with what I have experienced...there's no OPINION. It is as clear as filtered water that that this person was being rude.

I started a thread when I 1st registered here at YT. It was about me lookin ( & still looking ) for a yorkie, how I'm in college yadda yadda yadda. Well this breeder posted & she is clearly one of the elders here....been here for years & had thousands of posts under their belt. They were VERY helpful & knowledgable (sp?) about breeders & picking out yorkies. Then they recommened a breeder to me...but they were too far, & I told her I wanted to stay local. They were being helpful & kept giving me reasons y I should pick this breeder but I kindly rejected the offer & said I wanted to stay local. Well they mustve gotten fustrated with me & said: "Well, the breeder I recommended would probably have 2nd thoughts about placing a pup with a college student anyway."

.... HOW is that ^ statement helping me....is that advice?....NO
& if you KNEW this from the beginning why would you recommend them?

Now this is the opinion part....I felt that was said out of spite. :-\
Since I didnt want to go to your breeder...all of a sudden they wouldn't give me a pup ANYWAY? Hmmmm....interesting......

I must admit I did contradict myself because I asked about a breeder in TX, I had a dumb moment...but that was AFTER they wrote that rude comment. I thanked them for they're help & info & went on my merry way. I have seen that same member in other threads really helping people out that's why I kinda let it go.

from what i've seen and experienced, the "elders" some but not ALL tend to PUSH their opinions on people. and get VERY upset if you don't follow their advice. and that my friends, is an example of a meanie. lol.

It is okay to call. people who dont agree with you meanies, gangsters,rude but what if they called you the polite police since you think all advice should be sugar coated

Nope, I actually didn't. I wasn't basing my response to the OP's experience. I'm basing it off of MY experience! & one of my points was if the OP felt disrespected in anyway they have the right to express that.

I think you've posted in my thread & gave me good advice ( or maybe I've seen your posts in other threads & thought it was great advice ).......idk..... but I have no problem with you, & nothing in my response was directed towards you.

& to be honest I don't want to read that thread because it has nothing to do with me. That's between you & the OP.
