Usually they do not publicly announce who they have chosen, they would proably do it by private email, and since it is a holiday weekend and it has only been a few days since the thread, they are probably still intending to use a few of the dogs on here. Things just don't happen that fast in the business world and it doesn't sound like their business was quite ready for the models just yet maybe.

Keep the faith....think poistive!

I thought it was weird but had fun looking at everyones pics. I dont exactly see the point in it if it was a scam. What did he get out of it?

I wanted to post pics of my girls, as i was typing a reply post i changed my mind and deleted it, but i had a great time seeing all these beautiful yorkie pics!

I hope it wasnt a scam, maybe this person will pick someone and inform the member about it by mail

Yeah all I can say is we all got to see some pretty Yorkie models. There was so many beautiful babies. Thats what Im wondering about the thread that said free dreeses and some of us sent in articals and the guy said we all won a dress.Hum I never received a dress???????????Did anyone else?

I think it was a scam and didnt trust it from the beginning so chose not to post any of my babies. i think that some people like to get their hands on pics of beautiful yorkies to pose off as their own on websites, ect...who knows but i have heard of this happening with puppy mill type people and especially brokers since they dont raise the puppies/dogs they sale, they have been know to steal pics of other people's dogs/puppies and say they are their's. so mean!!!!!
but, on the good side of this, i got to know just about everyone's yorkies! watch out "guess the yorkie" i have a referral now to go back too. HA HA

just wanted to add, it's COLD here tonight. is it freezing at any of your houses? my yorkies are all piled up in one big doggy pile...on their flannel blanket. so cute! my babies are nice and cozy with their mommy and their heat pad. i have a fire going, and the furnace on low and still have my throw around my shoulders.....brrrrrrrrrrr

I was wondering what the scam part would be...

I couldn't figure out how someone would benefits. If they wanted them, couldn't they just cruise the site and take what they wanted without going to as much trouble as they did?? Or did they just want what we thought was the best of the best?

I know at work we have copyrighted images, and it's a real pain to chase down people that take them and use them without permission. We have a PR person that works with a lawyer to handles it, but I imagine the average person wouldn't go to that expense and trouble.

My mom always said if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is!!

Good thing there is Karma!

I agree it is still too early to expect an answer but this guy didn't even give us the
name of his wholesale company ( because there are other retailers on this site from his co) Yeh!!
Sure. Lots of people whould like pics of yorkies for their clothing business, it doesn't
necessarily have to be the actual clothes they are selling and if they are like Villette, he can
put his clothes on our little dogs picture. Having it all on one site is a great help to
him and I don't think we can blame anyone but ourselves. What did txshopper say
"Hook Line and Sinker" BUT if you ever see one of our pictures on a puppy mill
site there will be hell to pay.
