Can I be honest here?

We just had several little yorkies die this past 24 hours....personally - that really bothers me. To have Christine post this kind of thread is a good ice breaker for those who do feel a bit out of place... it could have been serious or had a few jokes - I personally like the jokes - it's a and good way to relax a bit and get to know the people who ARE feeling shy.

This site may seem to have cliques ....but it's really just regular posters who may joke back and forth - it's all in fun and everyone on the site is free to jump in anytime - the more the better ! I don't feel like it's high school at all - it's just spending time on the net and enjoying other peoples company....we all love yorkies so we ALL have that in common already...the rest is just icing on the cake.

Sorry I'm a little late to this party - but I couldn't agree more here. I think it is just that regular posters and those who PM know a little more about each other than those who don't post regularly (or aren't on here for hours). I have yet to reach out and not have something there for me and I hope others would say the same for me.

Another way to jump in is with yorkie meet-ups. I have met some really cool people in just two meet-ups. Once you've met in person - I think a bond is sealed!! Heck, I'd come to a yorkie meet-up even if I had to leave Sissy home!!

And don't worry if you don't sell anything - that isn't what it's about either. Besides that, there are so many people who make things - I can't remember half of them!!

So keep jumping right in. Threads like this are great for getting people involved!!!

Actually we seem to have alot of sick little puppies ...but several people have lost their dogs to car accidents....Trooper & Suzi just in 24 hours....and a little one named Lacey just passed too from illness....it's in the RIP section....

that's the hardest section to go in ....but that's where the people need the most support

Your right, I have a hard time going into that section and reading the posts.
I have had to put a stop for a while on my puppymill cruisade, because of my nightmares.... Hubby was getting mad at me!

I don't remember much about Altus. We moved away when i was 2. My mom was in the Airforce there. I would love to go visit and see my birthplace sometime though!

My dad passed away a year ago in Sept, and everywhere I went, people would say to me "Aren't you Jack's daughter? We are sure gonna miss him"
I am going there next month to check in on my step mom when I go to pick up my new puppy. It is just a small town and everyone knew my dad

More so with every year, I'll tell you what!! Well I have 4 sleepy pups to put to bed so I'm off. This thread has been a ball to read, thanks girls! Good night!

[LuvtheCooper]

Okay, I'm gonna jump in here too. First let me say, my boobs were born in Texas, but moved up here to Wa State 3 years ago. They are just dying to get back home...hopefully soon! Villette, can't believe you want to leave the state Seriously, I understand being homesick from where you from. Washington is a beautiful state (when you can see it from all the RAIN!!!) Also, I would gladly donate these boobs to whomever wants them...I'll even pay for shipping!!
I don't really think there are clicks here, just people who post more often and get to know each other because of it. I have been on here 9 months and just don't post enough for anyone to know who I am. I am on here alot though and read or try to read all the posts, I just am not a big typer I guess There are some great people on here though, their caring and compassion come through loud and clear. My husband used to make fun of me for being on here, but he enjoys all the stories I tell him about the yorkies and their humans. I do feel like I actually know some of the people who post, just through what they post and I think I could pick out alot of these yorkies in a crowded room, I really do!! I really,really like this forum and have learned tons! I also miss some of the people who post alot and then go away and you never hear from them again, I wonder what happened to them and their babies (yes, I am weird)!
But to the original poster, yep, I rememeber when you joined and I know who Zoe is, I remember you two because of his name and yours too...it does sound like a sneeze Anyhow, don't go away, cause then I will have to wonder whatever happened to you and Mr. Zoe.

Well V you have a way of making me feel like an a$$.. I love you... I avoid that room like its contagious!!! It hurts so bad to go in there!! But you are so right!!!! Its where the people need the most support... It kills me when your right girl... which is like 99% of the time!!!!!


As far as Not being a part of.....

I know who you are!!!!! I laughed my butt off when I realized Zoe was a boy and told my husband what a kick butt name it was!!! I see you around lots!!!!

I don't feel I'm a part of anything... just a part of YT! and so are you!!! We all are

[cchu]

hahaha yes...the famous MALE Zoe!!

I still think the name is unisex!! ANyhoo, as for the lost section, my heart really breaks when I hear of accidents or deaths. I lost 2 pets myself and I can't imagine ever losing ZOe. Its just such a tough subject and yes, they do need the most support and when I come by a sad post, I try to sympathize but really there's nothing you can say that will take the pain away.

[Kathryn_V]

I tell you my hubby really thought that name rocked for a boy!!!!!

Sorry, this is definitely a boob clique! I can only get away with replying now because it's 3 a.m. and she's sleeping!

Yes, Eddie did FINALLY come out from under the bed and tried to pretend like he wasn't scared.

It doesn't matter whether our Yorkies are puppy mill quality or show quality and whatever falls inbetween. Sorry but now I just killed this thread by posting!

no one gets ignored on yt...just remember how huge it is...it's easy to be overlooked but most posts aren't ignored.

but I DID notice since you posted in our high school thread (just kidding !) you don't have an avatar - would you like me to make you one ??? If you have 4-5 good pics I'll be happy to make you an animated one.
