Brooke--please read
 

Brooke--I don't know if I have ever mentioned this on YT before, but your little Stedman is the reason I found this site. After my daughter got her first yorkie, Benson, her bf was on the internet doing yorkie searches--Benson was a sickly little thing and they were always having an emergency. Anyway...the bf found YT and saw your little Stedman. My daughter called immediately and told me to go and look him up.

We were all in awe of your cute little pictures of him--constantly changing! After I got Emmy, I came back to YT to join and learn more about yorkies. Low and behold, soon after, you got little Tatar Tot! We have all enjoyed looking at your babies grow, listening to all your great advice, and sympathized with you when one of them was sick!

Please down let this get you down. Please don't leave YT. Sooner or later it will come to light who started the trouble and they will leave, with their tail between their legs. I know it seems we have been having a "run of bad luck" with yorkie talkers lately, but think of all the good things too--like the pattycake train! Don't forget all the newbies that do come looking for information about their new furbabies!

Once again, thank you for leading me to YT! You are a great yorkie mommy!:thumbup:

I'm so sorry.....how awful of someone to make such an outrageous assumption (especially about YOU).

Try not to upset yourself anymore than you already are....I'm sure whomever this person is would expect such a reaction. Don't give him/her the satisfaction!

Another reason why 9 times out of 10 I prefer dogs to people!

Hugs....

Kim

Brooke i am sitting here with my jaw dropped... i am STUNNED that someone who can call themselves a yorkie owner and lover would do that to someone... of all the nerve and like you weren't going to find out!!! they should be ashamed of themselves... we all know what an AMAZING mom you are to Tatum and how upset you have been going through all her health problems. you know you have us all backing you up!

How weird is this? I'm so sorry that someone would put you through this emotional hell while your baby is sick. I don't know exactly who or what is going on but it sounds like some people have absolutely nothing better to do than to go very low to hurt others. :(

Please don't leave YT because of this as you are a wonderful asset to the forum as we are all telling you.

I'm sure you venting aint a problem here either!

Brooke you better NOT leave this Forum or I will come hunt you down . . gotta go so will PM you tonight :eek:

Gosh . . unbelievable!

Same here! We'll find you back if you leave! I sent you a PM!

I'm sorry to hear that somebody would actually come up with an idea like that. No doubt in my mind, they are filled with jealousy. Like many people have stated here, what goes around comes around, but more so 10x worse! If that member is reading this, you should be ASHAMED!!! how can somebody steep so darn low like that? I assure you that person is clearly jealous of how well you take care of your babies and they wanted to somehow ruin it all for you, but clearly they did not succeed. They should be embarrassed. I swear, I have no clue what more to say, but shame on that person. That's a very childish and inhuman act they've pulled and I hope to God they don't do it to anyone else.

I hope Tatum feels better!!! nobody is perfect, they are bound to come across these illnesses, you can't do nothing but care for them and try your best to make them feel all better. Anyways, hun, don't let this get to you too much there are sick, cruel and jealous people out there that will somehow boil your blood pressure up!!! the best thing you can do is show them that they are nothing but a low person who is seeking attention and satisfaction for their own sick pleasure. Stay strong & ignore--- keep taking good care of those babies--- you are doing a great job!!! :D :)

Damn. I knew we had some old biddies on here with no life, but that gives no-one the right to try and mess with yours - or ours. I've always admired Stedman and the thought of you being anything less than the perfect yorkie mom never entered my mind. I can't imagine what kind of imagination it took for someone else to come to that conclusion.

Girl, don't shed another tear over that b---h. Excuse my french, but she's not worth the time you've already wasted being upset.

Kiss the babies for us and I'm so glad the vet has made a diagnosis and she's on the mend. Don't let one bad apple spoil the whole bushel.

I don't know you personally but do understand the hurt, anger, heartache, betrayal & confusion this has caused you....try not to upset yourself, you did NOTHING wrong, the person who did this is most likely a hostile, evil, vindictive person & more deserving of our pity...you & your breeder know & understand the intent of the message she received...sadly, ugliness will always exist, we just have to learn how to handle it...give Tatum kisses ...I was sent this a while back, sad but true....

Gossip Poem
My name is Gossip.
I am a direct descendant of the father of lies.
I have no respect for justice.
I maim without killing.
I break hearts and ruin lives.
I am cunning and malicious and I gather strength with age.
The more I am quoted, the more I am believed.
My victims are helpless. They cannot protect themselves against me because I have no name and no face.

To track me down is impossible. The harder you try, the more elusive I become.
I am nobody’s friend.
Once I tarnish a reputation, it is never the same.
I topple governments and wreck marriages.
I ruin careers and cause sleepless nights, heartaches, and indigestion.
I make innocent people cry in their pillows.
I make headlines and headaches.
Even my name hisses. I am called Gossip.

Before you repeat a story, ask yourself:
Is it true?
Is it harmless?
Is it necessary?
If it isn’t, why repeat it?

WOW!!! Some people have alot of nerve don't they??? I don't get on here much, but I do remember a time a little while back when you did the Stedman is...... posts. I couldn't wait to check out your pics everyday when you put him in different costumes.
Don't worry about what one person thinks. I don't think there is one person here on YT who don't truly love there Yorkies. If we didn't we wouldn't be here.
Someone must just be jealous.
Your dogs are gorgeous.

I'm sorry you had to go through this. But as long as you know you're a WONDERFUL mommy that is all that matters. Keep your head up :)

Wow...that is just unbelievable. The nerve of some people is just ridiculous. I am glad you posted this on here so she can be ashamed of herself. This is just ridiculous! You are, as far as I'm concerned, one of the most utmost responsible and awesome YTers out there. I can tell that you spoil your furbabies MORE THAN ME!!! You love them to pieces, and it's sad that anyone would question that. Sorry you had to go through this, but I hope it will all clear up eventually. Give Tate and Stedman kisses :)

Brooke, I'm so sorry this is happening to you right now. I don't understand some people. How can someone be so cruel? Everyone here knows you take WONDERFUL care of your babies. I enjoy reading your posts and seeing pictures of Stedman and Tatum. I've always loved Stedy. I think he's the male version of morgan sometimes with the way they look so much alike.

Do not listen to the crap that this horrible person has said. She obviously has issues of her own.

Please don't leave TY. There are tons of people here who would miss you, sted and tate.

How Sick!!!!
 

Brooke, it is sad that some people feel the need to cause hurt to others for clearly no reason.

I dont reply much but read EVERYTHING! I have followed Tate's recent illness very closely because I have been fighting the same thing as you and it is horrible enough without someone doing this to you! I know you have cried as much as me and KNOW how special your babies are to you....

So, from all of us "horrible" mommy's, KEEP YOUR CHIN UP! You are super, your babies are beautiful! Dont let the turds get you down!

I know I, as many others, enjoy your posts... I come home all the time just looking for pics of your babies and even told my family once that there IS someone who spoils her babies more than me(Sted's mom).. hehe... I show them your pics all the time!

dont let someone "STUPID" take away something you love! I think this person should be BANNED.. (can we make a petition?)

Good Luck with your sick baby! We expect to continue to see your pretty babies!

HI

im on yt all the time and i dont know to many people by screen name or talk to people on a daily basis, but girl i see you on here all the time you are a regular and are constantly uploading tons of pics and you obviously love your pooches. and posting a pic of their pooh is very serious LOVE and CARING in my opinion. im sorry that someone is trying to bring you down, everything circles, around they will get their's who ever it may be.

Good luck with tatum and Chin up!!:)

Wow, I have been lurking more than posting lately, but I have read about your troubles with your little precious Tatortot.I am so glad you found out what is wrong and she is on the road to recovery. (kisses Tatum) I am also saddened and sorry that someone that is a member here would do something like that to you. You don't need to explain or prove that you love your babies to us here. You know and we know how much you love them, how can it not be obvious? I love Steddy and Tate pics!! (AprilLove especially likes Steddy pics:p :p ). And it makes me feel good to know that I am in the company of other people who treat their Yorkies as they would children!! Responding to this person that did this, well, in my opinion, its not even worth it. You have a good relationship with your breeder and she knows you and your mommyworthiness, thats all that matters.

Let it roll off your back, I know it probably hurts, but it just isn't worth it to give this person the time of day.

Oh man - there seems to be ALOT of bad stuff going on lately :( - I'm sorry ...I haven't had computer access all day and just saw this and wanted to say I'm sorry Brooke - you didn't need this on top of Tatum being sick.

I'm sorry this happened to you. In my experience (and I've had more than my fair share of gossipers at my old job) the people who start gossip usually have extremely low self esteem and a guilty conscience. It takes a weak, unhappy, bored person to start crap about someone else. I hate that you felt the need to justify your love for your furbabies. Of course you love them to pieces, it's very obvious and shines through in every post. Please, don't let this get you down. I'm with everyone else who has said they would miss you. Don't deprive those of us who appreciate your insight :hug:

I don't get what this person who called Tatum's breeder felt they had to gain. :confused:

Brooke, I am completely speechless right now.....:eek: . You have been one of the nicest people to me on here and I have always thought that you were one of the best mommies on here. It is very obvious how well you take care of your babies. How someone could do that to you is beyond me.....:thumbdown . Please don't leave because we all would miss you and we would definelty have Stedman and Tatum withdrawls.....:p

Please dont leave YT - like so many others I have read your posts, learned from them and enjoyed seeing your babies. Your leaving would only leave YT open to the ppl who do enjoy causing drama and gossip.

This forum needs to circle the wagons, draw the members in that are here to learn, enjoy, see the babies and share. Stop giving credit or thought to those that come here looking to dump their problems on someone else or cause a stir just to have something to do. If they dont get the attention they soon go away.

You know you're a good mommy to your babies - anyone that reads your posts or has interacted with you knows it too. Don't allow this person to cause you one moment of pain - you keep doing what you know is right and let this person stew in their own ugliness.

I cannot believe anyone on this board who has any inkling of what kind of caring person you are would even think to contact Tatum's breeder!!!!!! Please, please, please do not leave. I've never met you in person, but I feel like I "know" you at least a little and really like what I do know. And, it just wouldn't be the same without Steddy and Tatum!!

Sending bigs hugs to you, Brooke!!!!

I'm so sorry you're having to go through this. Please don't leave YT...we'd all miss you!

OMG the nerve!!!! :eek:

I don't know what I'd do. I'd be an emotional wreck too. Please know that we're all behind you though Brooke and even if your breeder DIDN'T already know that this is a big stinkin' pile of lies, you'd have a list a thousand names long to show her of those of us who think you're one of the best yorkie mommys around!

Kisses to Steddy and Tater-tot!

Report the Incident to Admin
 

I hope your breeder was or will be willing to give the name of the person who contacted her. If it were me I would report this person to the YorkieTalk Admin and copy our cherished moderator Kim (aka simonandhallie).

I am sending hugs and more hugs -- I am so very sorry..... :ghug:

Wow! This is crazy!!!:eek: Everything I am thinking has already been said but I am so sorry you have been hurt like this. Pettiness is very ugly. Whatever this person's agenda was, it has obviously backfired. Your breeder didn't believe her and you've got an entire board of yorkie lovers backing you. We all know the truth- you are an AWESOME yorkie mommy!

:yeahthat:
You are being very nice by not bringing this person's name into this publicly but I definitely think it should be brought to the attention of admin and Kim- nobody should feel like they can use YT to get away with this kind of foolishness.
