| Please keep me posted on the possible Adopt A Thon, I will definitely go and get one or two. I live only 2 hrs from there, and have been checking the Hillsborough Shelter daily for yorkies even prior to hearing of this. My heart goes out to all these precious babies.

| You know what's funny? When I first joined YT, I chose that little "group Hug" as part of my signature. If you look at it, I'm hugging 5, but right now I have just three Yorkies....mmm, see I'll have to take two, LOL. I'd say that's a pretty good "sign" of what I have to do, right?

| What do you think? I am thinking about getting another Yorkie for a companion for my Snickers. I live in Ct though and don't want the poor dogs to be any more traumatized?? |

| Wonderful news! Wanted to let everyone know some wonderful news!!! I work for a VERY large nationwide law firm (over 450 attorneys and countless staff) and I just got approval to host a "denim day" to raise money for these yorkies!!! It is taking place on June 26 (which happens to be Bring your Dog to work day!) and I am asking a minimum of a $5.00 donation and then the employees who donate get to wear jeans on that day! Every cent of the money collected is going to help this yorkies. I thought everyone would love to know! Wish me luck! xoxo--Sarah & Maddy |

| Yorkies need our help What a wonderful idea! I have just gotten off the phone with Officer Davis from Hillsborough County Animal Services. Here is what she told me. The mother/son that were busted have retained an attorney to fight to keep these Yorkies. God only knows why. If they hadn't fought to keep them, the babies could of been up for adoption within the week, but with the "fight on", it could be several weeks until they are adoption ready if at all. Hillsborough County residents are given first choice. If there are any left after county residents have had a crack at adoption, then outside residents (like me in a different county) will be able to adopt. I have downloaded my application for adoption and getting a letter from my vet stating my other three are spayed/vac/licensed, so I will be ready if one or two are able to come my way. In the mean time, Officer Davis says it's going to take alot of $ to take care of these little darlings. Quite a few are sickly, parasites, mal nourished, etc. So...... I have a invitation to every YT member to send $1.00 (or more) if you're able to, any amount helps. Here's how to Donate: Make check or money order payable to: Hillsborough County Animal Services and in the memo area write: Donation Fund-Yorkies, Yorkie Talk.com Member Mail it to: Hillsborough County Dept of Animal Services P.O. Box 89159 Tampa, Fl 33689-0402 LET'S SHOW 'EM WHAT WE'RE MADE OF!!!!!! THANKS IN ADVANCE

This is exactally what I mean. These two horrible people should be told: You had your chance to care for these helpless dogs and you failed. Sorry, they now belong to us! Period. Here's your fine, pay now or go directly to jail! No instead the law will pussy foot around for another couple weeks when these little ones could be in a home getting the care that's due them. Throw these two in jail. How dare they be allowed to get an attorney and possibly get these poor animals back. Makes me sick! Your awsome for doing your part to help these poor little ones. |
