Exclamation Please Give Feedback on My Yorkie Site!!! :)

Hello, All!

My name is Dante and I LOVE my Yorkies!! I have 3 Yorkies; Daisy, Fancy, and Henry. Fancy and Henry aren't here yet (I just bought them), they will be here the beginning of April, so right now, Daisy is my teacup baby!

I have opened up an online Yorkie clothing store (it's still under construction) and I am looking for any feedback. I have been reading this board for months before finally registering today to post. I figure no one knows these products betetr than you guys!

Anyway, my site has not been professionally designed yet, it is just basic right now, but a lot of the products are there. I see that you all love a great bargain. I have been looking for manufacturers that sell the items cheaper to retailers..

Well, if you'd take a look and give me some feedback, I would surely appreciate it. Please be honest, because it is so important to me. I only sell items that I would dress my baby in.

Here's my site: Yorkie Couture

Default Great!!!

You have the cutest website!!! I especially like the furniture. The website technically is easy to navigate and pleasing to the eye. I like how you actually show the doggies in the clothes, it is frustrating to just see the outfits. Your site makes me want to save all my money and buy new everything for my babies Welcome to YorkieTalk, Kimberly

One thing I noticed on several items is that length, width, etc are in metric. A confused mind says "no." I would suggest converting the metric to inches on each item for the consumer.

The site is truly awesome especially if you didn't have a pro to design it for you.

I'm very impressed. For not having been professionally done, it is one of the better sites I have seen! I agree, converting to inches would be very helpful as that is how most of us have already measured our pets.

I love that green carrier! Very cute and now so girlish as a lot that I see I also love the Rhinestone Lumina hoodie!

And I also agree, we would LOVE to see pictures of your yorkies! And it's always helpful to have all clothes modeled by a dog so we can see the fit and fall of the clothes on. Great job!

The site is great and the things are beautiful, but I would love to see a place where you could buy pretty beds that regular people like me could afford without your husband sending you to the looney farm. I love it I just can't afford it. I will have to make it myself I guess. I do hope you do well and I am sure you will, there are a bunch of people out there with the big bucks.

Animal Smiley 036 Thanks, everyone!!

I am taking all of that into consideration!

The funny thing is: I had all doggies modeling the items and i CHANGED it, becaue most people DON'T do that on their sites and I thought that was better!!

hahahah! I will change it back, then...once I regain my sanity from changing them the 1st time (it only took 5 hours!! )... I will also convert to inches, I thought that would be easier, that is how I get measurements from the manufacturers (in cm's)..

How do I post my pictures?? I have LOTS of pic of my baby, Daisy and my lil angel, Lily, who passed away last month. I actually don't have my Fancy and Henry yet, Henry will be here on April 15th (if all goes well). I bought him from a top breeder in Brazil, but I am already in love with him! I will post his picture from the breeder. Fancy won't be here until Thursday and I am sooooo excited!!! I have a few pictures of her, too. Fancy is 1.5 years old and Henry is 54 weeks...

So...how do I post pictures??

..... I do have a ton more doggie beds to list on my website...cute ones under $100, I promise! I just prefer clothing over beds, so I added all clothing first. I am still scouting for super cheap clothing, because I LOVE to buy dog clothing all day long...so the cheaper, the better! All of that will be coming very soon (within a month), so please check back. I have a designer that makes cute doggie clothing and we are negotiating prices at this time.

What kind of doggie clothing would you guys like to see? I hate how expensive a lot of dog clothing is, because they have...coats for $59-$99 and dreses for...$80...! I rarely (if ever) spend that much per item on myself!!! I actaully even cut my prices lower than manufacturer's suggested retail prices, because I would not pay those prices! I won't price anything on my site higher than I, myself would pay for the item. There are a few items in which I have no control over the price because the manufacturer is charging so much, but the item is so irresistible that I have to sell it! More affordable items to come!

What else was I asked...?? Oh, you guys, I LOVE your puppy pics! How'd you get them small enough to make them your... whatever it was called that has to be 75 pixels x 75 pixels...

Just so you all know, I am Yorkie crazy! I have devoted my credit cards to building up my Yorkie clothing closet and am having a custom wardrobe built for my Yorkie baby's clothing!!! If it turns out well, I will be selling them on my site (kind of like the one that is featured, but not sooooooo expensive!!). I believe that every Yorkie should have his/her own closet! : )

My favorite hobby at the moment is dressing up my Daisy and taking pictures of her! I will post them if you tell me where!

Well, thanks for welcoming me, I hope I answered more than all of your questions and that you are still awake after reading thus far into this post! I have watched this board for months and was timid to post. Now I am glad that I did!

In closing... I just wan tto thank you all for such a warm welcome, you are all so friendly and warm. I appreciate that immensely!

Here is a quick guide to posting pictures...
http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1994

For your avatar (the one that shows up by our names) just open your graphic editing program and use the crop tool. Set it to 75x75 pixels, then crop. If you need any help, let me know

It's great that you're looking for inexpensive clothing, I always appreciate a good bargin! I'm a sale hunter! Can't wait to see what you add to your site, I've bookmarked it!

Again, welcome to Yorkie Talk!

What would we like to see in clothing?

BOY DOG CLOTHES!!! I know there is so much more for female dogs because the dresses are abundant and cute but we're rather limited on male dog clothes. If you come across something, please, please include it!

thanks for asking or opinions . . .
nice site!!! goodluck with your business and your 3 yorkies *can't wait to see pics of them all*!!!

i have to agree with Carter'sMom, there's hardly ever enough cute BOY outfits on most sites. I myself would like to see more boy things like little sports jerseys and team logo sweaters and jackets etc.!!!

I totally agree, Carter's Mom!

I know there's gotta be a huge market for boy doggy clothes, and yes, I know there's a zillion cute items for Yorkie girls, that's great as well!

Animal Smiley 036 Boy Clothing!!

Boy clothing is on the list!
I just have my girl right now, so I went for all boy clothing, first. Thanks for your input, I am going to make 2 categories: Boy Clothing and Girl Clothing, that way mommies of boys won't have to sort thru the girle stuff... Would that be better?

Some stuff is Unisex, so I can list it under both. I DO have boys clothing... I still have about 50-100 more items to add to my site, so please visit again soon. Tonight I will begin inserting boy clothing. Then, if the Momies that have boys will give feedback, I would so appreciate it.

You gusy are SO awesome, this is a better way to build my site (with your suggestions). I want the new design (coming soon) to be more professional, but I don't want it to be too graphic-y. That way, our Yorkie moms (and dads) with slower internet connections can still access my site and shop!

Anyway, I will post my babies tonight! Boy clothin: logo wear, etc., will be posted tonight! I don't know how much I will be able to post, but I promise 10 biy items or MORE!

Daisy says "BYE"!!
