I want to go to the specialty to enjoy. can I bring my will be 5 month old yorkie girl with me to enjoy the shows? She is a tiny and very quiet.My show days are over. I hung my hat up in 1982 when I finished my 2nd owner handler champion male/wildweir lines. Vicki formerly vviccles1 2007-2009 |

thanks for the questions, I had all of this in mind. My yorkie's breeder had mentioned that she will be in NY for the shows so I promised to drop by. I live in NYC so it's very convenient. I'm very excited to go too. |

What are you talking about? I'm the one who took the picture with NO names, NO face!! Everyone was laughing, but I'm the only one who is trying politely to let handler know, that people are watching! |
Elle Believe me! Everyone who cares and was there (including myself) knows who that person is... Please don't make me revile her name... |

*** Still don't understand what you are talking about... Sorry! I'll be at Westminster tomorrow! If you have something to say to me feel free! Still I think I'm very fair with no names showing the picture that can be taking at such important show... to me seeing such a "Kodak moment" is disrespectful for the show! |

I don't get into that. It's childish, women should be looking after one another. If anyone wanted to help that handler they should just TELL her. It would've been fine to tap her & let her know. How would we feel if our coin slot was on the internet? Even if she didn't pass the mirror test prior to going in the ring, give her a break. I'm surprised people watched her instead of the yorkies. We all have different reasons for being there. |

still no names no faces... just an example... Enjoy... Hopefully one day U'll thank someone like me... |

It isn't cool for any women to do this to another women. It's really not helping one another. |

Something is wrong with a women that even photographs such. |

Thank you, doctor :D :animal-pa |

Not everyone was in back of her. There are many people that did not know this was going on. There is friendly competition in showing in showing & then there is jealously. I'm sorry but this isn't acceptable. You know exactly who this is and why would you know who someone is and spread photos of them on the internet like this? You said everyone. How many people? You seem empowered & gloating with this. Would you like to elaborate? Why would you like to meet up with me? |
I tried to stay out of this....but I can't leave it alone. I have absolutely *no idea* who this person is (in the the deleted picture, which is in the deleted post), nor do I have any idea what her reputation is in the exhibitor community - nor does her reputation matter to me, whether it is good, bad, or in between - in this instance. My opinion is that, bc the person posting the picture said "everyone knows who this is in this picture" - makes the posting of the picture entirely inappropriate and downright mean :(. If an analogy is needed....this (to me) would be like if I'd attended a YT meetup last weekend, and snapped a similar picture...and posted it here - knowing full well (as well as stating the fact) that "everyone knows whose picture this is!". If anyone disagrees w/ my opinion of this, that's your prerogative....but in my opinion - this was mean. Intentionally mean, as far as I can tell. I don't understand that kind of intention at all. :thumbdown |

I just wanted to add that there is a huge stress level at these shows for the handlers and owners who work so hard all year long and from a woman-to-woman perspective I would have completely ignored it and thought nothing of it even if I had seen it. :) I'm sure most of us were concentrating on the beautiful dogs, nothing more. |
If it had been me sitting as a spectator and that close to an exhibitor, I'd have politely tapped her on the shoulder and whispered in her ear as to what was being revealed. |

Btw, although this is a public forum, it does have RULES. One of them is that members refrain from denigrating YorkieTalk. |
WELL, I was there and all I can say is..........."OOOOHHHH what beautiful Yorkies" I can say I was probably one of the most observant people in the gallery. I watched and took notes and took video of the Yorkies and handlers. If I watched a handler it was in an effort to learn their techniques and see what they used on the coats. I learned soooo much and it was such an incredible experience. What someone wore did not even come to mind unless I was admiring a little bling on a jacket. I think our focus should be the Yorkies and handler's abilities. There were some fantastic handlers. I was impressed!;) |

Congratulations on your win.....nothing like placing in the ribbons at the National. One needs to learn that there is more than just showing your dog. There are written and unwritten rules for being a good spectator too (especially if you are also an exhibitor). Taking a picture of someone in a not so favorable light (even it names weren't mentioned or faces revealed) at a National Specialty is not a way to ingratiate yourself in the Dog World and it will not be forgotten easily. I've already received calls from YTCA members asking me about it. |
Thanks Mary. It's been so much fun showing this little boy, I'll almost be sorry to see him finish. |

She was wearing a shirt under her jacket, it was the same color. The same material as a turtleneck. Although you couldn't see a turtleneck. They were pink or coral. Probably red, the picture is quality was poor. The jacket was quilted. I think we see a lot of red & black. But not much red on red or pink/pink or coral/coral. If it wasn't red. She was a petite nicely dressed women. |
Elle, OK you won! lol Looks like I have no voice here... Mnneee...Who knew we have no freedom of speech here... Anyhow! This is the reason I got blocked (with a lowbrow) and I don't think I should come back... I believe we live in a free and liberated country. This is an unaltered image and something that I saw and cared to share. "Don't shoot the messenger." The woman chose to dress like this and show her butt crack. I merely documented it. Since when did this become a communist forum? My best wishes! |

REally it is quite simple would you want your butt displayed for all to see on a public forum? Why would you care to share this? The immediate reason that comes to my mind is to humilate a show person, under the guise of perhaps humor? I hardly think the woman chose to show her butt crack!. I have personally slipped and fell in the show ring.. I've seen woman who had inadvertenly had their skirt hiked up ... and in that case she was quietly informed about it by.. another show exhibitor in the ring with her. I went into a ring once with my front zipper undone and the show steward again discreetly let me know that. Good grief , showing is hard enough in itself, mistakes happen, no-one expects that their errors would be showcased for all to see. I can only hope perhaps forlornely that you have got the message. The gratuitious portrayal of another's mistake in any venue is not an acceptable action. |

I was born in "communist" country... By moving in the US I thought it's over and I do have a freedom of speech... I'm not trying to offend anyone! I'm just a messenger! I truly don't understand what is going on, but kind of feel hurt... Thank you for your understanding. :animal-pa |
