Hello Cate welcome here. Sorry to hear you had to go true such an ordeal. I learned that you have to be very carefull in what to share in groups and what not depending on the country and believes. Until now I have never encountered a problem here. I don't write a lot as I also live abroad in Belgium and many food products, meds, shelters and law issue's are unknown to me. But I hope you will feel welcome here. --- On Sat, 5/14/11, Cate <[email protected]> wrote:
From: Cate <[email protected]> Subject: [Chihuahuas] at last! a membership To: [email protected] Date: Saturday, May 14, 2011, 11:19 AM Hi my name is Cate, I reside in Australia and proudly own 3 purebred chihuahuas. I have had rather a bad experience trying to join a previous yahoo group in the recent week, was harrassed by the moderator because she didnt like my answers on the pending membership form..which included a new litter of pups and an intact male (which has now been neutered) I was blamed and shamed and hounded literally even to the point where the moderator was going to contact my place of work where she tracked me down on facebook...all this has left me bewildered as to what the groups actually stand for..I thought sharing experiences and gaining knowledge would be the framework of a group of this nature. We do not have a high rate of dumping in the country town where i reside nor in the bigger capital cities of our state.. All I want to do is to join a group and learn and share information on this highly individual breed..thank you
