I was browsing the "New Posts" and came across someone looking for a home for their yorkie, due to health issues. We just moved into TV and are previous owners of a yorkie in Michigan. I got all excited, thinking this would be a perfect match for us. I was very disappointed in reading the article a second time noting it had been posted in May of 2009!! What the heck!! Can't someone link an expiration into this software? Also, when items are SOLD they aren't removed. Any explanation why?

I just looked at that post and it was dated March 27, 2014. The person who posted it joined in 2009. You may wish to check again to verify,

The posting was from 3/27/2014. The date of May 2009 that you referenced is the date when the original poster joined TOTV.

The above posters are right. The Yorkie post is recent and they are still looking for a home for their dog. It would be wonderful if you could take the dog.

Welcome! Welcome aboard. I hope it is the beginning of many happy years here and many happy years with a new dog in your life. It is a little hard to get the hang of everything on the forum, but you'll get use to it in no time! I'm glad you've joined us.

No one has taken the Yorkie yet so please go back to the Yorkie post and inquire about the dog. We are hoping this dog finds a good home and you seem to be the right person. Good luck.

I have found that all items in the classifieds disappear after 30 days, sold or not. Sellers are advised to ask Admin to put SOLD in their heading. Not many do.

I. too, was upset when I read about the couple who needed to find a home for their Yorkie. I would have jumped right on it except we are at the maximum for Village pets.

Please, Jangolfs17, I hope it's you who gives a forever home to this little pup. And if you do so, please let us all know. You would be bringing many smiles to many faces.
