My company has a rewards program, where you can earn points and buy stuff. The web site that you use had Yorkie-Poos for sale! I protested to both the awards site (no response so far) and my HR person. It has been escalated to Vice President of benefits. My company takes animal welfare very seriously, and it looks like it's putting its money where it's mouth is.

What on earth is a Yorkie poo ????
Is that something you pick up off the grass in central park with a doggy do bag ???
Sorry, never heard of a Yorkie poo.

I'm glad you took a stand, and even happier that they're doing something about it. YAY!

A Yorkie-poo is half Yorkshire Terrier and half toy poodle. In other words, an "accident". :rolleyes:
