Why doesn't Yahoo fix their Search for Questions that doesn't work!?

I just answered a question on a Great Pyrenees (dog) that was posted within the last 24 hours. I saw another question and tried to search to find it. Search didn't show me ANY yahoo question with the word "Great Pyrenees" in them, so I did advanced search and searched for an open question within the last 7 days with the text Great Pyrenees in the question.

I wasn't even shown the question I just finished answering, so the search engine for questions with specified text in them does NOT work at ALL. The ONLY responses I got were to sites OUTSIDE Yahoo Answers! The answer page stated there were NO messages that matched my criteria at Yahoo Answers! WRONG! I just answered one today, and several that are still open within the last 3 days.

Why doesn't the search for questions work?

When will Yahoo figure it out and fix this error?

    Hi! I know what you mean. Yahoo is very hard to get a hold of no matter what it concerns. Even with their games. You can try to email them from the help section. If it's not about seaching click into something else anyway.That is what I had to do. I got a reply and saved it so I had the email to get back to them for anything that went wrong.

    I have a Great Pyrenees. I don't think it was my question. I am going to ty and see what I can come up with and I will get back to you.
