    How Did You Discover Pet Talk?

    I have always wondered !!

    How did you find this wonderful forum??

    I found it by accident. My sister told me about a strange "monkey" in someones car. The owner of the monkey told her what "kind" it was, and , she forwarded an e-mail to me.

    Yes, it was one from "Pet of the Day"--

    I called her, telling her, Hey!!! There is also a Cat of the Day, and , A , Dog of the Day!!!!


    Anyway, I used to just click onto, "Dog of the Day", (in my favorites ) but, never clicked onto "Pet Talk" , UNTIL, My daughter -in-law , encouraged me to register!!!!

    Oh well, the rest is History!!!!!! I am addicted !!!!!!

    I honestly don't remember.
    I think.. it might of been DOTD, and me submitting Ethan as an entry, maybe. Then finding the forums soon after.
    I'm very unsure about that, though...

    Just browsing dog breed pictures in google and I kept finding a bunch with a thing in the corner saying dog of the day
    so being curious I ventured into the PT world.

    It started a couple of years or so ago when my mom wanted a new home page for her computer.

    I did a search on "Cat Pictures", and up came a picture of COTD - a wee kitten who had died very very young after being saved...she was SO cute!

    That led to finding Cat of the Day, and Mom loves it.

    It was a while before I ventured into Pet Talk...I remember Gary's vivid siggy and wondering just who this whole bunch was!

    Just animal crazy people like me!

    My sister Carollyn (amoore) told me about it. As soon as I visited, I joined that very day. It didn't take long for me to see that I loved this place and the people here.

    I was looking at Toller pictures a few years ago, and happened to come across one that was DOTD at some point. A few weeks later, I clicked the "talk about today's dog in Pet Talk" link and joined a while after that.

    I found pet talk when a friend from the dogpark posted some pictures and a little story about my Rosie, who had just died after being hit by a truck. I was deeply touched by the kind words everyone put on that thread, even though no one knew me. This site was truly a comfort in a time of pain and despair for me.
    Since then, I've been pretty regular reader and sometimes poster. I do feel especially blessed to live in a town where there are Pet Talk picnics several times a year. It is so cool to meet these dogs & people in person! Thanks, Paul & Karen!

    I found it through google, some years back, when I was like 10. Since, the rules said you have to be 13 to legally join I chose to wait. I joined a day after my 13th birthday.
