Your very first post?

I thought it would be interesting to see everybody's "first post" on pet talk. We can see how much we have changed since joining!

If you don't know how to find it, go to "search" (at the top) then search under your user name...and, depending on how long you've been a member, choose the dates.....for me, I chose "one year ago" and then "and older." :)

It will show you threads that you have posted in, but I think it would be better if you found the actual first thread that you *made.* And if that thread is different from your *introduction* thread (if you have one), post the intro thread too.....and any other interesting threads you may find in your search...;)

Here's me, at 16, sounding like a total and complete moron (hasn't changed though, has it? lol)...

*Pet Portraits*
And here's when I began posting again after my long absence....heh...
Remember Amy?

Fun!! My very first thread was about bathing Noah: Bathing Cats

Toys

And yep! Sara will still bounce toys off the trampoline with her nose! :)

My very first post was 19th of January 2002, 3 days after I joyned - it was in this thread:

Save more cats

I'm not a prolific poster, nor a "chat" person, just a lover of cats.
This was my first post under my own name. Before that I used to
hide behind Randi and let her take the blame! :D

My first posts were all about Cincy's health. Poor pup had a rough start to life. He's my first

Mine was an introducion thread. I changed a lot, i think. I always wrote in smaller font. That's so weird :confused: Anyway, my first actual thread is here:
My dumb question about changing your profile

Mine was commenting on Steinway (POTD). It's pretty messed up because I couldn't figure out the font-color-size thing lol.
Steinway

mine was does your dog chase its tail!:p

Wow for me it has only been a couple of months and I posted about raised water bowls for dogs first but I realized I never introduced myself.I think I will do that.I won't do it here I will post a topic but thanks for making me look back.
Laurie :rolleyes: :confused:

My first reply was on one of your threads wolf_Q! It was about dog fancy, which at the time I had just switched over from that message board. :eek:

Dog Rescue Crisis in Indiana
There is desperate need in Cass County Indiana at the Humane Shelter. They have arrested a man that had almost 50 dogs that are being abused. They look starved on the email I received and they said that some have heartworm and almost all of them have mange. Most will be at the shelter until at least Feb 27,2001 when the moron owner goes to trial. They are in need of cash and supplies as far as I can tell.
If you're interested in helping I have the girl's name and email address for further information. It is:
Cami and the email is [email protected]


That was my first post on Dec 1, 2000 at 8:33 am in Dog Rescue and I started the thread

Ok, this is wierd....I did the search for my first post and discovered, that in all actuality, I have been here since 6/26/2000 at 8:49am as Kendall2 and the alterego has 38 posts! lol

So, here's my true first post..

Hi,

My husband and I have 4 dogs, 2 full breeds and 2 mixed. Our 2 full breeds came from our local shelter. We have a 10 month old blue merle Great Dane whose name is Jasmine, a 2-4 year old Australian Sheperd named Shawna, a 2 year old 3/4 Australian 1/4 German Sheperd named Sox, and a 1.5 year old 1/2 Husky 1/2 Pitbull (another maligned breed). I really have no preference between full and mixed breeds. I have read however, that mixed breeds tend to be healthier. I am another person who feels that Rotties and Dobies have gotten a raw deal. They are only mean if they are trained that way...just like the pits. For the most part they are loving devoted part of the family.

My first post was almost 4 months after I joined. Millie


I started my first thread about the same time and it was about Stats
What else:) :)

My first post was a reply to Chase (dotd) 1-24-2001) Although I had been lurking for a while deciding if I wanted to join in .

All I remember is that is was in response to a pet of the day that was a bunny.:D

My first post was THE first post - ah, the benefits of being the founders! Logan already linked to it in her post earlier in this thread, the Dogs Who Lean thread!

It won't let me find myfirst post under my user name, it says no matches were found. :confused:

You don't have to do a serach, you can click on your won prfile, say "Find all posts by this user," then scroll to the bottom of the "Last" page.

Which is what I did to find your first post, which is here

haha that post is so funny. It says she placed 6 times, in the PET class lol! She is not show quality by any means, but a great girl with a sweet temperament. I tried to get some new pics of the kitties yesterday but couldn't. I wish I rescued Bengals still, but with my rattery now I am very busy. *sigh* Of course I wouldn't turn one down though, hehe.

ah how sad it is for me t read about my pets that have passed on to rainbow bridge. My poor Peanut and my two parakeets. :( Funny how names change too.....I thought for sure Speedy was going to stray Guiness, but well, he reminded me so muchof my old Speedy and I just had to keep him with Speedy. I guess I never posted an introduction..but I am still searching.

This is so cool! I can go back and get old pics that have been erased accidently and I never thought I could ever get them back until now! God bless PT!:D

The thread was Big Dogs!

Big dogs rule!! I have two rescued German Shepherd Dogs-1 male, 110lbs. and 1-female, 95lbs. I've also owned a Great Pyr and another large-boned GSD!

My first post was about my kitty Daisy (RB) who had vaccine-induced sarcoma. In honor of her memory, I want to remind all cat owners to be sure and discuss the issue of vaccines with their vet. The issue may not be the actual vaccine, but the placement of the injection!

We sure have had a lot of our fur friends go to the bridge since I joined in 2000 - but we have also had so many wonderful new pets join our group! Hurray for old and new!

I started posting when we went throught that dreadful episode of Malone's eating a ton of rocks!! I was soooooo scared!! This was my first post:

Strange diet
I am at my wit's end, and I am hoping that somebody out there can help me. We have a four month old yellow puppy whom we love most dearly! Unfortunately he has this obsession with ROCKS! Unless you supervise him 110% of the time, he is bound and determined to eat as many as he possibly can. He was in puppy day care last week, and ended up eating about 30 of them,--X-rays show that he has only one left in him. Is this something he will grow out of (SOON!), or is there some way to cure him of this awful habit? I am so afraid that next time it will be much worse and we can't afford many more vet bills like the ones we had this past week. Any advice would be helpful, and thank you so much for taking the time to respond!!

I joined in May and my first post was in the Tell Me Something about your Cat thread about a month later. Must've prompted me to not be so shy! It took me ages to start a new thread as I didn't introduce myself - probably a bit late now :)

Mugsy I remember Kendall2 with only 4 dogs my oh my how we all have grown since then. I have 2 dog not 1 2 cats not 1 2 rabbits not 1 . You have grown the most though. Glad to hear all are happy and healthy.

My first post was on the heated discussion,
Purebreds & Why People Buy Them

Here it is:

Hi there... newbie jumping into the fray here...

Although in many instances a mutt would be all any family
or person needs. Let's not forget that a lot of dogs unlike
cats are bred for more than being a companion of leisure.
They're bred to be man's companion in work.

I someday in the near future plan on having a farm and
I want a specific type working dog with me on that farm.
From my research, I'm leaning towards a Bernese Mountain
Dog. The breeding of purebreds for specific reasons is why
I'm able to figure out what dog would fit my specific need.
Now I have every intention of looking at a shelter first to
find that breed or a breed with a majority of that mixture.
But if we eliminate purebreds, how would I ever know if I'm
getting the right dog for my circumstance? I'm sure there's
many a blind person who's mighty glad for the breeding of
goldens, labs and german shepards.

Par...

I'm not on the farm yet and I ended up with a Collie vs a
Bernese Mountain Dog. I did look at rescues and shelters
for months, but a Smooth Coated Collie puppy was impossible to
find.

My first thread : New Here

That's when I first got Scout and had only 4 ferrets and 1 kitty, now I have 5 ferrets and 3 kitties and that post was only from last July!

I haven’t been on this forum long, just since 3rd September 2002. It took me a whole month, before I managed to post anything.

Then I introduced my cat, George.
