Thread: How did you originally find PT?

  1. #1

    How did you originally find PT?

    A friend of mine showed me the POTD site because her horse was POTD that day. I was like "COOL!" and submitted Josie. I was pretty impatient (), so I wanted to know why she hadn't been chosen yet, so I joined PT to ask that...then I think people asked about my dogs and I got hooked from there. I remember Sandra (tatsxxx1 *sp*) was the first person to help me out and ask about my pets...hehe! I think I joined in dec, right before my 16th bday...around 5 years ago I guess.

    Several years ago, someone posted on a basset hound forum about her dog being the Dog of the Day. Then, I found the link to Pet Talk. Ironically, I'm not on the basset forum all that much anymore.

    Paul and I founded Pet Talk! But it's always interesting to hear how others found it!

    My mom was the one who actually found it. She got a lot of different dog-related sites and emailed them to me. Dog of the Day was on there so everyday i would look at the new DOTD, and then I finally saw the Forum icon. I joined and have been hooked since.

    I was just browsing for dog forums one day and was looking for one in particular that had a name that very similar but stumbled upon PT instead. Needless to say I never did find what ever that other one was. lol

    A friend had entered her dog in an online dog photo contest, but I could not remember which one, so I Googled dog photo contest, and Dog of the Day showed up. I lurked for about a week, then joined, and a few days later I started posting and haven't shut up since.

    I had entered a picture of Kyra in a dog of the week contest somewhere, and I was trying to find it and happened to stumble across this site instead (I never did refind the other one!) I would visit DOTD, POTD and COTD religiously and one day I was EXTREMELY bored so I started clicking on the links and happened to stumble across Pet talk...I hadn't ever seen it before But I registered and just started posting!
