Something I wanted to say

[Pembroke_Corgi]

I agree that one of the nice things about Pet talk is that we get to share ideas, stories, and photos with people from all over the globe.

And, I can see how sometimes, people have a tendency to be a bit egocentric. I know Americans have a particular reputation for that, so if anything, instances where it may be true may do little but confirm a stereotype. I know you are not suggesting that, but there are many Americans in real life and on pet talk that value other cultures and other ways of doing things...I actually think people who seem to be intolerant on this board are in the minority but perhaps more vocal.

Great post!

There is good and bad in every country and different rights and wrongs all over the world....

Miss Z,

I have just finished reading the thread you referred to in the original post.
(all 7 pages of it) I wanted to say I do understand what you meant now.

I think is is remarkable to hear such a mature, thoughtful post from one
of our younger members & I applaud you for it. A lot of our adult members
could learn a lot about style & grace from you.

I couldn't agree more. I have just re-read the entire thread myself.

Zara, as others have said, you are an amazing young woman. I admire you greatly. I would love to meet you sometime
