Is it just me?

I felt like that too for awhile. I started by sharing stuff about my
RB dog Buddy. He was quite a dog.

Just jump right in & post on anything you like. Welcome to PT.

I lurked for a few years but once I joined, I felt like I already knew everybody and I jumped right in with both feet.. Jump right on in, the more you post, the better we get to know you!

Hi Irene You post away sweetie! You won't find a more welcoming and caring bunch of people in the world

Hi Irene. Many of us feel a bit like strangers at times, even those of us who have been around from the very beginning. It is much harder now because Pet Talk is so big and it is hard to keep track of who is who at times. Just remember that this is a forum and by its very nature when a thread is posted, it is open to anyone and everyone who wants to comment. So if you have something to say, type away. You have to be a little thick skinned too and not take it personally if no one seems to *notice you*. Many of us have only a limited time to devote to the board so we might only be able to read a few threads and probably reply to less than that.

Anyway, I'm going to go check out Louie's Dog of the Day page right now.

I think we all felt that way when we first joined. Welcome to PT!! My name is Terry andI'm proud Mom of Daisy and Delilah-2 Chihuahuas.

I would really follow what Rachel said. Try to be a little thick skinned. Don't let it bother you if you don't get tons of replies to a thread. Just try not to take anything personally. This is an unbelievable community here. I've never seen anything like it. Just try to reply and comment to as many threads as you can, post more pictures than I do , PM people to make friends, and just take a general interest in all of the happenings and pets. You'll feel welcome very soon.

Irene, it looks like you've already gotten a lot of great advice so I have nothing to add except...Welcome This is a great community and I think your going to fit right in.

Oh, and Louie is a doll! I just read your post in Dog Health about him and I do hope that he starts feeling better.
