I think Pet Talk is going through a "dry spell" in a way. It seems like it always gets like this around this time of the year. There are periods when people have more time to post, and there are times when they don't. People are busy with the holidays right now.

For me personally I haven't felt like posting because Pet Talk just hasn't seem that inviting to me right now. It could just be my mood, but the general atmosphere hasn't been that pleasant to me. That's why I stopped posting for a while. I have still browsed the forum and I have enjoyed the pictures I just have not been able to bring myself to post. Usually I do try to reply to the majority of the picture threads, at least in dog general.
