Granted, I don't discuss piddle pads or hair products on those boards.
LOL! I know you belong to one I do (I actually forgot to include that one in my first post, so I guess I belong to 3 other dog forums) and I'm not big on the food one anymore. Sometimes I find the people entirely too pushy and "all kibble is BAD!" attitudes.

Also because of different categories there is literally something for everyone here.

Before I got my Yorkie, I never thought one way or the other about dressing dogs up. Sure a coat and booties for cold weather, that sort of thing. It's not a choice I would make for my dog, but if others want to do it, why not? Some of the clothes I've seen are really quite beautiful, and the Yorkies show just how much time and attention they get. That is what is important to me, the love I see here that our members lavish on their pups.

Some of the posters here have amazing videos, some do great trick training with their pups, some do agility etc. I think that is what makes the community so rich, it's diversity.

And the passion and the caring, and the support I see in the Sick and Emergency section is truly inspiring.
