  I know I'm a newbie and I'm glad I found this site... I won't get my puppy for another 3 weeks when she is 12 weeks. As I read posts I too become anxious about some of the comments the more experience make towards others. With that said, I take ownership for my anxious feelings. After all, this is written word and the only person who can put a tone to them is the reader. I do realize that there is so much passion and love for our fur family. However, I think it would be prudent (in some cases) to ask clarifying questions before being accusatory. Sometimes (rescues, poor doggie situations) it is best for the dog to get out of their situation and not wait the 12 weeks. As I read, I'm finding that some assume then have to backtrack and apologize. I guess what I'm trying to say is learn the full story first.  |
