Hopefully, your stay here will be permanent, and not just "for the time being".....there is a wealth of knowledge, given with concern and interest and compassion and love and grace. If a post is worded in a way you are not able to learn from or benefit from, skip over it, rather than taking it as a personal assault! When a topic is addressed with a negative response, such as puppy mills, specific breeding facilities, methods of shipping/transporting pets, different methods of doing things in different ways, certain registeries, etc, the information shared is to inform a poster of an aspect they may not have been aware of, and not an attack on the poster! If you do not know something, and no one tells you, then you STILL do not know about it and an opportunity at educating someone, is missed!

This forum is like everything else public we deal with everyday....some people we smile at and walk past, others we engage in conversation. Fortunately, many people that do not participate actively on the forum, continue to read the posts and continue to learn very valuable information that helps them with their pet...... and that is really why this site exists.

Very well said. I'm sure my post about the registry was considered negative and such when really I was just trying to share information.
