Advice without attitude! If you own or are thinking about getting a puppy or dog, or if you are a tactful and experienced doggy person who wants to help others, please join us. Petdogs-L provides tips and information to people of all levels of experience for dogs of all breeds, including mixes.
When you apply to join Petdogs-L, please give a reason for your interest in the group. We do read them -- it's to keep out spammers and "bots." Comments like "HI" won't do!"
What you won't find here: Lectures -- We have no teachers and no students. We all learn from each other and all are encouraged to contribute.
Rudeness -- not even snippy answers, no matter how "dumb" you think your question is or how politically incorrect it might be. We're not here to preach. We're here to help.
Spam -- This list is fully moderated to insure civility and to provide list readability. Basic netiquette is required and there is zero tolerance for spammers.
Forwards -- of any type. No matter how cute, funny, or sad.
Crusaders -- No pot-banging or moralizing about the evils of vaccines, drugs, commercial breeding, or anything else. This is not a pulpit.
You must read and follow the rules in our welcome file sent to you when you join. They're intended to make Petdogs-L a pleasant and helpful experience for all members. If you do not follow the rules, your posts will not be approved, so please read them carefully!
Thanks for your interest, and enjoy the group!
