arjay Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 I joined cause I knew I wanted to get a dog in the future, and wanted to do alot of research before i buy one, pure-bred was the way to go and no better to come and join dogzonlone. Now i got beautiful 4 month old rott. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatsofatsoman Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 (edited) I was a lurker way before I joined - I used DOL to read up on all the do's and don'ts of buying a pup - didn't join until I actually had a pup as that's when I felt like I had bragging rights and ability to post. My pup came from a breeder advertising on here. Edited June 26, 2011 by Fatsofatsoman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My pup came from a breeder advertising on here. and also just looking at my joined date (march-11) I don't reckon that's right - I'm sure I've been here longer than 3 mths. Boonie is just over a year old?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frenzied1 Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 I joined up because of dog rescue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetty Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 I joined after I got Jet when a high school friend who's a member recommended me to this forum. I only knew what my family knew about dogs, after joining this forum I discovered how little that knowledge was! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B-Q Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 I was on a mainly American/Canadian dog forum for a couple of years before DOL. Then I decided I wanted to talk to some Aussies about dogs and have the possibility to meet some people one day. That was about 4 years ago and I'm still on both forums.

whiskedaway Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 I joined after I got Akira. We had lots of issues with her fear at the start and I joined to get advice on how to handle it. I stayed because I loved talking about dogs and no one around me wanted to listen to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alkhe Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 I found the forums after finding the Dogz Online mature dog listing and poring over it for months (along with petrescue, which I am still obsessed with). I lurked for months before joining, then again before posting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W Sibs Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 (edited) I wanted to find a place where I can talk about dogs with other dog crazy people :D Charlie was my first puppy (although not my first dog I've ever owned) and I wanted to do right by him too..

~*Shell*~ Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 (edited) I joined because I had a lot of issues with Zero at the time and I needed somewhere to vent where someone wouldn't tell me my only option was to have him PTS. I was a lurker for a long time before I joined though Edited June 27, 2011 by ~*Shell*~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lindainfa Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 I have just graduated my Certificate 4 in Veterinary Nursing and am LOVING my job now!!! Literally DOL has changed my life. Love this story also! I joined to research breeds that were for me, I researched each breed for about 6 months and then purchased my puppies from breeders on here. Now I am researching my next breed, the Newfoundland! Love learning more and more about dogs. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MavericksMission Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 I found DogzOnline when I was googling different things. I lurked for about a year and finally joined not long after my heart dog passed away. I did hesitate joining as I had a crossed breed rescue puppy, but keeping the breed out of it, I have learnt alot on here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
claireybell Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 I was googling one day and work while I was bored and discovered the forum. Figured I'd join up and see what it was like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stack Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 I joined ages ago when I was trying to convince my husband that we should get a dog. (He's not a dog person lol), but it seemed kinda pointless to stay since he wouldn't budge on the subject. However, we've finally agreed on a corgi (which I grew up with!) and I found my way back here during my search for a breeder and pup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 I joined after looking up certain problems that our dogs have, and found this site and found it very informative, I had been looking at this site for some time before joining though. lablove Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GSDowner Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 (edited) I joined to: - Get help - and I did, can't thank enough the people here - Get comfort from being "listened to" and comforted when I worry about my pooches plus many other reasons A BIG THANK YOU Edited July 3, 2011 by GSDowner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeeGee Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 I joined DOL because there appeared to be a ridiculous amount of knowledge flying around here. It was good to talk to other people who loved dogs, and to get ideas, I found an amazing trainer through DOL.....I was so green! Im still green,but I know a shite load more than what I did, and feel confident in feeding a raw diet, that my dogs are happy and healthy etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mystiqview Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 I joined way too long ago to really remember why I joined. Seemed like a good thing to do at the time. It used to be a good forum. Occassionally it is still a good forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
