I Heart Pet Bloggers

When I first tell people I blog about pets and animals they usually give me a funny look, but once I explain a little more about my blog My Tail Hurts From Wagging So Much, and the work we try to do to help raise awareness about animal-related issues, they usually get it and understand our passion for making the world a better place for pets and their owners.

If you told me a year ago, heck if you told me nine months, I would be writing about pets and enjoying it so much, I would've laughed in your face and said, "The only animals I will be covering are the ones on Capitol Hill."

Boy was I wrong. And, this weekend was a perfect example of why I'm so happy to be part of the pet bloggers community. 

A group of pet bloggers from the New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania area gathered in New Jersey for a little dog-friendly pumpkin picking, corn maze walking and to collect donations for a local New York shelter. Some of us had met at BlogPaws, but there was a good amount of people who didn't know each other, yet we all meshed perfectly, because we had a common goal of helping homeless animals.

It was such a great time!

I can't agree more. It's hard to believe I spend so many days wishing I didn't have to do my "real" job so I could blog on a regular basis for the animals. We've got a great community!

It was great meeting you Michelle! Toby is quite the ham! Keep in touch! It is a very warm community, and small enough where you can make some real connections with other bloggers!
