So I got a call from my sister and she said I should delete my raw feeding album on facebook. Theres nothing gruesome on it, just photos on Unos meals. I like to track his progress and link photos from FB to here (since I've run into space problem from other image hosting sites) as well as my blog.
She thinks that I'm giving people the wrong impression and it doesent help my crazy dog lady image.
In all honesty I never even considered that anyone would find it offensive, but her comment was very hurtful. Should I really care what people think of me based on what I post there? I dont get offended when I see hundreds of infant photos or guys posting picture of their cars and bikes. Everyone is has different interests and hobbies, why should I feel inferior just because mine involves me wanting to better the health and well being of my pet as well as educate others in the process?

HAHAHHA....
If ANY of my family told me that they would get a good laugh in the face and a "go screw off"(or something like that!)
I AM the "crazy dog lady" of my family...I LOVE, no ADORE, that fact....and most people who actually mean anything to me know that and love me for it...or at least except it!!
Your food album is like the most mild mannered one that Ive ever seen, and all your pictures are tasteful...and VERY pretty!!!
(Oh and I *need* a link to your blog!!Ever since starting my own Ive really gotten into them again!!LOL)

No way! Nobody has to like all of your pictures or posts. Guess what? They don't even have to look at them. If they find them that offensive, there's a 'hide' button. Your facebook is just that...YOURS. It's meant to be a reflection of YOUR personality, hobbies and interests.
RAW FED SINCE AUGUST 2010
from one crazy dog lady to another, instead of deleting it, write the title in capital letters...
i can understand you thinking it was a hurtful comment...only you know your sister well enough to know whether she likes to throw grenades or just has diarrhea of the mouth....ya know?
be proud of your dogs and your passions..
and then i would up the ante and post more and more pics of your dog and how gorgeous he is and show lots and lots of different foods he eats....the bloodier the better.
i get the 'upset'......but i guess those of us who walk a different road must expect some hits below the belt from those who stay on the main road.....
oh and i want a link too please...

I post pics of what I make for dinner for myself and my dogs. If they don't like it, they don't have to be my friend. That's the way I look at. I think its pretty interesting what is in the food bowl. LOL
I'm always the butt of the jokes around my family because of my animals. Its very hurtful because I've always had issues making friends due to my anxiety and it doesent help when my sister comments that I never have any photos of myself or other people on there, that I need to get out more and interact, get a boyfriend, etc.
She doesent know what I have to deal with on daily basis just to get through the day and that animals have been there for me during the darkest hours when everyone else wasnt.
I'm still working on setting up a blog, I'm trying to figure out how to create a banner for the main page but I'm having some trouble. So it may be a while before I start blogging. Let me know what your blog is because I'd love to add you.
ETA: thanks everyone, I feel little better :)
As long as you're not posting copious poop shots, I would cordially invite your sister to bite you at her earliest convenience.![]()

Been there, sorry you have to go thru that!!
Growing up my Mum was the only one who understood that I would FAR rather hang out with my dogs(or ANY animals) then people at all!
But I was lucky to have her on my side!
Stand your ground....your dogs are YOUR friends...and your family, the ones who will NEVER make fun of you and ALWAYS love you!!
and mine is aBeauregardBlog.blogspot.com(Im also working on the layout/look of mine!)

Well, my sister told me she would unfriend me if I kept posting pics of my dogs' food...that didn't stop me and I don't think she has yet unfriended me, lol
