It's Not Personal

Author: Kimberly Gauthier, CPCN

When it comes to social media, it's only a matter of time until you find yourself in a disagreement with someone. Some people will gift you with a spirited and informative discussion while others will take offense to your every word.

Sadly, social media can sometimes make a different opinion seem like a disagreement. People skim posts, get offended, and pass judgement.

It's not personal; it's social media.

Deep Thoughts

Everyone's afraid. Afraid of losing their dog, afraid of not doing the right things for their dogs, afraid of being attacked or judged because of the choices they make for their dogs. Ultimately, it's the fear of the unknown - we're working so hard to keep our dogs alive longer that we risk missing out on the miracle that is the love of a dog.

They're investigating Bobi's age...

Last week, social media was alight with outrage over the decision to investigate claims that Bobi was 31 years old. 

It's clear that Bobi was an old dog and there is so much to be learned from his life that could help other dogs - but this isn't a priority for everyone.

While I understand why some don't believe that Bobi was 31 years old, I don't see how they'll be able to provide definitive proof to satisfy everyone. And, in the meantime, a family mourning the loss of their dog is caught in the middle as veterinarians try to show fresh food isn't the answer after all.

I don't care about the age. I appreciate learning about his life and pray that his family is able to avoid being dragged through controversy.
