Do you have "dog friends" in real life?

Yes! And it's awesome. I used to not have any dog friends at all and I don't know what I used to do haha. It's nice to have friends that share your same dog views and fun. I never did anything outside of school with friends growing up really because, while I liked those friends at school, there wasn't enough commonality outside. Now with my current friends, and one inparticular, we have dogs and dog activities in common, but we also have fun doing other things. I never missed having dog friends before I had them, but now I don't really know what I'd do without them.

Yes :D I work at a dog store and all the ladies that work with me are around my age. It's so great to have a group that GETS the dog thing (/everything that goes with it) and also gets the 20s age group thing

I love it. While we aren't all into the same things. 2 are more rescue, one is more into agility, one into just fun stuff etc..

and we get to pose for pictures like this :rofl1:


I also never had dog friends before (I had friends that had dogs but never dog people really) and I didn't miss it before but now I don't know what i'd do without them

No but I don't have friends besides online people. :(

I'd love dog friends.

Nope, since moving I have no 'dog friends'. I still keep in touch with my old friends though.

My friends are pretty accepting of my dogs and that's all I really ask.

Same sort of situation as Fran. :D I work at a dog daycare/store/training facility and my co-workers and I all get along well and are into dogs (though more as pets, none do any dog sports or anything). It's great, because I can do 'dog things' with them, and then hang out with my regular friends when I want to do non-dog things, haha.

<3 my dog friends. It's cool knowing people and having them root for you at events. It's also cool that I got to talk dogs for 4 hours today and no one got bored. :rofl1:
