Dawn's History Page
 
 

Hello and Welcome. My name is Dawn but I also go by Timber Wolf 
and Simba and the Gang. This is one of my finches named Simba.

I joined Petsburgh in March of 2000. I was not sure what I was getting into at first.  Mona became my first mentor.  She is fantastic and was always willing to answer my questions. Mona and Lisa both were the Liaisons of Petsburgh. They are two of the nicest and patient people that I have met.  They are great teachers. 

The CL's that I met, Co-Liaisons and Liaisons are all great.
Trying to remember who was here Barb, Paula, Cathy, Mona, Lisa, Sandi, Lyn, SuSue, Ferd, Merr, and Siouxx. I know I am missing some. 

Then I went to Sandi "Mom" in the Realm of the Spoiled Pet's.  Mom is very  patient and very understanding.  She always took time to explain things.  She is very special lady. Hey she likes wolves too. Anyone who likes wolves is tops with me ;)

The first committee I joined was the Graphics committee,
then Blue Ribbon.  The first committee that I became co-chair for was the Stable Pick of the Week.  I very much enjoyed working with Cathy. Not only did we became friends online, but we became friends offline. Cathy is a wonderful person with a big heart.

In July of 2000 I finally joined the E-mail list and that is when I got to know them and found out what a great bunch they are.
Then I met Punkie, Ulla, Joan, Cathy, Mike, Kryss, Trina, Uwe and Mandi.

I had no idea all of these people where there until I joined the list.
They were all very helpful and understanding when I lost 4 of my birds.
Honestly they helped me get through it.  And let my friends go to the rainbow bridge.
 

I think October (I am so bad with dates) I got switched to the Yard with Mona :)  I had fun at the Yard finding pages for the Spotlight.

In November I was chosen as CL of the month.  That was the best honor that I could receive.

Also I got switched to Barb at the Cattery, 9 to 5 Working Animals, and the Pet Jungle.  I am not a big cat person but do like big cats. The Petsburgh Pet Jungle became my favorite burb. I did have fun doing the Christmas pages for the Jungle and the Cattery which is now Catsburgh.
Barb is great, very patient and takes time to explain things.  She also has a big heart and is very understanding.

In December 2000 Mona talked to me about being chair of the Petsburgh Pet Party and I said yes right away :) ... I very much enjoy it. Thought Wow me.  I was thrilled to have it and do it :) . Still love it.
They were also wonderful when I went through my family crisis with my grandfather. They helped me through and where there.
Thank You ALL!!!!

In January 2001 I took over the Stable Pick of the Week as Chair.
I thought this is great and I am having fun with both committees :)

January 12, 2001. I got the best surprise that I could.  I became Co-Liaison of the Pet Jungle . That was the best gift that I could 
get. I can never say Thank You to Barb, Mona, and Lisa for this opportunity. 
 

The Petsburgh team is the best. They have a spirit and bond that refuses to let Petsburgh die. They have made me laugh and cry.  Each one of them in Petsburgh is special and unique in their own way. Without them, Petsburgh would not be.

I am not sure what the next road will lead but I am looking forward to the ride.  If I could I would thank them all individually on this page but the page is long enough.  Thank You all ... I am proud to be part of Petsburgh and to call you a friend ...
