I thought this would be a good time for those of us who wanted to send their thanks to Brandon for this forum.
I don't know if there are words to say how much I appreciate this forum. It has given me the chance to meet and make friends with so many great people.
You under estimate what you have done here, Brandon. You have brought together people who have a love of their pets and made it into a family of sorts. As a group we have helped members through illnesses, deaths, tragedies, etc. We also have been able to share all the joy we have with our pets and families here.
Not to mention all the knowledge that is passed around daily.
I thank you Brandon for all you have done. Thanks for ABC.

yeah, what Linda said....(sorry, can't think of any more to add...she pretty much said it)
maybe when i'm in CA next yr i'll have to look you up


(i'll give yoou fair warning so you can hide

)
Not only a family, but a family of PEOPLE, bringing together different continents, creeds and cultures. Thanks Brandon.
Thank you so much Brandon for my amazing extended family. I am also at a loss as to what to say to even begin to express my heart felt thank you. I feel so spoiled to be surrounded in such amazing company and I am thankful every day for the chance to be in all your lives.
Thank you so much Brandon, from the bottom of my heart! I hope you and everyone have a wonderful holiday season!!
Ash xoxo
I'd also like to send a big, big thanks to Brandon, nothing's ever too much trouble whether it be a problem posting or anything else.
Linda's said it all.
You've made a brilliant, successful site Brandon with lots of great people on it, so a great big THANKS
I'd also like to thank the moderators, Linda, LD, LJ and Samwise for all their hard work too

I don't think I can add much as far as my thanks to Brandon and the moderators. I would like to add thank you to everyone who makes this more than just an informational forum, but a family. Thank you for caring about Green and my family.
Brandon you have done so much for each one of us. You have opened up the door for us to communicate with people we otherwise probably wouldn't know existed. I know I am so blessed to be able to access this site and get that much needed encouragement. Ultimately all of that boils down to you and I am so thankful for you! I hope you know how much you're loved. From the United States to Europe, to Africa, to Australia. You have changed all of our lives so thank you

my thanks too Brandon, i know i can come here and just read or look at the many wonderfull photos post if i think i can help and ask for and recieve help too. i always log off with a smile on my face and sometimes a chuckle. a thought for those less fortunate and a wish for a happy ending when someone is in need. Its coming up to Christmas on the 24th i always light a candle for my family and friends that are no longer here and another for my friends that are too far away to see. this year ABC friends will be in my thoughts too.
It's really nice reading this thread and feeling how true every word is. I've only been a member here for a few months but already I feel I know most of you.
It is amazing how such a simple thing as an online forum can help when one is in crisis or just needs a place to went or maybe just share a joyous moment or a little brag.
You deserve a great big thanks and a great big hug for keeping this little community alive.
THANKS Brandon

Everyone else has said it all really - thanks mate

This is a very beautiful sentiment Joanne. Thank you.
I have nothing more to add but an additional thank you. Thank you.
Silky and I say a great big thank you Mr. B. ((((((((HUG))))))))

I can't believe that I've made so many friends in a year....who saw me through the biggest tragedy of my life, when people were shot outside my door....something I wouldn't have imagined could happen not only in the UK, but in a tiny village like ours. People I've never met poured out words of encouragement to strengthen and support us....I sometimes go back and read the thread, weep again, and give thanks for you all.
So thank you, Brandon, for what you've given me this year.
Jo.
Brandon:
Thanks for making such a fun and successful site. Despite never having met any one (Lj excepted of course) of you, I'm grateful for the friendships that have been forged. I know I can be giddy-excited and gush about what-ever, vent about whatever thing just happened, or show endless photo's of my 'kids' to and someone will always listen. This site has been a wealth of information and I've learned much about training. (Thanks everyone)
THANKS BRANDON!!!
