I don't recognise their birthdays, they would think I had gone mad if I did anything different, they are perfectly happy with a normal day of walks and play.
Anyway, we would have nobody to invite!

PS regarding posts that take a different view, I don't find those offensive - aren't people allowed to express an opinion?

I don't have a problem with anyone, like yoursef, to express a different opinion, in a manner which doesnt offend people, but Nickyboy was offensive in the manner which he posted.

Example :

"I personally think it's silly to have doggy birthdays and can't see the point" (General comment made, of a personal opinion, no directed at anyone in particular)

"Are you kidding me, seriuosly, do YOU have birthdays for your dogs ? I'm gonna buy my dog a Playstation cos he wants one !!!!! " (or similar) sarcastic, ridiculing and belittling myself and ZB which was directed at both of us personally, and he gave no personal opinion on the matter at all)

Yes without being offensive.

People celebrate there birthdays , There childrens birthdays , Why not there dogs ?

Lady birthday is March as is Beau , Lady gets new toys and treats as she dont like cake doggy or otherwise and a day out just me amnd her , The same for Beau , Skye gets the same Her birthday is July , I spend quality time with them on there own as appossed to taken them all out together like I do everyday xdk

hi dolly knockers - i was only trying to have a bit of a joke, misjudged a lot of peoples reactions to it, im sure most people done the buying xmas stockings from pet shop etc for their dogs, i dont celebrate mines birthdays, do celebrate my kids birthdays but see them rather differently. I was genuinely having a joke and little taken aback that some people didnt see it that way.
im also not a sexist pig by some of my jovial remarks i made on another thread today, that too was just having a laugh and as no one stooped to actually take the trouble to lodge a complaint???? about it i can assume they too took my comments as a joke.
I thought forums were allowed to be interspersed with a bit of banter as are they also allowed to include people who think the idea of having a birthday party is as ludicrous as those that think it is perfectly normal are entitled to their opinion.
Was my intention to be offensive, quite the opposite, and though i didnt come out and say sorry in simple terms, several of my comments were blatantly intended to make ammends and soften any wrong interpretation of my sarcy comments.
Im sorry there were those that felt the need to actually make a complaint.

And why not!
Yep...but we are just ''''fluffy females'''
PMSL at that.......
