The \u2018Week in Tweets\u2019 is name in the optimism that I will post a\u00a0Twitter<\/a> round up on a weekly basis. This time it was a bit longer than a week\u2026\u00a0It\u2019s basically my \u2018recommended reading\u2019 list. A lot of reading to do, so get ready!<\/p>\n

This past week (ish, kinda) we were featured on the Top 50 Pet Blogs<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Over the next few months, I’ll be\u00a0tagging some topics with ‘NDTF’. This is to cluster\u00a0topics relevant to my recent Certificate III in Dog Training and Behaviour. I hope that if I tag future posts with NDTF, this will help future students in the subject.<\/p>\n

Tweet of the Week<\/strong><\/p>\n

A very personal post from Darren titled “How compassion fatigue infiltrated my life<\/a>“. \u00a0While I haven’t got to the point of sharing my own story, needless to say, Darren’s story struck-a-chord with me.\u00a0While it’s easy to see how the sheltering system does wrong by pets, it’s harder to see the very powerful impact the sheltering system has on\u00a0humans<\/em>. As always, the “Tweet of the Week” is the story you should read if you read nothing else.<\/p>\n
