r/Dogowners

20k members
r/Dogowners is a subreddit with 20k members. The most common kinds of discussions are advice requests and pain & anger, and the community frequently discusses dog, puppy, advice, training, and health, and they frequently recommend/review chew toy, dry dog food, and dog food.
For the people that own and love dogs, but like the rest of their life, they have no idea if they're being a good owner or not sometimes and I'd like to get advice from more knowledgeable people who also love dogs.
