      Welcome to the BlogPaws Community!

      Congratulations! You took the first step to connecting with one of the biggest and best 24/7/365 pet blogger and micro-blogger communities.

      BlogPaws is the first to begin promoting pet health and welfare via social media, and the first to start a conference for pet parents and pet bloggers to connect with friends and brands nose-to-nose and face-to-face. Whether you’re blogging about your pet or about pets in general, or just reading blogs about pets, and looking for a community to be a part of, the BlogPaws Community welcomes you!

      Our community site attracts hundreds of pet bloggers, pet enthusiasts, and pet people- on Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, Tumblr & Squidoo. We work with brands eager to tap into a vibrant, vocal community of serious writers, bloggers, tweeters and pet lovers who live to serve animals the world over. BlogPaws is the go-to resource for pet people & brands to partner on projects and campaigns using social media tools. We are the first to award pet bloggers for their quality work with the BlogPaws Nose-to-Nose Pet Blogging and Social Media and a safe, trusted community for pet parents and enthusiasts. Oh, by the way, we don’t dictate what you consider a pet, either. Yes, we know chickens are pets. Pigs are pets. We love birds and turtles and if you consider it a pet, it’s a pet!

      Whether you are new to pet blogging and/or looking for bloggers to connect with or are a veteran blogger interested in more about this amazing dynamic of pet blogging, The BlogPaws Community is for you!

      Here’s a 6-step plan to what you can do now and in the future to maximize your BlogPaws experience:

      Thank you.  BlogPaws is so much more than I expected.  I’m taking my time to learn as much as I can, and very excited about this journey as part of the group.
