The digital landscape for dog lovers and responsible breeders has dramatically shifted. In a sweeping move on November 23rd, Meta's artificial intelligence systems began aggressively targeting and removing thousands of dog-related posts across Facebook, sending shockwaves through the pet community. This isn't just another social media update – it's a crisis that threatens years of work, precious memories, and legitimate businesses worldwide.

Our story serves as a stark warning. Two years ago, our thriving community at ManMade Kennels became one of the first major casualties of Meta's evolving AI moderation system. What happened to us then is now happening to thousands of others, and we feel compelled to share our experience and crucial insights to help protect your digital presence.

This isn't about promoting dogs for sale or any prohibited content – it's about the fundamental right to share our love for dogs, celebrate our four-legged family members, and maintain connections within our cherished community. Whether you're a professional breeder, show dog enthusiast, or simply someone who loves sharing photos of your furry friends, you need to understand what's happening and how to protect yourself.

In light of Meta's recent AI sweep removing thousands of dog-related posts, sharing our story isn't just important – it's crucial for the survival of our online dog community. The time to act is now before more valuable content and connections are lost forever.
