Petworking

I'm sure we are all too familiar with dating websites. With our busy, conflicting schedules, it seems like online is the only place we can go to meet people. I never actually used a dating site but for some reason I still get emails from them. FarmersOnly.com really wants me to join. While we may be secretive about dating websites, there's a new way to meet people online and it's blowing up. In my other posts, it's clear that we are no stranger to creating profiles for our fur babies on social media. But what about networking sites? "Dating" websites for our pets are on the rise and we are all about them. Do you ever get the feeling that your puppy needs a playmate but you can't afford the time or the money it takes to get one more? Sites like UrbanHound, Catster.com, Dogster.com, PetPop.com and ZooToo.com are there to provide you with a plethora of pet owners in your area. You can read up on the pet and owner to determine who looks like a good match for you and you pet. It's literally like a dating website for our animals. The picture below is from UnitedDogs.com and it shows all the basic information about Brownie, his albums full of pictures, his friends, the gifts he's received, the clubs he belongs to, and his blog... What?? How did this become a thing? I don't know but I love it!

Just like we use Facebook, these websites are used to creep on owners and their pets to see if they are a good match. It's a place to make and meet friends, for your pet and possibly yourself. There are so many platforms to place you pet on, you just need to find your best fit!
