But moving mountains are hard because we're still so small. Note that we 100% forbid anyone to buy/sell/stud/litter in anyway on our sites. Seems obvious but it's a lot of work policing every page, but we simply wouldn't have it any other way. Also check out our forums where we facilitate a lot of important rescue and dog health and rescue knowledge http://www.dogster.com/forums/Shelters_Rescue_and_Fostering http://www.dogster.com/forums/Adoption_and_Happy_Endings http://www.dogster.com/forums/Dog_Health http://www.dogster.com/forums/Dogster_Railroad We also make it very easy for people to find rescues: http://www.dogster.com/assign_stroll.php?o=q http://www.catster.com/assign_stroll.php?o=q But I agree we could do more to help aware people to not let mistakes happen in the first place. We'll see what we can do. Hi Cara,

I bet we could and if there are any members that do not know why spaying and neutering is so important then we aren’t doing our job well enough.

But moving mountains are hard because we’re still so small. Note that we 100% forbid anyone to buy/sell/stud/litter in anyway on our sites. Seems obvious but it’s a lot of work policing every page, but we simply wouldn’t have it any other way.

But I agree we could do more to help aware people to not let mistakes happen in the first place. We’ll see what we can do.

Since overpopulation is the number one killer of dogs, why not focus on a theme like spay/neuter? Dogster could be moving some small mountains and making the world a lot better for dogs Dogster could be doing a LOT more for the plight of the homeless and unwanted.

Your concept of cruise is different than mine. The site recently signed up its 10,000th member. It developed the animal emergency rescue website in the midst of Katrina. It has always been about getting pets adopted and Animal Planet with its wide reach will make the reach of Petfinder even greater. On cruise control? Your concept of cruise is different than mine.
