An Australian social networking site designed especially for dogs is becoming a big hit. Dogtree helps dogs and their owners find local buddies to play with and walk with. This is a great idea, especially if you are gone for much of the day. If you knew your pup could stay with a doggie friend he likes you wouldn’t feel the guilt of leaving your buddy.
To find canine friends, owners can put in their zip code (more advanced search options are also available, such as breed and size). Once done the result is a list of other suitable dog members in their area. Once they find some that seem like a good match (owners post pictures of their dogs), dog owners can invite them through the site for a playdate or meeting. There is a classified section that has many “Playmates Wanted” ads.
This trend would be a great way to find play mates for your dog during the time you’re away all day. It could definitely stop excessive barking caused by leaving your dog alone all day.
