Someone explain Dogster to me please
« on: June 24, 2006, 07:04:53 am »
Ok, I added Bella a long time ago just for giggles.  Then recently I updated and added Foster's picture and a page for Baloo.  All of a sudden I'm getting a TON of pal requests from people I don't know.  Do they troll the pages?  Is there some sort of notification that tells people when a new dog has been added?  Are there people out there that are obsessed with Dogster?  I promise I don't have any real problems with it, it's just weird that it happened suddenly.

There might be something that lets peole know when a new dog has been added. I'm sure there is and that's how they knew. I was kind of freaked out too when I first started using Dogster at the pup pal requests! But it just means they like your dog so no worries. And yes, there are some people obsessed with dogster too.

When you add new dogs the dogs you've already made a Dogster page for come up on the new dog's page...If you go to your new pages & scroll down you should see pics of the dogs you already had listed...The new dog you listed would be on the "new to Dogster" link on the home page...So, if anyone wants to see the dogs recently added to Dogster they would jsut click that link & see all of the dogs you have listed. :)

I just signed Jasper up for Dogster.  I had to use a generic pic for my dog, but he does look exactly like that.  I have found that there are many dogs for adoption up on Dogster and that you can "corral" them into a group to look at.  That's pretty cool-

I signed up less than an hour ago and I already have four requests.  I think it's a little weird that people would respond so quickly.  I worry that I'm signing my life/identity away when I agree to be pals.

Hi Stacey, I see that you haven't gotten an answer for this yet. Dogster is a website for dog lovers that you set up something like our paw print profiles, then you can request friends.

I haven't updated them in a while but here are the links for my pooches.

I kind of like Dogster.  There are a HUGE amount of white shepherds on there.
