Want to meet like minded dog lovers?

There's a new social network for dog lovers that I can't recommend highly enough.
It's because of my own love for dogs that I came across K9 United and I'm hooked.
K9 united has a real facebook feel to it, which I'm grateful for, as familiarity makes me happy, and everything is pretty much laid out the same as facebook :)

Like facebook the site is "free and always will be" so I jumped right in and started uploading photos and videos of my beloved cocker spaniels.
Within seconds other members were 'liking' my photos and videos and it was a great feeling to share these photos and videos with other members who love their dogs as much as I do.

K9 UNITED

 

You can see what I mean about the whole facebook design by this screen shot of the home page.

I gotta be honest, there is no way that I would upload lots of photos and videos of my dogs to facebook, as most of my friends may not be dog lovers and not quite get the whole bond between me and my dogs, but with K9 United it doesn't matter if I upload a 100 photos of my dogs just sitting there, members on the site would understand why - because I love my dogs and this is a dog network!

 

Finding Love on K9united?

Meeting someone on a Dog Social Network?

I noticed that K9united shows your relationship status, a plus I guess, for those single people out there who are looking for a partner who shares their love for dogs.

My missus made sure that I set this to "Married"!

But in all seriousness, in my experience of walking my dogs over the fields I meet so many dog owners and the ice breaker is always to talk about our dogs, that's what our dogs are sometimes.... ice breakers.

We then talk about some of the problems we've had with our beloved k9's, how old they are, what they chewed up when they were puppies etc...... you know, DOG TALK!

So in a nutshell, this website is an online version of taking your dog for a walk over the field, you never know what dog people your gonna meet.

Anyway, regardless of your relationship status you're gonna meet people who like dogs, I'm certainly going to use k9united to organize group dog walks in our area, the missus thinks it would be a good idea to meet new people too, and I don't know what it is but I tent to trust dog owners more??
That's my naivety kicking in thinking that anyone who loves dogs couldn't possibly be bad.... I know, I have a lot to learn!

The Dog Store 

A nifty little ad-on

 

I haven't' delved into k9united's dog store too much but sufficed to say there's literally thousands of products for your dog and you will find things that are unique and different from the average pet store. (Plus a lot cheaper)
Notice the "powered by Amazon" logo in the top left of the image above, meaning everything here will be provided by the online giant and you get the usual customer reviews and service you'd expect from Amazon all within the K9 united network, so members can browse the latest dog products and read reviews whilst simultaneously chatting to their online friends. Not bad

The stuff you can buy at the dog store includes:

Beds & Furniture
Carriers & Travel Products
Clothing & Accessories
Collars, Harnesses & Leads
Doors, Gates & Ramps
Feeding & Watering Supplies
Food
Grooming
Health Supplies
Houses, Kennels & Pens
Litter & House-training
Memorials
Toys
Training & Behavior Aids
Treats

Dog Blogging? What the hell is that!? 

You can blog about your dog, or your dog can blog about you!

If your dog could write about you what would he say?K9united has a cool blog feature. I'm not sure if this is meant for the owners or the dogs?!
I've written a couple of k9united blogs about dog welfare and training etc, and the good thing is that Google will crawl the page giving me a bit of exposure in the mighty search engine. But what if dog owners were to use this as a platform for their dog to speak?

"Had quite a rufff day today, bloody diarrhea won't go away, I'm sure it's something I've eaten. Daddy not happy with me as it's all sticking to my fur"

You get the idea, I'm sure you could have a lot of fun with it!
