100,000 dogs united

Monday, December 8th, 2008

100,000There’s yet again reason to celebrate, and this time it’s huge – over 100,000 dogs now have their website on Uniteddogs.

The lucky 100,000th dog is a lovely black cocker spaniel from Spain, named Trufa, by the way. Go pat her, send her virtual gifts and greet her owner.

I remember when I started writing a blog post about the first 10,000 dogs and cats. It was last year in November. This just seems like ages ago. I could not imagine back then what exactly ten thousand dogs and cats meant. Like how big the number was really. Looking back now, it was a tiny number for social networks.

And 100,000 still doesn’t seem THAT much, does it? But… we’re talking about pets not humans. Or, to put it another way – we’re talking about humans with dogs. We just like to think of it this way – we’re not Facebook or MySpace, we’re special And of course, we’re also the web home for a little more than 66,000 cats and kittens.

Let’s hope to see some more nice numbers soon. Wanna help? Spread the links to your friends who have dogs and cats and introduce them to Uniteddogs and Unitedcats.

Meet the winners of Uniteddogs Supermodels 2009 contest

Thursday, December 4th, 2008

For the past three weeks the photo contest to find the Supermodels 2009 has been gearing up and now, believe it or not, the Uniteddogs and Unitedcats communities have been buzzing like a bee tree! Who won? More and more anxious waggly tails have been sneaking around and finally, we are revealing the true souls of the Supermodels among us now.

This was our first-to-organize contest that had such high-quality pictures taking part and it was a tremendous success. There were 4176 photos of dogs and 2999 photos of cats taking part. Everyone has a reason to be happy because every single photo was great piece of art on its own. The process of voting was more than fun – we hope you, our users, enjoyed it as much as our team did. Many photos brought a smile on our faces, many more photos simply made our  hearts melt. You can see the lucky winners from the Uniteddogs Supermodel 2009 results and the Unitedcats Supermodel 2009 results pages.

Having said that, we’re glad to introduce Uniteddogs and Unitedcats 2009 wall calendars that contain around 100 gorgeous photos of cats and dogs from tens of different countries in it. These are photos of your dogs, folks. The nicest, cutest and most adorable of them all.
