A new dating website for dog owners launched recently. Puppy Love Match is the "pet" project of Andrea Fassler, a professional dog walker and trainer. The idea for this website was a natural for Ms. Fassler, who knows what a magnet dogs are for conversation among strangers. "I live it in New York City every day – people of all ages stop to admire the dogs I walk. They ask questions and share information as if we were old friends. It is amazing how shyness suddenly drops away."

Puppy Love Match also publishes a wealth of information on dog health, grooming, training and more. It even has its own resident veterinarian, Andrew Jones, DVM, a homeopathic Vet from BC Canada and author of "Veterinary Secrets Revealed" who will answer member questions on a weekly basis.

As part of its launch, Puppy Love Match is offering free memberships between now and December 15th, after which, a portion of the membership sales will be donated to the ASPCA, Guiding Eyes, and a rotating animal shelter suggested by members.
