It's a really cute idea but I get the feeling that some ppl are rigging it by having everyone they know click 10 on their pet and really low on the others. Because there are some 10s in there that have a score of like 4 (and I mean really obviously cute dogs, like puppies, and not just personal dog preference). How petty and lame is that?

So I added my puppy to the list, although I'm sure she'll end this month with a very low rating since the dog with the highest score advertised it on craigslist. This is the pic I used:



She's so adorable

\/ Yes, so do I, but I was honest with the many votes I did on the site so far.

because every person thinks their pet is the cutest

My boo cant beat the 3 balls in the mouth trick

2/10/2006 10:14:42 PM

Aww he/she is cute. Is your dog kind of aged?

2/10/2006 10:16:58 PM

No....she's 3. She just has a little grey on her chin

2/10/2006 10:20:44 PM

Is that a maltese?

Bailey has only a 4.6 so far, with 195 votes. I wonder if it's like that every month. I would think she'd have at least 7 with that pic.

^^ Looks like my family's lhasa apso.

they're all so cuddly!

2/10/2006 11:10:21 PM

There has to be some shenanigans involved here. I entered my pet, and then voted for her (a 10) within the first 30 seconds, and she already had 7 total votes for an average of 3.7. There is obviously a program doing something.

2/10/2006 11:13:08 PM

i'm dissapointed in the degree of cuteness of pets on that site.

2/10/2006 11:13:08 PM

^^yeah that's really lame. What's the link to your pet? I learned about this from a craigslist post from someone asking people to vote for his/her dog. Conveniently that dog is 8.4 last time I checked. All other pets don't even reach 5. I clicked through a lot of them too, with honest answers (most of which were 7-10).

I think she's adorable. But regardless, getting 6 votes right after submission seems pretty strange.

2/10/2006 11:34:57 PM

I agree

2/10/2006 11:45:28 PM

I'm getting my puppy Sat. AM. This contest might as well end then.

people are so biased towards puppies/kittens.

that dog's seven years at least and still aging--cute as ever.

And yes, we really do call her Dog.

2/11/2006 7:28:21 AM

guess i'll see how far this makes it haha...

2/11/2006 9:55:17 AM

i'm not going to put these up on the Petmeds site, since i disagree with what they do, but i can't miss an opportunity to post pics of my boys here

2/11/2006 10:15:32 AM

i agree that the quantity is a bit insane. ive gotten about 200 since 11pm last night. i also had 7 votes before i even clicked the link from my email box. it is just dumb cuz all the dogs are below 4.5 that i voted on.

then again, voting websites are always bs and exposed to abuse.

I'd have to say most of my 8-10 votes are for mutts/old dogs, although that's generally what I vote for puppies since they can't help but be cute.

Awww sooo cute!!
