When it comes to social media, it is  no surprise this new form of technology is the perfect way to keep in touch with the communities that we are passionate about. So while the booming pet industry continues to thrive at generating some of the country’s biggest revenues as well as creating job hundreds of job opportunities, it only makes sense that social media platforms for pets have become latest trend when it comes to people’s passion for their pets and the pet lifestyle.

Pet owners naturally congregate- whether it is because of their daily walks, or for pet-shows, or for just to compare notes- this community is very passionate about their pets! So taking these conversations to a social network seems like a natural next step. Many pet social networks not only provide forums, resources, and expert help, but they also provide owners with the ability to showcase their pets by developing pet profiles, creating groups, exchanging photos and videos. Furthermore, many of these networks have introduced gaming to increase the interaction, fun and benefits for their membership.

Our friends at Pawwz have created a large interactive online social media network where Pet–owners can set up profiles for their pets, find friends, enter discussions, share photos, stories, blogs, create albums of their dogs and upload videos. Similar to Facebook for people, members can create a customized profile for their dogs, make new dog friends and arrange doggy play dates! They can also share professional health advice from pet experts and find local pet businesses, parks and sitters.

We at Barking Beast have been signed up for only a few days and can’t seem to log off – the network is full of animal lovers who have so many fun, passionate and hilarious pictures and posts pet related you won’t be able to log off either!

A pet social network is an excellent niche to join if you are not only a pet-owner but if your hobby or profession is pet related, like us at Barking Beast and the San Diego Pets Magazine. Sign up and create your profile today at Pawwz.com and be sure to add us at Barking Beast! See you there!!! WOOF!
