Having just bought my first puppy, I have been looking for pet
information and pet communities on the internet that can offer good
advice on how to care for my dog. The problem that I run into is not
knowing which sites offer good and unbiased (no product tie-ins)
information. My question is: What are the 10 best/most visited pet
sites on the Internet?

Hi dmonsees,

  Good day and thanks for your question.

  Google uses a very efficient algorithm where it assigns a pagerank
to a webpage based on a number of factors (how specific the page is,
how many sites link to it, etc..). So, higher the pagerank, better &
more popular the site

  Before I go into the top 10, I highly encourage you to visit
http://www.k9web.com/dog-faqs/new-puppy.html which gives all the DOs
and Don'ts and everything you need to know when you get a new puppy.

Now, the top 10 websites for Dog Care. This is based on the pagerank
technology mentioned above. Please not that this is not in any
particular order.

What kind of a dog, do you have?

By the way, there seem to be several sites on Yahoo.com devoted to
discussion of dogs.

Enjoy!
