Dating websites for dogs have started emerging online.
The web pages enable pet owners to set up social networking profiles for their pooches and find an ideal match.
Websites such as MatchPuppy.com, which carries the tagline "it's a dog meet dog world", have emerged and Julie Spira, an online dating and cyber relations expert, revealed owners go to great lengths to keep their four-legged friends happy.
She is quoted by Huffington Post as saying: "We schedule neighbourhood dog walks, and dress our pets in outfits and booties worth being viewed on Rodeo Drive.
"Shouldn't our devoted four-legged friends have an opportunity to find love online?"
