About

Hello, to all of the people dedicated to making the lives of dogs better,

My name is Kristin Smith. I am a television news reporter, animal shelter volunteer, and a dog rescuer. In my travels as a reporter, I have seen so many abandoned, neglected, and abused animals and have rescued them whenever possible. I have gone on to find them forever homes.

I have now created a tool everyone can use in finding the right pet for the right owner. At the same time, it will hopefully lessen the burden on shelters and rescues.

This tool is called http://www.spotapup.com, and the mission is simple: by matching the right dog with the right person, we hope to keep dogs from becoming homeless, and winding up in shelters.

This website is simply a way of helping to determine which pet is the most appropriate match for your particular family and environment. It also tells you where the closest shelter with that breed of dog can be found.

In this age of retrieving information at the touch of a button, I believe this is an idea that’s long overdue. Animals, families, and animal shelters across the country will benefit from it.

To us, this is a movement that will change the way you look for your new best friend. Instead of, “That dog is cute, I want her!” you’ll be saying “That dog is cute! But is she right for me?” With http://www.spotapup.com, you’ll know the answer.

We appreciate your dedication to dogs and the movement that will help save lives!

Thank you.

Sincerely,

Kristin Smith
Founder
