I'm not sure how much of this is news, and how much is a cheeky attempt to get some publicity before Valentine's Day.
But DateMyPet has been plugging its cyberflirting features, which allow users to send each other virtual kisses, and rate each others' pets on the grounds of their attractiveness (hence the picture: sorry, I couldn't resist).
I dunno, I suppose it is a handy social networking community for the sort of people who'd judge potential life partners by the colour of their Shitzu. Insert your own Dr Gillian McKeith joke here.
