How many profiles can I create?

There is something offensive/fraudulent on the site. Can you remove it?
We would like to first note that this is a virtual online community and anything that is posted by users is to be taken with discretion and is unaffiliated with our site. Please use the report abuse link at the bottom of profiles or send us an e-mail if the offensive/fraudulent material resides outside the profiles. We will remove any inappropriate material at our discretion after review. Please include any evidence you may have of the offense.
Someone has defamed me or has posted rude remarks. How can I remove those comments?
If the remarks are on one of your own dog profile pages, you can remove them by logging in and viewing your dog's page. There will be a "delete" button next to the comments. Click the button that corresponds with the comment you would like to remove. If the comment(s) reside on another person's profile, contact us by using the "Report Inappropriate Content" link at the bottom of their profile. Please be specific in your report and include as much information as you can.
Someone stole my photo. How can I get it removed?
You can either use the "Report Inappropriate Content" link if it resides on a profile, or you can contact us under the subject "Technical Support". Please provide any evidence you may have that proves you are the original owner of the photo. We will review and remove the photo if we believe that it has been stolen.
Someone posted copyrighted material. Are you going to remove it?

How can I add or delete a comment on a blog?

What are Dog of the Day / Dog of the Month (Top Dog) and how are they determined?
Dog of the Day/Month are the top dogs on our sites that receive the most votes on their profiles as well as in the community gallery for that given period.

I redeemed a certain item, why haven't I received anything?
We are most likely processing your order or have already shipped your redemption. If you feel that it is taking an unusually long time for your item to get to you, please contact us using the subject "Technical Support."
If you redeemed a magazine subscription, please allow 6 to 8 weeks for delivery. If you already subscribe, your subscription will be extended for one year. All other products should arrive within a week or two. On occasion, an item will take longer due to availability. If you don’t receive your item within 3 weeks of redeeming it, please contact us using the subject "Technical Support."
I didn't receive my points for an activity? Is there something wrong?
Please carefully review the activity or your point history on the "My Account" page. Points reflected are sums of similar activities on a certain date. If you still feel that you have not received all your points, contact us using the subject "Technical Support."
