How do I get my business listed on your site?

Just email us and let us know! Our goal is to provide a comprehensive directory for the Portland dog lover. Basic listings (business name, address, and phone number) are free. Be sure to include the full business name, address, and phone number in your email. Also include a brief description of your business so we know which section(s) to list it in. Click here for our email address.

IMPORTANT: Portland Pooch reserves the right to list or not list a business on this site. Only dog-related businesses will be considered.

My business information is incorrect, how do I correct it?

Email us and we'll be happy to make the necessary changes.

Can I advertise on your site?

Yes. Visit our advertising section for descriptions of the different advertising services we offer.

How do I submit a photo of my dog?

Easy, just email us the digital picture as an attachment along with the following information: 1) Your Name 2) A short caption for the photo 3) Breed of dog(s) in the picture. Sorry, but we only accept digital pictures at this time, and only those that are at least 640 x 480 in resolution. Please no camera phone pictures unless they are high resolution and good quality. Click here for the email address.

IMPORTANT: By sending us your photo(s), you are giving us permission to post the image(s) on our website, and crop or scale the image as necessary. Due to the potentially large number of photos submitted, we will not be able to post every photo, but we will try!

How do I get my business listed in another category/section?

We try very hard to list businesses in the sections that best represent their offerings. All businesses can be listed in up to TWO categories free of charge. If you would like to list your business in more than two sections, visit our advertising section. If you feel that your business is listed in the wrong section(s), just contact us and we'll be happy to make the change.
