Meaning and history

Dog lovers exist all over the world. The love for these animals has become very strong in the last decades. There are about 34 million dogs in Germany alone. The animals serve most of them as companions because they are lonely or also as working or utility dogs and as assistance dogs. A large number of households even have more than one dog. Nevertheless, there are also many households that unfortunately want to get rid of their animals after some time and send them to the animal shelter. Their placement is quite difficult for most animal shelters, because some of them are mistreated animals or animals that were brought to Germany from other countries. To promote their mediation, many animal shelters usually use a website. A domain extension that leads especially dog lovers to animals of their choice and also to further information is the domain extension .dog very useful. Because this shows the user immediately that the website or its content is something that is about dogs. The term means translated from English dog.
