Title: Anyone else get fed up with emails about dog things
Post by: Mark on November 23, 2008, 12:02:24 PM
From Petplanet, VetUK etc?

I wish they split cat and dog emails up. Often, there is nothing on offer for cats  :tired:

Yes, I am sure that if you also have a dog, they are great  :evillaugh: - I get enough rubbish in the inbox so really don't need to know that dog coats are on sale  :evillaugh:

The thing is, I'm sure a lot of people unsubscribe because of it?

I keep them going as every so often there is  10% off Royal Canin cat food and they are worth the rubbish ones for that.

The link isn't as obvious as I thought, I got it through google last night, thought it was mypetsupermarket.co.uk and wondered why it wasn't working!

They are? :wow:

Mark, do you have a 'no junk mail' sign on your door? If not, then stop complaining, these emails are the same thing but a lot more environmentally sustainable ... You can always hit the delete button, like I do if you don't fancy this month's offer ...

The only reason I don't unsubscribe is that I am frightened of missing something  :evillaugh:

I am getting low on sensible 33 and now wish I had bought  bags when it was 3 for 2 (the hedgies and local beggar cats also eat it)

I think their marketing would be far more effective if they gave the option cat, dog or both as the way it is, I miss the cat offers. I am unsubscribing from VetUK as their offers are piddling.

I double check each site every month before I order as pricey are varying so much at the moment anyway and have a 6kg bag every month of RC Urinary.

Having said that, the dog in the main pic is gorgeous - Cairn Terrier? (Excuse my ignorance)

looks like an airedale to me, but what would I know  :Crazy:

I found the dog pyjamas a little disturbing though - don't these people realise dogs are not little furry human beings ...  :scared:

I googled images and you are right BC - I'm glad I didn't order one mail order as the Cairn Terrier is what I don't like about dogs - a yappy little rat thing  :evillaugh:

My personal theory is that if you have to bend over to pat it, it is not a dog!! :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

It's not an Airedale .. wrong colour and too small. I think it's a Wire haired Fox Terrier.
