About DonateToDogs.org
The Donate to Dogs website is a non profit project, created and maintained by
Zoltan Wagner (me).
When I first learned about puppy mills I couldn't believe all the horrible things I heard and read. I spent many hours on the Internet finding out more and more about these cruel dog factories.
During my research I came across a news article on the Toronto Humane Society's website that told the story of a young girl who asked her parents and friends to donate to animal shelters instead of buying her gifts. So I thought: If a little girl can give up christmas gifts to help animals others can surely make a difference too.
My full time job involves creating and maintaining websites so it made perfect sense to combine my web skills with my passion for animals to create a web site that provides information about how to help pets in need.
The site at first only contained a list of charitable organizations and was hosted on a domain called donatefordogs.com. Later I added a message board, did some more research and created the site as you currently see it.
When the site was re-launched I sent out a press release and many emails to friends and family and asked everyone I know to help me with my project by donating to the US Humane Society for Christmas. So my friends donated on behalf of me to help animals and I donated on behalf of them. The best Christmas I've ever had!
Thank you all for caring about animals.
Zoltan Wagner
