Welcome To The New GUNDOGS.Com Web Site

Overview of the new GUNDOGS.Com website

The new GUNDOGS.Com site currently has 7 menu /navigation items on the left and 5 menu items at the top. Additional menu items appear after a registered user logs in. After login additional navigation items are available for administrating ads. All Ads are moderated to protect people from publishing porn and or inappropriate content.

Within these sections are facilities to advertise a particular item or service. There are 3 types of Ads: Premium, Photo, and Text Only. Premium Ads show up first in the display list, Photo Ads are displayed next, and last in the display are the Text Only Ads. Currently Text Only Ads are free. However, we may charge a nominal fee ($5.00) for the Text Only Ads with a portion of the money being donated to some sort of Sporting Breed Rescue or other dog related charity.

Dogs For Sale Ads, and Fine Shotgun Ads expire 45 days after moderation, the price for these ads are $30 (Premium) and $20 (Photo).

Breeders and Trainers, Lodges and Outfitters and Business Directory section Ads expire 1 year after moderation with an annual fee of $150 (Premium) and $100 (Photo). The Business Directory contains a list of categories of interest for the typical dog owner or hunting enthusiast. This Section is for Businesses of the aforementioned categories to list and describe themselves as well as their products & services.

The two new Sections added to the Website are Fine Shotguns and Find A Vet.

The Fine Shotguns Section only accepts double barreled shotguns. This differentiates GUNDOGS.Com from the numerous other Firearm selling websites. What better way to spend an autumn day afield than hunting upland game or waterfowl with a fine double in your hand and your canine companion on your side.

The Find a Vet Section was created due to the many requests we had from our members. Many a time a hunter is traveling to remote areas in pursuit of their quarry... with trips to Montana, South Dakota or to other places not far from home but miles from their regular vet. In addition, most users of the site own a dog, are selling a dog, or wanting to purchase a dog. So a perfect situation for a Veterinarian to begin a relationship with a new owner or be available for the traveling hunter in the case of an emergency.

Navigating Through An Ad Category

The procedures for navigating through ads are the same for all categories however there are category specific data with respect to filtering. In this example we will use the Dogs For Sale Section.

You can scroll through the ad listings by clicking on any of the photos on the right or left (1) of the currently active ad, you can also scroll by dragging the slider left or right (2) . You can also filter the listing to show specific detail in the list. For example you could specifically request only German Shorthaired Pointers, that are Finished Dogs, in the State of Michigan by selecting the criteria in the drop down boxes then clicking the "Fetch" button (3) .

When you scroll to the desired ad of interest you can get more detail by clicking on the following Icons.
1. Will display up 5 detailed photos
2. Will display a video/movie
3. Will pop up an email form to contact the advertiser
4. Will create a new window linking to the advertiser's Web site.
5. Will display the contact information of the advertiser
