Blogging Ain’t No Walk in the Park

When I set up this site for my dogs (chiefly the pug as he’s the most camera friendly), I didn’t anticipate how much work it would be just to combat the spammers.  I set up an email address that would forward to my main one & didn’t realize until today that the reason I get no mail from any pet lovers is because my mailbox is full of spam comments being held in moderation.  I realize there is probably a bot or other program that randomly submits stupid “comments” with links to Viagra sites on any site with open comments, but I really had no clue it was *that* prolific.  924 spam comments from 1 month?  Is anyone really buying this crap on-line?  Go see your doctors, people!

On the hunt for better comment filtering & then a walk in the snowy dog park to align forces with our dog compatriots!
