One of the most requested features has been an notification system when new ads are published. We are very excited to share our dog alerts system. It’s possible to get an email alert when a dog that matches your preference is posted for sale on dogs.ie. The great thing about this is that it saves you checking back every day, or even checking back a few times a day, of course you are more than welcome to check in as often as you wish !
To get started, simply visit https://dogs.ie/alerts/sale to create your alert and get email alerts straight into your inbox as new ads are created.
You will find a link to alerts under your Profile tab, Profile Β» Alerts https://dogs.ie/alerts/sale
Dog alerts
You can specify the following search criterion:
- Breed (up to 5 different breeds)
- Age
- Sex
Alerts run for 45 days and they can be cancelled / paused at any time. If you are still looking after 45 days for that perfect dog, you will need to log back in to restart the monitoring of ads. You will get a notification the day before your alert expires.
