I got this from a friend...sounds pretty good to me.  You can give away 
your old stuff (junk to you) to someone who actually wants it...and who 
knows?  You might get something you've wanted for a long time and can't 
find elsewhere...and it's all free.
I think this IS dog related, because you might have crates or want 
crates or other equipment (like those horse stall mats) that somebody 
else is willing to give you just to have them hauled away..........
here's the story...and the website is http://www.freecycle..org

The Freecycle Network was started in May 2003 to promote waste reduction 
in Tucson's downtown and help save desert landscape from being taken 
over by landfills. The Network provides individuals and non-profits an 
electronic forum to "recycle" unwanted items. One person's trash can 
truly be another's treasure!


    How does it work?


    When you want to find a new home for something -- whether it's a
    chair, a fax machine, piano, or an old door -- you simply send an
    e-mail offering it to members of your Freecycle group.  Or, maybe
    you're looking to acquire something yourself. Simply respond to a
    member's offer, and you just might get it. After that, it's up to
    the giver to decide who receives the gift and to set up a pickup
    time for passing on the treasure.

One main rule: Everything posted must be free, legal, and appropriate 
for all ages.

Non-profit organizations also benefit from The Freecycle Network. Post 
the item or items you want to give away and a local organization can 
help you get it to someone in need.


    Who can use The Freecycle Network?

Think globally, recycle locally. The Freecycle Network is open to all 
communities and to all individuals who want to participate. Freecycle 
groups are run by local volunteer moderators from across the globe who 
facilitate each local group - grassroots at its best!
