He's not doing it for the money; he cited how stressful it is to continue running the service and his inability to develop it beyond what he's capable of.

then why sell it ?
he should have no problem giving the website away for free to whomever will take the responsibilities of the project
if he can not take care of the dog software then he should take it to the dog software dropoff shelter
