In the category:

http://www.dmoz.org/Society/Relationships/Weddings/Personal_Pages/

The site:

http://www.shariandken.org/

appears to be dead.

#446 mostly done, except where I've found the hidden "not always free" or where I've asked for a second opinion.

In category:
http://www.dmoz.org/Recreation/Pets/Dogs/Directories/

The following listing is not a directory at all but a store selling dog products.
Sniffbutt.com
http://www.sniffbutt.com/

Also when you click on Enter the Store, the URL changes. Not sure if this is actually considered a re-direct or not.

#454 handled - thanks.

#458 dealt with. Many thanks.

http://www.gardenfitness.com
The site is listed in this category.

http://www.dmoz.com/Health/Fitness/Advice_and_Guides/

This site is about turning lawn care into fitness techniques but not exactly a a guide that gives much advice about fitness as a whole.

This site also contains gardening tips which is also not relevant to the category Advice_Guides category.

This site fails so be relevant to this category making it more lawn care relevant than fitness.

The category would be more relevant in this category.
