What are votes?

Treats are explained in the FAQ linked below:

https://www.rover.com/community/faq/

They're supposed to reflect contributions to this online community board. You are given 30 treats a day to spend, voting on answers and questions by other members.

There is a plus sign and a minus sign on the left. If you click on the plus sign, you will be giving another member here 10 treats, but only 1 is subtracted from your daily allocation. If you click on the minus sign (down voting), you are in effect saying that the information in an answer or question is wrong, bad or not helpful to the community. When you down vote, you lose a few points yourself.

I see that you have 11 treats. That means you have received a vote on a question you've posed.
