Finally, you will be asked if you want to use a date filter. If you choose to, you can limit found matches to animals found (or brought into the shelter for shelter animals) between two dates. This can speed up the time taken to perform the match - particularly if your databases are quite large. It also eliminates animals who seem to be a very good match, except they were found 2 years ago etc.
