Since Halloween is approaching I found a site on Halloween Safety, it gives tips on preventing your dog from getting sick. Please go in check it out it could be the difference between life or death.

Halloween is Near!

October 17th, 2006

smallAs halloween is approaching, I have really been wondering what I should dress Bailey, my miniture schnauzer up as. This I’m sure sounds silly , but in fact many people do it and spend a lot of money. I am going to give you a web site for great costumes for your furry friend. I would purchase your costume as soon as you can to make sure you get it in time and that it will fit. Also it is important that you get your dog a costume that they will enjoy wearing.


Homecoming!!!!!

October 17th, 2006

For all of you out there who are eager and ready for homecoming, it is finally here. I am so excited because my whole family is coming up including my beloved golden retriever, Elle. My mother told me today that she was bringing Ellie, I was beside myself. I am a senior this year and every year during walk arounds there are so many dogs out and about. I always tell my mom to bring the dog because Ellie would absolutely eat it up. She loves to be around people and enjoys any attention she can get. So as my last homecoming is approaching, Ellie will finally get to experience a homecoming. I urge everyone who has a dog, that loves to be around people and is well behaved to bring them to walk arounds. It is a way for them to socialize and enjoy themselves.

October is Adopt a Shelter Dog Month!

October 12th, 2006

There are so many dogs in need of a good home, if you are thinking of purchasing a dog this is the month to save a dogs life and gain a great companion. October is the month for people to go out and adopt dogs from shelters. Most towns have a humane society or other forms of shelters, I urge you to go out to one of these venues and look at the dogs. I adopted a dog last year and it has turned out to be an amazing pet. These animals are looking for simply someone to love them and keep them company. If you are not in the position to purchase a dog right now, you should still go to these venues to volunteer. Think long and hard before going out and getting a brand new puppy, there are many other dogs that need homes too.

Your Dog is Not As Smart As You Think!

September 19th, 2006

popkwaz_copy.jpgI was searching for funny stories about dogs and found a hilarious story about a dog crashing while trying to drive a car. I have linked a story about a car crash that took place in China. Even though you think your dog may be smart and understands, try not to put your life and the life of others in danger. If you do feel the need to have your dog drive your car, find a secluded place to try to spare the lives of others. In the future dogs may be able to drive, but for now just let them hang out the window.

It is going to be an eventful weekend with Bailey’s first birthday party. Bailey happens to be my miniture schnauzer who is turning one this weekend.
