 Dog Lover & Proud Pet Parent Passionate when it comes to my canine companions as well as dogs everywhere, it's my mission to raise awareness of any issues that affect them, from their health, food and nutrition and training to their welfare. Canine advocacy is something that everyone who cares about dogs needs to be aware of and we all need to share that and raise our voice for those who cannot speak for themselves.  Andrea Rosebrock Andrea has come onboard FTLTD to help out by contributing some stories and following-up with her "Justice Round-Up" series. For the Love of the Dog is my small effort to do that.

Note that the Alpha dog has a muzzle hold on the gator preventing it from breathing, while another dog has a hold on the tail to keep it from thrashing. The third dog attacks the soft underbelly of the gator. By Admin - Deanna, on January 30th, 2008 |
Comments Abandoned pets are a damn shame and there’s no excuse except for people without a heart or conscience who don’t think they need an excuse for anything.

Selective breeding over the centuries has minimized and refined this trait significantly, but there’s just [...] By Admin - Deanna, on January 28th, 2008 |
