 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.

Comments Thank You for bringing this foster dog into my life. Had I not made the decision to participate in rescue, I would never have had the chance to meet him. If I had sat here comfortably in my home and said “I already have four dogs and I know that I couldn’t [...] By Admin - Deanna, on August 30th, 2008 |

Comments On August 21, a bag of a dozen newborn puppies were found tossed in a dumpster at the dump site on Montana 82 in Somers, only two of the German wire-haired pointer puppies survived.

The Dachshund Rescue of North America is just one of the rescues involved in helping care for the rescued dogs and puppies. I was asked to pass along this request for help.

Comments They should never have released this nutcase!! First Robert Brunette, 45, of Boulder Creek, doesn’t allow authorities on his property, then when they come back with a warrant, he runs from police who have to issue a warrant for his arrest. Finally he turns up days later in Los Gatos on July 31, [...] By Admin - Deanna, on August 29th, 2008 |

Comments In May I told you about a bill proposed by Pennsylvania State Rep. John Galloway, that would allow Pennsylvania municipalities to pass their own dangerous dog ordinances and not have them superseded by state law. Currently Pennsylvania has a state law, the “Dog Law”, enacted in 1982, which prohibits individual municipalities from enacting their own breed [...] By Admin - Deanna, on August 28th, 2008 |
Comments What a damn shame that laws are not sufficient to charge someone with animal cruelty or neglect after their dog is almost cut in half after they leave a harness on it and it grows out of it. Dana Jones will be getting off scott-free after Bartholomew County prosecutor Bill Nash has decline to file charges [...] By Admin - Deanna, on August 28th, 2008 |
