 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. Please, won't you help me! All articles on this site, unless otherwise attributed, are copyrighted to and property of Deanna Raeke.

Comments (2) Well, gotta say this is an original reason to enact a law that will discriminate against specific dog breeds. In this case, Lancaster, CA has enacted legislation against pitbulls and Rottweilers in what they say is an anti-gang law. There’s no denying that gangs and thugs and wannabes tend to gravitate toward what they perceive as [...] By Admin - Deanna, on January 30th, 2009 |
Comments (3) As the AKC does every year, they have released their list of the top 10 dog breeds for 2008 and again the Labrador Retriever is number one. More than twice as many Labs were registered last year than any other breed. The list shows the bulldog as an up and comer again last year though. 2008 [...] By Admin - Deanna, on January 30th, 2009 |
Comments (5) Update 7/27/09 – Once Doomed, Now Famous “Devil Dog” Visits Old Stompin Grounds – VIDEO I know there are quite a few Cesar Millan fans out there so you guys will get a kick out of this story. Amazing that one tiny dog, rescued by a pit bull rescue can be scarier than any [...] By Admin - Deanna, on January 29th, 2009 |
Comments (4) Seems everyone on getting in on the act and it’s a good thing. This is serious and needs to be treated that way. I am seeing more and more manufacturers pulling treats that were made with peanut butter since the PCA did a voluntary recall due to salmonella. I think Walmart was the first or [...] By Admin - Deanna, on January 29th, 2009 |
Comments (3) No matter how bad you feel or how bad your day is, just seeing your dog, getting those sloppy kisses and furry hugs always seems to make things better. Now imagine what a treat it is for seniors in a nursing home who are ill or alone. One furry face and wagging tail is powerful [...] By Admin - Deanna, on January 29th, 2009 |
Comments (11) You all remember when there was all the hoopla last year when dog cloning came out big in the news then in July the company, BioArts, auctioned off a few spots for people to have their dogs cloned? Anyway, one Florida couple, the Ottos, was one of the “lucky” winners in the auction and they [...] By Admin - Deanna, on January 28th, 2009 |
Comments (15) What a heartless piece of trash! On January 16, 20-year-old Tella Bush of Gary, IN, called the Humane Society of Northwest Indiana to pick up a dead dog. Humane Society director, Betty Clayton and another employee went to the 602 Illinois St. address and found the dog snow-covered and frozen inside its makeshift doghouse. Bush [...] By Admin - Deanna, on January 28th, 2009 |
Comments (4) Joey, a 3-year-old Chocolate Labrador is a typical dog, frisky and playful but unusually quiet. He seldom ever barks. Now Joey is being hailed as a hero by his North Tonawanda, NY family. When 81-year-old Ted Samborksi took Joey outside for a walk on New Year’s Eve, he slipped in the snow and ice and fell [...] By Admin - Deanna, on January 28th, 2009 |

Note these faces well, they are the faces the two people so sick and sexually depraved that it is beyond the minds of rational people to even begin to understand how they could do what they did! There no way to account for the sick, depraved workings of some people’s [...] |
