 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 (6) In early December, a 29-year-old Sheboygan man, Chouncey A. Love, tied a severely emaciated pitbull to a stake in an alley as 10 inches of snow dropped. The dog weighed only 26 lbs, half of what she should have weighed, registering a 1 on a body scale of 1 to 9. A healthy dog should [...] By Admin - Deanna, on February 26th, 2009 |
Comments (9) Now this is just cute! I would love to see if mine got into something like this. Imagine all the exercise they would get and there’d be no damage throwing a ball around the house, yes, I throw a tennis ball in the house.

Comments (7) Well, not all of the charity trust anyway. The trustees of The Leona M. and Harry B.

Comments (1) A dog trained to detect the presence of peanuts may help save an 8-year-old girl’s life in Monument.
