 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 (13) So often I hear from people, “I’m just one person, I can’t do anything,” and I wonder if people really know just how strong and powerful “just one person” can be.
