@3:37 PM. August 10, 2010 Velvet, our wonderful fur-baby of five years, was buried in the back yard.
I feel like my heart is breaking in two. We do not know what happened, but when I found her it was already too late. All a vet would be able to do is tell us what happened. We don't even have...
The meeting was very long but during the tour I got about 60 photos of dogs and cats, just for the heck of it.
I'll be walking and socializing the dogs in the adoption section for the most part. I also asked to be part of the photo team because they really need much better images of the...
Yes. Scent hounds are bred to follow scents and that's exactly what they'd do. Growing up my dad let our beagles run free though. Our basset too. They eventually came home but I can only imagine all the problems they could have run into.
I'd suggest investing in a nice sturdy hogwire fence...
Earlier this week I emailed several shelters in my area offering to volunteer. I was excited, eager to do something in this field for quite a while. I've been applying as a volunteer for several years. At long last, I have a response!
Today is the new Volunteer Orientation and I'll be leaving...

Alternative? Turn the crate against the wall. XD
-hugs- This made me tear up. Be strong and think of good memories. Remember that Legacy you speak of and hopefully it'll be easier. I think that name would be an awesome name, especially because of the meaning behind it.
I think slim/average is just her type. If she's super energetic then she's going to burn off those calories. It may not hurt to add an extra meal for a couple of months, but in the end she'll balance of where she's supposed to be anyhow. Some dogs tend to look lean unless you practically cram...
Not sure if everyone has heard about this yet. Vetsulin is recalling some of their product because they were having issues with the consistency of it.
So if you use Vetsulin or know somebody that does let them know about the recall so they can talk to their vet. Not all vets have switched...
This site is a home remedy for curing itchy skin on dogs. I think it may be helpful.
Mosquitoes are a pain.
Try finding a non-toxic bug spray and spraying both of you with it when mosquitoes are at their worst. Remember not to spray the face!
