Dog Neglect - The sad tale of Pickles

I will never understand why people simply abandon their pets. Why would anyone put their puppy out on the streets to fend for himself?

This story is an example of what happens to one Pomeranian puppy that is so cruelly discarded.

Sally Anderson tells us the story of Pickles and his physical and emotional trauma. He was also suffering from box dog syndrome.
But stay tuned and be sure to watch the second video.

A spoiled dog is an unhappy dog…

Dogs are happiest when they feel safe and secure with a dominant pack leader. That pack leader needs to be Y.O.U! It’s fine to show your dog attention and dole out the toys and dog chews, but only in the proper timing and environment.

This video shows what happens when a nervous insecure dog is in control.

Man’s best friend is now Dog’s best friend

Dog’s are one of the most forgiving and loving creatures on this Earth. They are also one of the most loyal and courageous, as this video shows.

Dogs have proven time and time again that they will risk their own lives in service to others, not for the reward of a dog bone or two, but out of fierce loyalty, love and the incredible giving nature bestowed upon them by their Creature.

This video will both shock you and inspire you.

And just so you know…. Both dogs survived:-)

Many pet owners don’t realize that warm stuffy homes combined with thick furry winter coats can cause their pets to overheat indoors, even when the temperatures dip to freezing outside.

Dog and Pet Doors

The variety of pet doors available has certainly increased over the past few years. I’m amazed at not only the quantity but also the quality of these dog doors.

Security has always been an issue with dog doors. Many pet owners are concerned about stray animals coming into their homes through a pet door, however with the new magnetic dog doors, and the special collars used by your pet, these issues are now a thing of the past.

Most pet owners can train their pets to use a dog door within minutes using all natural dog treats as an enticement to come through the door. A smart dog will immediately come through for a bully stick.
