come home? Dogs are a constant companion, a loyal friend, a loving soul, but to many they have become more of a commodity than a member of our families. Every year more dogs are being abandoned, left on the streets to fend for themselves when they are no longer wanted or useful. If they are lucky dogs and puppies are taken to shelters or rehomed with a new family. Shelters, however, are not salvation, due to the overpopulation of domesticated animals there isn 't enough space for a dog to live…
My Dog, Lola As humans, we have the ability to love. Love is hard to explain, but for my whole life, I have been told that I have so much love to give, especially love towards animals. One animal that I love very much is my dog, Lola. Lola is a pure bred Rottweiler and her story begins with the end of our former dog, Maggie’s story. Maggie was a rescued Rottweiler and when she passed, I, along with my family, wanted another female “Rottie” in the house. Unfortunately, months of searching left us…
most people realize that Pet Care pet insurance would have been a really good idea. Many dogs and cats have some genetic illnesses but these do not make you love the pet any less. It can however become expensive to treat as they get older. There are other cases where chronic illnesses can affect a pet because of an incident that occurred when they were younger that requires long term treatment. Both of these types of care can be very expensive. Very few people have pet care in their normal…

thought to myself, “What type of dog should we get, I really don't know?” All that really matters is what the dog looks like and how it acts. Mom and Dad were taking Autumn and I somewhere and I was really, really scared. I didn't know were my Dad was taking Autumn and I. Once we got there we saw a lot of dogs and puppies. In a very happy voice I told them, “ Awwww cute puppys and dogs, Mommy can we get that one please!” then my mom says “Honey we are looking for a dog for your dad and Autumn…
of three to seven days, it attacks the canine’s tonsils or lymph nodes first so it can attract lymphocytes which are a type of white blood cells. Then, the virus hides on the lymphocytes so it can get into the bloodstream so it can attack the bone marrow, and will cause a shortage of white blood cells. Finally, it will get into the small…
However, research into the origins of dogs indicates that dogs did evolve from wolves, possibly as long as 100,000 years ago. More interestingly, dogs could not have developed without human intervention. So the story above, while fanciful, may not be too far from the truth. There are many similarities between dogs and wolves. For one thing, dogs and wolves are the same species, meaning that a dog and a wolf can produce offspring capable of reproducing. Not only are dogs and wolves similar in…
While conducting research on the domestication of dogs, I found two things in common: studies show that dogs have been domesticated more than once and that the domestication of dogs traces back to the Middle East and Europe. (Saey, 2016; “Where did humans turn wolves into domesticated dogs?”, 2015; “New Take on Man's Friendship With Fido; Surprising findings emerge about domestication.”, 2016). “New Take on Man's Friendship With Fido; Surprising findings emerge about domestication” (2016)…
looked around for one but none were cheap enough. We didn’t get one for a while. My brother and I were really sad about it. We wanted a puppy super bad because loved playing and our other dog didn’t play. We looked for months online too, and came up with cute names. Then it happened, we found one! We found a dog that we loved. They didn’t really have…
