Better Dog Care - Do you know where all those pet store puppies come from? "USDA Inspected Kennel" is just a fancy phrase for a puppy mill.

Missouri produces more puppies for pet shops than any other state. In fact, they produce almost as many puppies as all other states combined. One of the reasons that Missouri puppy mills flourish is that they are endorsed and promoted by the Missouri Department of Agriculture. ...

Better Dog Care - thought of the day: Do the people who are in favor of the proposed over-the-top "mandatory spay neuter" legislation in Ca and elsewhere realize that if it passes, the only legal source of purebred puppies will be large scale commercial breeding kennels/

This whole thing is so sad. I was talking to a fellow obedience club member at my Wednesday class and she says that even dogs competing in AKC venues may end up not being able to get a legal exemption. That's just crazy.
I'm very much in favor of S/N, at the appropriate time (and *always* before an animal is adopted out from a shelter), but this is going too far.

This totally makes me mad even though I'm in Texas! I can't believe they're mandating a MAJOR surgical procedure to REMOVE BODY PARTS! A decision that large is best left to the owner and their vet. The next dog I get (which will probably be another basset hound) I refuse to spay/neuter before 18 months if it isn't already *fumes*

Better Dog Care - thought of the day: it's not specifically the seeds of grapes that are toxic to dogs! Even seedless grapes can cause kidney failure and are not safe to feed, but grape seed oil and grape seed extract are unproblematic.

Although Cesar is great at what he does... I don't believe his type of training works for all dogs, nor do I believe people should you his methods. They can and do cause more damage than good .... How many calm assertive people do you see working with their behavior problemed dogs LOL... I've never seen any...most are frustrated LOL

It's more like "Cesar is made to look good on TV at what he does" - behind the scenes things usually don't work out that well and many dogs relapse as soon as he's out of the picture. Sadly that's the part the public doesn't get to see though.
