Alabama’s animal cruelty and animal abuse laws and statutes are massive, as a Felony or Class B misdemeanor, due to the high numbers of dog abuse cases in the state. Alabama is listed as one of the top 10 states with the worst numbers of animal abuse in the nation. The key difference between the [...]

This book took me into another world. I am a dog lover and dog author of children’s books. I know dogs and consider them to be wonderful. However, I had no idea, until I read this book, of the extraordinary world of living with multiple dogs, dogs who needed a home, dogs who had been [...]

She had a white body and legs, a black bottom and a black head with one tiny white spot on her nose, and her fur was a mass of tight curls. If you glanced at her you immediately swivelled and looked again, because she looked unnervingly as if she was wearing a pale shade of [...]

There have been many cases [...]

Some of the phytonutrient foods are fruits, teas, nuts, vegetables, grains and legumes … seen the more healthier dog foods, as compared to the lower-priced dog food made from meat by-products and left-over grease and [...]

At first I mistook her for another dog who had been adopted out, and I thought she had been brought back. She had the same unusual oriental-looking narrow eyes, but a closer look showed her mouth was darker in colour than Chloe’s. Still I wanted a name that sounded like her, so she became Clover. [...]

It is the day after Christmas, and all is not well. Over the holidays, we watched the “12 Dogs of Christmas,” thinking what an appropriate story this is … a  type of story that can easily span years and centuries about children saving cute little dogs from the horrors of dog fighting rings.

We received a book in the mail by authors Jeffrey L. Barnes and Kristen M. Levine, titled “Pampered Pets on a Budget,” from Fetching Communications.
