My experiences with finding the right dog by Rich Spencer
I thought I would post this to see if others are in this same situation and also to allow those in shelters and rescue societies to know at least what some of us are thinking. We recently lost our 9 year old Basset (whom we got from a Basset rescue group and were very good and helpful) and decided...

SUGGESTIONS for apartment dog by Rich
We have a small apartment in NYC. 9 to 5 We would take the dog to a business which cares for dogs and has lots of open space. We prefer a dog that doesn't shed too much. The dog should be house trained. Perhaps an older dog without excessive energy? I lean toward an older Labrador Retriever. ANY...

Need Advice and Help in placing 4 dogs in a no-kill shelter by Tara O.
Rescues and no-kill shelters are not boarding facilities for people who want to get rid of their dogs for a while and then retrieve them. If one of them has aggression issues, the dog will likely be rejected or euthanized after being admitted. I'd strongly recommend doing spot-visits,...

1 Attachment(s) dogs and young kids by Support Your Local Community Band
List, I have consistently advised people against having dogs and small children at the same time. Of course, I get many replies that "we have never had a problem" , "our dogs are sweet" "the kids know to leave the dog alone" and all kinds of other lame rationalizations.

Options for adopting out my dog. by Chris C.
I have a mixed breed dog, about 5 years old. He has been a wonderful dog for us, but has shown several instances of aggression - some unprovoked. He does not respond well to the vet, or being caged. We have a new baby (common problem here I imagine) and we no longer feel comfortable keeping him....

Need home in Sacramento CA for Missy by Robin
Missy is a wonderful 1 1/2 year old golden retriever/shepherd/akita mix. Her only problem is submissive urination which we can't get under control because she perceives new hubby as "big dog", causing more problems in the home. Any leads on finding a good home?

Humane Society, a few questions... by Marty
Do you think non-euthanizing shelters are more humane than shelters that euthanize? Do you think there is adequate space and cleanliness for the animals kept at local Humane Society shelters? Marty

good "family dog" recommendation by THW
We are looking to adopt a 2-4 year old medium sized dog from a rescue group. Most important characteristic we are looking for is a dog that gets along great with kids, with no aggression whatsoever. Some folks I know are suggesting we consider English Setters, English Springer spaniels and...

PETA's Chained Dog Crusade by [email protected]
Any thoughts here on PETA's latest crusade? I really don't accept the premise that a dog chained to a cable-run is worse off than a dog in a pen or a dog in a tiny backyard. My two dog runs are 50' long with a 15' chain and are mulched with wood chips and are under shade trees. The dogs are...

Questions about unwanted dogs by Scott T. Jensen
1) What happens to the dogs after they've been killed by the pound? 2) What is currently being done to reduce dogs from being abandoned by their masters? I just watched a documentary about dogs and part of it was on the sad fact that an eighth of all of them are abandoned by their masters and/or...
