I love dog parks. For me, they are a great way to exercise and socialize my energetic dog that lives in a small apartment with no yard. But unfortunately, there are risks that you must weigh when bringing your dog to one of these parks. Unhealthy Dogs. Your dog also needs to be spayed or neutered.

No dog is happier to be rescued. She put a dog bed outside with some food and water, and I’d see her checking on me about every five minutes. We dogs are wired by nature to be humans’ companions. After all, dogs have the longest history of co-habitation with humans of any animal. Get a street dog. I was safe.

One day while I was volunteering I met a little pit bull puppy who was recovering from a spaying. I had a couple of dogs when I was a kid, but I mostly grew up with cats. But I'm no dog expert. Is this a legitimate reason to put a dog down or is this just BS? The puppy seemed too thin to me so I asked about her story.

Most shelter animals are spayed or neutered, have been treated for worms, and have at least their first set of shots. Shift-It Tip: If you’re set on a purebred dog or cat, buy one from a rescue association instead of getting a pedigree from a breeder. Instead of buying toys, you can delight dogs and cats with stuff you already own.

From the feral cats of Project Treadstone to Charles' back surgery to problems with Violet's Vetsulin (insulin for dogs), we had more than our share of issues. Dogs have died from hypoglycemia due to Vetsulin and there is a class action lawsuit. Like many people with diabetic dogs, I haven't had major problems with Vetsulin.

Puppies are great but often people are much happier getting a dog who is older, and whose size and temperament is a known quantity. People can encourage other pet owners to spay or neuter their pet (link to our spay neuter page) to help prevent unwanted births. Thanks to Adopt-A-Pet.com for these great tips!

,” by Verlyn Klinkenborg (Editorial Observer, July 30), is right: “The rate at which dogs are purchased and euthanized in this country is not a sign of our affection for them. This crisis calls for mandatory spay and neuter legislation. It’s a sign of our indifference.” Breeders kill shelter animals’ chances to find good homes.
