Looking after pets should be acknowledged as an important responsibility as well as a pleasure. Pets come to depend on their owners, trusting them to do what’s best for them, and every owner should make the effort to treat their pet right. Options for treats. Choosing cat treats.

They are not necessarily the biggest African animals, but represented those that were considered a real hunter’s worthy prey or “game” – the African Elephant, Cape Buffalo, Black Rhinoceros, Leopard and king of the jungle, the Lion (which of course doesn’t inhabit jungle but savanna!).

Nearly every dog owner buys a collar for their new pet but few are aware of the long history and many different types of collars. Archaeology has demonstrated that humans were crafting collars for their animals at least 7000 years ago and the possibility that this is a conservative estimate is large.

Here are some myths: Falconry birds are essentially pets. If you are a bad hunting partner and do not flush enough game, the raptor will fly off when released and not return. I learned that I knew nothing of falconry. If anything, falconry birds like the above red-tailed hawk are a hunting partner, especially wild caught birds.

Post a picture on Susan Wilson’s Facebook page and explanation of how your dog (or turtle, or human, etc!) She goes to the door, rejects the notion of going out, turns toward her dinner; goes back to the door, because clearly this human is not listening. I also wanted you to know about the Who’s Your Good Dog Campaign.

Nicole at Alec's Story writes: One of my pet peeves, so to speak, is the concept of “unconditional love” as attributed to dogs by humans. That's a pet peeve of mine, too, along with "children are so honest!" When off leash and permitted to do anything, Charles wants to play racing games. unconditional love.

Emmie loves her pets. She was never happier playing with the pet. Her mother came and sat next to Emmie while she held Carnie in her lap and petted him. Comforting an eight-year-old while she pets her dying hamster, dripping tears…it is easier to catch a breeze in your hands and return it to its home. Carnie was sluggish.

Let the games begin. We have a tendency as a society to anthropomorphize our animals, especially our pets. We give them human names and provide them with the same amenities we enjoy as humans. We have simply decided that certain animals are pets (and we have domesticated them) and certain animals are food.

Hare could run a very profitable shell game. No one in the room–neither dog nor human–can tell which cup hides the biscuit. Understanding a pointed finger may seem easy, but consider this: while humans and canines can do it naturally, no other known species in the animal kingdom can. “Humans are unique.

During a brief moment of insanity after the death of my pet kitty Brady in 1991 (at the age of 17), I attended Vermont Law School to study Environmental Law. I had developed the arrogant attitude that my existential plight was unique among humans. I'll get back up to speed for next week, but without further ado.
