I just wanted to give my 2 cents, since this is open discussion. Is there any legal action that can be taken if I find a pet left in a car at the supermarket? http://www.allpetsnews.com/blogpost.php?id=11 2006-07-26 15:45:52 The purpose of this blog article is for you to talk about your pets. Feel free to tell us a story about your pet, or maybe just comment on your pet likes and dislikes. This is your spot for open discussion. http://www.allpetsnews.com/blogpost.php?id=11 2006-06-22 22:34:55 Ahhhhhhhh. Life is hectic, and there is nothing like just sitting with a dog or a cat. I've been so busy getting a new rescue/spay/neuter program up and running, taking care of my family, which includes a newborn, and not taking care of myself at all. It's amazing how just a few moments spent in peaceful introspection with two of my favorite and long-time canine friends fixed me right up. Everyday, I walk about 1/4 mile down the lane to the edge of our property where I meet the bus with my children, twice. Toby the Dalmation and Sierra the Weimaraner follow me everywhere, so they come too. Trailing not far behind are Mr. Cheeks and Lily, two formerly feral cats. After we get past the "testing phase" where they head towards the road to see if their boundaries have changed and find they have not, my beloved dogs settle in next to me companionably. They lift their noses in the humid air and sniff in the scent of trees and hundreds of other things. For that amount of time, we are all content to sit and just BE. This is a time I think I'd never take if I wasn't forced to meet the bus twice a day, but it is essential. This is the time when I grow my energy back. When my mind is finally free to think creatively. Toby and Si Si seem to get a lot out of it as well. Usually, they clamor for my attention, but while we wait, they seem to know they have it, without a touch at all. We commune. Now, this is going to sound silly to some, but dogs know. They don't need words, they know. It's a basic tenet of their being, and something we forget because we get lost in the details of our speech, and all the social aspects that go with it. Toby and Si Si are not encumbered by speech. They know they have a job to do, and one of the things dogs do really well is the process of waiting. ESPECIALLY when the waiting is done with their person. So we all stop and wait, and think, and recharge.

Or do you know a thing or two about pet care? "All Pets Radio", the premier pet internet radio station is looking for writers, to write for the love of it. Whether you are a literary professional or an amateur writer, we want to hear from you. All stories and articles sent will be published on our website. http://www.allpetsnews.com/blogpost.php?id=12 2006-06-22 22:48:04 You are not alone! I, too, make sure that I spend quality time with each of my three girls every day. The fancy material things are good enough for some companion animals and their owners, but for me and my girls there is nothing that can compare to the emotional connections we build through quality time. The girls know how to give mom "that look" when they're ready to connect! <3 While I don't consider it a form of pampering (more like a necessity) I wanted to share my new business with you. I believe that our companions deserve the same medical treatment as us and so I have created v911. It is a veterinary emergency medical service and I invite you to take a look around our website: http://v911service.com. http://www.allpetsnews.com/blogpost.php?id=13 2007-01-19 20:02:53 There are many different ways of pampering an your dog. Some people use fancy clothes, or themed dog beds. Those types of things are fine, I have nothing against them. But in my case I treat my dogs like children. Therefore one of the greatest ways I pamper them is to give them "Quality time". http://www.allpetsnews.com/blogpost.php?id=13 2006-06-28 09:28:06 Just like humans each dog has their own style, looks, and temperment. What do you feed makes the perfect dog? I just thought I would starts some chatting here. What do you think? http://www.allpetsnews.com/blogpost.php?id=14 2006-10-07 15:43:34 It is my pleasure to announce the launch of the All Pets Radio Monthly Photo contest. Here's how it works. You submit your favorite pet photo each month, and then visitors to the site get to vote on which photo is the best. We will pick one winner per month that has the highest vote count. http://www.allpetsnews.com/blogpost.php?id=15 2006-10-07 15:50:55 Here at Citizens for Pets in Condos, we get all kinds of sad letters about people in condos who are being asked to get rid of their pets. These people tell me over and over how much their pets mean to them, especially in these high anxiety times. To read the letters and to sign our petition to allow pets in condos, go to www.petsincondos.org. http://www.allpetsnews.com/blogpost.php?id=16 2006-12-28 23:32:17 They even know your feelings better than you do. true They not only know, they know before you http://www.allpetsnews.com/blogpost.php?id=16 2006-12-01 15:27:04 They wont hold a grudge. They wont leave you for someone else. They know how to show their affection. They even know your feelings better than you do. Who are they? Well they go by many names, but most of the world just calls them Pets. Pets are wondrous creatures whose powers go beyond that of spiritual or magical. Perhaps that power is what the world needs more of. http://www.allpetsnews.com/blogpost.php?id=16 2006-11-09 08:27:03 BRAVO , THEY SURE ARE A BLESSING, MORE TIMES OVER EVERY DAY. THANK YOU FOR A WONDERFUL MESSAGE. http://www.allpetsnews.com/blogpost.php?id=16 2006-10-23 11:41:00 This story is so true! http://www.allpetsnews.com/blogpost.php?id=16 2006-10-19 22:33:01 Have you ever had a “cat” nurse? No, I’m not talking about Halloween fun at the hospital. A “cat” nurse is the best name I can use to describe an amazing feline phenomenon that I have personally witnessed. They can’t do CPR or take your temperature, but make no mistake your cat loves you unconditionally and it shows. It’s one medicine that you won’t need a prescription for. http://www.allpetsnews.com/blogpost.php?id=17 2006-10-14 00:13:48 i have a pit bull and i love him he is one of my kids. i would never fight him and hate people that do. when i take him to the park people get scared and call the police. i live in iowa and i am allowed to have him as long as i have 30,000 insurance for him..DONT FIGHT THEM LOVE THEMMM they are not violent unless u make them http://www.allpetsnews.com/blogpost.php?id=18 2007-01-03 15:37:05 Phoebe is a Staffordshire Bull Terrier, my second service dog, and my third bully breed. These are wonderful, loving family dogs, but they are being killed all across the U.S. because of ignorance and bad laws. People are constantly asking to pet Phoebe and telling me of their memories of past pet pit bulls that were great family dogs, but yet these laws are still being passed and these dogs are still dying. Why are we allowing a minority of people to destroy an entire breed of wonderful, loving, and loyal pets? It's because we're just average, nice family people, but our dogs need us to be more than that! We need to vow to write at least one letter per month, one email per month, and to convince one friend per month to vow to do the same thing - can you do that for someone who would give their life for you? Honestly, please don't leave this for your neighbor to take care of - every good person needs to stand up and defend these dogs - NOW! Please go to the web site shown in the posting above and go to http://www.mydogvotes.com. Then help to educate those who have been deceived by the media, don't remain silent - our gentle giants need all of us to speak up for them. Sincerely, http://www.allpetsnews.com/blogpost.php?id=18 2006-10-27 16:51:31 I have American Staffod who is in the Pitbull family . She is a big baby .

Thankyou Tammy http://www.allpetsnews.com/blogpost.php?id=18 2006-10-27 11:01:08 Hi all - My opinion of pit bulls was negative too, but I just wrote an article on pit bull abuse and fell in love with them in the process! I work at North Shore Animal League America and we recently brought in a beautiful female pit named Gracie who had been thrown off a 4-story building in Brooklyn and miraculously survived with only a broken leg. I did some research on pit bulls and learned so much about them – so much about how abused and misunderstood this breed is! You can read about Gracie here: http://www.nsalamerica.org/feature/pitbull/ And here is a follow up story with a pledge you can sign to end pit bull abuse here: http://www.nsalamerica.org/feature/pitbull/openletter.html And here is a great website all about pit bulls which I found in my travels that I also wanted to pass on: http://www.pitbullsontheweb.com/petbull/ Hope everyone passes this information along and helps to bring some needed love and attention to these awesome dogs. Best - Jorin www.animal-league.org http://www.allpetsnews.com/blogpost.php?id=18 2006-10-27 09:03:17 The answer to that question could be the one thing that legislators all over this country need to realize. I’m not writing this to bash anyone or scream about my dislike for the way specific breeds are being treated, but I am writing this in the hopes that somewhere sometime someone who makes these decisions will read this and then consider the results of their actions. http://www.allpetsnews.com/blogpost.php?id=18 2006-10-25 14:30:40 my pet chickens are the cutest in the world!!!!! http://www.allpetsnews.com/blogpost.php?id=19 2007-02-15 07:06:02 Isn’t it funny how we don’t realize what we have until it’s gone. Like the parent who pushes the kids off to college only to suffer from empty nest syndrome a week later, or like the guy that sells his hot rod only to spend the rest of his life drooling at ever car show in town. Wouldn’t it be nice if you could have someone show you in advanced the consequences of your actions or show you what the world would be should you never have been born? http://www.allpetsnews.com/blogpost.php?id=19 2006-10-27 23:53:51 Well, actually, just your opinion. We are developing a Listener Advisory Board. What that means is that you sign up to give us your likes and dislikes about the programming you hear on All Pets Radio. Should there be more music? What kind of music? What do you think of the talk programs we air? Is there an area of pet care that we are missing? Let us know! http://www.allpetsnews.com/blogpost.php?id=20 2006-10-28 00:29:06 Its not early its perfect timing. Thank You http://www.allpetsnews.com/blogpost.php?id=23 2006-12-02 14:00:04 All Pets Radio is trimming the tree early this year. Now through New Years, pets and pet lover’s alike can get into the holiday spirit together. In addition to the many quality pet information programs, All Pets Radio will be playing a wide variety of holiday favorites. http://www.allpetsnews.com/blogpost.php?id=23 2006-11-09 08:29:26 What a cool photo. Dachshunds get into the holiday spirit. http://www.allpetsnews.com/blogpost.php?id=25 2006-12-05 20:36:53 All Pets Radio is putting on a big Santa hat to give you the All Pets Radio Ultimate Pet Christmas Stocking! One lucky pet owner is going to win! http://www.allpetsnews.com/blogpost.php?id=26 2006-12-12 08:47:23 It is impossible not to notice how more and more people are winning their personal battles with legislation. There once was a time when two opposing parties could settle their differences by talking and compromising. Now though, it seems that the opposing side doesn’t even get their turn at the podium before some town council is voting into law some new ordinance that is stripping us of our freedoms. Pet owners everywhere are facing these battles everyday. http://www.allpetsnews.com/blogpost.php?id=27 2006-12-31 14:22:36 This last week one of the worst anti-pet laws to ever hit the law books was unleashed on Louisville, KY. Certainly the extreme animal rights groups are behind this latest fiasco to end all pet ownership period. http://www.allpetsnews.com/blogpost.php?id=28 2007-01-04 23:27:39 Have you ever noticed how a pet, can ease life’s tensions? We all are faced with stress and anxiety beyond our control sometimes. Take for example a simple visit to the in-laws. (If there is such a thing.) None of us like it. There is usually some family dispute that needs to be settled. Or in some cases such a mismatch in personalities that there is nothing to talk about. However, the whole ordeal can be made easy just by bringing your pet along. http://www.allpetsnews.com/blogpost.php?id=29 2007-02-12 20:57:19 It would seem that our blog got hi-jacked by a spammer. Please excuse the distasteful posts that resulted. We will see to it that it doesn't happen again. http://www.allpetsnews.com/blogpost.php?id=30 2007-03-06 07:15:43 Since some people have so much time on their hands that they have to spam our blog, we are temporarily removing the ability to comment on our blog. I am sorry about this, because I love to hear your thoughts. We will reopen the discussion as soon as possible. http://www.allpetsnews.com/blogpost.php?id=31 2007-03-06 07:23:20 Many of us pet owners are not aware of some of the basic dangers to our pets in our homes. Our nightmare: It was Easter Sunday, when my wife and I came home to green spots on the carpet. After further investigation it appeared to be vomit. Since the dog was in his cage we knew it must have been the cats. But at the time we couldn't tell which of our two cats it was. So the next morning we were greeted with another green spot at our bedroom door way. Again, not knowing which cat it came from. http://www.allpetsnews.com/blogpost.php?id=7 2006-06-20 09:07:49 Let's face it, how many times can you say, "take the puppy out often to go to the bathroom, you must train your dog to be a good member of your family and the community, and that it's a lot of hard work." Dog books over the years repeat basically the same message over and over just using a difference approach or training method. http://www.allpetsnews.com/blogpost.php?id=8 2006-06-20 09:19:17 Donut is an amazing animal http://www.allpetsnews.com/blogpost.php?id=9 2006-07-06 06:41:06 Hey Donut, I'm glad to see you have a grrreat home! I do too only my first humans were pretty scary. They didn't feed me much at all, hurt me and beated me up. It was very scary but I've been with my forever Mom & Dad for almost 7 years now, YIPPEE! They love me a lot and I get lots of good REAL food (meat and bones), and treats, and nutritionals. I have a lot of wrinkles and droopy eyes so I can beg REAL good hehe. I wanted to read your story bepaws your new Dad Bill told my mom all about it. Mom and Jeannie have the podcast, Animal Talk Naturally, which as you know is streamed here on All Pets Radio. Mom wrote a book with holistic veterinarian Jill Elliot, that just came out this month. You might want your Dad to get it bepaws it teaches the humans all about how to care for us naturally -and for us dogs that means eating MEAT & BONES, my favorite WOOF! The book is called "Whole Health for Happy Dogs" and humans can pick it up at http://www.TheBloomingdogs.com -hey, what does she mean by The Bloomingdogs anyway Donut? Whatever, humans, gotta love em. I'm VERY excited to see you in such a great home Donut dude. Hehe. Have a pawsitively tail waggin', forever home day, WOOF!" Shadrach the Neo Mastiff http://www.allpetsnews.com/blogpost.php?id=9 2006-06-21 20:43:17 Cute Story. Nice to hear from a fellow pit owner. http://www.allpetsnews.com/blogpost.php?id=9 2006-06-20 12:01:23 Recently a relative of mine got a new puppy. Which I was very excited about, because I feel that having a pet especially a dog is fundamental in childhood development. They found a puppy named Donut at their local shelter. He is a Jack Russell Terrier/Pit Mix. http://www.allpetsnews.com/blogpost.php?id=9 2006-06-20 11:58:02 =
