Despite the vast amount of dog breeds available today, herding dogs are popular pets with many people. While they are intelligent and loyal, herding dogs often require extra space and extra training before they fit well into a household. However, with their instinctual needs taken into account, herding dogs can become loving and wonderful pets.
A herding dog is a breed of canine that has been historically trained to take care of animal herds. They have been found all over the world in different terrains, taking care of different animals. Thus there are numerous herding breeds, each varying in size, appearance and temperament. The way in which each breed was trained to herd also varies. Some herding dogs use their size and force to herd, often blocking animals with their body or leaning against a herd to encourage movement. Others take a more aggressive approach, often quite predatory in nature. They crouch down low to the ground, roughly directing the herd. Herding dogs were also bred with an instinct for protecting their herds from outside predators.
Regardless of the type of herding dog, they all maintain the instinct to herd others. Oftentimes, faced with a lack of animals to herd, they will try to herd human members of their household. They are known for keeping track of people’s whereabouts and sometimes fiercely defending their owners against any potential threats. They are often quite intelligent and attentive, making great companions. However, they are also often very strong, both mentally and physically. Many may require special training before they adapt to a life without a herd.
Herding dogs are also known for great amounts of energy. They need a great deal of exercise in order to feel content. Their highly intelligent nature also demands mental stimulation, or else they may become bored and troublesome. In an environment that allows for frequent contact with others and lots of time outside, herding dogs do best.
Herding dogs include Collies, Shepherds, Sheepdogs, and Corgis. Though they are not as often used for actual herding today, they have not declined in popularity. With the right environment, training and attention, they make wonderfully devoted and rewarding pets.


A law has been passed in Harrisburg and signed by the governor to protect service dogs from aggressive canines. Apparently, a partially-sighted woman, fifteen years ago, experienced an attack on her guide dog by an unleashed dog. This happened to the same woman two more times, and during one attack, her dog was injured. She began lobbying, then, for protection.
At one of my writing group picnics a member told us about the law. The subject came up because a woman walking from a parking spot had been terrorized by the small pooch with the Napoleonic complex I wrote about a while ago. The dog charged off his porch, barking at my friend who has always been afraid of dogs. The owner apologized profusely, which she does repeatedly, but my friend said, “That dog is always off leash. Aren’t there leash laws?”
Though the dog is small, he no doubt has sharp teeth. I myself was nipped by one of those dogs-in-miniature, and his fangs broke the skin on my leg.
The attacking dog’s owner can now be fined $5000. I’ve decided to take the advice of another of my group members who went with his wife (a service dog user) to the signing of this law. I’ll tell the aggressive dog’s owner that she’ll only have to pay me $2000.


A bill pending in Congress would give pet owners tax deductions of up to $3,500 for taking care of their pets.
The proposal, H.R. 3501, was introduced by Rep. Thaddeus G. McCotter (R-MI). It also is known as the Humanity and Pets Partnered Through the Years or HAPPY Act.
Pet owners could deduct expenses for the care, including veterinary care, of a pet up to $3,500. Pets are defined as "legally owned, domesticated, live animals." However, animals used in research or in conjunction with a business or similar use won’t qualify.
The bill notes that according to the "2007-2008 National Pet Owners Survey, 63 percent of United States households own a pet" and "Human-Animal Bond has been shown to have positive effects upon people’s emotional and physical well-being."
Pet owners on various blogs are pushing passage for the bill. Others think there are more important issues facing the country. One creative individual has even come up with the form "W-K9," or Individual Pet Tax Return, which you can see here.
So what do you think? Worthy or a waste?


Frequently asked boarding questions
- Do the dogs sleep undercover?
Yes, all our runs have a completely insulated room, that is both dry and warm for your dogs to sleep and relax in. Each room has raised beds, so your dog can sleep in absolute peace. Every run has a shaded area, either by shade cloth, or by the shade created from trees.
- Do cats sleep undercover?
Yes, all our cats stay in a completely enclosed area, with access to an enclosed garden. Cats are a lot more agile than dogs, so each run is completely fenced off and covered for their safety.
- Do we board cats together
We have specialised facilities to board families of cats together, however, no cat family (even if it's just one cat) is ever in the same run as another.
- How do your seasons work?
We have broken up every year in four seasons. A summer season, easter season, mid-year season, and a festive season.
The brackets for each season is as follows:
- Summer season: 15 January - 31 March
- Easter season: 15 March - 30 April
- Mid-year season: 25 April - 30 November
- Festive season: 15 November - 15 January
Our seasons overlap slightly, as to ensure that you can easily book the full stay in one go. We advise you to select a season that contains your pet's entire stay duration. If fore some reason you can't, please feel free to contact our head office to make a manual booking
- Will my pet be supervised during feeding times?
Yes, each run is fed separately, so that all pets can be monitored carefully during feeding times. This also ensures that pet's on special diets eat only the food they are meant to eat.
In the dog runs, we also ensure that no dog goes without food in the social runs.
- Do I need to bring bowls?
No, we provide each and every pet with their own bowl when they arrive. We also have automatically refilling bowls of water in each run, so your pets never go without water.
- Do I need to leave my pet's bed?
bringing your pet's bed along, is at your sole discretion. We provide comfy beds for all pets staying with us. Please do note that if you bring your dog's bed with, there is a high probability that the bed will get chewed, as your dog sleeps with other dogs, and this can not be monitored.
- Does my pet need to be microchiped?
Preferably yes, this allows us to better identify your pet in the runs, and in the unlikely event that your pet becomes an escape artist, they can be easily located with all your contact information. If your pet is not microchipped, please let our head office know, so that we can make a special note about it.
- What happens if my dog gets ill?
We take every measure possible (including the spraying of 99.9% of germs based on the SANONDAF regulations), to ensure that your pet does not get ill. Nothing is guaranteed though, so if your pet get's ill, we will contact you, or your emergency contact as soon as possible to make an arrangement for your pet to visit the vet. We will keep in touch and let you know what the vet's verdict is, as well as medications required.
The vet visit, as well as the required medications will be invoiced to you.
- Can I bring my pet if it is sick, or has recently been sick?
Depending on what kind of illness your pet has. Please make sure you contact our head office prior to your pet's stay with us, to find out if they can come through, and if there are any updates to medications to keep your pet's health up.

Frequently Asked Questions
Unlike so many Long coat and Stock Coat West German Showline breeders, we don't take deposits from the unknown. Instead we select our prospective families to ensure our puppies have a safe, healthy and loving environment. Degenerative Myelopathy (DM Testing) and Hips and Elbows are not enough to just breed two German Shepherds, nor is just looks of the dog. We breed to the highest breed standards by following the German SV standard. Read More.
If you grew up with one like I did then you already know how loyal, smart and magnificent this breed is. Things to consider is your current work and living situation as these dogs need and deserve a place to play and your time. Also, the health and temperament of the parents as that can truly make a difference in your future family member.
Believe it or not the Longcoat German Shepherd sheds less. Also a Longcoat German Shepherd can be produced one of two ways. Either two stock coat parents both carry the autosomal recessive gene and can produce some in the litter. Or in our case, we only breed Longcoat or Longhair to the same to produce 100% Longcoat German Shepherd Puppies in every litter.
Why we love longcoat german shepherds and the difference between showline and working line.
I am often asked the question, “Why a longcoat german shepherd?” or what’s the difference between a longcoat GSD and a stockcoat GSD?
The answer is that these fluffy little teddy bears are the absolute cutest creatures on the planet! Often times two stockcoats may carry the autosomal recessive gene to produce a longcoat GSD. Meaning some of their siblings may be short haired. I swear my theory is that these little fuffballs steal the great genes. lol. No really, I find their bone structure, temperament, and personality wins over families many times over their standard coat siblings.

There’s an odd expression I heard years ago to describe a situation where there is a lot of something. It goes like this, “You can’t swing a cat without hitting (fill in a noun here).” So, if you were at a mall, you could say, “You can’t swing a cat without hitting a cell-phone kiosk.” It’s a colorful way to get your point across.
At our house, you can’t swing a cat without hitting… another cat.
We’re both dog and cat people, but since our wonderful dog, Toby, died a couple years ago, our old cat, Pumpkin, became our sole pet. Then, last summer, somebody who I will not name, decided to start feeding three stray cats that adopted us.
Eventually, we “fixed” them (don’t even get me going on that word), found a home for one, and kept two. Our house is too close to the road to have outside cats for very long, so we now have one old cat, and two one year-old cats in our home.
The two new ones are more energetic than the old man, not surprisingly. One is named Rex, due to his regal nose. He is very long and abnormally flexible. I think he may be liquid. His big thing is cleanliness. He grooms his brother against the brother’s will, and now that summer is here, it’s hard to walk through the house without having one’s toes cleaned.
His brother is a beautiful cat with markings on his side that look like a cinnamon roll. I wanted to call him Swirl, but we decided on Mazo, as in the maze pattern on his side. He’s very soft and athletic, and purrs very easily. He squeaks while he purrs. He also hates the idea that another cat is being petted, and consistently butts in to make sure he gets petted too.
The young cats have made the old cat more active, and even playful sometimes. He’s also lost some weight. He gets in dominance fights with Rex, and so far he is still the top cat. He has play fights with Mazo sometimes. But, he also gives the occasional ear lick to one or the other of the new cats. I think he kind-of likes having some company.
The cats are fun to have around, but keeping up with the fur is a constant battle. We buy Swifter Sweeper refills by the case, and a semi of cat litter pulls in once a week. The people at Mounds Pet Store recognize us from our many trips there for food.
Now and then, we hear a crash in the middle of the night, and they’ve scratched some furniture, because I lost the argument on de-clawing. But, otherwise, they’re nice to have around.
I’ve never actually swung a cat, and I’m pretty sure it’s just an expression. But, if I were to actually swing a cat, I’m certain I would hit another one.

Tonight I just got a call from my sister that one of my sisters Chihuahua’s gave birth to two puppies!!!!!! Both my sister’s dogs got pregnant around the same time so I can’t wait for the other one to give birth. I have been dying to get an Akita for the longest time but living in an apartment doesn’t seem like the best time to get such a large dog. I never liked Chihuahua’s or any small dogs for that matter until my whole family got them. I’m lucky that all the Chihuahua’s in my family are super nice and loving. I hate to admit it but every time I seem them I melt. My girlfriend and I are considering getting two of the puppies. She wanted one from the smaller Chihuahua and I wanted one from the chunky Chihuahua hahaha 🙂 We decided that we would probably get a boy and a girl and had come up with the names Milli and Mojo :p Finally I’ll be able to say I’ve got mojo lol! I’ll have to take a video of all the little puppies as soon as the other puppies are born.. I mean honestly how can you not fall in love with puppies?!

Anyway, we have a cat named Digit. Now for anyone who knows about him, they know that he is a very sweet cat. He just hides a lot. Mainly in my closet and under my bed. He is constantly tortured by our dog Carter. I actually feel bad for him a lot because he was the first one to be with me, then came the dog. I am sure he thinks that is entirely unfair.
I have actually had Digit since he was a baby kitten. He is a black cat that is rapidly approaching the age of 10. He may be older than 10 but I'm bad at birthdays. He sheds like crazy, hardly ever comes out of hiding, everynight sleeps between my legs (so I can't turn over cause he won't budge), and sheds like crazy. There are many reasons that I am tired of having a cat. One being the cat litter box. GROSS!!! I am so tired of changing it, and now my darling husband cleans it soooo much more than I do. Now that I am pregnant I can't change it, so that works out.
So being that there are many reasons that I am tired of having a cat, I actually got really sad last night, As I was lying in bed trying to fall asleep, my mind started to wander as it often does, and I thought to myself. "I haven't seen Digit in about a day!" Then I start thinking..."Oh my goodness, Levi let the dog out yesterday and when I put him down for a nap and came downstairs it was freezing because the back door was WIDE open! Oh my gosh! The CAT!!! I haven't seen him since that time!" Mind you this was now a day and a half later!!!!
I have actually had scares like this before and he is usually in the house and has found a new hiding spot. Robby always tells me he is in her somewhere and he is always right. So I call Rob and he doesn't answer. I am trying to remain calm and look everywhere I think he might be. He is not in any closet, not on any bed, not under any beds! After exhausting a search I actually go outside at 11:00p.m. and start calling for him. Like he is really going to run up to me and praise me for saving him from the outside world that he does not know at all. He's not a dog, remember. So after calling out the back, I think I should take a shot at the front yard. There is a farm to our right and I am really starting to panic. I don't know if it is because I won't have a cat anymore, I think it is more that if he did get out I will never know if he is hurt or dead. I will always feel guilty and wonder what happened to him. Then I realize, as much as a pain he is, I love that cat. He has been a part of my family before I even knew Robby.
So I go in the front yard, with tears in my eyes and start calling for him in the pitch black. I start to walk around the front of the house to see if he might be in the farmers field just chillin'. As I walk around the corner there is this completely still big black blob. My heart sinks because he's not moving and it's cold outside. He's old, remember. I stand there and say his name and he doesn't move. I am so sad. Then as I walk up to him, he MOVED!!! He walked toward me and let me pick him up and carry him inside. Please note, he never lets me pick him up without clawing my stomach with his back claws to get away! He's awesome!
He lets me cuddle him and I just keep telling him how sorry I am that he has not had food and has just been living as a wild man. He was so cold.
Thank the Lord, he is fine. He just ran right to the food and kept meowing at me. He got on the bed and I pet him like crazy. Cat hair flying everywhere from the shedding. (I am now washing the sheets) He wrapped himself up between my legs and we went to sleep. He was in the same spot when we woke up. Poor baby. He probably didn't sleep at all while in the jungles of Roanoke. He was probably trying to get back in the house the entire time.
So for all of you that laugh about the elusive cat that we have, that I always complain about. And for all of you who don't even know him and now feel empathy for him, know that he is loved. I am thankful to have my kitty back in the house, and I just pray he dies of natural causes some day, not because we left the door open and he thought the other side of the street was greener.

In their byline article for the Daily Journal titled “Pet Peeves in Your Divorce,” Partner Michael Reedy and Associate Maya Younes look at California’s recent law granting family law judges the authority to decide issues about pets in a divorce. Family courts were given the discretion to decide pet issues, but they are not mandatory. If a judge takes on issues about pets in a divorce, Michael and Maya say, the judge must consider “the care of the pet animal,” which may include feeding, medical care, shelter and safety.
Michael and Maya explain that the new law treats pets more like family members and gives judges the opportunity to assign sole or joint ownership. They explain that dogs are more likely to adapt to changing living situations than cats, and that other pets like fish, snakes and birds may be more difficult to transport between homes. They conclude by encouraging the parties to decide what is best for animals, since courts are not required to decide these issues.

Bio Ball provides a large surface area on which water-filtering microbes can grow. They are typically used in fish tanks and fish pond filters to transform potentially harmful ammonia into benign nitrates. You can use it in marine and freshwater aquarium filtration. Most new aquariums take 3-6 weeks to fully cycle, meaning that the nitrogen cycle can successfully process ammonia into nitrates. Place the bio balls in the stream of water running through your fish tank's filter. Although bio balls will catch some pieces of algae, they are not meant to be used as a physical filter. Installing them downstream of a filter membrane will help keep them from clogging.


Claw marks on the door frames and chewed up couch cushions strain the relationship between pet and owner. It can be stressful knowing what to do when your pet is just determined to scratch up your home’s furniture but here are some ways you can keep your pets from wrecking your home.
- Training. Every time you see your cat climbing on the table or couch, spray her with water. It’s a harm free way to teach her where she shouldn’t go. If you catch your dog shredding something, firmly say, “No!” and offer him something appropriate to chew.
- Give alternatives to your furniture. If your cat likes to scratch, give her an awesome scratching post. Puppies chew when they’re teething, or out of an insatiable desire to play. If your dog feels the need to chew, make sure he has toys. A bored dog or cat can exhibit all kinds of negative behaviour.
- Exercise. Make sure your dog or cat has plenty of room to run around. Take them on walks around the neighborhood, or out to splash in the surf at the beach. If you are concerned about their boundless energy causing damage to your home and aren’t able to take them on many walks, consider a fenced-in yard.
- Create a Safe Space. Many dogs chew or scratch when they are terrified, be it thunder or fireworks or even the vacuum. A safe space they know they can retreat to in the event of scary noises can keep them from freaking out. If your pet is afraid of thunder and lighting, draping their cage in a dark blanket can ease their fear. Also, there are dog compression jackets, which utilize pressure like a big hug to make a dog feel safe.
Choose the best way to keep your pets from scratching up your furniture, and enjoy both the luxury of incredible furniture and the company of your favorite four-legged friend.


Life has come to a screaming stop at our house. On Wednesday I hit our Lab Zeus as I was backing out of the driveway. He has a habit of charging our car when we come home or leave. He got up on his own afterward a bit shaken up but okay. I took him to the vet and had x-rays and blood tests done for internal injuries.
He checked out okay, was thought to be just badly bruised. By Thursday night I knew something was not right. Yesterday he had emergency surgery for a ruptured bladder. All went well and from what I was told he will recover very quickly.
In the mean time he will be in the hospital, yes hospital -not vets office, for another day or two.
The biggest lesson out of this ordeal was love. My total vet bills for July are big. The dogs had skin issues and needed a pile of booster shots and I had to refill the flea and tick medicine supplies for both dogs and two cats. The surgery estimate cost was staggering. My thoughts were, we have to have him put down, the price tag was out of our reach. It's very sad but we can't spend that much money on a dog. Plus there are many other dogs looking for a home....we'll take one in.
When I returned to the vet’s office to settle up the bill and say good bye to Zeus he was standing up, waging his tail and happy to see that I was back to take him home. The next thing I knew I was loading him into my car and with directions clutched in my hand--we were off to the hospital.
The financial cost for my family to keep this big dopey dog is great. ( I had to get it financed) But the hole he would leave is a far greater hardship to endure. He is only one and a half years old. If we didn’t save him that would mean we would miss out on over ten years of being loved, slobber on, our toes stepped on and being knocked out of his way as he hurries by to greet someone.
Both my dogs are from Rainbow Rescue, an animal shelter. Zeus was to be killed at birth. The breeder who owned his mother wasn’t sure who the father was and he didn’t want mixed puppies. So Zeus and his siblings were bottle fed from birth.
I’m not sure about Chow Wow’s history. All I know is that she has a razor sharp mind and is almost militant in her thinking. She would make a great general in the Army. She pretty much thinks she is in charge…and she is. All the neighbor dogs come to our yard to play. She is the smallest but she keeps them in line. Mainly she looks out for the not so smart but very sweet, dopey, loving Zeus. She is missing him right now.

15 Dog Friendly Human Foods – Don’t Miss This
“The way to your dog’s heart is through her stomach.”
When it comes to dog food, most of us take for granted that our furry friends can eat just about anything we put in their bowls. But for some pet owners, this isn’t always the case.
There are many dog food / dog-friendly human foods out there, but which ones are best for your furry friend?
Check out 15 of the best Dog Foods you can enjoy with your dog!


Thanksgiving, 2023, is officially in the books.
We spent it at the movies (“Napoleon”) but before I write that review for the film that opened wide on November 22nd, a little levity looking forward to the most commercial holiday of the season might be appropriate. And these dogs might be your choice for a forever friend. (Or not).
In scanning the November 21st issue of the “Austin American Statesman” for potential topics, I was first attracted to this headline: “Husband Asks Spouse to Annoy His Parents to Motivate Them to Leave.”
That sounded promising, but, in my usual manner, I continued scanning the various articles and read this one, which had a much-less-amusing title: “Shelter Places Dogs Cut From TSA Training.”
It sounded like an informative straight-ahead news story, and I like dogs as well as the next man—err, woman—so I read on.
Apparently, there is a special animal shelter at Joint Base San Antonio-Lackland that is used to house dogs rejected for government service, like the canines used to sniff out drugs by the TSA.
The purpose of the article seemed to be to find “forever homes” for these furry rejects for government service. The article even contained an e-mail address that applicants could use: [email protected]. The article went on to say that multiple visits to San Antonio might be required to meet the animal and make sure the prospective new owners would be a good fit for the animal(s). It was further advised that the prospective owners should arrive at the training center on adoption day with a leash, a collar, and appropriately-sized shipping crate. (Nothing like being prepared and explicit, I always say.)
So, what sorts of animals might we be competing to own?
Let’s just run through a few of the rejected animals awaiting our applications in San Antonio.
First, there is Toby. Toby is a 10-year-old Labrador Retriever (the very dog I owned as a child). Toby was rejected for service because of situational anxiety causing him to suck in more air than necessary which made him become bloated. Like all the other animals on the list, Toby was described as highly active, untrained, and not housebroken, but, (said the article) “with proper training and care they can be a great addition to families.”
Second on the list was Lydka, a 3-year-old German Shepherd who actually made it into service as a bomb-sniffing dog. Unfortunately, Lydka was easily distracted by noise and people and didn’t do well under pressure. She was fired for her performance on the job and requires a more stress-free environment.
Third on the list was Tommy, a 3-year-old English Springer Spaniel, who was dismissed because he developed an upper airway obstruction.
Jack, a 2-year-old German Shepherd, never even made it into training because of suspected kidney disease.
Most of the dogs have not been exposed to any animals other than other dogs and are not comfortable around small children. To be considered for selection as the adoptive owner, the prospective owner must have a fenced-in yard and no plans to move within 6 months of the adoption. Any other pets already in the home must be up to date on vaccination and preventative care. Of course, the prospective owner must also promise to provide appropriate medical care, exercise, training and companionship.
So, if you are available to adopt a non-housebroken, highly active, possibly sick canine that flunked out of TSA (or other) school, feel free to contact the San Antonio-Lackland Joint Base. Sounds like the perfect Christmas pet, doesn’t it?


So having owned these little fuzzes pretty much all my life (save for a few rabbits in between!) this might be a pretty biased post – but seeing as anyone who follows me on Instagram knows I’m a Crazy Guinea Pig Lady and my two piggies, sisters Sunbeam and Luna tend to feature more than myself, I thought it would be fun to share 5 reasons why I love these little creatures so much!
1. Just look at them!
Donut lips. Squishey noses. Chubby little bellies. Cute BOOTAY. Again I may be biased, but I think they’re totally adorable to look at. YES I am guilty of wanting to hold the piggies at every farm I’ve been to, and have often been seen pushing innocent children out of the way in the petting area to get some cuddles in…
2. They’re highly sociable and gentle creatures
Having owned guineas all my life, I can genuinely say the ONLY time I have been nipped by one is when I aimlessly fed my old piggie Jasmine a carrot and was too busy staring in the opposite direction to realise the carrot was long gone and she wanted to see what my finger tasted like instead lol! Guinea pigs are prey animals, so they will take some time getting used to you, but will very very rarely bite or ‘attack’ you. Plus, they’re much less skittish than hamsters and gerbils, making them a perfect pet for young children too. It’s definitely worth cuddling your pigs daily if you can, or at least a few times a week to get them used to your scent. Mine are now very tame and will happily sit on my lap and enjoy cuddles – they even ‘purr’ too!
3. A relatively low maintenance pet
Guinea pigs are generally pretty low maintenance – they don’t need hour long walks each day and they don’t tend to clock up expensive vet bills. Just fresh food (good mix of dried food, grass and fresh vegetables) and water daily, a clean out of the hutch once a week and they’ll be fine and dandy. A little caveat here; these gals are my first pair of long haired piggies, and they are definitely more high maintenance than the short haired breeds. They need regular grooming and trimming, as their coats can easily become matted which can lead to infections. If it’s your first time owning guinea pigs, I’d recommend a short haired breed to start off with.
Guinea pigs do have a life span of 5-7 years (although some of ours have lived until 9!) so while they’re not as long term commitment as say a dog or cat, buying any pet still requires a lot of responsibility, care and time.
4. Popcorning is just the cutest thing EVAH
Relating back to the cuteness element here, but popcorning is just about the cutest thing a pig can do! When they’re very happy, they will do a sort of skip jump up into the air (reminiscent of popcorn ‘popping’ in the microwave!). It’s so sweet to see them jumping around each other…Sunbeam loves to popcorn when I’ve just put some fresh veggies in the hutch for them. A-dorbs!
5. They will ‘wheek’ to greet you!
Finally, the iconic noise that can only be attributed to gorgeous guineas! It’s an excited shriek they make whenever you rustle their food, come to say hello or just in general if they’re really happy. It is super cute. Guinea pigs will also make a similar noise to wheeking if they’re scared too – but when you’re laying in some fresh green veggies in the hutch and this wheeking is accompanied by some serious popcorning, you can be assured you’ve got some pretty happy piggies!
If you’re thinking of buying a guinea pig, NEVER buy a single pig (unless you have other guinea pigs at home it can join). Always get two or three, as they are very sociable little creatures and can become very depressed on their own without other piggie interaction!
If you’re looking for more piggie related content – check out my post in collaboration with HayPigs! or give me a follow on Instagram – you can find a guinea pig highlights section with plenty of Sunbeam and Luna content!


We are excited to announce that our shelter facility although small, is up and running as of Feb 1, 2013! Hours are by appointment only. The shelter facility holds our adoptable dogs, and we also have adoptable dogs in foster home settings
WV Pet, Inc. wants to help reduce the number of animals being euthanized by helping shelters, other rescues and pet owners. We want to help find forever homes for homeless animals help re-home pets before they end up at shelters, provide educational information to pet owners and promote the importance of spay and neuter. WV Pet, Inc. pulls pets that are scheduled to be put to sleep, place them in foster homes or our shelter until foster homes become available and re-home them in their forever homes. We only have enough foster homes at this time for the pets pulled from shelters but will do what we can to help anyone that needs help with their pet. Just email firstname.lastname@example.org with detailed information on the pet and include pictures and we will post them on our courtesy page.
Our adoption fee is $200.00 which helps with the cost of the care of the pet and also to have them wormed, vaccinated and spay/neutered before adoption we do not adopt out any of our pets that have not been altered. Are you the family they are waiting for????

Researchers at Linköping University have investigated whether the stress levels of puppies are suffering from the humans they live with. strain stages for the beyond several months may be decided in both dogs and people by means of measuring the levels of strain hormone stored in hairs as they develop.
The researchers have gathered hair from both dogs and owners and measured stages of cortisol, the maximum important pressure hormone, in them. They were interested in whether or not there are variations between unique canine breeds. Breeding has led to the genetic selection of various breeds for exclusive obligations. They have a look at blanketed 18 puppies from breeds that have been bred for unbiased searching, which include the Swedish elkhound, the Norwegian elkhound, and the dachshund. A second group blanketed puppies from ancient breeds which can be genetically extra closely related to the wolf than other breeds. This organization comprised 24 dogs from breeds consisting of the shiba inu, the basenji, and the Siberian husky. All proprietors finished questionnaires approximately their very own character and that of their canine. they also replied questions about their courting with their dog, together with such matters as how the proprietor experienced the interaction with the dog, diploma of emotional attachment to the canine, and the volume to which proudly owning a dog gave rise to issues.
“The results confirmed that the owner’s persona affected the pressure stage in looking dogs, however curiously enough no longer within the historic puppies. in addition, the connection among the canine and the owner affected the pressure level of the dogs. This become the case for each sorts, but the result turned into much less marked for the historic puppies,” says Lina Roth, senior lecturer inside the department of Physics, Chemistry and Biology at linköping college.
In a previous examine, the identical researchers had seen that dogs from herding breeds, which have been genetically decided on for his or her capacity to collaborate with human beings, mirror the lengthy-time period pressure stage of their owner. while the researchers now brought data about the relationship of the herding dogs to their proprietor, it have become clear that the connection turned into big for the long-time period stress degrees also in those puppies.
The researchers conclude that lengthy-term strain is motivated least strongly by way of the proprietor and their relationship to the canine for ancient breeds. The searching dogs display clean hyperlinks between each the character of the proprietor and their courting to the dog, however it is most effective herding puppies that show the precise synchronization with the lengthy-time period pressure inside the owner.
“We agree with that the synchronization of strain is a effect of breeding the herding puppies for collaboration with people, while the relationship to the owner and the owner’s persona are essential parameters that influence the synchronization of stress ranges,” says Lina Roth.


After planning carefully for all of 5 minutes yesterday night, I got up early today.
At first, the thought was "Fuck it, I'm going back to sleep".
Then my dog started to wail.
That's how my day started: taking the dog out for the morning potty break.
By the time I entered my house, I was fresh.
Cooked and ate a healthy breakfast, washed clothes, cleaned kitchen, even wrote quite a few pages.
Reached office before my usual time, too.
One small act of insignificance has snowballed into a good day.
Hope my dog wails again tomorrow morning too.


Malon and Faron have been loving their new home! There is a lot more space for them to run around, and less carpet for them to tear up! Both kitties had vet appointments recently. Faron is still getting all her kitten shots and Malon had her yearly checkup and is in perfect health!
They are getting along better each day. They have never really fought, but they seem to love each other more and more each day. It makes me happy that both kitties like each other. I would have hated if they didn't get along!
Snuggling up and spooning on top of their tower the first night in the new apartment. I think they were exhausted that day. While we were moving, they were in the old apartment which was completely empty with only their litter box and some food and water. They had nowhere to hide so when we went back to get them they were both on top of the kitchen cabinets. They were the last thing we brought to the new apartment. Poor kitties, they had a stressful day but had lots of exploring to do!
She loves her Uncle John already! John just has a way with animals.
Faron at the vet! Into everything of course. When is she not? She weighs over 5 pounds now!
And Malon of course, scared to death and hiding under the chair. She's not too fond of going to the vet. She's been pampered since she was 2 months old. By me.. hehe. Little Faron was fending for herself in the great outdoors before we took her in when she was almost 6 months old. She doesn't have a care in the world!
They think they're towels! Malon has always loved towels for some reason. At the old apartment, she loved burying herself in the basket of rolled up towels. Now she likes to hide in the shelf with them at the new place. Faron, I guess, wanted to be included so she just made room for herself under the shelf!
Such a Daddy's girl.
Both kitties hanging out with me after a long day at work! Trapped by cats.
Shout out to my sister Amanda for a lot of these pictures!
More kitty posts to come!

Most dogs with an antibiotic-resistant bacterial infection will make a full recovery. Once a dog has had one drug-resistant infection, however, the likelihood of a repeat infection is higher. Keeping your dog on a healthy diet helps to support the immune system and can reduce the chances that the bacteria will proliferate.

Only your veterinarian will be able to identify the specific cause of the infection and determine which treatment to use. Can Dogs Get Allergic Reactions to Antibiotics?

She loved to snuggle on a quilt and read.
Kipling would often put her in her place. She was the sort of cat that needed some whoop ass from time to time.
And this cracked me up. It’s as if she’s saying “Whew, last night the partying was outrageous!”
And here she’s just the queen.
Kricket was a cool little cat. She could break into anything and she did. I had to cat-proof all sorts of areas. She opened cabinets and doors. Oh man. She was a handful. Then of course she and Kanga didn’t get along. That was difficult at times but I sure loved her. She was extremely smart, totally hilarious and had me wrapped around her finger. I mean to the point where I would carry her around with me from room to room. She loved that and I did, too. Heck, it was an opportunity to embrace my inner crazy cat lady.
Then Friday morning she was significantly weak, couldn’t lift herself into the litter box or jump up on anything but showed no signs of pain or injury. So off to the Vet we went and came home with an initial diagnosis of a blood disorder. The weekend was a sad slog with details to skip over here but by Monday she was much worse. We returned to the Vet and nothing good came of it. I had to let her go. I brought her home and she’s buried in the back yard right outside the kitchen window.

Walked In or....dumped?
A week or so ago I had the back door open to the porch, I heard a noise and looked down. My goodness there was a cat. I thought where did he (she) come from? We don't know if someone dumped it or it wandered in.It looked to be in good health but when it meowed it was like the cat had laryngitis or something. It hung around the porch trying to meow. So my hubby finally took it out to the barn to see if we had any cat food left over from when we fed the coons last year, they were eating all the cubes we give to the cows and that was the only way to catch the coons. Anyway, there was some cat food left so he fed the cat and gave it some water and left it in the barn. The cat now resides in the barn, sleeping on top of the hay bales and meows to greet you when you walk in the barn, happy as can be.


CPR for Cats & Dogs

Open animals mouth and make sure the air passage is clear. If not remove the object obstructing the air passage.
2. Extend the head and give several artificial respirations:
B. For small dogs and cats you may be able to cover the nose and mouth with your mouth as you breathe. The animal''''s chest should rise. Give 2 breaths.
3. Next perform chest compression
B. For small dogs and cats as well as large dogs with funnel chests, you may need to lie the animal on its side and compress the side of the rib cage. Alternatively you can position the animal on its back and press on both sides of the rib cage.

As animal lovers, we understand that a trip would be incomplete without the family’s four-legged member! Vacations are meant to be a time for family bonding, relaxation, and stress relief. Finding pet friendly rentals or lodging may make or break your trip with your dog or a cat. Some pet-friendly lodgings are better than others. What if I told you that a wide range of lodgings provide the same facilities for dogs as they do for people? Hotels know how much we love our dogs and cats and how much they mean to us. It means that different pet services and facilities are being provided to help the furry ones feel perfectly at home no matter where they travel. Since an increasing number of pet owners refuse to travel without their dogs, hotels and other lodgings should start catering to the whole family.
Invent Your Pet Amenities and Show Off Your Creativity
It’s common knowledge among outstanding hotels that encouraging repeat business takes more than simply the bare necessities. In vacation and everyday life, pet owners nowadays are ready to pay a premium for their companionship. As hotels become pet-friendly, they have the potential to differentiate themselves from the competition by offering guests an unforgettable experience.
If you have to choose between pet-friendly hotels and Airbnb, think about what makes your place different from the others. Give your visitors a memorable stay by providing first-rate human and animal amenities.
There’s no better method to cultivate customer loyalty and encourage return visits.
Scheduling Events Outside of the High-Traffic Season
Having pet-friendly facilities is an excellent method for hotels to fill empty rooms during the off-season. As a result, you’re more open to winter reservations since you’re now open to various forms of travel. Even if the majority is for business, pet-friendly incentives may make a difference in reservations.
Join the Pet-Friendly Travel Movement!
Four-legged hotel visitors will always pose specific hazards, no matter how careful you are. With the correct measures to build realistic and strategic pet policies, hotels can account for these risks while opening up new and exciting customer opportunities.
If you want your guests talking (and barking), you should have Instagram-worthy canine facilities. If you want to stand out from the crowd, you should have top-notch human hotel service.
Things to Keep When Going to a Pet-Friendly Rental
Pay for the chaos by charging pet owners:
Many pet friendly rentals will have to deal with several difficulties, such as hair, odour, and other pet-related disasters. Hotels may address this by allowing pets and enforcing pet fees and restrictions customised to each location. Most hotels charge extra for cleaning and other expenses associated with accommodating four-legged visitors.
Non-refundable Fees Associated With Owning a Pet:
Hotel pet policies might include a regular, non-refundable cost to cover messes caused byuests with furry companions.
Deposits for pets and cleaning fees that are refundable
The ideal option for certain hotels may be a deposit in addition to a one-time cleaning cost.
Hotel pet rules and fees provide guests with more options when reserving accommodations for themselves and their animals. While doing so, they provide frequent tourists and hotel personnel reassurance that rooms would be adequately cared for and cleaned after a visit from a dog or cat.
When reserving pet friendly rentals, most tourists are restricted to staying at certain hotel brands or using alternative services like Airbnb. Allowing guests to bring their pets to stay with them may help motels differentiate themselves from the competition by providing a highly sought-after feature. Integrating pet-friendly measures to guarantee hygiene may assist in preventing conventional passengers from being isolated in the interim.
