Recent Pet News, Tips & Info...Choose the Airedale Terrier as a Pet and Say Good-Bye to Boredom“The King of the Terriers”, the Airedale terrier comes from Airedale, Yorkshire, England, and it is the largest of the terrier breeds. It comes from crossing the old and vanished breeds of the Black-and-Tan terrier with the Otterhound. It is also said that they have the Manchester terrier in their blood. They were initially bred to hunt otters (reason for which they are also called the Waterside Terrier) and hares in the valley of the Aire river - that also gave its name to the breed - and to herd sheep, being both shepherd and hunting dogs. The Africanis Dog From the South African Plains to Your Home Dog breeders do not officially recognize Africanis as a breed. Also known as the Bantu Dog or the Zulu Dog, the breed developed in South Africa and it is basically comprised of similar breeds that are originally from the area. However, dog historians have acquired enough evidence to conclude that, originally, the breed lived in the East and Middle East and migrated to Africa in ancient times. The Zulu Dog is a perfect companion for people, whether we are talking about more traditional activities like hunting or herding, or simply about the pleasure of having a dog companion. The Afghan Hound Elegance and Distinction If the old saying that claims that dogs and masters resemble each other is true, then the Afghan hound is surely the dog most likely to be seen in the presence of an aristocrat. Its silky, thick coat will match any of its masters' designer dresses or elegant suits. Distinguished in looks and personality, this is one of the breeds that you can't stop looking at when seeing on the street and that you are very likely to see at a dog show. The Aidi Dog A Perfect Watchdog Of Moroccan origin, the Aidi dog evolved as a watchdog for herds of goats and sheep. For this reason, it has heightened senses that are very good at detecting threats and its instincts are perfectly in tune, resulting in a speedy and efficient reaction. These characteristics are also perfect for a hunting dog - so it is also very good at filling that role. Very courageous, this breed has evolved in the Morrocan mountains, protecting itself and its owners from many vicious predators like wildcats, but also from strangers. Also called the Berber (it was commonly used by Berber tribes), this breed is very similar to Pariah dogs - to which it is believed to be related. |

Dog BoardingDog Daycare and boarding benefits both the dog and you the owner, the benefit for the owner is that while your doing human stuff your furry child is having a great time doing dog stuff. No more guilt when you pick up your keys and have to watch their excitement turn to disappointment as you walk out the door and go to work. It benefits the dog in that instead of sitting at home alone waiting for you, they are playing, being socialized, and having a great time. After a fun day of playing you pick up a calm and relaxed pet. Dogs get to enjoy a safe, healthy and fun atmosphere with lots of interaction, both with other dogs and with people. Dogs can participate in play groups, gnaw on a favorite toy, play ball, hang out with humans, or just lounge on a couch. We plan each day to insure that we deliver the utmost in group socialization, fun and provide the greatest benefit to each dog in our care. The point is that they’re not at home by themselves. Social skills will increase Dogs will learn how to play and interact with other dogs in a safe, fun, and meaningful way. Boredom behaviors caused by lack of activity, and inadequate mental and physical stimulation are virtually eliminated At the end of the day you will have a pup that is happy, relaxed and tired from playing all day. By attending we are able to reinforce good manners. Dogs are social animals and need interaction with other dogs and people on a regular basis to remain happy and healthy. No matter how many hugs and kisses you give them, you can't escape their sadness when you leave. Dogs don't understand our human way of life and the many things that get in the way of spending the day with each other. Those that are left to stay at home all day by themselves become bored, frustrated and unhappy. They may exhibit destructive behavior or even suffer from separation anxiety, crying and barking for hours when left alone. They need companionship and exercise for their total well being. At PAWS, dogs will have a chance to wrestle, play ball, play tug-o-war, run around, and catch a snooze on one of our couches, pillows, or laps. Dogs will spend the day being part of a healthy happy dog pack that will gives them a social outlet, so while you spend the day doing human stuff your dog is having a great time doing dog stuff. Our business plans on giving pet owners peace of mind knowing that their pup is getting the exercise and socialization that it needs and desires. After all, a tired dog is a happy dog.
