The Armant The Egyptian Dog with a Lot of Love to Give To some of you, the Armant is better known as the “Egyptian Sheepdog” and, just as the name suggests it, it was bred to be a herding dog.

Its loyalty and agility are the two main characteristics which make this dog special. The Atlas Terrier The Small Dog With a Massive Dose of Energy At a glimpse, the Atlas Terrier can be easily mistaken with the Jack Russell Terrier. However, there are some differences that may help you tell these two cousins apart.

Anglos-Francaises de Petite Venerie It Is Impossible Not to Love Them Anglos-Francaises de Petite Venerie are the smallest dogs in the Anglos-Francais category.

Pet Tips
Lost DogsWhat do you do when your dog is lost? Most dog owners find themselves in this scenario at one point or another. There is nothing like the sense of panic and hopelessness that accompanies the discovery of a lost or runaway dog-but there is plenty you can do. There are steps you can take to prevent your dog from running away, but you should also prepare for the worst. If the worst does happen and your dog is missing, quick, decisive action is crucial: your best chances for bringing him home come in the hours immediately following his disappearance. Be thorough and don’t give up. Don’t skip searching a neighborhood because you think your dog wouldn’t dog there-animals surprise us all the time. Don’t stop looking for your dog just because your dog has been gone for several days or weeks; there is still a chance of bringing him home. To prevent a tragedy make sure your dog is well secured at all times. Even the best trained dogs will make a break for it under the right circumstances such as a cat running by, being disoriented due to age or illness, or being left in an unfamiliar place. You should also make sure that your dog has proper identification. There are three main forms of identification: tags, tattoos and microchips. Because tags can be removed or lost, dogs should have at least one other for of identification, either a tattoo or microchip.Share this article on Lost Dogs with friends.
