Should you ever decide that you need a big dog, with an imposing posture, which can look threatening and majestic at the same time, the Aryan Molossus is definitely one breed that you must take into consideration.

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. However, in ancient times, it was used mostly as a guard dog. This breed is originally from Egypt and named after the town of Armant. 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. Before deciding to buy or adopt a dog of this breed, there are some things that you have to take into consideration. Unfortunately, this is quite a rare breed of dogs in our days.

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. However, the name „Petite”, meaning „small”, is not at all referring to the size of the dogs, but to the game they are after. Even if they've been around since the 16th century, today, these dogs are not easy to find. So if you have decided to adopt one, you can be sure that you will have a unique pet.


Pet Tips

Litter box training your cat

Cats are naturally clean animals. Teaching them to use the litter box will help to encourage this behavior. They will continue to use this litter box until it gets dirty. Here are just a few tips to help your cat use the litter box every time.

Go to the store if you have not already and pick out a litter box that would be right for both you and your cat. There are several different types of litter box's, there are big ones and small ones there is also an automatic cleaning box that has a scoop that will rake the dirty litter into a storage bag. Some people even use the disposable litter box's which come with the litter already inside so you don't have to touch anything.

Finding the right cat litter is a fairly straight forward task. There are a lot of different types of cat litter; you can choose between scented litter and non scented litter. There is also litter which will clump up after your cat does his/her deed making it much easier for you to scoop up. You should change your cats litter box at least every other day this will keep your house smelling fresh and clean.

It is not a good idea to place the litter box near your cats food. Cats do not like to eat in the same place or anywhere near where they have urinated. Also never clean the litter box if you are pregnant because it contains toxoplasmosis in the fecal witch has been known to cause harm to your baby. Cats have been known to urinate on clean places such as your couch or carpet when they have a dirty litter box. Ensuring that the litter box is clean is very important in training your cat.

Male cats should ALWAYS be neutered as they like to spray to mark their territory, this also helps with unexpected kittens. A mixture of vinegar and water will help to make the smell go away. You can use half water and half vinegar to clean this up. This will keep your cat from returning to that same spot to use it again.
