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. |

History of 21st Century C.A.R.E.S. Randy Warner first began rescuing Dalmatians in the 1980’s and discovered it was his calling in life. He also discovered the overwhelming need for such a service, because so many people adopt animals without giving much thought to what is involved. Once they realize the tremendous responsibility they have unwittingly taken on, many reject it and either give the pet to the pound, where it is usually destroyed, or fail to provide adequate care and attention, and itsuffers. Randy’s first response to this every day tragedy was to establish his own rescue and shelter. He quickly reached the conclusion, however, that this no shelter could ever resolve the problem. Instead, they actually increase the problem by hiding it view and enabling people to assuage their guilt with their wallets without addressing the underlying causes. Millions of dollars are contributed each year to organizations that try to manage the abuse, neglect and over-population of companion animals. But very little attention is paid to why this terrible situation exists, and much less money is put toward trying to change the human behavior that creates it. Randy decided to attack the disease instead of its symptoms. He began delivering humane education programs to schoolchildren in the Los Angeles area. He was shocked at how little the participants knew, but encouraged by their positive response to him, the dogs he took with him and his message. This inspired him to think bigger. In 1998 he launched 21st Century C.A.R.E.S., the United States’ first organization dedicated to teaching people how to treat pets properly. He began to plan a nationwide tour, the costs of which would be covered by marketing campaigns. The goals of the tour would be to speak with one million youth, and to replicate the program in other areas. 21st Century C.A.R.E.S. was built on the principle that people who understand what is involved in caring for a pet will either accept responsibility for treating the animals they live with properly, or they will not acquire animals to begin with. A corollary to this principle is that people who have been taught how to treat animals properly will be less tolerant of those who don’t.
