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. |

Mission. The Center for Animal Rescue and Adoption works to save more animals through innovative solutions that use the techniques of creative problem-solving, capacity-building and collaboration. Vision. We believe it is possible to create communities in which all dogs and cats are considered companions and members of the family; in which companion animals will not suffer from cruelty, abuse or neglect; and in which homeless companion animals will not die - either on the street from starvation, disease or injury or by being killed in shelters. Goals. To make this possible, we must reduce the sheer numbers of dogs and cats that are being born, increase the number of available adoptive homes for companion animals, raise the visibility of adoption as a viable option, support people in being responsible companion animal guardians, and rescue animals from situations of abuse, cruelty and neglect. We must work to achieve a society in which there is a stable, caring "forever" home for every companion animal. Toward this end, The Center for Animal Rescue and Adoption is committed to: * Providing grassroots animal rescue and adoption services * Building the capacity of community-based animal rescue groups to be more effective in the development and management of their organizations, their programs and their resources * Researching and developing pilot projects that can be used as models for communities interested in innovative animal rescue and adoption operations * Facilitating cooperation and collaboration among organizations working toward the common goal of saving more animals Legal Status.
