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. |

Hi! I am Connie Tedford! I am the President and FOUNDER of GREATER SOUTHWEST SAINT BERNARD RESCUE. This originally was created to keep so many WONDERFUL Saint Bernards from being euthanized for all of the wrong reasons. Due to my love for the breed, I could NOT sit back, and DO NOTHING! I've been a Stockbroker for almost 25 years, and always been a dog lover, but until I was blessed with OWNING my first two Show Saint Bernards, Edison I and Edison II, I would have never found the inspiration!!!! The inspiration to want to SAVE these babies, that are so discriminated against because they're BIG, SLOBBER and SHED, I really had no clue about rescue. But, Rescue is a wonderful way to get to know and understand a BREED, and quickly! I've had over 600 Saint Bernards, and a few dozen Saint WANNA BE'S, come through my front door over the past 8 years. Thank goodness my own dogs, Edison, Lexus and Eliza are very supportive of my efforts and of sharing me with all of their waywards cousins, or this success would have never been possible!!! We do alot of Public Relation events to show the true Saint Bernard breed, and try and break down all of the social stigma's that exist out there! . In addition, my dogs were all therapy dogs. GOD REST THEIR SOULS..................We'd go into the Nursing homes to visit people who've had to give up their own dogs and have NO VISITORS OF THEIR OWN! Everyone needs a BIG, FURRY, TEDDY BEAR to give them a hug, and well, frankly, SAINTS DO THAT QUITE WELL!!!!
