The Aryan Molossus
Once a Warrior, Today a Loyal Companion and a Family-Protector
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.

While the voucher program was successful, it could not generate enough volume to make a significant impact on the thousands of animals euthanized each year in the county. In 2001, after two years of planning, the Humane Society followed the lead of other organizations across the United States that had successfully reduced or eliminated their communities' pet overpopulation problems. The group bought a mobile veterinary van and contracted for veterinary services with the Piedmont Communities Spay Neuter and Wellness Clinic to deliver high-volume, reduced-cost spay / neuter operations. The Humane Society's strategy is to attack the pet overpopulation problem on a regional basis working with animal shelters, rescue groups and county agencies in Guilford County and across the Piedmont.
Once the low-cost spay/neuter program was under way, it quickly became clear that a large number of cats and dogs were not receiving basic veterinary care. More than 85 percent of the animals seen through the program lacked rabies and/or distemper vaccinations.
In November 2001 the Humane Society contracted for expanded services from the clinic, including low-cost vaccinations, testing, microchipping and other services for healthy animals. The wellness program serves fixed and low-income pet owners.
In 2003, the group changed its name to Humane Society of the Piedmont to reflect the regional scope of its major endeavor, the reduced spay/neuter and wellness programs.
In the future, the Humane Society will continue to expand the spay/neuter program, ultimately to reach 10,000 animals a year. It is in the process of expanding its humane education program and other efforts to prevent cruelty and provide better lives for the Piedmont's cats and dogs and their owners.
