Recent Pet News, Tips & Info...Ainu The Perfect Guardian dogThe Ainu dog, also called Hokkaido dog, is named after the Japanese prefecture where it arrived 3000 years ago, when the Ainu tribe from the Tohoken region brought it along. With its straight forelegs, powerful neck, prominent chest and solid back, the dog is thin, muscular and fast - an important feature for those who would like to adopt such a breed. Due to its outdoorsy and inquisitive nature, it needs long daily walks and regular exercise to stay in shape. That is why this breed is unsuitable for living inside an apartment. Intelligent, watchful, eager to learn and very easy to train, the breed is suitable for hunting, but it also 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. |

Animal Shelter details for Oahu SPCA
Please visit Oahu SPCA and adopt a homeless pet You have reached the shelter page for Oahu SPCA. Oahu SPCA is located in Kapolei, Hawaii. If you have information to add or update for Oahu SPCA, please click here and let us know.
Our mission is to end the unnecessary euthanasia of adoptable animals and improve the quality of life for all animals. In 2009, we were involved in the largest animal rescue in the history of Hawaii. More than 200 birds, 135 dogs, and 100 cats were abandoned when the owner of a no-kill shelter in Waianae died. Her spouse surrendered the animals to us because of our no-kill philosophy and commitment to the appropriate use of euthanasia - when an animal is in pain, suffering, or is a safety risk to the public. Today we feed and care for nearly 150 animals relying primarily on individual donations and the kind hearts of our volunteers. We receive calls daily requesting our assistance to rescue animals, and we provide regular high volume spayneuter clinics to help our low income and feral cats. Each of our animals gets one on one attention, doctor visits and love until they are rehabilitated not only in health but in spirit and ready to find a loving home. We are always in need of Volunteers, Donations, Foster Homes and Forever Homes for our Pets! We appreciate any help you can give us! THANKS!
