Recent Pet News, Tips & Info...The Aryan MolossusOnce 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. |

Pet Welfare is a 501(c)(3) non-profit, no-kill animal shelter located on Eglin Air Force Base in Northwest Florida . We receive no monetary support from the government, operating solely on donations, grants, adoption fees, fundraisers, and the Combined Federal Campaign. Our purpose is to support the military member and military lifestyle by easing the hardship associated with abandoning or euthanizing a valued family member, the family pet. Permanent Change of Station to certain locations makes it unfeasible or impossible in many cases to continue ownership and care. We also support DoD civilians, retired military members and local civilians as necessary. We provide shelter to many found animals and rescue many from local shelters that would otherwise be euthanized. Pet Welfare was established in 1982 as a no-kill animal shelter to provide a temporary home for cats and dogs until appropriate adoptive homes can be found. Our original facility consisted of only the former military working dog kennel that we inherited when the base built them a new facility. The dog kennel consisted of a roof with open sides that have since been enclosed to provide the dogs shelter from the environment. The attached office was converted into a cat room where most of the animals were required to be in cages. Over the years we purchased two trailer-type buildings, one for use as a laundry and food storage area and the other as an isolation/quarantine area for the cats. Another building of this type was donated to us in 1995 by the 33d Fighter Wing and served as the shelter office. In November 2002, we celebrated the Grand Opening of our new facility. It took 6 years of hard work and fundraising to make our dream a reality. The new permanent structure consists of a more functional office area, a large “free-roaming” cat room, a laundry and storage area and three dog isolation kennels with outdoor runs. It also contains an indoor bathing area for the animals and a permanent bathroom for the humans (we previously had to use an outdoor port-o-potty). We operate with a part-time kennel manager and an all-volunteer staff. We place approximately 400 animals a year in caring homes and shelter numerous strays until their owners can claim them. All animals are spayed or neutered, vaccinated, and provided with any necessary medical care prior to leaving the shelter.
