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. |

Please visit RESCUE Siamese and adopt a homeless pet You have reached the shelter page for RESCUE Siamese. RESCUE Siamese is located in WINNIPEG, Manitoba. If you have information to add or update for RESCUE Siamese, please click here and let us know.
RESCUE is a no kill facility of which 95% of all cats taken in are relinquished to our care from the Winnipeg Humane Society. The organization was set up to give preference to the Siamese and Oriental breeds, but will also take in the domestic partners of these breeds. Being of a recognizable breed does not safeguard Siamese cats from physical handicaps, emotional problems, becoming feral or growing into a neglected Tom - all are welcome at our door! Upon entering our program, each cat is health checked, vaccinated, dewormed and then placed in one of our loving foster homes to monitor for a two-week quarantine period. "Suspect" strays (cats that have been "living on the streets" and may have come into contact with FeLV) are tested for Feline Leukemia or FIV. If any health problems arise during this period the animals are promptly treated. Upon completing this quarantine period the cat will be transferred to our main viewing area for adoption. All adult cats (over 6 months of age) are sterilized as soon as possible. In addition to the sterilization, vaccination, deworming, and testing, our adoption packages also includes a microchip ID or tattoo to ensure lost pets find their way home. Once the quarantine period has been completed and the above treatments have been completed, the cats are made available for adoption. The adoption fees for cats are used to offset the costs of spaying or neutering as well as paying vet bills, the cost of medications and other costs relates to running RESCUE. The shelter also receives private donations and holds fund-raising events. However, much of the money comes from the volunteers themselves.
