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.

Troche Homeless Cat Refuge is a privately owned non- profit animal welfare charity, that pays for spay/neuter surgery, vaccinations and disease testing for every pet in its care. We work with a network of foster homes and adoption pet agencies to provide care for homeless cats and kittens, including those homeless, abandoned, stray, feral and abused. We strictly operate by the generous donations and contributions from people in the community that knows what we are all about and have benefit from our program. We purchase items such as collars, leashes, identification tags, litter pans, food dishes, toys, humane cat traps,special diets--whatever is needed to keep the pets comfortable, happy and healthy while they wait for new homes. We have no source of income other than donations, but we are a strictly volunteer organization with no overhead--every penny donated directly benefits the pets. We also have a trap spay/neuter release and re-homing program, that helps prevent the overpopulation of abandoned, stray, feral, abused and homeless cats. Troche Homeless Cat Refuge is currently in need of Cat and Kitten food, cat treats, toys, scraching post, litter, litter trays, food dishes, pet carriers, humane traps, cat bedding,etc. These items will benefit our foster home program as some foster home families cannot afford all the foster home expenses involved with the pets care.
