. The rescue groups are like the vets there are many great ones(I got my shadow from one ) then there are the few that ruin it for all. In Alberta three groups have been shut down revcently as it turns out they were turning the rescued dogs into bre…

You are so very right. Proper breeding be it cross breeding for healthy animals and better gene pool is one thing puppy mills and all the gee my dog was in heat now what is just sad. There are some vets who will of course help out a responsible pet…

The sad reality is that you have encountered the me first mentality of some groups. There are many vets who will work with a person whether they are a rescue group or just someone taking in a a stray to foster. What frustrates me is that too many pe…

Frustration and then some

So I went to pick up Dozer. And when I got there the dog that was described was no where in sight. Instead there was this Crazed animal muzzled ready to attack anything in site. No problem says I its a stress reaction. I ask If I can take him for a walk and see how he does once calmed down. No the people say take home right now.
Right away alarm bells start to go off. As we are talking the poor dog decides to get out of his area and goes after a cat. not just play but trying o kill it. SO with a… Continue

Demodectic Mange

And then it was like someone knew I wanted to help. I sit here doing research on the care of a dog with that condition. I have been offered the chance to adopt a Staffordshire terrier with this condition. Someone told the group of my want to help and open my home to a dog. The only concern is that one of the treatments seems to be harmful to herding dogs and Bella being a border collie is indeed a herder. She gets lots of practice herding the cats every day until they have had enough.
Anyways if… Continue

Rescue is a national thing I guess

So as I opened up my email after filling out a few more applications for adoption. I was surprised to read the rather nasty letter . The jist of the email was that I was horrible for even applying to adopt from a State . Somehow we Canadians are not good enough to adopt or rescue a dog south of the boarder. It saddens me that so many dogs need homes and in the need to ensure quality the over zealousness may cost a few needlessly. Some groups have volunteers able to do home visits some groups wor… Continue

this and that

So after so time to settle down and deal with the heartbreak of not getting Skyy(Note for future about communication to ensure no mix ups) we have decided to take another tack. The frustration I felt has been echoed by a few people I have talked to.Now before getting upset please understand I support Rescue I have gotten both my dogs that way and have been involved for a long time. The issue seems to be though that some rescue groups have gotten a little overzealous in the background checks.
I u… Continue
