A Dying Woman’s Only Wish Is To Find Her Missing Dog


The love of one’s dog goes well beyond anything one can explain, especially for a woman named Jenise Duff who now lives in Montana and is dying from lung disease with less than a year to live who only wants her missing pinscher back.

As Jenise was moving from Colorado she was in an accident in Cascade, Colorado and that’s when her dog Sammie got loose and ran away. So now the dog is still missing somewhere along Hwy 24 and has not been seen for the last three weeks.

This is so sad to read about the journey that Jenise Duff and her dog Sammie have gone through to only loose each other during these last few months that she has left. Hopefully someone in Colorado will find her dog and allow her wish to come true.

Jenise Duff has posted her phone number if anyone finds her missing dog @ 970-388-2167

Thankfully for a women named Lisa Winters who able to talk a dog breeder in La Grande to give up their dogs after seeing how bad it got for the breeder. So the Idaho Humane Society stepped in and removed the dogs from the breeder which were undernourished and unassertive.

Luckily this women happened to go to the breeder or these dogs could have been another story of neglect with an even worst outcome. Hopefully they will get some good help and be back on their feet again with the help of the vet and staff.

My Pit-Bulls Aren’t For Fighting


 

That was the words from Demetri Franklin from S. St. Louis who had his five pit-bulls taken from him when the police raided his house.

So after watching the video you really have to wonder and when you look into the dogs eyes you can see the sadness in these dogs. So why would all that dog fighting stuff be laying around in that garage.

So are the authorities going to charge Demetri or not is the question. Hopefully the vets will be looking over the five dogs to see how healthy they are.

What Happens When You Have 23 Dogs Living Across The Street From A School

Well the El Paso police and the local Animal Services thought that it would be safer to take the twenty three dogs away from Armando Lopez.

The police first arrived at Armando Lopez home as a report came in that two pit-bulls were fighting and when they arrived at the home they found that the dogs had no water and they were in an unsecure area that could possible cause a concern with the school being across the street.

Armando Lopez was also charged with twenty three violations for various city ordinances.

Some People Just Don’t Belong Owning A Dog



A poor Labrador sure didn’t deserve to be kick and stepped on by his so called owner because he went on the floor. First off if this animal abuser named Anthony Jones from Chicago wasn’t out getting drunk he would have been home to tend to his dog, but no you come home drunk and see the mess the dog did and you start kicking the dog and then try and step on his head.

Well one good thing came out of this when the dog bit Anthony’s hand, I only wish the dog did more for what he did to her. The police charged this dog abuser with cruelty to animals for the crime he did to this poor dog. Hopefully the judge is an animal lover when he goes to trial.

Was She Really Trying To Save The 100 So Called Rescued Dogs In Her Home




You have to wonder were the dogs really being rescued or was this so called rescue out of hand for this home owner.

The home owner named Mary Stickney was running what was called Stickney's Toy Breed and Retirement out of her home in Gage County in Nebraska that was raided by the police and the local dog rescue shelter when they found around one hundred dogs inside her home.

I would like to know home you put one hundred dogs in a home and call it a safe place for the dogs.

The Gage County Chief Deputy Attorney Rick Schreiner said: The ammonia levels were high so you could hardly breath, there was fecal matter on the floor. You had 100 dogs in one home. It doesn't look like a situation where they are out to harm anything, it's difficult for her, she thought she was doing the best, but she was obviously wrong.

You really have to wonder the actions of Mary Stickney who seem to take on too many dogs that questioned the health of these dogs. After reading some of the comments there are a lot of upset people out there and I have to agree with them.

Again it all goes back to the puppy mills and those who but a pet dog and then dump them off when it becomes inconvenient to them to have their dog. It just so sad that we read all the time about the abuse these dogs go though when it all started out with the love for their dog. Am I missing something here or have the owners that abandon their pets become heartless?

How Do You Leave 52 Animals And Just Pack Up And Go


How could anyone do this to the poor animals they were just left with no food or water? Luckily a realtor happened to go to a foreclosed house in Odessa, Kansas and found the poor animals.

The Friends of the Friendless Animal Rescue had rescued nine dogs, forty one cats along with two horses. Why would you do this when there is so much help out there?

The president of Friends of the Friendless Animal Rescue Gina Duggan said: They just packed up and left, abandoned the property and left the animals. I'm real frustrated. It's easy to get frustrated in this business.

I don’t blame Gina for being frustrated by whoever did this cruel act to these animals. I only hope that they find the lowlifes and put them in jail for their actions.

New Pet Food Line Made Of Organic Grass Fed Beef


First-Ever Pet Food Line Made From Organic, Grass-Fed Beef Provides a Host of Pet Health and Environmental Benefits


Original Pet Food Company Replaces Gravity As The Best Way For Dogs and Cats to Enjoy People-Quality Food

After decades of sitting, begging and playing dead; extensive lobbying efforts within the canine community have finally been rewarded – the quality meat people eat is finally available in a pet food. With the introduction of the Original Pet Food Company's complete line of dog and cat meals made from organic, grass-fed beef, the days of pets relying upon table scraps is over.

"With the sustainable, organic, grass-fed beef revolution well underway, we believe it's high time for the same quality meats to make their way from the dinner plate to the pet bowl," said Melissa McGinnis, the host of hit web series Greenopolis TV and founder of Original Pet Food Company. Melissa is on a mission to bring humane and sustainable agriculture practices to the $47 billion pet food industry(1). Pet food made from organic, grass-fed beef promotes better pet health, environmental responsibility and economic vitality.

Dogs and cats are no different from humans in the fact that their bodies were not designed to process all of the artificial hormones, preservatives and additives that entered the food supply in the past century. Organic, grass-fed beef is high in beneficial Omega-3 fatty acids and conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), shown to reduce cardiovascular disease and the growth of cancerous tumors. By eating a diet low in saturated fat and free of additives, preservatives and fillers, pets will enjoy shinier coats, healthier skin and improved digestion.

Original Pet Food Company uses only the highest quality grass-fed beef from Uruguay. Their cattle graze on the Pampas, the fertile grasslands of Uruguay and are never confined to feedlots or factory farms. The cows are never given antibiotics or growth hormones. Slaughter is done with the highest humane standards. The meat is processed quickly and cooked only once for optimum flavor and nutrition. Synthetic colors or flavors are never added.

In addition to the numerous health benefits of grass-fed beef, there is also a positive environmental impact. More than 50% of all grain and corn grown in the U.S. is fed to livestock, adding to the buildup of pesticides and chemical fertilizers in the soil and water. This diet is harmful to the health of cows, whose stomachs are specially designed to break down the cellulose in grass, leading to disease and an epidemic of antibiotic use. Grazing cattle on Pampas grasses, by contrast, is a natural feeding method that causes none of the pollution problems associated with feedlots and factory farms (including that of waste management). By supporting farms in Uruguay, the local economy is boosted, the biodiversity of the Pampas is preserved, and sustainable farming is encouraged throughout the country.
