Tails wag in this lost-dog story

A great heart warming story another two beagles reunited with their owner after three while weeks! Being a Beagle owner myself I can understand how, when their hunting instinct takes over they go into a world if their own.

Woman fed up with dog's droppings hurls them back

Hello everyone.

Reading this news article, you can understand why don't people have an issue with dogs and dog owners.  It is this type of irresponsible behavior that gives dogs a bad name.  You can't blame the dog for what is a natural function.

Tips For Keeping Your Aging Dog Healthy

from Dog Grooming by Carl Jones

Have you noticed that your dog is beginning to age, and normal every day activities are becoming more and more difficult? If this is the case with your dog, then you’ll be happy to know that there are a number of things you can do to keep him happy and healthy as he goes through the aging process.

First, you have to keep your dog’s weight in check. Obesity is one of the biggest problems with dogs and when your dog is overweight, he can begin to experience other problems like joint pain, diabetes, arthritis, and other issues.

You want to be able to reward your dog with treats, but it is not good to constantly give them to him so keep it to a minimum. Another important tip is to maintain a steady diet for your dog by only giving him or her the amount of food that is needed.

As your dog continues to age you might want to observe him when he is eating. Is he having trouble eating the dry dog food because his teeth aren’t so strong anymore? If this is the case, consider switching to a canned dog food which will be easier for him to eat.

Keep an eye on children when they are around your aging dog because a lot of times children like to feed them whatever they can. This obviously is not helpful when you’re trying to control your dog’s diet so try to prevent this type of activity.

Water is also a very important part of your dog’s every day life and you want to always have plenty of water available for your dog to drink. Consider keeping water in a few areas of the house or outside of the house so that your aging dog can easily get a drink when he wants to.

Take your dog on daily walks. This activity is so important for an aging dog because it helps circulation and can also help the digestion process. Not only that, it helps keep your dog physically fit and may help stretch out sore, aching muscles.

Providing for an aging dog can be a time consuming task, but it is necessary. If you want to keep your aging dog healthy and happy, then keep these few simple tips in mind and you’ll be well on your way to providing a wonderful life for your dog.
