Playing is fun, but a pet owner's primary responsibility is to monitor their pet's health and look out for medical problems.

Why should you do a genetic test on your dog?
Genetic tests in humans are already a common reality to find out about preventable genetic diseases or even to find out the ethnic origin of our ancestors. For example, it is already common to analyze the presence of certain mutations in genes to understand the probability of a person to suffer from certain types of cancer. How could it be otherwise, these types of tests are beginning to be available for our fellow dogs and thus be able to give them better health.

Do You know what is best for your dog?
This is my little fat pit, Luna. She is such a joy and very well behaved. Took a very short time to train her because she, like most animals and kids.. if you take time and consistency, it doesn't take long to train or teach them. I just wanted to share a few things I have learned along the way having dogs for quite a while now and if I do not know I ask GOD (google) for the answer. I never take just one site's advice either. I look at multiple sites and then go from the most common answer from them.

The Dog that Saved my Life
The day my dog, Denali, saved my life is definitely my fondest memory of her. She is my unofficial service animal and I highly recommend you get one of your own. You never know when their unconditional love, dedication, and steadfast companionship will come in handy. Dogs are known for saving the lives of humans for many years running. They can even be trained to do so in a number of ways. The course of action she took to rescue me would probably be considered a non-traditional method, with no training required.

Meeting Denali
I remember the first time I met my best friend in life and I will cherish that memory forever. I walked into her previous owner’s home and she barked at me timidly, then circled around my person, growling. Her owner, Matthew, said, “Denali, it’s o.k. girl!” Obediently, with her tail between her legs, she walked to the corner of the room and laid down, watching my every move. The humans talked for a while as she laid there in her safe place, watching me, sizing up my intentions within this house.
