Looking to adopt a pet? There are thousands of terrific dogs (and other animals) in shelters across the country waiting and hoping to be adopted by a loving family. Rather than buying a pet from a store or breeder, please consider reviewing nationwide animal shelter links to find your new best friend. There are several that we recommend..... PetBond and PetFinder, are just two of them. These databases search shelters, rescue organizations and foster care homes to find YOU the perfect pet! Search by animal type, breed, age, size, sex or color. Save a life - ADOPT A PET!

Animal Heros .... We loved this story about prison inmates becoming puppy raisers. Not only are these puppies being raised to be good guide dogs, but the inmates who raise them benefit too. Learn more about this interesting program at the Puppies Behind Bars.website.
Dogs With Jobs is a fantastic book about all kinds of working dogs - guide dogs, service dogs, sled dogs, rescue dogs, show dogs, racing dogs & more.
