Looking For Love - A Dog That Is!

When you come to the decision that a dog is a fine animal to invite into your home and your heart, the next step is to go about finding the one who is waiting for you somewhere.

Some of the places to look include the classified ads, the professional breeders, the breed rescues, and the local shelters.

It can be a bit confusing, so I've written a guide to help you out when you set off on your mission to find Rover.

It's appropriately called Dog Buyers Guide. And, I think it will give you a lot of insight into what things to consider.

It's a kind of magic when you see that certain dog and know that this is the one you want to be pals with forever.

Happy tails to you.

Afghan Dog Breed

If you want a dog that draws attention like a celebrity, then the Afghan is definitely one to consider. This dog has a very glamorous appearance and an aloof demeanor to go with it. I think he knows he looks pretty special.

Underneath the gorgeous flowing coat of the Afghan, is a very affectionate and gentle dog. And, much like a celebrity, he does like to get attention! In fact he's been getting attention for the more than 5,000 years that the Afghan breed has been around.

If a touch of the exotic strikes your fancy, you can learn more about the Afghan dog breed here.

The PON - another little dog quiz

Do you know which dog is affectionately referred to as the PON? You don't?
Well I'll give you a hint - it's also known as Polski Owczarek Nizinny.

Still unsure? OK, if you a little language-challenged as I am, I'll make it even easier. How about Polish Lowland Sheepdog. Ah, now I'll bet that's better.

Whichever name you prefer, or can pronounce, one thing we're all sure to agree on, is that this dog is very appealing. In fact he's the ultimate shaggy dog, with a clownish personality to match.

A Sad Ending for Oprah's Dog

Oprah Winfrey recently lost her 2-yr old Golden Retriever under sad circumstances.

It appears he was playing with a dog toy belonging to one of her smaller dogs and choked on it. Unfortunately, no one was able to save the dog.

We know from personal experience how hard it is to lose a beloved dog under normal circumstances, but this is an especially heartbreaking way to lose a pet. Our sympathies goes out to Oprah.

Golden Retrievers are wonderful dogs and one of the most popular family companions.

A Glimpse Of The Irish Setter

An Irish Setter is a beautiful dog to behold with a gleaming set of tresses some of us would die for. This breed has a history in hunting circles and has curled up in the White House with a couple of former presidents.

He is a fun loving dog and a great family pet. Plenty of exercise is the main thing to consider when thinking about an Irish Setter - he needs a lot of it! A big play area is a real plus in addition to being taken out for long walks. Sometimes these dogs end up in rescue shelters and IMHO I think one of the more likely reasons for this is that owners didn't fully appreciate the importance of exercise for the breed.
