Dog and Cat friends
The friendship between dogs and cats is entirely possible and there are many studies that have been done, and even being made, about the affection of these two species. It is beautiful to see and tell interesting stories of how our pets are easily made friends, play games and are protected from each other. For this friendship lasts forever both should be treated equally, with the same care, the bathroom, game, food etc. This friendship is such that sometimes the dog lets the kitty eat from his plate but sometimes it did not and it's better for everyone to have their dish for many reasons. 2. 7. 10. 15.

Unexpected Friends
Cute A bear, a tiger and a lion. They’re dangerous predators, but they’re friends. The reason they do not attack each other or consider the other as rivals, is that they were brought up together. Source
100 Years of Breed “Improvement”
For the sake of honest disclosure, I will admit to owning “purebreds” (the ‘pureness’ of purebreeds is a discussion for another time) but I also have mutts. All the dogs I’ve had since childhood had a few things in common, they were friendly, prey driven, ball-crazy, intense, motivated, athletic (crazy dogs are easier to train) and none had intentionally bred defects. I would never buy/adopt a dog whose breed characteristics exacted a health burden. The dogs on the left are from the 1915 book, ‘Breeds of All Nations‘ by W.E. It seems incredible that at one time the Bull Terrier was a handsome, athletic dog. The Basset Hound has gotten lower, has suffered changes to its rear leg structure, has excessive skin, vertebra problems, droopy eyes prone to entropion and ectropion and excessively large ears. A shorter face means a host of problems. The Dachshund used to have functional legs and necks that made sense for their size. Once a noble working dog, the modern St. Further Reading Like this:
Animal Sleep
Most animals have a daily pattern of rest and activity. Some animals are more active during the day (diurnal) and some are more active during the night (nocturnal). How much time do animals spend sleeping? Well, it depends on the animal: References: This table was adapted from four sources: Aserinsky, E., Eyelid condition at birth: relationship to adult mammalian sleep-waking patterns, In Rapid Eye Movement Sleep, edited by B.N.
A Dog's Seeing Eye Dog
Lily is a Great Dane that has been blind since a bizarre medical condition required that she have both eyes removed. For the last 5 years, Maddison, another Great Dane, has been her sight. The two are, of course, inseparable. (via Weird Universe, Daily Record, The Sun)

Dog Body Language
SEE ALSO: ABCs of Dog Life, Getting The Behavior You Want From Your Dog, Meeting Fearful Dogs Safely, Staying Safe Around Dogs Just like people, dogs communicate using “body language.” Your dog is communicating with his entire body, not just his tail or his voice. If you want to know how he is feeling, you’ll need to learn to read your particular dog’s body language. To get a sense of what your dog is trying to tell you, spend as much time as you can observing your dog and his body posture. Dog body language Because each dog is an individual and will express fear, aggression, stress or joy slightly differently, there are no hard and fast rules for interpreting dog body language. Play bow The rear end of the dog is up, while the front end is down. Tail wagging Contrary to popular belief, tail wagging can mean many things: A low-hung wagging tail could mean: “I am scared or unsure.”A high, stiff wag can mean: “I am agitated, unsure or scared, but not submissive.

Abused Animal Story - Oogy's Story
When our dog Oogy was about ten weeks old and weighed 20 pounds he was tied to a stake and used as bait for a Pit Bull. The left side of his face including most of his ear was torn off. He was bitten so hard a piece of his lower jaw was crushed. Afterward, he was thrown into a cage and left to bleed to death. He was found by police when they raided the facility and taken to an emergency service operating out of Ardmore Animal Hospital, in a suburb of Philadelphia. There, Diane Klein, the Office’s Director of Operations, simply refused to allow the dog to die. The records from the ER have long since disappeared. Not long after this occurred, my sons Noah and Dan and I took our 17 year old cat Buzz to AAH for what would be his final visit. Life goes out one door and comes in another. “This is one of the happiest dogs I’ve ever met” Dr Bianco told us. Dr. While Dogos are ferocious hunters they are also loving, loyal family pets. Dr. When I related that story to Dr. Laurence M.
