Hi-
I am the proud parent of 2 small chihuahuas that were recued from the pound and a rescue group. As a lifelong dog lover I was destroyed by the loss last Mother's day of my 8 yr old chi-pom mix to an unidentifiable disorder that 2 vet hospitals could not diagnose after several weeks and $4,000. in bills. had not lost a dog to illness and never so dramatically as this painful experience.
I am planning and designing a resource site dedicated to:
1) Dog Longevity- focused on nutrition and preventative healthcare
2) Information on how to pick the perfect dog for any family...encouraging saving pets/dogs from shelter, rescue groups etc.
3) Educational material on planing for every stage of a dog's life from 1st day to senior living and how to deal with loss of a loved one
Anyway, these are my areas of interest and where I have some knowledge ....I would appreciate any input as to topics or information that anyone feels would be helpful to families and individuals as they plan for a new family member and proceed to a life of love and companionship
Thank you for taking time to read and perhaps give your thoughts
B.Jim
