The Leader of the Pack Howls!
Spring has sprung and we are heading into Summer! What a fabulous time of year to enjoy all the things this area has to offer with our 4-legged friends. The events are gearing up and there are many planned in May and June to enjoy with your “best friend.” (See our calendar for listings.)
I’d like to thank Lew Rees for gracing our cover and sharing his story about his lifelong love for animals. He has devoted his time and resources to helping so many animals in our community. I know you all enjoy his story.
As always, our writers have come up with many fascinating stories for this issue. I am so grateful for their talent and dedication to The Prescott Dog. In this issue, you will read about an amazing rescue organization called “Dogs with Disabilities” and meet the “amazing” dogs whose spirits will not be dampened by their physical limitations. (We could all learn a thing or two from these very special dogs) In our “Working Canines” feature you will learn the difference between “Assistance Dogs vs Therapy Dogs” and the people who train them to help us humans in so many ways. It is a very educational story that will clear up many misconceptions about these “Working Canines.” An if you’ve ever wondered what kind of dog you should get, you’ll definitely want to read “Finding Your New Best Friend.” It is filled with information about how to choose the best dog to fit your family and lifestyle. There are so many things to consider and this article will give you the guidance you need to make good choices for you, your family and your “New Best Friend.” And if you can’t figure out what breeds Fido came from, you won’t want to miss our “Pet Health” feature about DNA Testing. That’s right, there is now new technologies available that will help you find out the lineage of your “best friend.” WOW! What will they come up with next!
No matter what kind of pet you have, one thing is for sure…the human/animal bond is a strong one and it has been proven that pets improve the quality of our life. They bring us joy, laughter, companionship and enrich our lives every day so give your pet a hug today!
Love, Light, Laughter and of course, Biscuits!
