  • Sporting Group Study Guide Naturally Active and Alert, Sporting Dogs Make Likeable, Well-Rounded Companions
    Sporting Group Study Guide Naturally active and alert, Sporting dogs make likeable, well-rounded companions. Remarkable for their instincts in water and woods, many of these breeds actively continue to participate in hunting and other field activities. Potential owners of Sporting dogs need to realize that most require regular, invigorating exercise. The breeds of the AKC Sporting Group were all developed to assist hunters of feathered game. These “sporting dogs” (also referred to as gundogs or bird dogs) are subdivided by function—that is, how they hunt. They are spaniels, pointers, setters, retrievers, and the European utility breeds. Of these, spaniels are generally considered the oldest. Early authorities divided the spaniels not by breed but by type: either water spaniels or land spaniels. The land spaniels came to be subdivided by size. The larger types were the “springing spaniel” and the “field spaniel,” and the smaller, which specialized on flushing woodcock, was known as a “cocking spaniel.” ~~How many breeds are in this group? 31~~ 1. American Water Spaniel a. Country of origin: USA (lake country of the upper Midwest) b. Original purpose: retrieve from skiff or canoes and work ground c. Other Names: N/A d. Very Brief History: European immigrants who settled near the great lakes depended on the region’s plentiful waterfowl for sustenance. The Irish Water Spaniel, the Curly-Coated Retriever, and the now extinct English Water Spaniel have been mentioned in histories as possible component breeds. e. Coat color/type: solid liver, brown or dark chocolate. A little white on toes and chest is permissible.

  • 2017 Horrible Hundred Report
    The Horrible Hundred 2017 A sampling of problem puppy mills and puppy dealers in the United States May 2017 For the fifth straight year, The Humane Society of the United States is reporting on problem puppy mills, including some dealers (re-sellers) and transporters. The Horrible Hundred 2017 report is a list of known, problematic puppy breeding and/or puppy brokering facilities. It is not a list of all puppy mills, nor is it a list of the worst puppy mills in the country. The HSUS provides this update annually, not as a comprehensive inventory, but as an effort to inform the public about common, recurring problems at puppy mills. The information in this report demonstrates the scope of the puppy mill problem in America today, with specific examples of the types of violations that researchers have found at such facilities, for the purposes of warning consumers about the inhumane conditions that so many puppy buyers inadvertently support. The year 2017 has been a difficult one for puppy mill watchdogs. Efforts to get updated information from the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) on federally-inspected puppy mills were severely crippled due to the USDA’s removal on Feb. 3, 2017 of all animal welfare inspection reports and most enforcement records from the USDA website. As of April 20, 2017, the USDA had restored some Puppies at the facility of Alvin Nolt in Thorpe, Wisconsin, were found on unsafe wire flooring, a repeat violation at the facility. Wire flooring animal welfare records on research facilities and is especially dangerous for puppies because their legs can become other types of dealers, but almost no records on entrapped in the gaps, leaving them unable to reach food, water or pet breeding operations were restored.

  • Pet Doors for Dog Breeds That Are Hard to Potty-Train
    Pet Doors for Dog Breeds that are Hard to Potty-Train petdoorproducts.com/pet-doors-for-dog-breeds-that-are-hard-to-potty-train Potty-training a new canine takes confidence and consistency along with a whole lot of patience and understanding. Training the average dog to go outside when they need to relieve themselves can be a formidable situation for new pet owners. But, pets with a stubborn disposition or dog breeds that are hard to potty-train can quickly turn this essential training into a battle of wills, if you’re not fully prepared. When it comes to training your pup, it is important to be firm but also remember to be patient. Along with house-training and learning new commands, a new puppy needs to feel safe, secure and loved in their new home. There are many things you can do to make potty-training easier for yourself and your pup. Anticipating accidents in the beginning and the occasional accident during training will help keep your expectations reasonable. The best thing you can do for yourself and your pet is to install a pet door for easy access to ‘go’ when they need to go. For very small dogs, a training pad near where they exit the house to go outside is a good idea until they can master the pet door. Establishing vocal commands early on will help your pooch to recognize your authority, a firm ‘no’ should be the first command learned. An affordable, customized pet door from Pet Door Products will easily fit into your lifestyle by making crucial house training as convenient as possible.

Yorkies were first bred for use as ratters in mine shafts and clothing mills in Northern England. They made their way to North America in the 1870s and were acknowledged by the AKC in 1885. They have adjusted to a more laidback lifestyle in today’s world and particularly enjoy spending time indoors with their families. Despite their comfort indoors though, Yorkies are active dogs and still need at least a daily walk.
