This is an important documentary about the pedigree dog world and the consequences it’s having on our dogs. Please find the time to watch it.

It’s really important to get the word out, so we can at least have a conversation about it. In my opinion, after over-population and animal cruelty, it’s one of the worst things we could continue letting happen to our canine friends.

As always, please leave your thoughts in the comment section. Be nice to each other and let’s get talking! I’d love to hear all your opinions.

From FOX News

A wrinkly dog has received a full face lift and a double eye lift costing $897 so he won’t go blind.

The abandoned shar pei, named Roland, from Australia, is highly prized for his wrinkly skin. But the breed suffers from entropion, a painful condition in which his wrinkles cause his eyelashes to turn inward and rub against his eyeballs, The Daily Telegraph in Sydney reported.

If left untreated the condition could have caused Roland to go blind and was preventing him from finding a home. So the dog has had cosmetic surgery.

Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals chief veterinarian Magdoline Awad said the 90-minute surgery was not about vanity.

“What we have done is made him adoptable,” she said.

“It is not uncommon in this breed, it is a congenital problem.”

Roland now has a better chance at finding a good home as a family could adopt him without having to pay for the surgery, Dr Awad said.

From Chicago Tribune

WATERLOO, Iowa – Iowa veterinarians are warning pet owners to be careful when they take their pets out for a walk in the cold blanketing the state.

Dr. Chad Smith of Taylor Veterinary Clinic in Cedar Falls advises pet owners to put booties on their dog’s paws before heading outdoors. He adds sweaters and coats are good, too.

According to Smith, coats are especially good for dogs with short fur. He adds owners should be careful not to take their pets out into the cold for extended periods of time.

Cedar Bend Humane Society administrative assistant Jessica Parker says the shelter limits their dogs to 10 minutes of outdoor time in colder temperatures.

Smith also says it is important for pet owners to keep the fur on the bottom of their dog’s paws clean and short to prevent snow and ice buildup.

Dog Fighting Raids In Montgomery, Georgia

By Dena Stapleton for the Savannah Pets Examiner

No one county is immune to the fact that dog fighting may be going on there. It is becoming a harder practice for more and more people as more citizens are becoming fed up with the dog fighting practices and actually starting to call in to authorities on what they see and hear. That was the case in Montgomery County, GA. Kenneth Jordan of Higgston is facing multiple charges of animal cruelty due to what investigator found at his home.

When the authorities got there all they saw was pine trees, but when they really started to look they found dogs, lots of dogs. They found twenty-two pit bulls, including a mother with her nine puppies. One of the puppies was not doing well and was close to dying. The dogs had no or little water or food which left them very dehydrated and starved. Others displayed scars that showed these dogs were used in fighting. The dogs were also chained by 40 pound logging chains, not a typical behavior for a pet dog. Mr. Jordan claims he loves his dogs and would never fight them but the surroundings told a different story. The authorities also uncovered an area that appeared to be about a dozen dog graves.

The sheriff had suspected this was going on in his county but was shocked that only a few hours after this initial seize he had received another tip of a possible dog fighting operation less than a half-mile away. Once they got there they found eighteen more dogs. They cannot find the owner at the second residence and are still looking for him. There is a toll free hotline for the Montgomery County area where people can call in if they suspect a dog fighting operation to be going on. The number is (877) 215-2250.
