Since our last post, new information has been released, and further studies have been conducted. A very small amount of dogs have been confirmed to be infected with the virus. A German Shepherd in New York was the first confirmed case, announced on June 2nd, of an infected dog in the United States. Find out more about this virus and our pets.

We all feel lonely sometimes. It's just a fact of life. But those moments of loneliness can serve a purpose, reminding us of how precious time with our friends and loved ones truly is. Those moments when we are alone can help us appreciate the time we spend with others even more. But what if the loneliness wasn't inevitable, but a relatively brief moment in a life otherwise filled with love and companionship?

For decades, we've known dogs as protective, loyal creatures that make lifelong companions. The media shows these animals as Old Yellers and Air Buds that would do whatever it takes to keep us safe. Does this representation translate to real life, though? It would appear so, as a recent study revealed that dogs want to rescue their owners, but only if they know-how.

The American Pit Bull Terrier is a breed that is marred by its dark past, but this loyal and loving breed is now seeing new positive roles such as becoming therapy dogs. Learn more about these beautiful dogs!
