Download or read book Almost Too Many Dogs written by Charlotte Higgins-Lee and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2015-08-27 with total page 61 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This uplifting little book tells the true life stories of a few dogs who were lucky enough to be rescued and fostered until good homes could be found. TOLD SIMPLY, MOSTLY FROM THE LOVEABLE DOGS' POINTS OF VIEW, THIS DELIGHTFUL BOOK SPEAKS ALSO FOR CHILDREN WHO GO THROUGH THE FOSTER CARE/ADOPTION SYSTEM. Some kids and pets have a rough journey before they get a safe, loving home. Some have to be placed a couple of times before getting a good fit. We wish all of them could be born lucky and always be happy! There needs to be enough good, "forever" homes for every pet that is born. ('FOREVER" MEANS "FOREVER," NOT "WHILE IT IS CONVENIENT." IT MEANS "EVEN WHEN THE PET GETS OLD OR SICK." IT MEANS, WHEN YOU MOVE, YOU TAKE THE PET WITH YOU.) Until then, good and kind people need to provide rescue, shelter, foster, and adoption services for those who get an unlucky break. For pets, MUCH of the answer is taking the responsibility to protect them, not let them run loose, vaccinate them, and to spay or neuter them. (A neutered or spayed pet lives a longer, healthier life and does NOT create MORE pets that need homes.) Rescue, fostering and adoption are hard work. Sometimes sad. LOVE is what keeps those animal welfare people trying. Most are volunteers. They LIVE for the happy endings! A loving heart is a loving heart, no matter in what chest it beats.

Book excerpt: I was nothing. Like so many more animals, tucked away from public view, hidden in hot garages, desolate locations and cages. I was nothing more than a money making machine. I was starved, neglected, void of kind, humane contact. My job was to produce a product that could reap the best rewards with very little investment. I had to produce beautiful and desirable, registered pups to be sold around the world to the highest bidder. As for me, I was disposable. I had to produce as many litters of pups as possible. When I could no longer produce what the owner wanted; my life was over or so I thought!
Download or read book Laws Policies Attitudes and Processes That Shape the Lives of Puppies in America written by Carmen M. Cusack and published by Liverpool University Press. This book was released on 2016-03-01 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Puppies -- nubile, tender, and pure -- have become endeared to U.S. society, and to some extent, the world. Puppies are the holy grail of animal companions to Americans. They are glorified above other animals and protected by numerous laws, yet they are systematically, lawfully, and illegally abused, tortured, and killed. A vast array of opinions, policies, protocols, rules, regulations, and laws govern treatment or mistreatment of puppies demonstrating that appreciation for puppies is neither ubiquitous, nor superseding. Puppies may be subjected to painful product testing in the U.S., but not in Europe, despite their glorified status above other animals. This book details the myriad of laws, policies, attitudes, misfortunes, and processes shaping puppies' lives in America. Specialized topics such as Bestiality, Child Grooming, Pornography, Film, Mythology, and Art are addressed to build an argument that overall, treatment of puppies in the U.S. reflects priorities, needs, values, and morals which are contextually based on human desires, capabilities, survival mechanisms, altruism, American family life, and the economy. The randomized yet selective treatment of puppies typifies American culture, and to some extent other cultures, at least in the American purview. The author analyzes physiological comparisons between humans and dogs to discover why Americans may be so interested in puppies. The foundations of this research are law, social and behavioral science, policies, history, politics, animal studies, animal welfare, criminal justice, sociology, anthropology, and current events.
