    Dog training the American Male by LA Knight

    This is definitely NOT your usual romantic comedy romp between the sheets and the relationship. It started kinda slow to me but it is a very funny premise about a man and woman and a dog. The woman is a radio talk show host and a psychologist. Her radio show is about relationships and it is doing poorly. Nancy has issues with men, to say the least. She moves in with her boyfriend, Jacob, he gets a dog and the dog is out of control so she hires a dog...

Last year, about 800 organizations answered the call, finding homes for roughly 9,000 animals, erasing one days worth of killing.

    Gas prices may be soaring along with the temperatures but that does not mean that you have to spend a fortune on your summer vacation with Fido.

    Taking Fido with you means that you will start your vacation ahead of the curve by saving kennel and boarding fees ($30+ a night). Create a budget, bank the...
