I keep up with the progress of Michael Vicks dogs. The dogs are an inspiration and should be a perfect example that our badly abused Pit Bulls are not all what everyone says they are. You have to know a Pit Bull to understand a Pit Bull. If one only reads and believe what they read then you are an ignorant person who chooses not to be educated in knowing just how these dogs are and of course you are going to pass judgement. To me, these type of people are prejudice. If your prejudice of a dog br… Continue

The American Kennel Club offers the Canine Good Citizen title to dogs who pass a basic temperament, manners and training test.

The CGC progra… Continue

Every day thousands of animals depend on private funds to help keep many shelters running. For these animals, that wait becomes very stressful because they have no one to love them. For many, help came to late. Our volunteers and rescuers are dedicated individuals that spend countless of… Continue
Ways to Volunteer
We are all on ASPCA Community because we all share the same compassion and that is helping an animal. Our shelters and rescuers are overwhelmed trying to save as many animals as they can. We all know that we will not be able to save them all and some are better off crossing the rainbow bridge. As much as it hurts it is a sad reality of life. At times I just can’t understand our human race on how these animals are treated. The human race has no regards towards animals and just… Continue
