Dog
Walking Class
December 13, 2008
Colleen Garland and Marj Smith have offered to host our one-hour training
sessions for CDHS volunteer dog walkers. This training is designed to help
all dog walkers be safe and consistent in their handling of the dogs, hopefully,
helping our dogs become more obedient and more adoptable. More

book. That's what CDHS staff and volunteers found out at Barnes and Noble
Booksellers when they arrived for Storytime. More

A Year-Round Happening
Of course, every day at CDHS is an event and no two days are the same! If you
haven't already, we invite you to visit our shelter. CDHS also welcomes
volunteers to come and spend one-on-one time with our residents awaiting
adoption. More

Pet Tip:
Puppy mills are mass breeding establishments that often produce dogs in
conditions of filth, lack of shelter, overcrowding and insufficient food, water
and veterinary care. If you buy a puppy mill
puppy, you contribute directly to the misery of the adult dogs who spend their
entire lives as nothing more than puppy-producing machines. Although not
all dogs in pet shops are from puppy mills, most dogs bred at puppy mills do
end up in pet shops. Puppy mills continue to exist because people buy dogs
from pet stores that sell puppies bred at these cruel establishments. You
can get a great pet and a great deal by working with a shelter or rescue group,
but if you simply must have a purebred puppy, please go to these links and find
out what you should know about your breeder before you make a purchase.
