1. Blaming your farts on me….. not funny… not funny at all !!!
2. Yelling at me for barking. I’M A FRIGGIN’ DOG
3. Taking me for a walk, then not letting me check stuff out. Exactly whose walk is this anyway?
4. Any trick that involves balancing food on my nose. Stop it!
5. Any haircut that involves bows or ribbons. Now you know why we chew your stuff up when you’re not home.
6. The sleight of hand, fake fetch throw. You fooled a dog! Whoooo Hoooooooo what a proud moment for the top of the food chain.
7. Taking me to the vet for “the big snip”, then acting surprised when I freak out every time we go back!
8. Getting upset when I sniff the crotches of your guests. Sorry, but I haven’t quite mastered that handshake thing yet.
9. Dog sweaters. Hello ??? Haven’t you noticed the fur?
10. How you act disgusted when I lick myself. Look, we both know the truth. You’re just jealous.
Now lay off me on some of these things. We both know who’s boss here! You don’t see me picking up your poop do you?

Kill Vs. No Kill Shelters...
This is a serious blog entry and its one of those touchy subjects for pet lovers so please bare with me and try to read the whole thing with an open mind. Many dont really understand why there is a need for kill shelters and to be honest no one wants to have them around but as long as there are so many homeless/unwanted pets there will always be a need for them. As a Veterinary Tech. I have worked for a few animal hospitals and then later on down the line decided to work in a shelter environment. First was the North Shore Animal Leagueno kill and last was the NYC ACC aka the city poundkill. Now at first when i came to the ACC it was very hard to see so many unwanted or unadoptable pets being put to sleep, even worse was that the Techs were responsible for this job and we had to take a course to be certified to humanely euthanize animals. The first day was the hardest for me but after awhile you start to see the big picture. Most of these animals would have been thrown on the street to be hit by a car, starved from neglect, set on fire or abused in some way, used as bait or fought on the regular, chained up in someones backyard, thrown out of cars or windows…you name it, ive seen it all and to be honest id rather see them go humanely than to be suffering in any way. Now dont get me wrong, if someone can find a home for their pet that they can no longer care for then please do so but it takes a really strong person to know when they dont have the time, money or other resources to care for ther pets. Some people prolong trying to find their pets a home for selfish reasons and some are just too afraid of what may happen to their pet if they take them to the shelter. At least at the shelter they have the chance to be seen by the public and hopefully adopted. Now no kill shelters are wonderful and most of them are no kill these days however have you seen what happens to an animal when they are caged for a couple months or even years, they actually start to go mad. Lets say that one no kill shelter can house 300 animals, by the way almost all no kill shelters have no room for anymore animals and this is why…those 300 animals are holding up all those cages usually for the rest of their lives. Plus it costs a lot of money to run these shelters, think about all costs for food, meds, employees to care for the pets and so they rely on public donations to help. At a kill shelter which is usually given a set budget by the city they may have to put to sleep many animals but they are saving so many more lives because they are giving many animals a chance to be adopted. When people hear kill they already dont want to help, donate or support in any way but these are the animals that need our help the most. This is why me and Bella choose to donate to our local kill shelter specifically. No one knows more than myself how painful it is to look into two sad, neglected and unloved eyes, to hold them and reasure them that everything will be okay while putting them to sleep. By the way, if done correctly there is no pain, its just like an overdose of anesthesia and the injection puts them to sleep before the heart actually stops. To this day i still carry their pain but you know what? Like i said before there were so many more lives that were saved and those are the memories that i dwell on. Even by myself i know i did a lot, all those lunch hours spent with those animals even if i knew some wouldnt be adopted, all the phone calls i made to family/friends/media to see if they wanted a dog/cat, all the money i spent on treats and toys just for them to be able to feel somewhat normal. All of that helped and this is why we chose to do everything in our power to help out those animals in the kill shelter because they need it more than any shelter pet in my eyes. Thanks for reading my thoughts.

3. Bella plays with her toys all by herself everyday. When she feels the urge, she just runs to get one of her toys and throws it in the air, catches it, and runs around shaking it like a mad dog. She really loves having a play buddy but can entertain herself very well.
4. Bella has more friends than anyone we know.
