Find your match

If you want to see the breed first and then decide what you want to go for- here's an amazing website to help you.


Its for my friend, she is trying to get a pet for her and she wasn't sure like all first timers what would be the right kind for her. Yep, I know how it feels, so I promised I would find her some help.

This site as I came across looked pretty cool and I liked the fact that you could go through so many breeds to get a feel. If my friends browsing through it, I though I might as well post it here, you could use it yourself or just pass it on for people who might need it.

Now you know what is your type of a dog!

Licensing your Dog

licensing dogsHave you licensed your dog? Here's how this can benefit you dear owner says New York Law:

  • Assists in medical follow-up for people potentially exposed to sick or infected dogs, especially in cases of possible exposure to rabies.
  • Helps reunite dogs with their owners in cases of separation. Licensing is an important step for family emergency preparedness.
  • Allows New Yorkers to use dog runs and off-leash areas in City parks.
  • Promotes spaying and neutering by discounting license fees for owners of fixed pets.
  • Reminds owners that their dogs must be vaccinated against rabies. Rabies vaccination provides protection for both people and their pets.
