Adopting a new pet
Adopt rather than
buy, and save a life!
by Paula Colvett
So you've decided to obtain a new pet for your household. Before you
purchase a new pet, why not check out your area animal shelter or humane society? By
adopting from a shelter, you not only save the life of the animal you adopt, but also the
lives of all those animals awaiting a vacancy in the shelter so they will have a place to
go. Here are some tips and tricks so that both you and your pet will be happy!!
Doggie Dress Up
Are you crazy about
dogs.
Do you dress them up for Halloween,
special events, and just because it's Tuesday? It's time you got out of the closet and
declare to the world that you're crazy.
It's OK. We'll understand.
Don't believe us? Take a look!!

"Cats
and Dogs"
by Joanne

Charlotte Observer Movie Critic
movie
review
 "Cat and
Dogs" is a parody on the eternal struggle between dogs and cats. The Brody family
doesnt know that they are under siege by mischievous cats. The cats are planning to
scratch out humans and dogs so they can rule the world. "Cats and Dogs" has
something for everyone. Theres slapstick humor for kids, including dogs and cats
comically crashing into trees. Find out more and see a trailer of the movie as well as the
official website which is a lot of fun, too!!
The Showgoats
Vet-by-day,
Musician-by-night
hosted by Joanne Spataro
 Dr. Walker Meadows, a talented veterinarian, has a fun and unique hobby. When
its time to call it a day, Dr. Meadows enjoys playing music in his band The
Showgoats. It helps him unwind after his busy days taking care of animals. The
Showgoats specialize in country tunes, complete with catchy lyrics and excellent
music! Dr. Meadows was inspired to be a veterinarian when he was in high school. He was a
stable hand for a carriage company. He enjoyed the regular visits a veterinarian made to
check up on the horses. And so he became one.

Alternatives to Playing Fetch on Those Dog Day Afternoons . . .
by Cynthia Gallagher
Anyone who thinks dog ownership is easier than child rearing
obviously never had to entertain two energetic boxers cooped up inside on a rainy day. For
a breed that loves to run and frolic, high-speed chases around the sectional sofa hold
their interest only so long. Made a desperate woman by two pairs of plaintive brown eyes,
I thought back to the favorite games of my own childhood. The surprising results are
guaranteed to wear out even the most active dogs, rain and/or shine.
