Adopt rather than buy, and save a life!
by Paula Colvett
colvett.jpg (4118 bytes)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!!

Joanne's Movie Reviews:
"Cats and Dogs"

by Joanne Spataro
Charlotte Observer Movie Critic
gonext.gif (388 bytes)movie review
jomovielogo.jpg (4471 bytes)"Cat and Dogs" is a parody on the eternal struggle between dogs and cats. The Brody family doesn’t 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. There’s 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
meadows.jpg (6482 bytes)freshair100x100.jpg (11427 bytes)Dr. Walker Meadows, a talented veterinarian, has a fun and unique hobby. When it’s 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.

Unique Alternatives to Playing Fetch on Those Dog Day Afternoons . . .
by Cynthia Gallagher
gallagher.jpg (4570 bytes)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.
