Test your dog knowledge and donate kibble to shelter dogs in the process. Afraid you’ll get the answer wrong? Doesn’t matter. Wrong answers donate kibble, too! One of those few instances a wrong makes a right. 
Pssst! Like cats? You can give shelter cats free food, too.

Did you find a dog wandering your neighborhood? Worried your dog is wandering in someone else’s neighborhood? Now you can put out an APB on your missing pet using Lostadog.com. Or use Foundadog.com to search for the frantic owner of the dog who wandered into your yard this morning.
Tailor your search to a specific US town or state by selecting the state, then the town from the pull down menus. If your town isn’t on the site, they will add it upon request.
A $10 fee is charged for posting a missing pet, but certainly worth the money if it helps Fido find his way home.

Wishing everyone a great and safe Fourth.
Below is a picture of four-week-old Vivian and her two brothers, Argon and Monty, taken two years ago. Funny to think she once fit in the palm of our hand.
