SmallDogs.com:- This
site is dedicated to man's best friend since ages, the
dog.
Dogs are a species that have
evolved from wolves and have been domesticated to blend well
into man's social living structure.
Dogs are known to be highly
social animals. They are known for their trainability and
playfulness along with a sincere approach. They often view
humans as one of their own pack. In many countries, dogs play a
very important role of being a human companion apart from their
roles of being work dogs.
Dogs have lived and worked with
humans in so many roles that they have earned themselves a
unique title of being 'man's best
friend'.
Overpopulation:- According to the
Humane Society of the United States, 3-4 million dogs and cats
are etherized each year in the United States and many more are
confined to cages in shelters because there are many more
animals than there are homes. Spaying or neutering animals
helps keep overpopulation down. Local humane societies such as
RSPCA and other animal protection organizations urge people to
spay or neuter their pets and to adopt animals from shelters
instead of purchasing them.
