Saluki Puppy And Dog Information
By Mitch Endick
The Saluki is a beautiful, regal and royal dog. They can be a bit aloof, especially to people that they do not know well. They tend to be a one family or a one person dog. They may do well with other dogs, especially if well socialized early. Never trust them with other pets as they may consider them fair game and prey. They need plenty of space to exercise on. They like well behaved children. As a reminder, never leave a child unsupervised with a puppy or dog….

Looked to me that they might have been on the road a while as they staggered out of their rigs and were quite stiff as they got around to their chores of setting up camp….

Alternative Horse Therapy
by Kelvin Ho
Traditional veterinary medicine, much like in the human world, is often based on treating symptoms rather than the cause, or the underlying problem. Alternative horse therapies, on the other hand, are ancient forms of treatment that take a holistic approach to the whole body, mind, and spirit of the horse, to treat the underlying causes of problems manifesting in the body, and promote an overall sense of well being….
