Aromatherapy Has Gone to the Dogs! |
Results from a study conducted by Deborah L. Wells (Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association) showed that Aromatherapy (lavender scent to be specific) had a calming affect on dogs when traveling. Dogs that participated in the study spent more time sitting and resting and less time barking and moving. This is good news for dogs that become over-anxious when it’s time for a car ride! |
Website Update! |
I am currently updating the Rescue and Sanctuary Links Page! All organizations will soon be listed by state...which hopefully will make finding a new friend to adopt much easier. Please be patient as I add each state. If you would like to add an organization, please send an email to kathy@bunnyroobeagle.com |

Great Book Alert! |
Best-selling author, Peter Howe has written a children’s book titled: “Waggit’s Tale.” This touching story revolves around a pup named Waggit who unfortunately, is abandoned by his owner in a city park. Luckily for Waggit, he meets a team of mutts who teach him the ways of the world and how to survive. Though Waggit is a natural when it comes to hunting for food he longs for the comforts of a real home. Waggit’s Tale is beautifully written and illustrated. One reason this book caught my eye is that it is based on the real life of the author’s dog who just so happens to be named…ROO! In the book you will also find a glossary (to better understand the language of dogs!) and a map of the park in which Waggit is initially abandoned. This book would make a great gift for anyone who loves dogs…no matter what their age! So if you enjoy a good dog story that is tender, touching, and well written, be sure to read "Waggit’s Tale!" While you are at it…add it to your holiday shopping list! |
Please be patient while site loads....sit and stay! |
Fish For Thought! |
An aquarium is a great way to provide countless hours of entertainment for your cat! If you own a cat, you may want to consider investing in a small fish tank. Gazing at fish will not only provide entertainment for your kitty, it can be beneficial to you as well! Fish gazing is a proven method of relaxation, in fact, getting lost in thought while staring at an aquarium can also help to lower your blood pressure! Of course, if you do get a tank, make sure that the fish are safe from cat attacks. You wouldn't want Nemo to become cat chow! |

BLUEBERRIES A Yummy Canine Treat! |
Blueberries, YES, I said blueberries, are a wonderful treat for your dog! Full of antioxidants, vitamin C, vitamin E, and fiber, blueberries are available year round (fresh or frozen) and your pup will love them! Word of warning....as with any new food, introduce this special treat slowly and in small portions as cleaning up blueberry diarreah is most unpleasant! Always rinse the berries before serving. Serve whole or slightly mashed...YUMMY! |

Gift Idea For The Dog Walker In Your Life! |
Most, if not all, sugarless gums on the market today contain an artificial sweetner called Xylitol. While this ingredient makes gum taste good without adding unwanted calories, it is toxic to dogs and should be kept out of their reach at all times! Xylitol can be found in several well known brands such as Trident, Orbitz and Ice Breakers. If ingested by your dog, one pack of gum containing Xylitol can cause serious health problems or even death! So play it safe and no matter how much Fido begs, let him know that his bubble blowing days are over and keep the gum out of his reach! On a side note, Xylitol is also known to cause diarreah in adults. Take it from someone that knows....Xylitol is NOT nice...to either humans or canines! |
Chewing Gum Warning! |

Goodbye Gus |
You may recognize Gus...he was crowned the World’s Ugliest Dog back in June. Unfortunately, he lost his battle with cancer on November 10th. Gus was a rescue dog who was taken from a neglectful home when he was just a puppy. Well loved and well cared for, he will be dearly missed by his owner, Jeanenne. Though he may not be the best looking dog on the block, Gus touched many lives and helped spread the word about dog rescue and adoption. Goodbye Gus...you will be terribly missed and never forgotten! Rest in peace. |
Well of course they do! Just like human beings, a dog’s belly button marks the place where the umbilical cord was attached while in the womb. A dog’s belly button is located in the center of his or her body at the bottom of the rib cage. |

The Chesapeake Bay Retriever |
The Chesapeake Bay Retriever is a strong, medium sized dog. They have small drop ears and yellow or amber eyes. They weigh 55 to 80 pounds, are 21 to 26 inches in height and live 10 to 13 years. This adorable and friendly pup comes in a variety of colors including shades or brown, straw, red-gold, and strawberry blonde. |
The Chesapeake Bay Retriever is a powerfully built dog. They are loyal, protective and hard working. They love to hunt (they are experts when it comes to retrieving water fowl) however, they make excellent service dogs for the disabled as well. They are sensitive yet serious dogs who are devoted, loyal companions. |
The Chesapeake Bay Retriever requires a great deal of exercise. They are strong-willed and have a powerful working drive. This breed needs both mental and physical stimulation or they will quickly become bored and possibly destructive (say goodbye to your favorite pair of shoes!). The Chesapeake Bay Retriever LOVES to swim! Long walks are nice, but not enough for this energetic, athletic breed. If you are a couch potato, this breed probably isn’t the right choice for your life style. |
Expert hunters and service dogs! |
The Chesapeake Bay Retriever is a strong willed dog that likes to be in control (dominant!). It is VERY important to socialize this breed early and often especially if you want him to get along well with other dogs. This breed loves to be part of the family and does not like to be left alone for long periods of time. They thrive on human companionship! If you would like to learn more about this wonderful, athletic, loyal working dog, please visit: The American Kennel Club |
To adopt one of these beautiful dogs, please visit Chesapeake Bay Retriever Relief and Rescue. |
Adoption is the BEST Option! |
