Just yesterday one of my son’s friend’s dog got in between him and a rattle snake!! The dog suffered a snake bite and was fortunately taken to the vet in time… but that dog saved the 6 year old boy from a potentially deadly rattlesnake bite!! That’s a great dog!

Thank you! Kids learn alot from dogs and dogs are great companions, friends and protectors. They are also great for toddlers to hold on to when they are learning to walk! haha!

I agree with you 1000%! I can’t imagine my life growing up without dogs around and I am so glad to be bale to give that same gift to my son.

There is nothing better for a kid than a pet- and since dogs are the best pets…

Our dogs have been pillows and playtime companions for our boys since the moment they came home from the hospital. Wouldn’t trade it for the world.
