Lupus wants to help his friends...

Lupus and I have found a few good sites that we'd like to share with everyone.

Lost Pooches

If your dog is lost or stolen it's definitely worth registering on www.doglost.co.uk as they have a network of 'helpers' across the UK who will put up posters and keep an eye out for your pet. They're also keen to recruit new helpers, so if you're a dog lover and want to help just go to the site and register. It only takes a minute.

Animal Cruelty

Nobody likes cruelty to animals, so I was horrified to read that a large pet food supplier was at the centre of a controversial investigation in to their practices by PETA, which is 'People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals'. The pet food supplier in question was IAMS, and full details can be found on this website - www.iamscruelty.com.

Now that should be the end of it, but I then found another blog which is written by Rocca, who seems a likeable enough pooch. However, Rocca has pointed out that PETA aren't as sqeaky clean as they make out, causing quite a backlash within certain circles. I haven't had chance to read it all yet, but why don't you check them out and make up your own mind.

It's a real shame that organisations like PETA can't simply help animals, without resorting to Guerilla tactics and causing controversy in the process, as that completely undermines any good work they may be doing in the process. According to this website though, they're not doing too much good work at the moment!
