Animals and Pets

Dogs do a lot of odd things, but compulsive, repetitive behaviour may be a sign of skin irritation or pain.

Since last December, cases of avian flu have been rising steadily across Canada, the U.S., and much of the rest of the world.

“Man’s best friend” isn’t just a phrase to describe dogs anymore. According to a survey conducted by pet caregiver site Wag!, pet owners are more likely to miss their furry friends than a spouse or children while they’re at work.

Whether pain actually decreased, or people were just distracted, therapy dogs seem to have the power to make us feel better when it matters the most.
