Dogs are my passion in life! I could never live a satisfying life without at least one...currently I have four, all rescued, of course. Three are Yorkie's (actually a Yorkie, Silky, and a Biewer). I also have a Norwegian Elkhound. I am a former K-9 Handler, Kennel Manager, Yorkie Rescue League Member, Detective Agency Owner, Interior Design Consultant, and in my lifetime I have rescued over 2000 dogs from the streets of many states. I feel fortunate that I was at the right place at the right time. Many of the animals that I have recovered were successfuly returned to anxious owners by many hours of investigative work. I encourage all to help the elderly and sick recover their missing pet. My platform in life is to educate, rescue,and attempt to work with other like-minded people to eradicate the suffering of these wonderful creatures! My other passion in life is, of course, to Party! A "Smart-Coctail" in hand, all decked out, dancing the night away! Angel Wolf 13

  • DS: DO YOU HELP THE PUBLIC FIND LOST DOGS?

    Ways to help:

    Look in LOST column of paper/internet. Volunteer to help post fliers, knock on doors and offer support and guidance. Most folks do not know how to conduct a proper search. Peruse the found column; most people do not cross-check.

    The ELDERLY and sick are not mobile. Contact the Senior Citizens Alliance and volunteer to help when Fluffy goes AWOL.

    Contact the Hospitals and offer to Foster animals while the patient recovers.

    This is my favorite way of helping strangers. No, have never or would never accept reward.

    Tell us your story, and maybe others will do the same!

    LEGIT Q: What was the longest period of time that you devoted to search/rescue?

  • DS REGS! WHAT CAN WE TEACH the NEW YOUNG DS MEMBERS?

    SCHOOL'S OUT FOR SUMMER! (oh joy) What would be 5 facts that you would like to TEACH the new kids in the "YA CLASSROOM?"..

    My contribution:

    1. Yes, kids CAN report abuse or neglect to the Humane Society or Animal Control if you can't find a trusted adult to do so.

    2. Yes, you CAN help the Humane Society...take up a collection of items or money at school and they will be thrilled!

    3. NO such thing as a TEACUP anything! That is just a money making gimmick to sell tiny, sick animals.

    4. NO, hitting a dog is NEVER OK! Training is necessary by an accredited Obedience Trainer.

    5. NO, making up stupid stories on YA is NOT awesome, it is just stupid and takes time away from other needy people that need our advice!

    Categories: Breeding problems, Shots and Health, Training, or fun facts!

    Simple + Fun = Maybe they will read it! lol

    Please star so the kids see it..

  • AFTER PROM FISH TALES...Parents....What would you do if you found out?

    Situation: Pick up kid's Tux after Prom. Kids going to private party. Bags are searched at door. Lovely young lady rushes up to you, shoves overnight bag into your arms. Says: "Here, take this home for me, I'll get it tomorrow!" .......You say..."Just a moment, young lady!" As she runs off never to be seen again.....(You have no idea who this is).....You grab son who says, "Oh, she can't take the bag in, she does not want it stolen"...."Hmmm, well, OK.....go have a good time, son!"...

    Mom immediately opens bag. Mom finds almost empty bottle of (cheap) Vodka.....Mom so furious, contacting son to get the name of girl. Nearly drops dead upon hearing who it is...Honor Student, etc. (18 yrs old).....

    So......(still trying to calm down)......informs son to tell the young lady to contact me as I will hold her accountable.

    Here is the story......... Which "could" be entirely true, btw...

    Vodka was NOT the girl's.....It "belongs" to a "21" year old that took her to the Prom.

    He is from another State........and, well, THIS explains it, "He is actually a Prince of another Country".......ahem.....

    The funny thing is, she gave the bag to the WORST person she could find. Not only did they violate the law, they placed the Mom into jeopardy, possibly ending up in jail.......Stupid Honors Students...

    And, Mom is a retired Detective, , and very, very angry.....

    Mom is positive son was not drinking.....100% he hates drinkers/smokers

    Girl was not with son or his friends

    I KNOW what I am going to do.........what would YOU do?

    PS: None of them are even concerned that I found the contraband...In my day, we would have headed to the hills to escape the wrath of MY Mother!

  • NO $$$ FOR VET, WHAT SHOULD THEY DO?

    Since we have been answering Questions from people hit by the Economic Slump who do not have available funds for the VET, WHAT DO YOU SUGGEST THEY DO TO GET THE $$$ ??????

    I will suggest holding a FUNdraiser Party for the Dog's Vet visit. Charge $10 - $20 per person at the door.

    Yard Sale

    Pawning something

    Quick Odd Jobs

    Using a "Doggie Bank" all year long...loose change adds up

    Getting Pet Insurance now

    Asking Vet to take payments...

    Humane Society has low cost Vet care

    Please come up with ideas for the people to consider! Please star, as maybe this will propel some to take action! Thanks, AW13

  • INTEGRATING 2 DOG PACKS FOR 12 WEEKS?? What do You Think of my plan?

    Leaving for Florida.....bringing my 3 Yorkies....going to a home with 3 similar dogs. ALL neutered Males... This is my plan, please give me your opinions????? I am used to integrating 1 or 2 new rescued dogs to MY packs over the years, and mine do well at Yorkie events......

    Instead of letting 6 dogs loose at first meeting, I will introduce the 2 Alpha males, followed by the two 2nd in command, followed by the two youngest, and of the same breed. (Both Biewer's)

    Then I will allow the two Alphas with the two youngest Biewers. Lastly, I will integrate our two middle dogs, who usually are the wildest!

    So, contacts of mine, and anyone else who wishes to ensure that I do not get asked to leave after 2 weeks!

    I know my pack, and I know the other dogs. I am estimating a few days for full acceptance. Any other suggestions are appreciated!

    All I want for Christmas is to escape the Frozen Tundra!

    Merry Christmas! Angel Wolf 13

  • US GLOBAL EXOTIC ANIMAL OUTRAGE! DId anyone see the story on CNN?

    On the TV show "Jane Valez Mitchell", the story regarding the Largest Animal Rescue in US History was conducted at the US Global Exotic Animal Co., in Arlington, TX The investigation of 7 months showed 10's of thousands of animals just now being rescued. Many dead, dying, or left to die in small shipping containers, never to be cared for again. They have 2 years to decide if Criminal Charges will be brought against this company.

    Did you see this story?? What do you think about the fact that this practice is continuing as we speak??

  • ANIMAL SHELTER MEDIA NEWS: Did your TV Station report Shelter News Recently?

    Just caught a quick story on CNN, highlighting the Chihuahua and Chi-mixes that are swamping the Humane Societies, Animal Shelters and Rescues in California. And, all over the Nation. They are hoping the media coverage will attempt to educate the masses and put an end to the Designer Dog Syndrome that has swept our nation. There are thousands of these young and older dogs up for "procurement".

    Will you please describe the media coverage you have seen this year on the crisis we are experiencing, so hopefully it will deter some members from breeding, or "procuring" from BYB's?

    Also, how about we contact our local media and ask for this type story to be run more often?

    Thanks so much, have a great Sunday!

  • PROTECTION TRAINERS: What is your opinion of Junkyard Dogs of the past?

    What is your opinion of how dogs were "conditioned" to be nothing more than killing machines to be let loose in businesses during the night?

    When I was very young, I met a man in a NYC nightclub and he professed to be a "trainer" of protection dogs. I begged him for an apprenticeship. He took me to his kennel in the middle of an industrial area. I was so excited! Upon entering, I witnessed the most vicious, sub-animal dogs that were so violent and poised to kill. My shock and horror only worsened when the "handler" arrived looking like the "Michelin" man in full protective gear, holding what I had never seen before. A horrible metal stick. He went up and down the kennels with huge locks on them and literally tortured the dogs from outside the cage. I was shaking, crying and wondered where he obtained those gorgeous GSD's and Dobe's. I left and cried all the way home. I had called a humane organization and they told me at the time,(30 yrs ago) that that was what the dogs were trained for.....Anyway, I then joined an organization and became a K-9 handler. These dogs were dropped off at various locations at close of business and picked up in the AM. Does this still exist? Your thoughts would be appreciated. Thank You, AW13

  • Y!A Landlords: Did you always rent your property to pet owners, being a pet owner yourselves?

    Just answered a post about a dog needing foster care, as Landlord does not allow pets....An all time error that many renters' make.... When I rented my home, I demanded that my rental agent include in ad:

    "ONLY pet owners apply".. I had just installed a $4000. fence for my Shep, and we relocated. I could not stand the thought of someone trying to find a place to live and not being able to bring the family pets.

    Agent said that wak illegal for me to place that stipulation in the ad.......Funny, it is OK to post "NO PETS"....

    Tell us if you allow pets, and what are your requirements for that sort of renta......Thanks,,,AW13

  • FUN Q! What is the funniest dog trick you have taught your dog?

    Tricks are so easy to teach and fun for us to watch. The cutest trick I taught my first Yorkie Jami, was to lay on back, cover his eyes with his paws when I gave the command "Peek-a-boo".. next command: "Say Prayers"...he would then clap front paws together. Last command: "Exercise".....he would then kick legs in air while still laying on his back. Adorable! Twirling, walking on rear legs, hopping, all for our enjoyment!

    One dog, one example, of my many "talented" K-9's

    Tell us your favorite dog trick! Thank you, I am trying not to preach today,,,,,Angel Wolf 13
