Dog Ownership Responsibility
As a part of supporting "Responsible Dog Owners Month" in September 2006, we are providing educational materials to help the Pet Community become more informed. Owning a dog is a responsibility, not just a privilege. Their care entails more than just food & shelter - they deserve our love and good hygiene.
If you are a dog breeder, we provide a means for you to advertise on our site, be listed in our Dog Breeders Directory and we even direct you to Internet marketing tools to expand and grow your online business and website.Today's Tip from Breeders USA - The Dog Breeders Directory
Commitment to Pet Care

- Only use flea & tick shampoos when necessary. It drys out their skin.
- Rinse out all shampoo to protect against skin problems.

- Place cotton in ears before bathing to lessen chance of ear infections.
