An important part of being a good dog owner is being able to read how our dog responds to us or to a certain situation. We can communicate with our dogs by observing their body language, looking out for stress signals that tell us if our dog is still enjoying itself, merely tolerating what’s happening, or has had enough.
How do we read our dog's body language?
Here's the second installment of our dog stress alert tips, crafted by Kang Nee (a certified professional dog trainer who works with ...

Adoption Spotlight: Major.
This 9-year-old big boy didn't get the life he deserved and was abandoned at Lim Chu Kang with a maggot wound on his back. He's now eagerly waiting for a good family to spend the rest of his days with! Major is much bigger than this picture gives him credit for, and he will do well with confident, experienced dog owners. Part German Shepherd, Major comes under AVA's Part II Scheduled Dogs. Owners of Part II Scheduled Dogs have to attend mandatory training with their d...

Adoption Spotlight: Leo.
This 2-year-old girl has lovely markings that make her very unique indeed! Curious like most cats, Leo got herself stuck in a tree for 3 days before she was finally rescued by our Junior Inspectors. Can you give her a home where she can explore safely indoors? Come meet her soon and maybe welcome her home if you're ready for the lifetime commitment!
Also, show some love to the other equally adorable and lovable animals waiting in our shelter for their forever homes. Vi...

These fast yet gentle creatures live most happily in quiet environments. Unfortunately for the Greyhound, its agility makes it a popular choice for sports entertainment.
A widespread annual hunting tradition in Spain subjects 60,000 Greyhounds to a very unfortunate fate. Find out more about the atrocities behind Greyhound hunting in Spain, then sign and share the petition to help stop the abuse of these gentle dogs (http://www.spcai.org/greyhounds-tortured-in-spain .html).

Adoption Spotlight: Mario.
Mario is a handsome boy who has plenty of energy and loves to play! Like all bulldogs (and other dogs with short noses), he has a very small nasal cavity and thus will have greater difficulty keeping his body cool. Bulldogs are very sensitive to heat and extra caution needs to be taken to ensure that they have an adequate supply of water and are kept out of standing heat, especially with Singapore's weather. Are you ready for the lifetime commitment?
