Westcrest off-leash dog park make over

Westcrest Off-leash dog park

What good is an off-leash dog park if you can’t get to it?  West Seattle dog owners were worried that people with disabilities couldn’t enjoy the Westcrest Dog Park.  So volunteers got together this week and made improvements – so everyone could come out.

surfing dog competition

This year fifty canine contestants put their best paw forward at the fourth annual Loews Coronado Bay Resort surf-dog competition. The event is judged based on three criteria: confidence level (as demonstrated by barking, tail wagging, or general display of self-assurance), the length of the ride, and the overall ability to “rip it and grip it.”

First-ever ALL pet airline

On Tuesday, the first flight for Pet Airways, the first-ever all-pet airline, took off from Farmingdale, N.Y. Dogs and cats will fly in the main cabin, retooled and lined with carriers in place of seats. Pets (about 50 on each flight) will be escorted to the plane by attendants that will check on the animals every 15 minutes during flight. Pet Airways will fly a pet between five major cities—New York, Washington, Chicago, Denver, and Los Angeles. The $250 one-way fare is comparable to pet fees at the largest U.S. airlines. http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=D99ECQSG0&show_article=1
