Many people ask what plants are NOT good for pets. Here is a short list of a few common plants that you may have at home. Notice the Oleander (specially in the Oleander area), very common here in Bakersfield. It is very toxic to pets if they chew on them. Alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.)...

The weekend’s just around the corner, and with it comes the Bakersfield SPCA cat neuter clinic, taking place on Sunday, July 29. Now, if your little buddy doesn’t already have an appointment then he’s most likely out of luck for this round, because those spots are gone...

I'm a sweet little female terrier mix.  I was found in heavy traffic Saturday,  07/07/07, on Rosedale Hwy, just east of Jenkins Road.  Lucky for me, this nice lady opened the door to her truck and I jumped in.  I've been staying with her family since. ...

A fabulous dog was found recently at South High. He looks to be part Australian Cattle Dog, and has red and white markings. He is a little guy, not too big, and less than one year old. He is very loving, and pretty well behaved, for a puppy of his age and stature. I would love to keep him...

This might sound a little fishy, but the rumors are true.  I have met Sir Paul McCartney and I have met John Lennon.  Since meeting them, they inspire me even more.  In fact, I'd recommend that everybody keep a couple of pet fish in an aquarium in their office, and that they...

No news on Ace unfortunately... but there have been some interesting turn of events I thought I would share with you all.    Last week there was a for sale ad for a greyhound in the paper. I thought it strange and decided to check it out on the very slim chance someone was trying...

       Our family dog went missing on 5-20-07 "Rocko". Since then our family has not been the same. My kids and my husband are so sad. Please help us find our missing pet.        We live on Baker st.  in Bakersfield near...

Daniel Greus of Bakersfield has raised an issue of longstanding debate: At what point should veterinarians be expected to donate their services -- or at least loan their services -- to give animals a peaceful death. Greus, writing about his own personal experience this...

We're getting warmer....but so is the weather!! Ace was seen last week in the Madison Grove neighborhood off Calloway and across from Norris Middle School. Then YESTERDAY he was seen in the Gardens neighborhood directly behind the school. He was even in someone's back yard,...

Finally, someone saw the sign! After weeks filled with everything BUT a sighting of my boy, I received a very promising lead this morning on Ace's whereabouts. Two weeks ago a woman in north bakersfield saw two kids being pulled on their roller blades by a greyhound in the Madison Grove tract...

I am an animal lover looking for a dog as a family pet and companion for the wife, kids, and myself.  We are a very loving and caring family that is willing to welcome a dog into our lifes.  We are looking for a small to medium size dog or puppy that will become a part of our...

For those of you who read the story of my parents' little Maltese, Zhatu, and his exorbitantly-priced hip surgery, I am happy to report that he has come through the surgery with flying fur...uh, colors...and he is doing very well. While the vet bill nearly caused our family to have heart-attacks...

It's been seven days exactly and the search for Ace continues. When a neighbor's windchime sounds my ears still prick thinking it might be his tags jingling. Everytime I open the door I I anticipate his wagging tail whipping anything in reach as he excitedly welcomes me home....only to be greeted...

With his docile doggie disposition and willingness to come up and accept petting from any person, this "Ace" is definitely not wild. In fact he is the calmest, most friendly animal I have ever met, which is why my past  few days have gone to the dog. Saturday night, after I...

I see it everyday and it breaks my heart. When you are traveling with your pets, do NOT put them in your lap. Pets are an extension of your family and you love them like a family member (as they should be). Would you drive with your child in your lap? No, of course not. Children have car...

My parents have a Maltese that I swear they bought to replace my brothers and me when we left the house. They paid $600 for him when he was six weeks old. They were recently informed that their "baby" needs major surgery on both rear legs. The "specialist" vet quoted them a...

2 Pictures of Ginger The Wonder Dog Two women came to our door around 3:15 PM. The more elderly one said my next door neighbor usually picks her up at 8:00 AM every day. That morning she did not arrive or call. The two of...

Ok, here we are with some fun stuff. I am guilty of trying to dress my dogs in sweaters and even put an pumpkin costume on my dog, Peanut, last year for Halloween. I wanted him to wear it so bad but he was so mad at me and refused to move even hiding his face. Show us your pet in their costume...

Yes, we do get good news..not often by most standards..but this one I have been following. There was a bill recently passed by both houses entitled the "PETS Act". This bill mandates pets to be transported and housed with the owners if a State of Emergency has been issued. The horror...

I ask you what's wrong with the picture? Sheesh, its bad enough young jetsetters are lugging around hairless rat-dogs with pierced ears and little bows but this takes the insanity to new levels.The short news story gives no motive for this crime only that the owner has worn pink every day for 5...
