BEST Small Dog for Families

Best Little Dog

TOY Fox Terriers have been a Recognized breed by the United Kennel Club since 1936. They are a true American Breed. Their temperment is wonderful, with needing only 15 minutes of exercize twice a day and being a "Lap dog" the rest of the day. They get along wonderfully with everyone, everything to the fault of trying to make freinds with unfreindly animals thus needing constant supervision during excursions outside the house so they don't run up to a skunk or worse, a visious dog that would make lunch out of them. They love babies and children, but Children need supervision around them in such a way as the child can easily fall on the dog and break legs or worse. I have also never seen one that didn't love cats, thus the need to protect them from a stray that might take out an eye.
They were bred to hunt mice/rats in the barn thus they are Fast little runners. I've known the horrible misshap of a friend that ran over and killed a TFT because his owners "never stopped him from chasing CARS"! Yes, at 4 months old my little one took off after the mail truck 1/2 a block away comming in our direction. Luckily for me she listened when I (in a panic)screemed at her to stop. She was never let out the front door again and now knows not to go far from the door when I'm outside with her.

POISONOUS PEOPLE FOOD
A list of the most dangerous people food NOT to feed your pet. SO YOU KNOW WHAT'S IN THOSE COOKIES??? Don't let your kids give your pets any food unless YOU have inspected it. Make sure the kids ASK before giving anything to your pet to eat. A hidden raisin in a cookie might make an older pet very sick or even cause death if it's kidneys are not working well because of age. Think those luscious Grapes are good for the dog too? NO NO NO. They are poisonous to a dog. They WILL poison the kidneys and possibly cause death. What's worse, Vets don't know what it is in a grape that does it. Keep tabs on what is okay and what is not, to keep your four legged family member healthy. REMEMBER, JUST BECAUSE IT'S IN DOG FOOD DOES NOT MEAN IT'S HEALTHY FOR THE DOG.
ANY food that lists any "BY-PRODUCTS" in their food means they are feeding your dog the CRAP that fell on the floor of the butcher plant. By-Products have NO nutritional value, neither does corn OR corn meal. Corn can cause allergies, especially "skin allergies".
MOST POISONOUS PLANTS
Did you know that Pothos that grows even if you have a brown thumb can make you pet sick? I have one growing all over a half wall and the floor. Now I have to watch it and make sure the dogs don't play around it.

You just can't get enough

Once you hold a Toy Fox Terrier puppy it will melt your heart. We were looking for a Chihuahua for my daughter for her birthday. They were far and few between this particular summer back east where we were stationed. Dad was gone doing his duty over seas and we had lost a dog to old age the year before. We found one (at the last desperate place to look - the pet shop) and she was so nervous she wouldn't quit bitting. We didn't bond with her at all. There was a little white dog in the cage next to her so we asked what it was. We were told it was a fox terrier. We had no idea what that was, but he was little so we had the girl bring him (we didn't want a boy dog either, but) to the room. He started out by bitting our shoes (again! another biter!) but no, the second I picked him up he calmed down, LEANED up against me and looked up with these "I belong here" look in them. I was suckered. I put him down, let him run over to my daughter, again he tried to chew on her shoe, but again, the second she picked him up he stopped, leaned against her, looked up at her with those same "I belong here" eyes. That was it. Our first Toy Fox Terrier, 14 years ago and going.

TOP 10 LIES youv'e been told about Dog Food

From THE ANIMAL WELLNESS MAGAZINE

1. Table scraps are bad for him. Fresh cooked food that is limited in seasonings is great. If it's bad for him how can it be good for you?
2. Dry food and treats keep his teeth clean. If you were to eat croutons all the time would it stop you from going to the dentist? I think not.
