WE START FROM THE BELIEF THAT OUR CITIES' DOGS MAKE VALUABLE SOCIAL CONTRIBUTIONS. In this photograph, a therapy dog in New York comforts a child in the wake of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. Our lives are safer, richer, and happier because of dogs, including: SEARCH AND RESCUE DOGS, BOMB AND MINE-DETECTING DOGS, POLICE AND MILITARY DOGS, GUIDE DOGS FOR THE BLIND, ARSON INVESTIGATION DOGS, (Even environmentalist SNAKE-DETECTING DOGS -- preventing the spread of bird-eating Brown Tree Snakes from the island of Guam) AND EVERYBODY'S BEST FRIEND -- THE ORDINARY HEROIC FAMILY PET. They all need and deserve generous recreational and play space. ********************************* Please send your photos, stories, and facts about the many ways dogs benefit society and cities so we can document and publicize their contributions. ********************************* Click here to send an email message to CITYDOGS@HOTMAIL.COM |
