Dog Domains
Posted on June 12, 2006 in Domains | Comments (0)
I am a noted dog lover. I currently have 4 dogs; two Tibetan Mastiffs which are large working dogs native to the Tibetan plateau. They are noted for their size and power (males typically range 125~160 lbs). They are very suspicious of strangers, protective of their families and surprising emotionally sensitive to disagreements. They are not dogs for everyone. In fact the breed which is a rare breed simply isn't for everyone. I also have a Charpei Lab mix named Devo. Devo is a rescue from the Pasadena Humane Society and a Chow Chow Austrialian Shepherd mix also a rescue from the Pasadena Humane Society. Sasha, the Chow Chow/Austrialian Shepherd mix is a great dog, highly intelligent (from the Australian Shepherd side no doubt).
I love my dogs so much that one time I was feeding the dogs a natural diet, that I cooked myslf. Given that my dogs range in size from 65lbs to 140lbs this was an incredibly time consuming task. I used formulas from several books such as Home-Prepared Dog & Cat Diets: the Healthful Alternative and while my dogs thrived on them I simply couldn't prepare enough food consistently enough. I admit it - I ran out of time. So instead theTM group I am a member of noted that Innova had come out with a new brand of super premium call Evolutionary Diet. It's an excellent super premium food. Please note when I say super premium I mean it. A 28 lb bag of Evolutionary diet will run you at least $43. However I can testify that short of the home cooked diets it's the best dog food you can buy.
So my love of dogs lead me to an idea to build a series of sites devoted to a specific breeds and so I embarked on a dog related domain buying spree.
Most of these are still under development but they are great resources even now. Dog College is an active dog training blog with new content on a weekly basis.
