Links for coupons and free dog-food samples (some require a small shipping fee), as well as lots of other pet-related items and services - we're not promoting any particular brand (after much experimentation through the years, we prefer and use Purina Puppy and Dog Chows), but you may check these out:

First, forget the FreeCell and Solitaire! This one will have you rolling around on the floor with laughter - much better exercise than pushing cards around with your mouse! Be sure to feed the 2-headed dog and check out the whole site - it's tons of fun.
 Not quite on the "dog" theme, but a couple of really good links in times such as we are experiencing today:

  www.eStudySource.com and www.eAudioSource.com . Another is www.e-Sword.net .

There are some great stories and poems on the Internet that suggest one reason our canine friends are so full of unconditional love, is because GOD turned HIS name around and called these faithful creatures DOG, to remind us of how He loves us. When the whole world is crumbling around us, as it is now, and we begin to wonder about the reality of God and whether He truly does care about us and our suffering, we can take assurance not only from our precious pets, but also from the promises He has given us in His precious Word. Take courage from it, friend!
Veterinary information YOU CAN AND SHOULD USE AT HOME!!! http://www.theonlinevet.com/
This is material, diets and methods that may save your dog or cat's life, perhaps save you MANY trips to the vet, and WILL save you a TON of money! Dr. Jones is a Canadian vet who practices and promotes alternative medicine.

Also check out www.petplace.com for MORE veterinary information YOU can use!
A treat for you, a cute and very meaningful YouTube video:

More veterinary information can be found at www.healthypet.com, in language we can ALL understand. Their FAQ list is really helpful in a very basic-overview format - I just found out from it that my dog probably died of hypertrophic heart failure instead of pneumonia, as I had thought - he experienced all the listed symptoms except fainting spells.
