Tracking a Subtle Scent, a Dog May Help Save the Whales

http://www.nytimes.com/2012/09/02/us/sniffing-out-a-subtle-scent-to-help-save-some-whales.html

A dog named Tucker with a thumping tail and a mysterious past as a stray on the streets of Seattle has become an unexpected star in the realm of canine-assisted science. He is the world’s only working dog, marine biologists say, able to find and track the scent of orca scat, or feces, in open ocean water — up to a mile away, in the smallest of specks.

dog in NYC needs home

"I found a very thin pitbull tied up and abandoned on thirteenth st. He had been there for three hrs and was throwing up everywhere and extremely dehydrated. I took him last night to the vet and he should be better by tommorow morning. The problem is come Monday I have no where to take him. Not a single shelter will take him and I have a dog who is very territorial. I was wondering if you had any friends here that would foster or who had some ideas."

Here are 10 foods you should not give your dog on Thanksgiving, or any other day for that matter.
