Rescue Notes
Many people have been asking what they can do to help breed
rescue. Here are one hundred questions for those who want
to help.

email excerpt worth noting as you explore this
section:
>>> ... and remember that placebos
and advertising has NO EFFECT on animals. That is what so opened our
minds. If "it" helps an animal and there are visible results,
relaxation, cessation of lameness, improved energy, appetite, muscle
tone, coat condition, attitude, etc. then whatever it is WORKS."
Pets For YOUR Health: Every person who does not have a pet but who
values their own health and longevity should know there is a
mountain of evidence and clinical trials that show an immediate drop in blood
pressure, heart rate and other critical body functions just when
stroking a pet. Long term
studies have shown those who keep and care for pets experience
prolonged life and better overall physical and mental health than those
who do not! It seems directly related however to pets that can be
held and stroked. Fish are great but the tactile benefits of
stroking a pet are scientifically measurable.
