New Year, New SeaWorld Presentation, New Rescue Story
Recently, SeaWorld has been offering some brand new experiences where guests can learn more about the animals who live in the parks from the lenses of those who care for them year-round. For example, animal encounters let you meet penguins, walruses, belugas, and dolphins. Meanwhile, up-close tours allow guests to take part in mini-meetings, which are private training sessions with killer whales.

My pet
INTRODUCTION As much as I love my pet, I also understand the responsibility that comes with owning one. From the moment I brought them home from the shelter, I knew that I had to provide them with the best care and attention they would ever need. I have to make sure they are fed, taken out to exercise and given plenty of love and attention. My pet has become such an integral part of my life that I can't imagine my days without them.

Far From Home (For Now!) Brookfield Zoo Dolphins to live at the Minnesota Zoo
On November 4th, 2022, The Brookfield Zoo announced their seven bottlenose dolphins to the Minnesota Zoo. They were accompanied by a team of veterinarians, animal care specialists, and support staff to help ensure their arrival at their temporary home went smoothly as possible. For five of the animals, the move to Minnesota marks a return to their home since the zoo stopped housing dolphins full-time in 2012. Allie originally came to the zoo in 2008 while Spree was born there in 2002. Brookfield’s other three females, Tapeko, Noelani, and Allison, all spent some time in Minnesota in 2009 during a previous renovation of their habitat. For the two males, Lucky and Kai, this will make the first time they ever lived in Minnesota.

Why should you do a genetic test on your dog?
Genetic tests in humans are already a common reality to find out about preventable genetic diseases or even to find out the ethnic origin of our ancestors. For example, it is already common to analyze the presence of certain mutations in genes to understand the probability of a person to suffer from certain types of cancer. How could it be otherwise, these types of tests are beginning to be available for our fellow dogs and thus be able to give them better health.

Sweet Pups: An Interview
A few months ago, my sister, Janis, decided that she was going to adopt a dog of her own. It was a long process because her apartment’s landlord usually has restrictions that prohibit residents from keeping pets. However, thanks to approval from a doctor, they made an exception for her to adopt a pet. By this point, she decided on who she was going to adopt: a foxy rat terrier puppy named “Angie” who was renamed “Zelda” after a character from the “Legend of Zelda” series of games. Then came the day of adoption and I joined Janis to cross state lines into Massachusetts to take Zelda home.

Two Pounds of Hope - The Little Dog Who Lived
When I think about my favorite memory with my dog, I’m not sure if there is an exact one that I can pinpoint. I had never owned a dog before. At least not since I was an infant and had no memory of it. My mom and step-dad both worked time-consuming jobs that were far from home, so having a dog to grow up with wasn’t an option. I dreamt of it, I wished for it, but I knew that it wasn’t going to happen.

Talking About Cats (Sometimes They Hunt Me, Sometimes The Run From Me)
Introduction I have written a lot about cats, but really I know nothing about them, and as I don’t keep cats I don’t really need to know that much about them. The two things that put me off are my inherent selfishness and the fact that maintaining the health of your pet is so expensive these days with vet and insurance costs, but it is mainly the former that stops me.

Noise Annoys
Introduction This is just a random piece on how noise can become incredibly intrusive in whatever we are doing. For some, this can cause serious issues in their lives; for others, they manage to cope. I manage to cope with it although when someone is playing loud Happy Techno on a bus that does become a little trying to say the least.
