<br />
First, there is Antonio. He will have his 8th birthday July 24, 2010.<br />
Then, there is Gucci. He is a love ball.<br />
And last, there is Noah, a bolognese. He is very loveable.<br />
All three dogs were shaved down in December, but their coats are growing back. THey will be neutered, have teeth cleaned and a medical checkup.<br />
As I said before, their breeder can no longer take care of them.<br />
<br />
Thank you.<br />

I am very shy. Have had my summer cut so look like a lion... especial my tail. I am 6 years 2 months old... but look like a puppy. I don't have my collar on because I'd been to visit my 96 year old great grandfather and had on my harness. What a Mistake! When we got home from our trip my human family had been robbed. They took our money and all of my mother's fine jewelry. They left the costume jewelry. Our house is a mess. Our whole family was upset... Mom throwing up and Dad mad. My two year old human was acting crazy cause she didn't know why everyone was so upset and our baby wanted fed. I was scared and confused. The next morning mom and dad left the doors open while they went thru things and put things away... I went out. But alas the side gate was open and they didn't know it. I've never been out on my own ... without my family. Now I am lost with no name and no tags. I do have a harness. I am scared and shy. My humans think I was picked up right in or near my yard as I'd never run before. They are crazy with grief. If you see me ... please call the hot line or Companion Animal Recovery. 1 800-252- 7894. I am micro chipped! My number is 45504D6442. and an alert has been put out for me in our area. I live in Southern Oregon, the Rogue Valley. Someone Please call my family to come get me!!!<br />
<br />
This will be night two of the missing Coton search. we have made flyers... put posters up at the pet stores ..the schools and been in touch with the local animal shelters. Please remind our coton lovers and friends ... Never take off the identification tags!!! My kids are devastated and self blaming. <br />
<br />
Sincerely,<br />

This is wonderful news since this is a serious fatal disease. Fortunately it is not common in Cotons and now that we have a DNA test, we could conceivably eliminate it from the breed entirely.<br />

The ACC's mission is to protect the Coton de Tulear by educating the public on ethical breeding and exposing abuse and exploitation. <br />
Keep in mind as you're viewing this program that the Coton is a "rare breed". If they do not remain a "rare breed" and become recognized by the AKC you WILL see many many more Cotons living under the brutal conditions of puppy mills because more and more people will profit from their breeding the Coton.<br />
Please help us keep the Coton de Tulear safe from puppy mills, Petland and pet stores.<br />

They have located the DNA marker in Coton for Banderas Syndrome. More information will be coming soon. Please read below:<br />
<br />
It has taken a while, but if you keep walking you get there eventually. We have found the mutation responsible for Bandera’s syndrome in Coton de Tulears. It is quite an interesting gene that explains a lot about why we see the signs we do in the Bandera’s pups. We will be offering a DNA test for the mutation shortly so breeders can identify carriers of the trait and avoid any Bandera’s pups in the future. My colleague, Dr. Gary Johnson, is the one who does the real work on these studies and he will be getting in contact with you to let you know the details about testing. <br />

Natura makes these following dog foods:<br />
Innova<br />
Healthwise<br />
Evo<br />
California Naturals<br />
Karma<br />
Mother Nature<br />
Watch very closely for the ingredients to change and if it does, please do not buy and feed to your beloved dogs.<br />

<br />
The bill has gone to the Agriculture Committee, concerned pet owners should call the Committee Secretary (Mona Wood) at 916-319-2084 and/or contact the Committee members at the phone numbers or e-mail addresses below and leave a message for the Committee that you want them to recommend passage of this bill. Feline owners should request that cats be included as well.<br />

Subject: Thank you from The HSUS puppy mills campaign<br />
<br />
Dear Mr Hiskes,<br />
<br />
I am writing to thank you for posting the update about the Petland lawsuit on your Blog last week, and especially to thank you for your support of our efforts to combat puppy mills and also for being a humane breeder!<br />
<br />
The HSUS wholeheartedly supports responsible dog breeders, we publish several guides for the public to help them find and identify a good dog breeder, including our Puppy Buyer’s Guide and our Good Breeder Checklist. These are available for free on our website or by mail. You can see the Puppy Buyer’s Guide at <a href="http://www.humanesociety.org/issues/puppy_mills/tips/finding_good_dog_breeder.html%20and%20download%20our%20Good%20Breeder%20Checklist%20at%20http://www.humanesociety.org/assets/pdfs/pets/puppy_mills/how_find_good_dog_breeder.pdf">http://www.humanesociety.org/issues/puppy_mills/tips/finding_good_dog_breeder.html%20and%20download%20our%20Good%20Breeder%20Checklist%20at%20http://www.humanesociety.org/assets/pdfs/pets/puppy_mills/how_find_good_dog_breeder.pdf</a><br />
The more good breeders that start coming forward to say “I am against puppy mills,” and say it loudly and proudly, we have an even greater chance at helping the animals in the facilities providing substandard care!<br />
<br />
If you would like to know more about our work with breeders, please do not hesitate to contact me. We would be delighted to stay in touch with you!<br />
<br />
Sincerely,<br />
<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Before you consider the purchase of a "Coton" puppy for $600, $800, $1200, or even $1800 or more from a pet store, commercial kennel, a large scale breeder, or a broker who offers you a puppy "imported from Eastern Europe with championship bloodlines", read the following very important messages from <a href="http://www.prisonersofgreed.org/">http://www.prisonersofgreed.org/</a> and<a href="http://www.stoppuppymills.org/"> http://www.stoppuppymills.org/</a><br />
</div>For further links and information visit the UCARE (United Coton de Tulear Association for Rescue and Education) web site at <a href="http://www.cotonrescue.us/">http://www.cotonrescue.us/</a>and talk to the people who see firsthand the condition and care of Cotons and other breeds in the puppymills. These puppymills, also called "large volume breeders", are the source of pet store dogs. The dogs are shipped across the country in large trucks stacked to the ceiling with crates containing puppies. Sometimes these puppies are torn away from their mothers before they are weaned. The puppies that survive are cleaned up to make them presentable in the pet stores.<br />
You can make a difference! The puppymills feed the pet stores. No reputable breeder ever places puppies in a pet store to be sold to someone they haven't carefully interviewed. If the pet stores in your home town sell puppies, kittens and other live animals, don't shop at that pet store and let the owner know why. Write to your local newspaper, find other concerned people through your local humane society, picket the pet store and find other ways to let them know their business will improve if they stop selling puppies. Join the growing number of pet lovers throughout the U.S. Counties like Santa Cruz and Santa Clara in California have convinced pet stores, including chains like Pet Smart, that it is not smart to sell puppies. If the pet stores stop selling puppies, the puppymillers will go out of business. Pet stores are their major outlet.American Coton de Tulear Clubhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03983529784208052842noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8574173711423695613.post-57646675624357308922010-01-19T12:38:00.001-07:002010-01-19T12:39:32.172-07:00No AKC for Renaissance Coton de Tulear<div align="left" class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEguuhqlXpswBhoO_uHCPTmJExiw_OwIVrsTOO5sVXs_2q_ZEPP5MJsdH_NPTEzrCFy-PaJerid6wZMBb7FeWhPIisKA_XK6kLVgHFu6EdZuKYOnkdZPFIPBSz5uQWvnbvs4T6UfG9Yl-qZ1/s1600-h/blog-header-2-Image2-1.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" ps="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEguuhqlXpswBhoO_uHCPTmJExiw_OwIVrsTOO5sVXs_2q_ZEPP5MJsdH_NPTEzrCFy-PaJerid6wZMBb7FeWhPIisKA_XK6kLVgHFu6EdZuKYOnkdZPFIPBSz5uQWvnbvs4T6UfG9Yl-qZ1/s320/blog-header-2-Image2-1.png" /></a><br />
