Kids Care For Pets Left Behind By Deployed Troops - Cincinnati News Story - WLWT Cincinnati

Some local students are helping troops stationed overseas by caring for their pets.
The program started when first grade teacher Stacie Kegley, of Stephens Elementary School in Boone County, introduced a lesson on making a difference.
"We talked about how large groups of people make a difference in the world every day, but that each of us can make a difference," Kegley said.
The students help care for dogs left behind at Sundance Pet Resort by deployed troops.
"Even if you're a first-grader, you can make a difference," said Deanna Scott, who owns Sundance Pet Resort.
That's what student Austin Duncin learned through his work with the dogs.
"We go like anywhere and buy food treats, toys and a whole bunch of other stuff," the first-grader said.

'Giant George' the Great Dane is Newly Crowned World's Tallest Dog

Great post on Paw Nation!

The world has a new tallest dog! At four years old, George the Great Dane stands 43 inches high from paw to shoulder, which is the method Guinness World Records uses to determine a dog's official height. The announcement settles a hotly-contested debate that had been brewing since last November when Guinness proclaimed Titan, a Great Dane from San Diego, Calif. who measures 42.25 inches high at the shoulders, the World's Tallest Dog. George's owner, David Nasser of Tucson, Ariz., claimed that his Great Dane was taller, but there were conflicting reports about the dog's actual height. To settle the controversy, Guinness sent a representative to preside over an in-person measurement. The outcome? George had edged out Titan by three-quarters of an inch. (Prior to Titan and George, the previous holder of the World's Tallest Dog title was Gibson, a Great Dane who passed away in 2009.) At 43 inches tall, "Giant George," as Nasser likes to call him, is the tallest dog ever recorded by Guinness World Records. He's already appeared on The Oprah Winfrey Show and has over 21,000 fans from all over the world on his Facebook page. "It's been amazing," says Nasser. "Fans have written in from the United Kingdom, Germany, Korea and South America."The sable-colored Great Dane weighs a whopping 245 pounds and measures seven feet and three inches from the tip of his nose to the end of his tail -- though he doesn't raise up on his hind legs, he's too big for that. "When George is standing on all fours and lifts his head, the tip of his snout measures 55 inches, or more, off the ground," Nasser tells Paw Nation. "You have to be careful. Nothing is off-limits to him."As a puppy, George had huge paws and already weighed 17 pounds at seven weeks of age. "He looked like a thick fur ball. He was so pudgy and cute," says Nasser. George quickly outgrew his crate. He used to sleep in a king-sized bed with Nasser and his wife, until the arrival of the couple's infant daughter. The massive dog now sleeps on a queen-sized mattress at the foot of the couple's bed."We had no idea he would get this big," says Nasser. "He weighs 100 pounds more than the regular Great Dane." Not surprisingly, George has a fondness for food. "The first thing he does when he wakes up is eat; it's the first thing on his mind," says Nasser. "Then he goes outside to use the bathroom." George goes through 110 pounds of dry dog food each month, but "that's actually not that much," says Nasser. Like many of us, George is forced to watch his weight. "He used to eat a lot more, but he's on a diet right now because he's getting a little heavy," says Nasser. "At 245 pounds, it would be better if we could take about 10 pounds off him."
For most of the day, George naps and keeps an eye on the house. "He's a good watchdog," says Nasser. But come evening, George gets a burst of energy and needs to be walked or taken to the dog park.

DOGGY DAYCCAMP VALENTINES PARTY

Come pawty with us on Feb.12, 2010 at Best Friends Petcare doggie daycamp.

Hello my name is Dennis. I am the caretaker of Best Friends Petcare here in Cincinnati,OH. My humans think all I do is lay around and sleep all day but in reality they don't see what I get into.....Playing with all the cat toys in retail, stalking the frog in the lobby aquarium, rearranging the cat retail, copying myself on the copier where it is warm!
