Professor Kin-Chow Chang the senior author of the University of Nottingham report said in a press release,

“Shoppers maybe be surprise to find out that prominently described contents such as beef on a tin could, within the guidelines, be a minor ingredient, have no bovine skeletal muscle meat and contain a majority of unidentified animal proteins.”

He also said that there should be "Full disclosure of animal contents will allow more informed choices to be made on purchases which are particularly important for pets with food allergies, reduce the risk of product misinterpretation by shoppers, and avoid potential religious concerns.”

Smiley is a golden retriever in Canada who was born without eyes and with dwarfism. Smiley was rescued from a puppy mill when he was two years old. He was trained as a therapy dog, which he is doing for 10 years.

"People were so drawn to him, so inspired by him. I realized this dog has to be a therapy dog. I have to share him." his owner Joanne George said on CBS News. "Dogs can come back from anything, they forget their past. We as humans, dwell on the pas."

Smiley is a certified therapy dog, he is with the St. John Ambulance Therapy Dog program which visits and give joy to patients at retirement and nursing homes. He also joins special needs children at a library reading program.

There was one instance when Smiley visited a nursing home and one of the patient who don't speak nor communicate started to smile and make some noise when the dog put his feet up in front of him. All of the nurses rushed into the room and said they've never seen him smile nor gave any kind of reaction.

At only 18-months-old, Hulk is huge at 175 pounds. He looks really intimidating specially with his massive head and huge jaw. If he bite your arms, it'll be like chicken bones. Hulk is owned by Marlon Grannan and his wife Lisa Grannan, according to them he is a gentle and sweet family dog and their  3-year-old son Jordan's best friend.

Grannan wants to change the bad reputation of Pit Bulls in the media, he said "Because Pit Bulls are only in the media when bad things happen, this myth of them as monsters gets perpetuated. "But it's not true. They might not be for everyone, but under a good leader and with proper training, they make amazing family and work or protection dogs."

They owned Dark Dynasty K9s, a kennel that breeds and trains American Pit Bull Terriers as protection dogs for clients worldwide.


What I don't understand is why do they have to cut his ears? I see a lot of Pit Bulls with cut ears? Why do they do that?
