Pets
Interacting with our pets is one of the most enjoyable things we do.
What a difference they make in our lives whether we are children or senior citizens, couch potatoes or exercise enthusiasts, we can share much of our daily lives with our pets.
Children and dogs are a natural, but because of a child's small size and unpredictable behaviour there are several things every pet owner or parent should know about children and dogs.
By the time children are seven or older some of them are ready to start to develop a rewarding relationship with a dog.
If you want to see true happiness just look at the face of an 8-year-old when he/she holds their new lab puppy in their arms for the first time.
Dogs can help teach a child responsibility, patience, empathy, and compassion, but remember, no young child is capable of properly training or completely caring for a dog, so the parent must always ultimately take full responsibility for the pet.
There is no greater relationship than that between a child and their dog.
There is no greater relationship than that between a child and their dog.
Follow some good common sense precautions and choose the right dog at the right time for your child. A child and a dog both require a huge investment of your time. If you devote the time to both, your rewards will be far greater than anything money could ever buy.

War
Summer is threatened in many parts of our Planet.
War destroys everything, from human lives, to animals and habitats.
The war Israel versus Lebanon has already killed more than three hundred people and more than half a million are now homeless.
Thirteen Portuguese are arriving today in aeroporto Figo Maduro, they too are war refugees.
According to some members of the Hizbollah there is no intention to stop it until " the price is high enough..."
What's necessary to pay, so that they try to make Peace?...

Heat...
Today it's incredibly hot.
Temperatures are alarmingly high.
Some, may argue that's Summer, however, we all know that this is not normal.
Even in Portugal, we expect sunny, warm days, not burning temperatures.
This is a clear sign that he Global Warming of the Planet Earth is a reality.
When we hear scientists alerting authorities to its dangers, we tend to think that's only going to happen in science fiction films. Not at all this is real...
Let's all, governments in particular, try to act to save the planet while it's still possible to do something.
Urgent and serious legislation is necessary to enforce the rules.
Save the Planet...now!!!
