There are so many great web sites devoted to all creatures great and small!
Keeping up with them could be a full-time job, so we've only included a few that we feel are extremely comprehensive and/or unique. We'd be more than happy to consider any
recommendations for inclusion, however. (Please note: Web sites that have distracting extraneous ads, pop-ups, etc. are unacceptable. Sorry.)

This beautiful photo tribute is in honor and recognition of the bravery and heroic efforts of over 250 canine search and rescue dogs who worked around the clock at the World Trade Center and the Pentagon after the September 11th terrorist attacks. These heroes worked without the benefit of gas masks and protective clothing, venturing into places humans could not go.
