An important part of being a good dog owner is being able to read how our dog responds to us or to a certain situation. We can communicate with our dogs by observing their body language, looking out for stress signals that tell us if our dog is still enjoying itself, merely tolerating what’s happening, or has had enough.
How do we read our dog's body language?

Adoption Spotlight: Princess.
This 2-year-old girl is all sorts of wonderful. We found her limping around Choa Chu Kang with a bad maggot wound in her right hind leg. Her leg bone was exposed and the injury was extensive. We sent her for surgery and unfortunately, the vets had to remove her right hind leg. This strong girl recovered well. She's playful, active, adorable and simply lovely. Having three legs won't stop her and she has plenty of love to give to a good family who will give her a gr...

Guinea pigs are social creatures and do better with a companion. However, they also breed fast and should be kept in same-gender pairs to avoid unwanted litters. Instead of heading for the pet shops, Samantha came to our shelter to look for a companion for her existing guinea pig. She found Pipi, and the rest is history. Read Pipi's adoption story here - http://www.spca.org.sg/services_adoption_happyendi ng.asp
Thank you Samantha for adopting and saving lives! And for being a responsible pet ow...

Darling Miki is a 6-year-old Shetland Sheepdog who didn't get such a great start in life. Her previous family didn't keep their promise of forever, but she's definitely ready to meet a good family who will! She may no longer be a puppy, but she has plenty of energy and love left in her. This pretty girl is slightly shy and needs time to get to know you. Give her the opportunity to do so and she'll make a great companion! Are you ready to take her in and give her a fami...

These two lovely 1.5-year-old boys hang out together in our shelter and enjoy each other's company. It is best for them to go to the same family. Guinea pigs are social creatures that do better with company, but should be kept in same-gender pairs to avoid breeding and unwanted litters. Are you ready to take good care of them for the next 7 years?

These two babies came to us just last week, found without their mother around the busy Orchard area. Fortunately for us, our great fosterers stepped up to the challenge and we quickly found a loving foster home for these lovely kittens. They'll need plenty of care and will test our fosterer's patience for the next month or so! But it'll all be worth it when they eventually find good, forever homes.
