Winter is here! With this being said please make sure your pet has a safe and warm place to be kept out of the harsh weather, and plenty of food and water to keep them healthy.
If you take a dog which is starving and feed him and make him prosperous, that dog will not bite you. This is the primary difference between a dog and a man.
