HELPING ,PAWS_ ijjp' Ml Bv Estelle Atwell Pets and " children are a wonderful combination if the children are taught kindness. Parents should understand that animals may bite or scratch in defense against rough han­ dling. and then the blame is the child's. Children who are taught that a dog is a sensitive creature capable of much suffering if mistreated, are less likely to incur these defensive reactions on the part of the pet. A fence is weak insurance against loss of a dog if the gate can be opened by children and delivery men Put a padlock on the gate for extra protection. If you lose a pet visit the County Shelter, 11608 Banford road, Woodstock, immediately, and all other nearby animal welfare associations who maintain shelters. Advertise in the "lost and found" columns. You can place such a listing in three McHenry County newspapers by calling the Helping Paws office. Persistent search may turn up your pet after weeks or months, so don't be in haste to get a new pet until you have exhausted all possibilities. Never underestimate the value of a license. It is to a dog what identification papers are to you; and it is not enough just to buy a license - be sure it is on the dog's collar at all times. In addition it is advisable to get a tag that shows your name, address and phone number and attach this to the collar too. These tags are sold at a modest price. And a modest price is all it costs to join Helping Paws' animal registry, an excellent form of insurance for finding your pet if it's lost.
