More information coming soon!

We are still in the process of organizing and bringing together all of the members with their vast experience in veterinary medicine, rescue operations, dog training, advocacy and legislative efforts.

Partly because of the efforts of HELP FIDO, the proposed legislation to ban all pit bulls in the City of Whitehall, OH (based on their breed, not their actions) was defeated on June 3, 2008.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 HELP  FIDO stands for:

Humane Education Leads to Progress

 For Informed Dog Owners

 

 

Vision Statement:

We envision a society free from discrimination, where responsibility, education, love and compassion allow humans to fully respect and understand man's best friend.

 

 

 


Ask the Doctor

Q:  Dear Dr. M, I will be going on vacation and will have t o board my dog.  Do you have any helpful advice?

 ~Worried mom~

 

A: Dear Worried mom,  When boarding your dog or leaving him with a pet sitter make sure you leave detailed instructions especially if your dog needs special care like taking daily medication.

 

Make sure your dog is up to date on all vaccinations.

Lastly, and this is the most important tip I can give as a veterinarian, leave a signed letter with your boarding facility or sitter specifically giving them the power to make medical decisions for your dog in case an emergency arises and you cannot be reached.
