Mosi & Daisy: kindred spirits

For weeks, there have been all kinds of reports on the terrible death of Rudolph Mooshammer, the 64 year old fashion tsar (as the Germans called him), and of course, the reports included regular news on little Daisy. Rudolph Mooshammer had a lot of passions: high-grade Rolls Royce Limousines, stylish fashion clothes, and a resplendent life in the Jet Set. But his biggest passion had for legs and was priceless for him – the Yorkshire Terrier bitch Daisy.

No respect for animals!

Not too long ago, the deadly accident of little Volkan, caused by a young dogowner who had a previous conviction for bodily harm, produced a wave of fear of dogs on people. So they close their eyes when youngsters and children are torturing animals brutally – they call it "cool". All the cases that have been discussed in public have their cause: the family situation and the cold-hearted society in which we're living...

Envy of other animal's food: a report based on Ricky's experiences
