The Straight Poop Rescue or Assistance Site of the Week A Word from Frank: Recently I recommended a program here to help protect you from spam, "Spam Arrest". I learned today that the people who operate Spam Arrest are themselves spammers -- if you have Spam Arrest on your system and someone sends you an email, the Spam Arrest people record their email address and approach them to sell them Spam Arrest. In other words, they're acting as though they have your permission to contact your friends and contacts. That's not acceptable to me. I'm cancelling Spam Arrest for myself, and I thought I'd better let you know after recommending it. If you cancel, be sure to do it their way, at spamarrest.com.

They are a fabric cot-style bed that is virtually chewproof and easy to clean. Kuranda beds have been known to get rid of those unsightly calluses so often seen on older dogs. The off-the-ground design gives firm, even support to dogs recovering from surgery, hip dysplasia and arthritis, making them ideal for keeping a dog healthy as well as a bringing one back to good health. One professional calls Kuranda beds "the best idea we have seen in many years of showing and breeding dogs."
