About the Author

My name is Jonni Good, and I’ve created this website purely out of my love for dogs. I’ve lived with dogs all my life, and can’t imagine a day without my best canine friend.
I think the local animal shelter is a wonderful place to find a family pet, as long as you know what you’re looking for, and make a calm, considered choice. Choosing a pet simply because you feel sorry for a dog in a cage may not be a good long-term decision. A dog will live with you for a long time, and must fit into your family’s needs and personality. Since I’ve made a few bad choices myself, I decided that it would a good project to put together some information that would help you avoid common adoption mistakes.
This is one of my “fun” websites. My other site “just for fun” is at DrawFluffy.com.
I hope you’ll also see my other websites and books -I’ve written 5 health and fitness books, which are now available online. I’m always looking for the easy way to solve common health problems, by working with our human nature instead of fighting it. I’m happy to say that my books have helped hundreds of people lose weight, get fit, and regain their health:
