Each year The Lost Dogs’ Home’s North Melbourne Shelter receives around 25,000 dogs and cats and a good portion of them arrive at the home as a result of irresponsible pet owners.
Off the back of the thought provoking BBC reality TV series ‘Don’t Blame The Dog’, currently airing on ABC 2, we look at key aspects of being a responsible dog owner.
Read more about the TV program and the second episode of ‘Don’t Blame the Dog’ that was filmed at The Lost Dogs’ Home.
For more information on how to look after your dog, check out The Lost Dogs’ Home guide, ‘Looking after your dog‘.
