Some people impulsively obtain purebred dogs, even though they may not be educated about the breed or ready for the commitment that companion animals require. Movies, TV shows, and commercials have caused a jump in the popularity of certain breeds, yet very few potential dog caretakers take the time to investigate the traits and needs of the breed that they are considering.

"Every time Hollywood makes a dog movie, the breed goes to hell," says one caretaker of bouviers des Flandres dogs. A Dalmatian fancier concludes that "the unscrupulous breeders will see there's a profit margin there."6 When there is a surge in demand for a particular breed, puppy mills try to meet that demand. But when the dogs don't turn out to be just like their fictional counterparts, rescue groups and animal shelters become flooded with these breeds.

Conditions don't improve much when the puppies reach pet stores. Dogs who are kept in small cages without exercise, love, or human contact tend to develop undesirable behavior and may bark excessively or become destructive and unsociable. Unlike many humane societies and animal shelters, pet stores do not screen buyers or inspect potential future homes of the dogs they sell. Poor enforcement of humane laws allows shops to continue selling sick animals, although humane societies and police departments sometimes succeed in closing down stores in which severe abuse is uncovered. The bill would still allow pet stores to provide space for animals from nonprofit humane societies and to host adoption events.

It would not affect breeders who are "responsible," meaning they meet with prospective owners and provide the animal with humane living conditions, Bigham said. The change would not affect humane hunting dog, sledding dog or farm animal breeders, she added. Young puppies who survive the unsanitary conditions at puppy mills and endure the grueling transport to pet stores have rarely received the kind of loving human contact that is necessary for them to become suitable companions. Breeders, brokers, and pet stores ensure maximum profits by not spending money for proper food, housing, or veterinary care. The editors are back for their afternoon huddle, and The Cake has outperformed even their high expectations. They're mulling what to put on Sunday's page one and hoping to balance the hard news with a lighter slice of Minnesota life.

Dardarian runs down a possible lineup that includes more Manafort, a debate about zoning for fourplexes, and a local murder. She's looking for a "bright" — the kind of fun story readers love that generates a flood of positive feedback. Pronto Pup, also known as the original corn dog, are hot dogs dipped in specific batter mix as invented in Rockaway Beach, Oregon, and then fried. Named for the speed of the cooking process, they are commonly eaten for meals made at restaurants and by street vendors across the United States. With millions of unwanted dogs and cats dying every year in animal shelters, there is simply no reason for animals to be bred and sold for the pet-store trade. Without these stores, the financial incentive for puppy mills would disappear, and the suffering of these dogs would end.

The best way to find a companion animal is through an animal shelter or a rescue group. That adorable little puppy in the store probably came from a "puppy mill," a breeding kennel that raises dogs in cramped, crude, filthy conditions. Consequently, many puppies are abandoned within weeks or months of their adoption by frustrated buyers—further exacerbating the tragic companion-animal overpopulation crisis.

Data showed intenders want more local watchdog journalism and deep investigative reporting specific to Minnesota, along with positive local news, service journalism , and sports coverage. This data helped justify a yearlong project finding Minnesota rape cases were improperly investigated. It led the newsroom to produce more feel-good stories, like a recent one on a hospice nurse who unwinds on the luge. The paper also boosted coverage of the Vikings, especially in the two hours just after the game when appetite for its NFL content is highest. Angel's Pet World now conducts regular adoption events through nonprofits such as Lucky Paws Midwest and Coco's Heart Dog Rescue, among others.

Duratti said that at first rescue centers were wary of the store because it used to sell dogs from puppy mills, but she is much happier now that she made the change, even though it was difficult. Duratti, who owns Angel's Pet World in Hudson, Wis., said the store stopped selling puppies in 2011. When sales first started eight years earlier, Duratti said, she went to the puppy mills with a veterinarian and they were both satisfied with the dogs and their health.

But things started to change as the puppy mill started to breed more puppies. Many of the animals she received were sick with kennel cough, Giardia or genetic issues. Pet-store owner Angel Duratti used to sell puppies at her store, some of which were sick or had genetic defects. Customers would call days after buying a puppy and say the illness was so severe the animal needed to be put down. It's almost a toss-up between Dana Swindler and Greg Walsh, owners of MartinPatrick3, and their posh poodles , but we're crowning the human duo the official cheerleaders of NoLo.

Since opening the design studio–meets–retail concept in 2001, they've grown it into a one-stop urban department store spanning more than 20,000 square feet. Consider the store's set of stone arches the neighborhood's north star. Plant and garden gear sales soared in 2020 as quarantiners brought life into their homes and yards.

And for 136-year-old Bachman's , this wasn't the first pandemic rodeo, and it met the challenge head—and green thumb—on.

Downtown lunch crowds largely vamoosed this year, terrifying food truckers. But when basically all food became mobile, food trucks reclaimed their OG status as something to get out and discover. Sure, everyone loved the new Nashville Coop truck, with its hot chickie tendies, and Animales BBQ defined smoky meat excellence from a trailer. But the real champ was Soul Lao, which left the St. Paul sweet spots and headed out to Eden Prairie and Savage, bringing Laotian flavors of khao soi noodle soup and crispy pork belly to the neighborhoods where people were hunkering down. 2020 was always going to be a challenging year for First Ave. owner Dayna Frank.

Live Nation was making a big local play with the new Fillmore. Simultaneously, the bonding of her long-sought north Minneapolis outdoor amphitheater was before the state legislature. Frank stepped up and became a national leader—she enlisted bipartisan support for the $15 billion Save Our Stages Act, which passed in the second stimulus bill and will help local arts organizations like hers survive all over the country. Today, the Pronto Pup brand reflects both the specific type of batter used for the first corn dogs and the shared brand name of restaurants who use the batter manufactured by The Pronto Pup Company based in Portland, Oregon.

Outside of Oregon, where they were invented, Pronto Pups are a common food found in county fairs throughout Minnesota, Nebraska, Iowa, and North and South Dakota. Some differ from the original by using a bratwurst instead of a hot dog as the sausage. The Seventh Street Truck bar is in an entertainment district just south of the Xcel Energy Center, where the NHL's Minnesota Wild play. Linders said he doesn't recall any recent previous calls for police service to Seventh Street Truck Park bar. The woman in her 20s who was killed is the 32nd homicide victim in the city so far this year, the Star Tribune reported.

All of the other people who were shot are expected to survive, police said in a statement. The fact that my husband and I now worked at home seemed to add to his angst; perhaps because we were there constantly, he grew extremely protective of the house. He roared through the window at dogs passing by — something he had never done before — and barked at any walker who paused in front of our yard. Mail carrier, UPS person, FedEx guy, beware — just the slam of a delivery van door would set him off. Puppies are torn away from their mothers and sold to brokers who pack them into crates for transport and resale to pet stores.

In 2017, the newspaper also launched a four-page "Prep Extra" section that wraps the front of its sports section about 20 times from August to May, giving local high school athletes the kind of splashy coverage usually reserved for the Vikings.

It attracts exclusive sponsors, including the regional institution Frandsen Bank & Trust, St. Paul-based Pearson's Candy Company, and Minneapolis-based Luther Automotive. Together they've paid upward of $600,000 since the August 2017 launch for sponsorship in print, online, and at a new Star Tribune awards event honoring top high-school athletes.

"They have a fenced yard with bike and skateboard ramps where she can run up and down. She just does better in a jock environment, and our two dogs get along better at night if they spend the day away from each other." According to the Humane Society, puppy mills breed dogs for profit, often keeping the animals in unsanitary and inhumane conditions. There are about 10,000 active puppy mills in the United States, according to the Humane Society.

At the House hearing Tuesday, opponents of the bills said that banning dog or cat sales will financially affect pet stores, while advocates argue that profits can still be made with the sale of toys, food and other pet necessities. In an effort to encourage other pet stores to do the same, Minnesota legislators are pushing two bills through the House and Senate that effectively ban the sale of dogs and cats from commercial pet stores. Advocates hope that the change will reduce the demand for puppy and kitten mills. Bills would ban sale of dogs, cats at pet stores to fight puppy, kitten mills. Wiese supervised doctoral students in a project that gave electronic cats to cognitively impaired participants who attend an adult day program. Using standardized scales, researchers surveyed the participants three times over 12 weeks to track their quality of life.

Animatronic pets, such as this dog, can make lifelike sounds and motions. They offer an easy-care alternative to live animal companions. Schmidt's Kitty is a robotic pet, one of a new breed of electronic cats and dogs that can pant, yawn, whine and wag; some even have an audible heartbeat. They have been designed specifically for older people, especially those with Alzheimer's disease or other forms of dementia. The lifelike animals can be soothing and can provide much needed companionship or a distraction from dislocation or pain. When you stroke a dog's fur, your heart rate lowers and your blood pressure drops.

You also release serotonin and dopamine, two neurochemicals that contribute to a sense of well-being. One research study concluded that people performing stressful tasks managed them with more equanimity in the presence of a dog; another study confirmed that dogs ease tension between spouses.

We strolled Eloise Butler Wildflower Garden, we biked all the paths so hard, and then we came back and skijored, discovered the iceman, and snowshoed until we couldn't feel our toes. Post-thaw, we'll do it all again, including the golf courses, the swim beach, the archery range, the disc golf course, and the picnic spots. Six months into the pandemic, St. Paul Mayor Melvin Carter had an idea for how to help ease the pain for the city's low-income families.

Taking a cue from friend and former Stockton, California, mayor Michael Tubbs, who implemented something similar in 2019, Carter proposed guaranteeing $500 monthly to 150 low-income families for 18 months, and the city council voted unanimously to approve his idea. The funding to launch St. Paul's guaranteed-income pilot came via $300,000 in CARES Act funds, but the bulk of the $1.5 million will come from philanthropy. During a summer like no other, marked by the pressures of the pandemic and the death of George Floyd, boarded-up businesses became walls of vibrant color as local artists drew on their own lived experiences to give voice to the moment. "My heart breaks for the woman who was killed, her loved ones and everyone else who was in that bar this morning," St. Paul Chief of Police Todd Axtell said in the statement.

After obtaining the search warrant, Perea, Hall and Peterson "forcibly held and constrained" Sena while his blood was drawn, with Hall threatening to put his knee on Sena's neck to stop him from resisting the blood draw, according to the complaint. CPD spokesman Alex Farkas said the department could not comment on pending litigation. Requests for comment from Senior Assistant Attorney General Timothy Miller, who is representing the officers, and Craig Silva and Amy Iberlin, attorneys representing the city of Cheyenne, were not returned in time for this story.

Without a valid search warrant, the involuntary blood draw is considered unreasonable search and seizure based on clearly established law, the complaint says. On March 30, 2020, Cheyenne Municipal Court Judge Tony Ross ordered the resulting blood draw be suppressed as evidence in Sena's DUI case, according to court documents.
