Tips for
adopting the best shelter dog
By
Victoria Stilwell,
Special to CNN
June 11, 2011 10:45 p.m. EDT
Editor's note:
Victoria Stilwell hosts
"It's
Me or the Dog" on Animal
Planet and is the
founder of
Victoria Stilwell Positively
Dog Training,
both of which advocate
positive reinforcement
during training.
CNN)
-- The shelter dog is often
perceived as unpredictable
and inferior to one that is
bought from a pricey breeder
or a pet store. The thought
of giving a home to a dog
with an unknown history also
puts many people off. But
while some dogs are
relinquished to shelters
because of problem behavior,
most are surrendered because
of a change in the family
situation.
Shelters
can be overwhelming places
to visit, so give yourself
time when going through the
adoption process and make
decisions with your head as
well as your heart.
Because stress levels can be
high in such an environment,
dogs tend to exhibit
behavior that does not
reflect their true
personality. Don't be put
off by a dog that stays at
the back of the kennel too
tired or nervous to greet
you, or by the dog that
leaps at the kennel door
like a lunatic as you walk
past. Remember these dogs
may behave very differently
once out of confinement.

Why Are Traffic Laws Enforced?
By Joel Bolton, Project Manager, Gulf States Regional
Center for Public Safety Innovation, Natchitoches,
Louisiana
There are
few activities in which a law enforcement officer can
engage that have the same level of positive impact as
increasing safety belt use rates through enforcement and
education, removing impaired drivers from the streets
before they are involved in crashes, or reducing the
incidence of dangerous speed violations.

Why Do Police Pick
Up Garage Sale Signs?
Under the direction of the City
Council, the City of Robinson is dedicated to making Robinson a
beautiful place to live. In helping to accomplishing this, the Robinson
Police Department is tasked with enforcing the City's ordinances which
include enforcing the garage sale sign ordinance. This effectively helps
prevent the proliferation of garage sale signs placed improperly in
Robinson.
Robinson recognizes the need for these signs. T hree
reasons to regulate garage sale signs are to preserve and improve the
visual quality of Robinson, to eliminate hazards to pedestrians and
motorists brought about by the distraction of signs, and to ensure
compatibility with adjacent and surrounding areas.
When garage sale signs are posted illegally, the
police department will remove signs that are not in compliance with the
Code of Ordinances. Removed garage sale signs can be recovered at the
police department within 24 hours of their being removed.
