The Question of "Complete and Balanced" - By Dr. Ian Billinghurst
What is "complete and balanced"? It's hard to say, but Dr. Billinghurst puts it best by telling us what it doesn't mean!

Charity

The Winnipeg Humane Society: The Winnipeg Humane Society is a registered charity dedicated to protecting animals from suffering and to promoting their welfare and dignity.

Fun and Exercise!

Pudgy Dog: From the Pudgy Dog website: My philosophy is that dogs NEED and CRAVE exercise - much more exercise than they can get being out in a backyard or just going out for a 10 minute poop and pee twice a day.  They need to walk and be dogs. Little or huge, they need to walk. So that's what we do. We walk/run/rollerblade/skate around the beautiful trails and streets of Winnipeg.

For people with a very busy schedule but want to make sure their dogs are cared for, active, and safe (and out of trouble!), this is a great service!
