Puppies are a joy to behold, but with that joy comes responsibility. Regardless of what kind of puppy one has, the same general rules apply when caring for a pet. Like people, all puppies have different personalities, and no two are exactly the same. For this reason, owners of new puppies or dogs will have to take time to get to know them, to build trust, and to discover what actually motivates them. Experts explain all the necessary steps to ensure that a puppy grows up to become a healthy, well-behaved, and much-loved addition to a family. NOTE: Bonus material follows main feature.

Molecular biologist Scott Santos and his team at Auburn University are studying an unusual and endangered ecosystem in Hawaii called Anchialine pools. A threatened ecosystem, Anchialine pools are inland lava depressions found near the ocean that feed off fresh water aquifers. Little is known about the creatures and plants that live in these brackish waters, but a number of the lava pools are being destroyed by invasive species and development. With support from the National Science Foundation, Santos and his team captured video and photographs of this unique habitat during a two month field study. He hopes his research will help save the pools before they totally disappear. One of the most famous creatures in the Anchialine pools is a legendary tiny red shrimp.
