Legacy Interactive is getting ready to release the next game in the Pet Pals series, Pet Pals: New Leash on Life, as a PC download at LegacyGames.com on October 1.
The game lets animal lovers step into the shoes of a veterinarian to diagnose and treat more than 15 different breeds of dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, and exotic animals like iguanas and chinchillas.
GamingEvolution writes: "I got the pleasure of playing a new interactive game for the Nintendo DS from Legacy Interactive; this new game was titled "Pet Pals: New Leash on Life". This game is another title in the educational games lineup that Legacy Interactive has and it joins the ranks of some of their other titles like Emergency Room: Real Life Rescues, and the other Pet Pals games in that they attempt to teach the player what real life people do in certain scenarios and situations. This game will be on the Nintendo DS as well as its newer younger brother the Nintendo DSi. As of right now we are not aware if there are any special features that can take advantage of the features within the DSi. This game can be played by all ages and will be very appealing to any aspiring veterinarians or animal lovers."

Pet Pals: New Leash on Life promises to bring animal lovers a thought-provoking insight into the world of caring for critters.
Players are charged with the responsibly of stepping into the shoes of a vet who must heal pets, nursing them back to health through a number of proceedures. To assist less experienced casual customers hints are available throughout the game.
As with all Pet Pals releases, New Leash on Life is approved by The Humane Society of the United States. A portion of the sales from the DS edition of Pet Pals will provide financial support to the non-profit organisation.
AVault: "Did you know that Peter Ostrum, known better to all as Charlie Bucket from Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, is a veterinarian? That's right; the luckiest kid on Earth left acting immediately after filming was done and turned his attentions to animal husbandry and medicine. I guess some people have such an undeniable attraction to animals that they give up promising acting careers for them. Me, I like video games, so rather than dropping the controller and devoting myself to the animal kingdom, I can pick up Legacy Games' Pet Pals: New Leash on Life, and simulate the Doctor Doolittle experience at home."
