There’s a million and one different formulas and theories which purport to convert human years into dog years so to keep things simply I’m just going to go with the popular myth that the ratio is a straight 1 to 7. Many happy returns of the day Max, you wizened old 182 year old goat [...]

Stump, who has probably never even had his own blog, made canine history by being the oldest contestant ever to scoop the esteemed 133 year old prize - beating seven younger dogs by somewhat [...]

Simon the Jack Russel Terrier was hailed as a hero last night after making short work of a gang of nefarious balloons which had taken residence in his owner’s living room.

Soon to be not-President Bush had a stern talk with soon to be not-First Dog Barney yesterday after reports emerged of more chomp-attacks the sour Scottie has administered on anyone within fangshot.
Further to revelations that the nefarious, wild-eyed hound is literally spitting chips at the prospect of having to surrender his White House cushion to [...]

So far it’s all been pretty civil on the Republican front. The election of controversial hope-and-changeist Barack Obama inspired a noble concession speech from John McCain, countless messages of good will from the right-of-center blogosphere - and an encouraging address from George W.
