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 [...]

Old folks love a wedding. And I suppose that once you reach a certain age it doesn’t really matter who’s getting married just so long as you’re invited.
All of which explains this frankly bizarre spectacle at The Riverside Care Center in McKeesport last week.
As I’ve already explained, there’s not much point in dogs getting married. [...]

I literally felt my whiskers curl with outrage when I heard about this, the latest doohickey designed for no other purpose than to inflict unbridled terror upon the dog community.
If this is supposed to be an enhanced interrogation technique then I demand to know if Nancy Pelosi was briefed about it in 2002. Pictures speak [...]

I’d just gotten my slippers on and poured myself a nice glass of vintage port this evening when I came across the news that the 25th annual Yukon Quest International Sled Dog Race has indeed commenced.
Of course I should have been taking part in this 1600km slog myself if it weren’t for the fact that [...]

As reported by the Associated Press yesterday, the U.N. has called an emergency meeting after a dog was spotted sitting happily on a roof in North Dakota, in what must surely have been one of the slowest days for news in world history.
People across the world stopped what they were doing in stunned amazement as [...]

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. The balloons, who obviously had an inflated sense of entitlement, were rendered motionless with fear as the plucky pup pitilessly popped the polychromatic posse [...]

New York dogs were urged to be on their guard yesterday after a brazen snatch in Central Park left an area Bison Frise without a chew toy.
The four-paw discount - which was perpetrated in broad daylight a short distance from the E79th St entrance - was the work of a professional and had probably been [...]

Dogs are being tortured for sport in this country - with the approval and encouragement of the mainstream media. Observe, as proof, this depraved article in The Daily Courier of Arizona yesterday.
Apparently it’s not enough that we should have the abhorrent atrocity of soap-contaminated bathing forced upon us - we should also, according to the [...]

Dogs the world over received a mortal blow today with the announcement of a new line of - I can hardly bring myself to say it - dog soap.
As if it’s not enough that all of our tireless bestinkification efforts are scuppered once a month when humans bring it upon their sadistic selves to [...]

Attaboy! As reported in today’s LA Times, Ruby the bulldog (or is it Bean?) took a grand total of “about two seconds” to figure out that there’s a third dimension - up. Most bulldogs, as their owners will tell you, have trouble coming to terms with the first two, being quite happy to blow raspberries [...]
