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. [...]

My, is it almost June 26 again already? Friday is of course Take Your Dog To Work Day, or as it’s more commonly known by employers: “National Dip In Productivity Day.” It is estimated that at least 6 million man hours are lost every year as Chocolate Labs chase Miniature Dachshunds around filing cabinets, Wheaten [...]

Note to taxonomists: Californian dogs do not belong to the same species as New York Dogs. To me, getting wet means one thing and one thing only - a $100 grooming bill. If you should see me 30 yards off the coast of Imperial Beach standing knees-a-tremble on a slippery surfboard waiting for an ominous [...]

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 [...]

Looks like Captain Rover’s going to clear that mountain by a whisker!
Calling all pets: put July 14th in your diaries for it’s a very special date. No, it’s not your annual bath. It marks the first flight made by the world’s first pet airline.
The Sun Sentinel is reporting that flights will begin between New York, [...]

The Westminster Kennel Club’s best-in-show has just been won by a ten year old Spaniel - and I’m not at all jealous.
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 [...]

Lassie will be spinning in her grave to see the disgraceful examples set by Hollywood hounds in these, perhaps the most decadent times for dogs since the days of the Roman Empire.
It was only a few decades ago that dogs on the big screen set exemplary examples to young pups everywhere. Whether it was running [...]

I haven’t been this excited since I saw a cloud in the shape of Lassie.
Obviously bored of appearing on towels, mirrors, shrouds, pancakes, tortilla chips, baby’s ultrasound scans, bathroom ceilings and piles of grass cuttings all over the world, the image of Jesus has decided to try something new, by appearing on Roger Bowman’s dog [...]

Pass the Poochie on the left hand side

It a go done, give me the music make me rock in the dance

Providence took another blow today with the release of the SNIF tag - an unfathomably pointless $300 collar-mounted doohickey which allows dog owners with absolutely nothing else to do the opportunity to go online and blow 5 disinterested minutes checking such things as their pooch’s daily activity level and the names of the owners of [...]
